I'd pretend I was writing this live, but the fact is I'm probably deep in some drugged sleep in a home far from the spark of Internet connectivity as you read this. This will be my last post for three weeks or so.

I plan on spending that time relaxing, reading something my wife calls "books," drinking in Sydney and not swimming in the shark-infested waters no matter how many times my Aussie relatives try to convince me to surf with them.

I will be posting Kotaku items for my last week in Oz, sometime around the beginning of October. Until then enjoy the other Brian's posts. I'd call him a cheap Japanese knock-off, but then he'd probably kick my ass, so I'm going to keep my mouth shut.

Make sure you track his live Tokyo Game Show coverage, I'm sure it will rock supreme.
