The Hangout: Lee & Strelok26, sittin' in a tree, K I S S I N G.

It varies, actually. Like, for the One Piece game, it's coming from Play-Asia, not Bandai Namco. But we DO get games from publishers in advance, too. It just depends on the game, really.

And you got this job by someone hitting a website the same day you published it? Killer!

[Sprung]

Woke up about an hour ago and I'm frezing my ass off. I went to sleep all sweaty and now I'm nasty andgritty feeling. Gonna take a shower soon.

Late night sexing?

That is pretty sweet actually. Is the pay good?

Haha, yeah, pretty much happened out of nowhere. Still, I ain't complaining. Free games for doing something I would normally be doing anyway, AND a chance for the stuff I write to get read by a lot of people? Hell yes.

(Not to mention the possibility of getting into E3. )

No pay, actually. Unless you count the free games, and the chance for the stuff I write to get read by a lot of people. That alone is worth it.

lol I wish. I was cutting trees and shit down and dragging them to a bigass pile of fire so I could clear out the remains of an old storage shed that had gone to shit. It was the hardest 4 hours Ive felt in a long time.

E3 alone would be enough

I talked with a guy that works at my local Gamestop about E3 last year. He was chosen by the company to be the designated GS employee from the region to go to E3. He was telling me about the Wii and Metroid, and how the controller was so much better than he had expected.

$10 says you get poison ivy

Damn that's badass. You sir are lucky.

Yeah, I've been hearing nothing but praise about MP3's controls. I doubt I'll get to review that one, but I really want to play it.

I might have. I know to the right a bit I'd get it for sure... but I gotta get rid of that too.

I can't imagine getting to play a game over a year before it comes to retail. For a GS employee, that has to make [dealing with 10 year old brats who's parents get mad when then buy GTA for the kid and see tits] worth it

Haha, yeah, that's about the ONLY thing that would make a job like that worthwhile. Everyone always talks about how awesome it'd be to work at a game store, but from the sounds of it, it's not all it's made out to be.

Also, I've been playing a lot of DoA2 LE lately. Kasumi's white outfit > all.

Picked up a shirt while I was in Gatlinburg that says "What happens in the mushroom kingdom stays in the mushroom kindgom" and has SMB baddies on it

Absolutely!
