The Medic class from Team Fortress 2, developed by Valve Software and published by Electronic Arts
On our way back from the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show
in Las Vegas, the Level Up staff contracted something--no, not that, or
that, or that--and we've been laid out for the count. So no, we
will not be giving you our post-game analysis of Steve Jobs' Macworld
presentation, which conveniently left out something near and dear to
Sony's heart: Blu-Ray drives for Mac desktops and laptops. (In fact,
wasn't the whole point of Mr. One More Thing that disc drives and
recorded media are so last millennium?) You won't get our Progress Bar
assessment of the games that we saw at Ubisoft's New York City
showcase, including Lost: Via Domus, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2,
Tom Clancy's EndWar and Far Cry 2. (We're really glad we saw Ubi's
lineup, but in retrospect, leaving the apartment today was a very bad
idea.) And unfortunately, Part II of our two-part Q&A with Bungie
writing director Joseph Staten will have to wait until another day.
(Though we did give you the juiciest tidbit yesterday, which others seem to be slowly picking up on.) No, we'll be conserving our energy to bang out our next American Geek column,
which closes later today. But consider both of today's posts--written
and published while close to death's door (we kid, we kid)--as evidence
of our deep and abiding affection for you, our Dear Readers.
