I had to write a post to show off this absolutely amazing piece of work that Lee created for me, it’s an Audi RS4 that has been customised with my company logo and colour scheme in Forza 3. These pictures don’t do the whole package justice as it looks absolutely amazing in motion. Cheers Lee, [...]
Alan Wake has been a long time coming for me. Given that its major influences are Stephen King (my favourite author), The X-Files (my favourite television show of all time) and Twin Peaks along with a smattering of Lost for good measure, this is the game that could have been designed just for me. After [...]
Earlier this week I wrote a post regarding my experiences (which are one hundred perfect stellar) with Splinter Cell Conviction. Since writing the post I have been continually playing through the multiplayer modes such as Hunter (take down enemies, which multiply if you set off alarms) and currently the DLC mode Infiltration. Which is like [...]
If certain web forum trends are to be believed then once every few years people who play videogames a lot (or have done for a long time) usually tend to go through an occasional “why do I do this?” phase. Of course I’m no expert on this particular subject, or any other for that matter, [...]
Square Enix is the latest in a relatively short line of Japanese videogame companies who have been aggressively acquiring Western studios to expand their portfolio of titles, and perhaps more importantly customer numbers. If you had told me a year ago that I would have played three Square Enix published games in the space of [...]
Like many other people I tend to purchase new media on day one. A new game is coming out? Preorder from Amazon or Game. Much of this is enforced by the wonders of the preorder. Buy from X and get an exclusive code to unlock something. Do it in one of those old fashioned brick [...]
For the past few years there have been numerous articles written in countless magazines, on gaming web sites and blogs about the state of the Japanese gaming industry. Where once Japanese companies, games and studios ruled the roost, now we find some of the largest players in the electronic entertainment business are from the US [...]
Thanks to the excessively cold temperatures this past week we went without any post until yesterday when this bumper crop arrived. To be honest I’m amazed it all came at once Planet Terror and Crank 2 were from the Play.com sale (£9.99 each, the only non-digital sale items I bought this..no wait..last year) and Bayonetta [...]
CAUTION: This post contains spoilers for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. If you are one of the few gamers who hasn’t completed one of the finest shooters even made, proceed with caution! After my last post where I ruminated on the slightly uneasy feeling I had playing Call of Duty: World at War, I did [...]
It’s the summer gaming/TV transition once again. All of the major TV shows are finished for the next few months, leaving only Harper’s Island and a massive stack of The Wire, Buffy and dozens of other shows for contemplation. Once upon a time I used to bemoan having a lot of movies to watch, now [...]
