The Blog for the Sports Gamer Three guys who love Sports Gaming rant and rave about various stuff.

Wow…

So, I just got back to my room in Vegas after the days events finished up.  Conferences really suck, especially if you go by yourself.  I know my wife would have been bored off her butt all day while I was in sessions, but at least we would have been able to attend the receptions together.   Oh, well.. perhaps tomorrow will be a more interesting day.

- One of the most interesting things on the trip thus far was the ability to listen to the air-traffic chatter on the plane.  Seriously, as a geek, you must do this at least once.  It's amazing to hear the air-traffic controllers telling all of the planes what to do so that they don't collide into one another... it's absolutely fascinating.

- My video card in my laptop shit-the-bed today, so when I get back I'll have get that replaced.  It's a big bummer, because I was hoping that I would have been able to get a bit of time in on Half Life - Episode 2, but I guess I'm going to be stuck with Vegas related activities... bummer.

- Is it sad that I wish that I was at home playing MLB Power Pros?  Just asking....

- One of the stations at the reception tonight had Wii Tennis on display... the funny thing was that everyone that stopped to play really stunk.  This is a really big geek conference and it was surprising to me that the IT geek didn't seem to translate to the gaming geek.  I should have just stood at that booth and challenged people to beat me.  It would have been an heck of a lot more entertaining than drinking for the night.

More from Vegas later today...
