  Ryan MacDonald Ornament

  This blog is a part of the scavenger hunt.

  Share a couple of items on your Christmas wishlist this year.
  With the 3D TV I already got for my birthday this year, the only item I really want for Christmas is a 7.1 sound system, the Onkyo HT-S5300.
  I've been rocking the 5.1 long enough, time to graduate.
  
  Aside from this, I'd like world peace for Christmas!
  
  What games will you play during the holidays?
  I'll be playing a ton of GT5, good amount of Black Ops, I'll play through Tron: Evolution, I really want to go back and play some more Heavy Rain, now that I just downloaded the Noble Map Pack I'll be playing some Halo: Reach once again. Red Dead Redemption Undead Nightmare, maybe some WOW Cataclysm, a little bit of the Fight: Light's Out.
  
  What are the kinds of food or drinks you must have during the holidays?
  I've got to have a steady stream of chocolate milk, Snapple Fruit Punch, and Pepsi for liquids. Chipotle, Burger King, and Taco Bell, will likely be my three main food groups. However Chevy's sounds so good right now!

  2010 Highlights

  Seasons Greetings! With 2010 winding down, Santa isn't the only one making lists and checking them twice. I've had to make a few lists last week and thought I'd share the one pasted below since it had a few of my favorite things from 2010. Figured it my be handy to reference in case you missed something this past year. I hope you enjoyed them!

  Jan.

  • C.E.S. (I am usually really impressed by one or two gadgets, a really big 3D TV, or random new tech. Looking forward to next month to see whats new for 2011.)

  Feb.
  

  • Most Anticipated of 2010 (I always really liked this feature, even though I look absolutely horrible in it for some reason.)
  • Heavy Rain (I was way into Heavy Rain, but just for the week I originally played it. I need to go back and play again.)

  March

  • G.D.C. Live Today on the Spot Day 1 (Behind the scenes Stig and I finally got a chance to thankfully laugh about the E3 demo appearance we had together in 2009.)
  • Sony GDC Press Conference (We had a blast doing this event live.)
  • God of War 3 (This game was simply awesome)

  April
  

  • Today on the Spot April 1st Episode (This one had a lot of fun business in it)

  May

  • Video Game History Month
  • Alan Wake: Now Playing (I was in the control room watching the guys play during this shoot and it was one of the first times I really understood what Alan Wake was all about and I loved it!)
  • Red Dead Redemption came out! (I played a lot of Red Dead in 2010)

  June

  • E3 (The live stage show, E3 Live Cam, Tonight on Spot, and all kinds of crazy stuff, like riots!)
  • Mortal Kombat (Getting to close the show with Ed Boon and Mortal Kombat was awesome to say the least.)

  July

  • Comic-Con Stage Show (This was crazy cool. We actually helped plan out the stage and did all kinds of fun business with folks from CBS. LL Cool J. playing Sports Champions was definitely a highlight.)

  Aug.

  • GameSpot's All-Time Greatest Game Villain (This was crazy awesome)
  • GameSpot Comic-Con Super Show (This was also one of my favorite projects of the year. Wish we would have had more time for this, but the time and effort we put into it I think paid off.)
  • Quakecon 2010 (I totally got to go to Quakecon this year! Awesome event, super great people.)

  Sept.
  

  • PlayStation Move: Now Playing
  • WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Live Roster Reveal (This was crazy fun to produce, a bit tricky, like walking tight rope now that I think about it. But yeah, people had fun.)
  • Tokyo Game Show Super Show (Luigvi FTW!)

  Oct.
  

  • Kinect Now Playing Marathon
  • Terror on the Spot (Easily one of my favorite projects of 2010)

  Nov.
  

  • Call of Duty: Black Ops (Over 3million people watched this Now Playing on youtube.)
    Video Review
  • Gran Turismo 5 (I am way into GT5 and its 3D action.) Video Preview, Now Playing, Video Review
  • Gamer's Holiday Gift Bags

  Dec. (We had a lot of the best of the year right in December.)
  

  • Best of 2010
  • Today on the Spot
  • Killzone 3 Now Playing
  • DC Universe Online Now Playing
