I hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Year. Mine has turned out to be a little less relaxing than I'd like, due to personal matters that I'll not go into here. As such my nerves are running higher than I'd hoped ahead of tomorrows start at the new job. Hopefully its all just stage fright and will dissolve once I arrive. All I can do now is check that I have everything ready for tomorrow. Train ticket - check. Head - check. Err. Oh well, that will have to do. However, it does feel extremely good to be starting 2006 on such a positive - with my first career job as my Dad puts it. I'm hoping I can post occasionally to my journal here on GameDev about how it is all going.

One thing I realised is that I've been very coy about mentioning the company I'll be working for and the title they are working on. Perhaps this was to avoid getting into trouble like the bloggers who've lost jobs after complaining about bosses on their blogs. More likely this was to avoid being accused of name dropping. So with this in mind I'll post hints for the company/title and see if anyone can guess it. The company had a very successful E3 in 2005 with their next-gen title.
