My #SCED for today is my take on the titles for Team ICO’s upcoming “The Last Guardian” which doesn’t have a final logo or animation publicly released yet. The feather is an asset from the recently released trailer.

Well well well! I’ve been thinking. To try and escape what I have to do in freelance and school work, I’m going to deviate and create something unrelated and cool every day. It started out as random outlet, but has mutated into a topical one. Each day I’m taking a snippet of something I’ve read, heard or thought about into account and creating something around it. You should join in! It’s a whole lot of fun! Make something cool (doesn’t matter what medium) and post it to twitter with the hash tag of “#SCED”!

To catch up to speed, I’m going to be posting some of the last few days’ SCED’s.

Shocking that I’ve been making this as the Trico news breaks, but this has consumed my thoughts all day.

Underlying image is a screenshot from Shadow of the Colossus 1, arted up all fancy like.

Last night the season finale of 24 heralded the end of my prime time viewing habits for the coming months. What mind melting programming will replace my current regiment? This is why humans should hibernate.

Sunday was my first earthquake, and it happened to be a 5.0! Needless to say it scared the piss out of me, but it also made me more aware. Aware of the impending threat of Zombie attack, and the facilitation an earthquake could play. You are forewarned!

What The Fuckery (WTFery for short) is a term that needs to be used more often. Defined in the image above, I believe it can surely find its way into our vernacular. For example: “There is some serious WTFery going on in here, that elephant just ate a penguin.”

My good friend Luis Hurtado sprung this one on me out of the blue. “They call me Lou the Crazy Glue cuz I keep shit together!” How could I not make that?

Next week is our transition to a live Video, and downloadable Video & Audio podcast, so take a listen this week to get more information on that, in addition to, of course, getting the weeks worth of news (including unfortunate insights into future Game->Movie projects), along with our talk this week on morality in games, and some shootin of the shit there at the end.  Looking forward to next week’s show!
