In the Land of the Rotting
So, Zombies! Love them, Hate them, you all have to admit that it is in our geeky ways to hunt them down and remove their heads. With the rise of popularity of shows like Walking Dead, there can not be any doubt that theses rotting meat bags are here to stay. Hell, even Leicester City Council has admitted its ‘not ready’ for zombie attack!! Only in your present Geek Culture can that be taken… errmm ‘Seriously’?

XBOXONE….One Xbox to Rule Them All…
So lets get this out of the way: The new Xbox is called XBOX ONE! Yes, its a stupid name. Its meant to symbolise “There is only one Xbox, only one place to go for all your Entertainment!” Fine, whatever, you want to have a stupid name, not my place say otherwise!
So any ways, lets cover what they announced.

Dear… whatever your name was…
Last year I got introduced to a “Game” which I thought, well bluntly, was NOT A GAME! My opinion was quickly escalated to heated discussion with my friends who concluded that my definition of what a “Game” is was outdated and this was a new way to play. Definitions do change with time and integrate new way to play. My problem with this “Game”, as per all definition, it is a Game; As per the same definition, it is a poor game and should be considered a poor use of the available medium.

It’s okay… I AM A GAMER!!
That was a close one!! I was starting to worry…
So, Last time I spoke, I was going on about being called a gamer! Its been a few months since I wrote that and since then, I had the time to reflect, to absorb new content and information. And I have decided, I AM STILL A GAMER!! If theses kids who ONLY play Call of Duty titles can be called gamers, then an old timer like me is a damned Grizzled Gamer!!

Can I still call myself a gamer?
Can you even stop being a gamer? I’ve had this thought for awhile and it’s not one I can answer or really need answering, I just need to air it and see it in harsh light of day!

I have a premonition… it maybe deadly
So here I am again, on one of my wild goose chases. I arrived in this quiet town, quite lovely really, even it is a little outdated by today’s standard, everything seems like it came from another generation. I have a room in the local hotel. Monstrosity of a place, built for a hundred yet only a few stay.
Continue reading “I have a premonition… it maybe deadly”Call of Not-So-Elite!
Time for some more ranting; Call of Duty is one of the biggest first person shooter franchises on the planet; It gives Activision the rights to print money. Since the release of the first Modern Warfare, they have not released a Call of Duty title without it topping sale charts and going to the top of the most played online titles for months if not till the next title hits shelves! I have no problem with the games, they give what you want. Mindless violence, pretty graphics and a place to finally fulfil that need to kill… I mean play with your friends…
Continue reading “Call of Not-So-Elite!”Brothers till the End of the game!!
I do not get to go too many midnight openings for… stuff. I think I have been to three now and range from crazy (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix… What, it was for my sister!!) To dull (What happened to poor Halo Reach… no love!) But I went and got myself a copy of Gears of War 3 at midnight just to say I did… and guess what? I DID!! WHERE WERE YOU HUH!!
Continue reading “Brothers till the End of the game!!”Are you Awake Alan?
This week I’ve been working on some new bits for some websites, including the Sitebar which now lurks at the top of all the partner sites. I have also been playing with tons off css and learning new ways to use it to achieve some really cool effects.
Apart from work, I have been sinking my teeth into… Alan Wake.
