Posted by guycocker in gamespot, video games on July 14, 2008
Here are some videos that I’ve been posting on the GameSpot E3 blog. It’s going to get pretty crazy tomorrow, so I’m making the most of it while I can!
E3 2008!
Posted by guycocker in gamespot, video games on July 13, 2008
Just a quick note to say that I’m now in Los Angeles for this year’s E3! I’ll be writing plenty of stuff for GameSpot over the coming week, so keep an eye on my profile, follow my Twitter feed or just head over to the main GameSpot E3 page for all the info.
Boxee for Mac
Tipped off by a post on Lifehacker, I downloaded a new piece of software called Boxee for the Mac yesterday. Currently in alpha, the project is essentially a new frontend for Xbox Media Center, only with added social interaction. This means that you can see what your friends think about films/albums/TV shows, while you can broadcast your recommendations over services such as Twitter.
As media centers become more and more common in the home, Boxee offers a glimpse at the future of media consumption and sharing. Checking out trailers of my friends’ favourite films, listening to my last.fm radio stream and watching Revision3 shows from one single interface is really powerful, and while Boxee is still young and relatively buggy, it’s definitely something I’ll be keeping an eye on.

Time for another Wii Fit update now, and after a few days travelling the world and having to play other games, I’m back on it again. Check out the video below and then track GameSpot editors’ progress on the main Wii Fit blog.
My first GameSpot Video Review
Posted by guycocker in gamespot, video games on June 5, 2008
My first video review has just gone up on GameSpot, for GRID from Codemasters! We’re just getting into the swing of doing video reviews — sending HD footage between international teams is a bit of a nightmare — but I really enjoyed doing it. The game itself is also well worth checking out, so read the review here.
