Chris Kirby's Inner Monolog

  • Spore lives!!...for the Nintendo Wii

    In an interview with The Guardian, Will Wright confirms that Spore, the god game dealing with species evolution, is being made for the Nintendo Wii. In February, executives from EA confirmed that it was being made for the Nintendo DS too. He talks a little bit about the Wii and DS, and says that he loves Advance Wars. Nice. View on Digg

    Looks like Spore is not dead after all! I've been waiting for this game ever since it was announced and demoed several years ago. Though, I'm not entirely sold on publishing it exclusively for the Wii, due to its unimpressive graphics performance and lack of hard drive...but I suppose only time will tell. Once thing is for sure though, we're in for an infinitely more interesting interface given the Wii's capabilities.

  • Welcome to the jungle

    Been a pretty crazy weekend...on Thursday night around 8:20pm a Tornado plowed through my Grandmother and Dad's property in northern Michigan. Creating a path of destruction 14 miles long and 1/2 mile wide. My grandmother's and our property were quite fortunate, considering no one was hurt and the main house had no major damage. My dad and I arrived to the following scene Friday evening, almost 24 hours later.

    I apologize for sub par quality but I had to take them with my blackjack camera phone...I wish I would have had a real camera, but I think you can get a good idea. As you can see, we had a LOT of trees to cut and clear, but thankfully, we had help from friends and neighbors.

  • Welcome to chriskirby.net!

    I'm back up and running with a shiny new site and a new domain name to go with it! Telligent has really done a nice job with their 2007 release...I look forward to discovering more about its new features and customizing it even further.

    Stay tuned for a new steady stream of useless, and sometimes downright ridiculous garble that are my interests and life as I know it. I definitely have some shiny new gadgets to talk about...iPod fever anyone? Not to mention the impending release of visual studio 2008 and c# 3.0; going to be an exciting q4 for us developers, cant wait.
