Xander's first haircut

Xander's hair was getting shaggy, so we took him down to the local Lollilocks for a haircut. I was all about busting out the clippers but was summarily overruled by Rochelle. Fauxhawk beats the mohawk this time. ;)

Hassel the Hoff

In conjunction with our Movie Studio release we'll also be offering David Hasselhoff as a playable (read: launchable) character! It really is kind of a first for our medium and it's pretty neat to hear all the excitement being generated by this announcement. People magazine has done an article about this as well.

PAIN - Movie Studio

One of the great things about working on a PSN game is that we produce frequent DLC (download-able content). This also means a shorter development cycle - which is good for keeping customers interested in your product and keeping your work hours normal. Anyhow, with that said, below is what I worked on in the past few months. I think it will be out on November 18th... Happy Birthday Mom! =)

The angry moose at Long Lake

On Saturday we drove up into the Indian Peaks Wilderness to get in a fall day hike. The Aspen trees are now showing their varying autumn colors from bright yellow to deep orange. Rochelle was especially keen to check them out up close. We started at Brainard Lake and ascended via the trail to Long Lake. Xander was game and we made good time. Upon arrival, we pushed around the loop until we found a good access trail that led down to the water.

At the water we walked out onto a point and began scouting for a good fishing spot. After survyeing for a couple minutes Chelle informed me the trail died out and we'd have to back track. Not one for rewinding I decided to check it out myself... and that's when I noticed "it". I say "it" because I could not indentify what the mass of hair in the brush was. The animal's head and hind-quarters were obscured by thick foliage.

I reached for the camera in my backpack and just as I was pulling it out, the animal vanished into the brush. While I silently cursed the missed opportunity, the brush near us rustled and out came a moose... I kid you not (moose in Colorado?). He was young, probably a year or two old sporting a decent 3x4 rack and a mean disposition. He immediatley charged toward us on the shorline. Sadly I did not get this on video as I was too busy trying to get Chelle and Xander out of there! Anyhow, long story short, we vacated his space and watched from a distance. That's when we noticed his "big brother". Wow, this guy was a monster (glad he wasn't the one who bum-rushed us)! Fun times here in Colorado. =)
