Heavy Rain
Bloody hell. That was good. Which probably sums up in five words why I would never get a job reviewing games. The idea of Heavy Rain seemed strangely familiar when people started whispering about it. The idea that you’re basically watching a film that invites you to…
Aliens vs Predator
When it comes to writing anything that involves Aliens and Predators there is a very long and established custom. It is important to stress how cool Predator was and how Aliens is better than Alien because it has Space Marines in it. It’s then important to look…
Just like Microsoft
This week has completely bewildered me. It’s no secret that I’m quite a big fan of Google. As far as the whole “we’ll give you free stuff if you let us go through your draws” deal goes, I’m fully signed up. I think it’s fair…
Mass Effect
I’ve had a strange relationship with Mass Effect. It was always the game on the Xbox that would possibly sway me away from Sony. This was even before I bought a PS3. Actually this was even before I’d played Mass Effect. I think I just liked the idea of an…
Future Phone
It’s not often that someone comes up with an idea that will revolutionise the very core of telecommunications. Strangely I have just done exactly that. Rather than keep my idea a secret I thought it would be useful to write it down here. Many people would think…
The Courage of Others
It probably isn’t appropriate to blow your album of the week on a Monday. What if a better one comes out tomorrow? What if a better one came out today and I just didn’t notice it? That’s entirely possible, I’ve only heard one album today and…
Assassin’s Creed 2
The second game of the year finished and we’re just flirting with the end of January. This year has some potential. Once again, if you’re thinking of buying this then go and read a review by proper reviews. These are just my rambling post finishing…
Ratchet & Clack: A Crack in Time
Do you know what I’m going to do? I’m going to record all the games I complete on here so I have some record of the massive amount of time I waste each year in the pursuit of…… What do I actually get out of it? Largely nothing but a sore wrist….
Last time I mention it….
After banging on about my favourite albums of the last decade I decided to make a much longer list of my favourite albums. It’s probably much too self indulgent to go through the entire list on here but I’ve attempted to convert it into a playlist. Yes,…
Funk
I’ve been mucking about with Spotify. I’m not completely sure if it is that useful and I can’t really see a great deal of difference from Last FM Radio. The playlists do seem like a good way of sharing stuff you’re listening to and, hopefully…
Spoils of War
If you are intending to play Modern Warfare 2 and do not want the story ruined then you would be better off not reading this. Having said that it is unlikely that I can ruin the story as it makes little or no sense.To say I intend to include spoilers is a bit of an…
Music / Time = List
I originally posted this as a thread on The Stirrer but then it occurred to me that this is exactly the reason I own a blog which I rarely update. So I’ve plagiarised my own work. I like a good list. I particularly a good list of things at the end of a decade….
