How The Hell Are Ya!?

Hey guys sorry it's been so long since the last blog post but a lot has been going on as of late. First off I just wanted to get everyone a overall heads up that Pixelation is back in full force so keep an eye on here, the website, facebook & your email for notifications on the next event!

So what has been going on in the world of 72dpi? Well the Ball & Chain Podcast has been going strong week after week giving our listeners some great info as well as some new content & segments. We recently added "5 Minutes In Heaven" to our show. This segment will basicacly give us roughly 5 minutes to talk about an old school game that we've recently went back and played. The past episode 140 & 141 included 1080 Snowboarding (N64) & NBA Street (Game Cube) respectively. Look for this segment to be sticking around for the long haul as it's a great reminder of what games were like back then and how far they've come.

We have also added another unnamed segment to our show. We've had some 72dpi Clan members join us via Skype and caught up with them and what they're playing. Episode 129 & 141 had special guest PhaseSIS & Pase12345 respectively. As I said, this isn't going to be a weekly segment but I am impressed with the sound quality that we received during these 2 episodes. With that said, we will be doing it again. (if you would like to be on the show shoot me a message.)

In other 72dpi news, our last Pixelation Event (February) we had a small turn out but we were able to get some Gotham City Impostors, MW3 & Mario Kart 64 in. I'm really hoping the low turnout was due to the Sunday Event Date. So with that kind of turn out we will be moving events back to Saturdays. Look for the next Pixelation event info to be announced by the end of this week!

I would also like to talk about our Tuesday Night Magic events. We have been having some really good turnouts on our bi-weekly events. I'm really impressed the members that have taken a liking to these events and shown their support week after week! Keep it up guys! There is a new set of Magic cards coming out at the end of April and we might do a special event for that release. More details will be discussed and posted later!

Other than tha,t look for Gaming Nights to come back soon! Here is the short list of games you should be looking to purchase if you are interested in participating with us at these online gatherings.

Gaming Night Titles
Halo Reach
Modern Warfare 3
Gotham City Impostors
South Park: Go Go Tower Defense
League of Legends
