Frogger Days and Nights

By Cory Aldrich

I suppose I should briefly introduce myself. I’m Cory; though you’ll normally find me popping up as Bald Man. Not only am I well qualified to write a blog about baldness, but now that I am the proud owner of a second hand PS2, I am tall enough to ride along as the Video Games Channel Editor-in-waiting. The loverly and talented l’Ingrid will still be blogging; she’s just passing the editor reigns to me.

Onto my first official act…

Ahhh… Frogger. That’s about my speed. Nothing like a simple game to wile away the hours. Amazing how the handiwork of the devil comes in such colorful pixels.

Since gamers like games, I’ll let you find the links hidden around the image above. Your accompanying narrative:

• Amber digging out from computer troubles and spring break, and she returns with Sam & Max Wonderfulness.
• Leora, over at Sims Gamer, shares news of an art competition that might help a few students get closer to their goals. She also offers a tip to top things off.
• Speaking of l’Ingrid… Her partner-in-crime, Erin, is trying to blame road rage on driving games. Wait… wait… no, I’m okay. She doesn’t mention Crazy Taxi, so I’ve got no beef.
• Patrick Quek is all about your comfort. At Play Gadgets he’s dug up a few new Razer turtles mice, and a keyboard into which I think my iPod would dock nicely. And at Ironic Gamer he has located an ideal place for a gamer to step back and have a little rest.
• Kris is still relatively new to Games Industry Wire, but he’s doing a bang-up job. I assume you’re aware of the spiffy new Xbox 360 Elite?
• Did I mention that we’re looking to fill a few holes in the channel line up?

Right, check ‘em out. And until next time, see you in the Arcade!
