I am the God of War

Now that I'm beginning to shift to be a more portable worker (like a laptop, but not) I'm finding I can actually update my blog at work. Which is cool. So less of those times when I don't say anything for days at a time as this will be a more effective use of my lunch times rather than merely being given more work to do. 

Anyway, as I arrived in the office today, I saw a long box on my desk.

I wondered what it would be since I knew of no review items that should be coming in.

And when I opened it, I saw it and knew instantly.

 

 

Logan at Kotaku (who linked to me last week) actually beat me to it. He probably has an earlier lunch than I do… lol.

Anyway, inside of the nicely labeled box that instantly told those of us who knew their shit what it was was…

An action figure! Sweet… and it's by NECA, the people responsible for the awesome Hitchhiker's Guide movie toys which I never grabbed.

*tear* :(

But check out his face!

Yeah! Grrr! Mean, and stuff!

And it came with a press pack and a game and even a pop-up bit!

Of course, this is big. If you've been looking forward to some of the bigger games this year, you know that the new God of War for the PSP is certainly one of the bigger games so I had to change the word board in the studio…

…and then set up the video camera, component cables, audio, and started to get into capturing video when…

…yeah. The PSP broke.

Damn joystick piece. What the hell am I supposed to do with a joystick that only works in the up command and makes my character just constantly run into walls?

Is this God of Walls? No! This is God of War!

*sigh*

Maybe I'll grab this action figure God-guy and put him in one of my home made Weighted Companion Cubes to see if he's strong enough to get out.
