Yes it is true that we made it back from our "top secret" mission.

And while we can't tell you where we've been just be sure to check back because as soon as that NDA runs out we'll be reporting a whole bunch of stuff.

After signing NDA's as thick as a Stephen King book (and as hard to read as a Shakespeare play) we are only allowed to tell you that we are off to something big.

In the mean time, be sure to browse our archives for news we've broken in the past. It could be relevant. That's all I'm allowed to say.

Be sure to check back here for regular updates to console gaming news when we return. (If we return...)

Until then, have a great week!

Personally we have a summer cabin so we have an old dreamcast hooked up to an even older TV for those rainy days.

Of course for the trip out there the DS and Gameboy come in handy, or for when you just don't want to get out of the lawn chair.
