Exciting week, this one.

This is my final week as Community Manager for Petroglyph. No animosity or weirdness with the split, it’s just time for me to move on towards new projects. I look forward to hearing future announcements from Petroglyph, as there are some pretty awesome things on deck at the studio.

I’m also getting married this weekend. We decided on a small affair with family and friends we’ve grown up with, followed by a group dinner at Rosemary’s, where in addition to the whole getting married thing, I’m excited for the beer pairing.

Tina and I will be spending the following week in New York. First time for both of us, so I’d love to hear any geek recommendations beyond the usual touristy bits. So far I’ve got Forbidden Planet and the Nintendo World Store on the list.

Demo video after the jump.
