My 360!  It’s back in Tex-ass now, after floating around the Midwest for the better part of three weeks.  Apparently they fixed it, shipped it here, tried to deliver it (I wasn’t there to pick it up – E3), tried again, couldn’t find the address, sat on it for a week, and sent it back to Texas.  Only then did someone try to contact me, a nice lady from Microsoft, explaining the sad story.

It’s puzzling, how one guy could find my place, but not the other.  I mean, it’s not like I live in the middle of a suburban maze, or in the ghetto of Lawrence’s east side.  Making sure that three times is a charm, the M$ lady checked and double-checked my address.

I would’ve pursued my console more actively, if it weren’t finals time last week.  Honestly, the last thing I needed then was my 360 back, much less dealing with UPS.  But, it’s on the way, and I intend to have Black unwrapped and waiting for it. 

In the game, motherfuckers.

BreakmanX (AKA Matthew Nyquist) founded BreakmanX.com in 2001 after having small video game websites since around 1996. Things really took off in September of 2002 when he started The Game Show with Richie. BreakmanX.com quickly developed a tight knit community of gamers as the crew covered major industry events and interviewed top industry talent. Break later went to the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts to get his MFA in Film and TV Production. He worked in Hollywood for seven years with people like Fred Roos (The Godfather Trilogy, Star Wars) and Dane Davis (The Matrix). He's now gone full circle and returned to Kansas to write and direct a feature film (EyesOpenMovie.com), relaunch The Game Show (BreakmanX.com), and spend his day time hours as an tenured Associate Professor.
