So before I start I'd like to say that evidently decent DS games are like buses, you wait ages for one and then about three billion come along at once. Seriously, I stopped paying attention for about a month and all of a sudden I'm seeing all these RPGs and strategy games that make me very happy and once I get the money for FFIII, Children of Mana ( Read more... )

Now, here is a random update on my life, coz as loathe as I am to descend into the 'yeah so this happened and my friend was like all 'waaah' and I was like 'whatever'' nonsense that prolly makes up 98% of blogginess I daresay *somebody* might actually care and if not I might go off on a vaguely interesting tangent ( Read more... )

So I saw an advert for the PS3 a few moments ago that promised that it would 'change the face of gaming'. NO IT WON'T. IT IS JUST GOING TO PROVIDE THE SAME OLD FUCKING GAMES WITH NICER GRAPHICS. Being honest, the Wii and DS are about the only things that make it seem like games have progressed much outside of graphics since my much-beloved 16 bit ( Read more... )

Haven't the mood or inclination to make an actual post so just a word of warning that my webserver's currently dead so don't get too confused if my comic and forums have vanished. They'll be back ( Read more... )

Went to see AFI last night. An awesome gig it was too (note to self before I forget - support band were The Explosion and were actually pretty good) in spite of the fact that Davey Havok took to the stage wearing bracers of all things. I mean, a band who are to Tim Burton as Cradle of Filth are to Clive Barker, you'd think they'd have some fashion ( Read more... )

Today’s good news is that one way or another I’ll finally have a permanent job soon, the dude I’ve been temporary PA-ing for has decided he likes my work so much that he wants to give me a proper job. Thing is, as a temp my work’s been split between him and another department who ALSO seem to love me and have a job coming up soon. See, folks, jobs ( Read more... )
