I wrote the following in response to a description of a cut scene in RE5.  The following is cut because I know some people (myself among them) have to be in the right frame of mind to read things that might upset them.  My comment on racism in RE5 and a link to the relevant post in ( Read more... )

Some video games get no love. Media-wise folks tend to focus on the ones that appeal to the perceived gaming masses. The perceived gaming masses being the so called "hardcore gamers". More and more casual games are getting a foot in the door. Particularly nintendo driven ones like wii-sports and wii-fit. However more casual games get lost and ( Read more... )

*crosses fingers* I wonder if it'll work.



edit: apparently not... lets give it another go

I seem to keep making spore creatures/vehicles that are backward unintentionally. I see magic eye images back to front. I continually get left/right mixed up. I also tend to use the opposite word I intend to use in conversations. I think this is all evidence that my brain works the wrong way round ( Read more... )

After hours spent pondering I believe I have the answer to the question that has been plaguing gamers. Where do we they go from here? (bonus score - dual reference) It boils down to escalation. We began the day with Red, Blue and Yellow. Then followed Gold, Silver and Crystal. Things were broken up slightly with FireRed and LeafGreen but then ( Read more... )

I can't seem to win. I stayed up way too late on monday night. For me that was a wussy 12pm. That was mostly due to COV which I'm still playing even with seriously irritating crashes when I manage enhancements. If it wasn't so unstable on my computer I may consider grabbing a game card or two but with things as they are I think I'll just go ( Read more... )

I've been staying up way too late of late. I'm one of those people who seriously needs their sleep too. I predict I shall crash at some point this weekend. Part of the problem is damn Dave got me involved in eve. It's the sort of game I'll be really terrible at some stuff like combat for example but I'll eventually get a handle on some other ( Read more... )

Since when has IGN been writing reviews for news.com.au? Are they reeling in shame after all those pro-sony articles and decided to get some new writers? Or have they simply reached the limit on how many times they can review Flight Simulator? Also haven't they noticed that the these new reviews may be longer but are just as bad as the old ones?

I've wanted to make a post for a couple of days. Not really about anything in general I've just wanted to sit down, reflect and write something. Only I've been a bit of a funk for the last couple of days. No not the groovy kind. So I've had zero motivation to do... anything. I think I finally got out of it yesterday but then I was pretty busy ( Read more... )

I've been kinda busy lately so I haven't spent much time at all near a computer let alone the internet. Well that's strictly speaking not true so I have been lugging my laptop around with me I just haven't done much with it. Although I suppose a DS could be considered a computer so it would appear that I have lied. Hmmm, now I can't even ( Read more... )
