TGR-Net: The Rebirth
by Sean on May.06, 2012, under Website News
So, now that we’ve come up with a fancy reboot title… all we need is a crazy cast? Nah, still just me.
But I did want to give a little bit of an explanation for my ‘absence’ here… these past weeks.
Now let’s start this with me admitting to being a typical fat nerd… the reason I admit this is because it’s a pretty big factor in what has happened here. I was BADLY out of shape, and I’m still out of shape… so when, about 2 months ago, I got a fairly physical job(involving a lot of moderately heavy lifting, a fair bit of walking, dragging, moving, etc.)… it hit me completely by surprise. I have been completely dead tired nearly every evening for the past 2 months. To add to that, I’ve been dealing with some pretty rough times at home – marital issues, family issues, and others. When exhausted to the extent that I’ve been, those types of issues tend to take any drive out of you. And to just drive the nail into the coffin, so to speak, I’ve injured myself several times since I started this job, ranging from a huge cut in my index finger to hitting my shin enough to give me a bruise the size of a toonie on my leg, to wrenching my shoulder badly enough that I could barely keep my arm straight to type.
Now, I want to apologize, because none of this should have meant I did my fans such a disservice as not writing for you guys, but it did. I tried to write, but nothing came out. I think I’m starting to get used to the job, and the family and marital issues are starting to clear up, and most of my injuries are gone… so I’m trying to get back into the swing of things. I can’t promise you a deluge of articles… but I can promise you that I’ll do my best to get you some more quality content – because I’ve missed writing for those of you who read this and I hope you’ve missed reading it. I have a few pieces I’m working on, and a few ideas for some other articles that will hopefully take shape soon… so please, be patient with me. I’m working on it! I promise!
Thank you,
- Sean ‘Seluhir’ Engel
Highlights – May 2012
by Sean on May.06, 2012, under Previews
So, since I missed the end of the month on this one, I wanted to take a minute to quickly give you guys a look into what I’m most interested in this fine month of may. Why is it a fine month, you ask? Well, to be quite blunt, because we have two of the biggest game releases of the year coming this month, and several other interesting titles.
Revisiting: Journey
by Sean on Apr.20, 2012, under Features
I know it’s only been a few weeks since Journey made it’s way into our homes and our hearts, but after having a particularly frustrating morning and early afternoon with Mass Effect 3′s multiplayer(constant disconnects, trolls with mics for allies, among other horrible things) I decided to relax and calm down by spending a little bit of time revisiting Journey.
