Time. Where Did You Go?

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 [...]

A Farewell to Sloth

If I were going to choose one piece of music to sum up my experiences since leaving my last contract at the end of February, it would most likely be Too Months Off by Underworld.  Firstly because it’s a great slice of electro wonderfulness, and secondly because that’s precisely what I’ve had.  It also has [...]

Splinter Cell Conviction: A Wonderful Surprise

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, [...]

Back On Track

Work may well be a four letter word, but right now it’s one I’m happy to be using again.  I’ve been working from home for the last two months (minus some holiday time) and the much needed time off has worked wonders for me. But now that the book publishing project is finished bar promotion, [...]

PS3 Review: Nier

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 [...]

Living With The Light

Living With The Light is the first book from spiritual medium Mary Anne (I know her simply as Mum).  I have been working on getting the book published for the last couple of months, and this mammoth project is finally complete.  You can visit the books official web site HERE, or click the link in [...]

12 of 12 V – April 2010

It’s 12 of 12 time once again, and after five years you really don’t need me to tell you it’s 12 photos on the 12th of each month to represent your day do you?  Of course not, nor that Chad Darnell is the creator of the original (and best) version of this global challenge. Before [...]

Diet Chef (aka No More Mr Chunky)

This is a compendium of several posts that charted the start of my journey with Diet Chef.  Rather than make readers click through several different posts I’ve collated all the info into the one place to, for want of a better word, digest. Once upon a Snickers ago I used to be extremely…chunky.  Alright chunky [...]

Blu-ray Review: 2012

John pondered holding up a boombox to save the world Hollywood has a large number of easy targets for vitriol such as Jerry Bruckheimer or Michael Bay who produce loud, visually stunning movies that are devoid of any quality story or character development.  As many people sagely state “Michael Bay likes blowing sh*t up!”, and [...]

Homeworkers Anonymous

I survived my first week of homeworking without doing any of the following: Going mad Playing games all day Eating enough to go up a jeans size Procrastinating for eight hours a day Buying an iMac So all things considered, pretty good. Homeworking is a slightly odd experience, and I’m sure anyone who does it [...]
