One of my colleagues sent out a link to this very funny video that almost looks plausible. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NufHsmITjM
This one is pretty good too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&v=ueS7rbHqo_k
The absolute best value in music is now available wherever you need it to be!
Microsoft now allows you to access your Xbox Music from any browser. The site looks almost exactly like the new Windows Store version. (I don’t know when I would use the web version myself as I will no doubt continue to use Xbox Music on my PCs, Xbox, and HTC phone.)
Like I’ve said before, the Xbox Music Pass is the really great deal here. For $9.99 a month or $99.90 a year, you get unlimited access to the entire Xbox music library. You can get a 30 day free trial at http://music.xbox.com.
Do you have an Xbox Music Pass? What features would you like to see added to Xbox Music?

The IllumiRoom has got to be the coolest thing at CES – hands down! I’ll definitely keep an eye on this. Microsoft Research has a bunch of great stuff and I highly recommend keeping an eye on what they are doing. (I still like Pex and I’d love to see that built into the next version of Visual Studio.) So, this appears to just be today’s Kinect, but with an associated projector.
This video is amazing and I just wanted to call out what I saw as some highlights:
It looks like MS research will release more info this Spring at ACM CHI 2013.
I’ve been a HUGE fan of the Assassin’s Creed series since the beginning! While I love the action + role-playing concepts, the backdrop of a massive, history-spanning conspiracy involving religious groups, governments, and “aliens” is just a perfect mix for me.
Assassin’s Creed III will be available at the end of October and it looks to be Ubisoft’s most ambitious venture to date. (Official site).
The DLC content of the previous series hasn’t been especially compelling to me. I haven’t cared much for the multiplayer aspects of the game and the other DLC seems like just really small missions and don’t add much story. I have to say I’m really intrigued about this new announcement though. An alternative where it seems “absolute power corrupts absolutely”. After turning back the most powerful nation on the planet, General Washington sets himself up as King!

It’s been about seven years since I purchased my last gaming computer. (I bought a nice Sony Vaio about two years ago, but I bought it for presentations mostly because laptops just aren’t that great for gaming.) Today, I thought I’d share the specs on my new machine. I still buy most of my games on the XBox 360, but you just can’t beat a desktop PC for the really awesome graphics! What are you playing on?
My wish list for future upgrades includes
Any suggestions?
Here’s a quick update on what I’m playing too:
