After many years of in-house training I decided to let the next generation of gamers (my kids) go with me to a LAN recently.
Thanks go to WoL and his crew for helping make their first outing (age 12 and 13.5) an enjoyable one.
We played some Codename Eagle and Unreal Tournament.
And yes, they made their Dad proud. :)
To celebrate, I’m releasing my UT Kids video from 6 years ago:
[EvEm]_Aphid has uncovered long lost sketches by [EvEm]_Matmos for EvEm logo concepts. I’ve uploaded them to the gallery.
Yes, I am still alive and gaming. But that’s not all…

Evil Genius (again), TF2 (as Omey’s personal sentry guard)
New toys:
The Chevrolet has had some internal upgrades, but nothing recent.
