I'm still here but my Epinions time is definitely limited. Since my last update my son, Mason Anthony, was born. He's now almost six months old. I haven't forgotten my Epinion buddies, I'll be poking my head in here every once and a while. I'll eventually post something!

January 19th, 2005

I tip my hat to you Epinionators who are able to work full time, have kids, spend time with their families, and still have time to post reviews here. I thought everything would settle down after I started my new job, but work (and playing video games) has sucked up a lot of my time, effectively reducing my Epinions time. I still read and rate those of you who are on my alert list, but I just haven't had a chance to pound out a review lately. I've been pretty involved with my Video Game Blog (the link is above) so check that out if you get a chance. In the meantime, I've got a few irons in the "review fire" so hopefully I'll be able to get back to activity here. For a look at what I'm working on (and a reminder to myself), here's my short list:
  • Apple iPod Mini
  • Resident Evil 4 (If you play video games, you must play this game)
  • Halo 2
  • Burnout 3
  • My new Dell Laptop
  • Metroid Prime 2
  • Viewtiful Joe 2
It's short for now, but I will post some reviews, I promise!

October 14th, 2004

Hey, I can't believe it's been two months since a review has been posted. I promise something by the end of the month! I'm still trying to keep up on my reading and rating. I hope to be more active soon. (hmm, I seem to have said that a couple months ago)

August 2nd, 2004

Man, time has flown. I finally posted something new here, just my answers to spongebob_man1's W/O. Go check it out! I'll be on with more reviews soon!

July 5th, 2004

Yes, I am still reading (and rating) all my back log of email alerts, so I am still around. I've also got a laundry list of reviews in various states of completion to finish and post. I also noticed a new list of Gamecube games finally added to the database, so I'll be posting some game reviews soon, too. If you want to check out my new gaming page, go on over to: ButtonMashing.com. It's a work in progress, but it's a start.

April 21st, 2004

I haven't been posting as much as I have in the past, I've been busy with my new job and playing Neocron, but I'm still here. I still rate the people on my alert list and I hope to be more active now that things are starting to calm down with my job.

Bargain Bin Write-off!

I am hosting a write-off called the "Bargain Bin W/O". The idea is to review a video game (PC or console) that you found in the "Bargain Bin" (or at a bargain bin price) and tell us if it was a sleeper or if it deserved to stay in the bargain bin. If you're interested in participating, leave me a comment and I'll add you to the list.

Participants
krial - Majesty Gold Edition (PC)
kjell1979 - Tecmo Bowl (NES)
DrDevience - hopefully something!
StarSoldier1 - Gunstar Heroes (Sega Genesis)
tdswift89 - Yar's Revenge (GBC)
awoolcott - ESPN Final Round Golf (GBA)
Pyanfar - Rune (maybe?)
JiggyJay - Freekstyle (PS2)
Horhay - Backstreet Billiards (PS)
carl_lazarevic - Deus Ex (PC)
kelly60 - Crystal Key (PC)

I got a job!! I am very excited that the past 5 years I spent in school weren't in vain. I start in March so I imagine my time here will be shortened but I'm not planning on leaving right now. I'm just happy I have a real job!

December 1st, 2003

Okay, I'm gearing up to post a bunch of new reviews. They little break was nice, but I answered the call to return. Hopefully I'll be a little more constant on writing reviews. We'll see.

September 15th, 2003

I haven't written anything lately, I'm still reading and rating pieces that interest me, but I'm just taking a little break from the writing. I've started a bunch of reviews, I am just currently being lazy. I'll add some new stuff sooner or later. I have been working on compiling a complete list of my reviews and listing some personal statistics, so I should have those finished soon. Also, please check out Moose's profile page, he lost a bet and I wanted everyone to see what a huge Buckeye fan he is!

March 19th, 2003

I am very close to putting the finishing touches on my thesis, I have a lot of reviews I would like to write, so as soon as I wrap up school stuff I should be able to get some writing done. I'll be back soon enough!

February 17th, 2003

My wife recently (Feb. 10) gave birth to our daughter, Corinne Mae so I have obviously been occupied with things other than epinions. My thesis defense is in three weeks so I anticipate things to calm down after that. I'm just enjoying being a Dad.

December 19th, 2002

With the due date of my Thesis being postponed I finally have some time to write some reviews and get caught up with my back log of email notifications. Hopefully I'll get most everything on before I have to bear down and get back to Thesis writing.

November 6th, 2002

I'm super busy working on and writing my Master's Thesis. I'm so close I can taste it! I haven't written anything lately but I have a list of topics I want to review so sooner or later I'll have some new stuff up. For now I'm just reading other's writings when I take a break from my research.
