In which we discuss crony capitalism in Baltimore zoning legislation. Nah, we talk about what we’re playing.

So, I’ve already talked a bit about Assassin’s Creed in my comic last week. This game has pretty much taken over my life over the last few days.

We talk Halo 3, Zelda: The Phantom Hourglass, and how Nadine is racist against anime(?). Plus, games we are looking forward to.

I played it at X07 last week, but I’m off on vacation in Ireland right now and haven’t had any time to get it up on the site… until now.

We got a look at some stuff at Microsoft’s fall press event today: Assassin’s Creed, Mass Effect, Halo 3. I’ll be writing ‘em up imminently; I hope to have Halo 3 impressions later today.
