A quick intro...

Hello everyone,
This is Ted, I work with a PR firm representing Microsoft Game Studios for PC and Xbox products. I'm going to be posting Xbox and MGS news items in this forum from time to time, so I figured it best to come clean as to who I was before starting. For those concerned, yes, I did clear this with DVDtalk management beforehand, so please don't worry that I'm trying to sneak in under Geoff's radar <grin>

I promise I'm just going to be here to post news updates that might interest you as gamers. No ten page press releases or "we're the best!" stuff. Just brief snippets from our latest news, and if you're interested in more info, you can always post requesting more.

Also, I'm going to stay away from giving opinion on anything, since who's going to believe the PR guy anyhow :-)

If you have questions about some MS titles, ask me, and if I can answer them, I'll certainly try. Can I guarantee an answer, no, but I can try to find answers.

Thanks

Oh, my Live Gamertag is Calico, and I'm currently running a couple Links 2k4 tourneys on XSN, along with playing a lot of Rainbow Six 3 and PGR2. So feel free to add me to your friends list, I'm only about average, so playing against me is a great way to pad your stats.

E3 is still under the cloak of super-secret planning, which is another way of saying...I really don't know yet as I'm workin' some other projects.

As for giveaways and such with DVDtalk, assuming DVDtalk management is interested, we're always interested. We don't have anything new coming for a teeny bit, but when it does, this would certainly be the place to hold a contest now, wouldn't it :-)

Though I do love Top spin, I'm afraid to play that game on live any more, I'm *that bad* at it. When your ranking starts in the 25k range and never moves, you get a bit depressed.

I also play a good bit of Amped 2 for those interested. When I say "good bit" I by no means mean I'm good, I just love to play it. Though I do throw out a mean switch rodeo on the halfpipes...

I think you'll find us more than happy to wear any free shirts, etc that may have a logo slapped all over them. Free advertising for you, free shirts for us

Obviously I'm sure many of us would be willing to sacrifice our hard to come by time to beta test games, etc. You'll find that we are givers around here
