It’s been pretty warm here this week. Pulled out the air conditioners and balanced them precariously out of various windows. I’ve always been more of a winter person. I live in New England, I love New England winters. Tried living further south for a year, and couldn’t stand it. My theory is, you can always put more stuff on to get warmer, but when you’re hot, there’s only so much you can take off.

Hitman: Blood Money is pretty good. I was worried about some things after playing the demo, as you may recall, but none of them carry over to the full version of the game. I haven’t gotten much time to really sit down with it, but it definitely seems reminiscent of the first two titles, which I really enjoyed. Nice to see the franchise recover from the third installement.

Seems like we’re coming up on a bit of a dry spell, though. It happens once a year or so, and this year it looks like the summer is going to be pretty thin, as far as excellent new releases. Then we’ll get slammed with games faster than we can play them come fall.

Though there’s always the Savage 2 beta, which is scheduled to start July 31st. They’re about to start a trivia contest to give away some free swag. Check it out.
