Don’t Turn Supreme Commander Into Mid-Level Commander!

June 2, 2009

Shit. Supreme Commander 2 looks like Demigod. The leaked screenshot may look cool, but look at the angle. It’s almost a Diablo-style view. That might not worry me on it’s own, since you can get fairly low-to-the-ground screenshots in Supreme anyway, but look at the map. It’s urban combat, with troops meeting at a chokepoint. [...]

I am Simon (but not YOUR Simon)

December 2, 2008

So I finally upgraded my Xbox to the new Xbox experience. Of course, the first thing I did was create my avatar. I was trying to make it as close to reality as possible because I’ve seen some people that bear an uncanny resemblance to their avatar. (According to Dennis, I failed– my hair is [...]

Dennis and I went skydiving. It was awesome. Maybe I’ll get more detailed later. Or maybe not.

I don’t like blogging!

September 25, 2008

So why do I have a blog? It’s not fun to write about things that only I care about. I’m not really using it as a diary because it’s completely public. So what the hell? I don’t know. I’m getting tired of this thing. I really just wanted to own the domain “BryanSimonson.com”. I am [...]

At loss for words

August 27, 2008

I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing many moments of clarity this year. Sometimes those moments are so deep and overwhelming that I can’t really put them into words. Luckily there’s artists out there for that. These words no doubt mean something different to me than to anybody else reading them at this very moment. Suffice [...]

I’m not a lazy bum any more.

July 26, 2008

That’s right. I have been for awhile. Since about May 16th, my last day at iFLOOR. But those days are now over. I decided that jobs weren’t only for suckers after all. Starting (I think) next Wednesday, I will be working for Microsoft, as a contractor. Have you ever heard of Live.com? No? Well you [...]

Good times

July 10, 2008

Today (technically yesterday) was a pretty good day. I skipped the gym because I felt mildly sneezy, but everything else was pretty cool. I interviewed for a part-time job doing IT admin stuff, and I think I did pretty well. They asked me back for a second interview tomorrow. That’s good because the company seems [...]

Just finished my homework

July 8, 2008

Who are you, and why do you care? You’re me (because I get no other traffic), and you don’t care for that reason. Just had to clarify that point before going any further. Yeah, I just did a bunch of quadratic equations, and I’m feeling pretty proud of myself. Sure, it’s a review of Algebra [...]
