Mobile fun

My mum is one of those people who forwards all the funny/random e-mails she gets to her inbox.
So tonight I came home and had 4 e-mails from her. Granted three of them were photos from her holiday, she doesn’t know she can put them all in one e-mail, bless.
Anyway the fourth contained this scan, from [...]

The Business of Dying

Another very confusing book.
Simon Kernick’s The Business of Dying starts with a man murdering three men gang land style. We are told the men are drug dealers and he is doing the world a favour.
We then find out the narrator is a police man. A police man by day who doesn’t believe in the [...]

Here we go again

I just went on Xbox.com Support to see how much it’d cost to get my 360 fixed and it turns out it’s in warranty now. Before it wasn’t, now it is.
Well I’m not complaining. About that anyway. I’m gonna be complaining a LOT about the fact it’s broken in the first place.
I’m gonna send [...]

Return to sender

I’m gonna send Vegas 2 back to GAME. It’s sort of working but it’s freezing way too much to play it and it’ll only get worse so I want a brand new one.
More worrying is the fact that this is the second game in a week this has happened to (It happened to GRAW2 as [...]

Conspiracy Theory

Since I got my 360 back I seem to be having more problems with it than when I sent it off.
First, my GRAW2 disc was burnt to fuck the first time I tried to load my save game. So that required a trip to GAME to get the disc cleaned.
Second, it is sluggish [...]

Spring has sprung

I thought today was the first day of Spring but apparently it was yesterday so my post’s a day late. Boo.
Anyway, Spring is here! Warmer days! Lighter nights! One season closer to Summer! And what does Summer bring? Timmytime!And I get to go back to Seattle, my favourite city in the world.
So why was I [...]

The Road

I bought Cormac McCarthy’s The Road the other day on the recommendation of a friend.
I started reading it in Starbux and it’s written in a very strange way. Punctuation is missing and it sort of goes in rapid short rambling paragraphs.
However it was very engrossing and I couldn’t put it down whenever I [...]

Patch me up

I received Bully from Game two weeks ago today and so far I’ve played it for all of twenty minutes. The day it was released people were complaining about it having framerate and freezing issues and Rockstar said they would patch it within a week.
I figured I’d give it a try anyway and it worked [...]

Kane & Lynch: Dead Men

Is it possible to un-play a game? I wish it were.
There’s just nothing like-able about this game. The characters are a psychopath and a murderer. Why didn’t they have a child molester too? I’m sure he would’ve been fun to play as.
And what makes these characters so cool? Well the fact they swear every second [...]
