    The Server That Ate Friday

    Re: Friday seems shorter somehow

    It's always a lovely day when you get to watch timely coverage become less and less timely by the hour. The servers were on the blink for a large chunk of this afternoon as I sat in front of my PC and refreshed over and over and over again. Finally somewhere between 4 and 5PM Crecentral time the server gremlins went out for coffee and the snipers we posted took care of the rest. I don't know about you guys, but it's been a very busy week in the lonely Kotaku Tower, but I take comfort in the fact that it is my weekend now, and TGS lasts until Sunday. Then Monday morning I hop a flight to New York City (where they make the good salsa) to cover the Halo 3 launch event. For now, two days of sleep.

    What you missed:
    Resident Evil: Extinction Is Out! FLY HOME NOW!
    Yakuza 2 Heads Stateside
    Snakes On A Dojo
    Halo 3 Pirated The Hell Out Of
    Capcom Mobilizes Several Awesome Franchises
    And Of Course, MGS4 Is A Flop

    From Kotaku Tower this is Michael Fahey, signing off.
