I'm Lost....

It has been over three months since the exciting season finale to Lost. With the new Fall lineup of shows starting soon, I feel a little, well, Lost without Lost. I know it will be back in February, but that will be almost 9 months since the season finale aired. Because of the long overlay, I have begun re-watching the first season. My hope is to make it through the first three seasons by February and so far I'm on track. It is very interesting as you notice different things this time around. I don't really want to give away spoilers, but things like when Ethan shows up for the first time don't go unnoticed now. Most of what I have noticed in season one has been foreshadowing, which is cool to see that they are still on the same path three years later.

New Poll

Since Blogger has added a new poll feature I have decided to test it out. You will notice on the right nav-bar there is a poll about upcoming video game releases. Take a second and let me know what you think.

More on BioShock

Well it is official, the critics love BioShock. I was checking out Metacritic today and BioShock for the Xbox 360 has a metascore of 97 based on 42 reviews. That is the highest rated next-gen game to date. Now for me it isn't totally surprising. I follow the games industry fairly close and everything I knew about this game leading up to it's release indicated it would be impressive. But this impressive is a surprise. This is the kind of feedback you would expect from Halo 3 or GTA IV, but BioShock? How many people who aren't fans of the System Shock games or that aren't shooter fans even knew this game existed before now? Probably not very many. Great review scores don't necessarily translate into great sales figures though. It will be interesting to see what the overall sales for August look like.
