Finally, I can post an entry on LiveJournal. I've been pretty busy these past few weeks, and it seems the last time I updated was on the thirteenth of February. To be honest, I haven't done anything major that has caused me to be knee-deep in shit lately, so I think it's a combination of me not feeling very well and being quite lazy. I'm extremely ( Read more... )

My videogame blog at RewiredMind is now online, so please subscribe to the RSS feed.

I also took a quick tour of central London a couple of days ago. It wasn't for me; I had guests from Turkey visiting and they wanted to do some sight-seeing. I took a bunch of photos of course, so you can view those on my Picasa web album. Most of the trip was ( Read more... )

The Videogame Style Guide and Reference Manual - it's quite a mouthful for a book title. Videogame journalism is quite a messy one, there are so many words that have variations which makes writing an article so much more difficult. That's why I ordered this book, which tries to set a standard for us videogame bloggers and journalists to help make ( Read more... )

Just beat advanced chamber 18 on Portal so I'm pretty much done with the game now. I must admit, I had to check a video guide for the final advanced chamber because damn, I never would have guessed how to get to the companion cube using the trap wall. Valve has confirmed that they'll be working on another Portal at some point, but they don't think ( Read more... )

Those of you who follow video games but don't know who David Jaffe is, let me give you some brief history. He's best known as the director of God of War, and also developed games like Twisted Metal before that. He's a very outspoken fellow, unlike most others in the industry. Sure, sometimes he gets in trouble but the rest of the time you really ( Read more... )

I hate my constipation problems, I haven't been able to take a shit for a month, perhaps even longer since I haven't been counting. Yeah, too much information but hey; if I can't speak my mind on my own journal then what's the point? Anyway during my constipation period, I've been enjoying that Orange Box thing. I just finished Half-Life 2, so I ( Read more... )

As I've only experienced the wonders of Portal recently, I'd like to jump on the parody bandwagon. Though it was shockingly quick to complete, the fact that I enjoyed the experience from start to finish makes up for this shortcoming easily. Obviously Portal isn't the only game in the Orange Box, so I've also been having some fun on Team Fortress 2 ( Read more... )

I've been playing Bioshock for months, and I've finally just finished the son of a bitch. News that's way more interesting than the new year, right? Seriously though, it took me so long to get through this game because I really had to be in the mood to play it, even though it's so damn good. I don't think this game is as amazing as people say it is ( Read more... )

Bought a white PSP Slim & Light for myself today, though since it's 3:30AM I guess that would be yesterday now. I also got Wipeout Pulse with it free, which is a great game but I'll probably be trading it in for something more fresh, as I already own Wipeout Pure. Anyway I've been doing some New Years shopping for my friends and family lately, ( Read more... )
