Prey release party

Last night was the Prey release party. Not a lot of game-development events happen in this town, so I was pretty excited to go.

They flew in Kid Beyond for the entertainment. This guy brings beat boxing to a new level. It was EXTREMELY impressive to begin with. He then raised the bar more and built a Portishead song from scratch on stage. He had a little foot operated looper and he would just sit and layer. The song was Wandering Star which I am very familiar with and it was just amazing.

GeorgeB and ScottM also flew in. I didn't get to talk with Scott much, but I did talk with George quite a bit. I saw Scott at E3 last year, but I had not seen George in 7 years or so. He was exactly the same. I've had my issues with 3DR, but I always had respect for George. After talking with him last night my respect is now higher.

Overall it was an excellent evening and Chris is just freak'n hilarious when he is SUPER pissed. Especially when he is talking with mom. Good times.
