This is us making beads
In other random unrelated news Xbox Live arcade went and released two of my favourite games while I was away. The first will need no introduction as everyone know it as the best shmup ever, that's right R-Type Dimensions. These are two games I've been trying to track down for years for my Arcade Machine but they always seem to come up when things are tight, so this release should sate my appitite for the time being :)
The other game was a complete outsider. Way back in my college days a craze swept my course for a game called Scorched Earth. It took place on a randomly generated landscape with tanks randomly placed on it which each player controlled. The idea was to kill everyone else on the map and be the survivor. You got cash for each kill and could bigger and better weapons, from dirt mobs which covered your opponents and they had to dig out, to Nuke which obliterated half the map. It was good fun and passed the lunchtimes quickly :) Anywho, XBox Live have just released what looks like a remake of it and it's called Death Tank. I've tried the trial and it's cracking, the number of weapons was more limited but that could be just the trial... Anywho, go check it out, it's an excellent party game :D
Workflow, in the next couple of days I'm going to start posting a series of articles on WF 4.0. I'll start off with the creating a new custom activity and work my way up from there. So keep posted for more information. These articles will be based on the PDC build, so I'll update them when the Beta becomes available :)
