ME3 London Space Launch
So much for hunting the London ME3 Space Launch down… Just checked wind direction for tomorrow, going to exact opposite way from Guildford. Well that’s that plan neatly ended ¬¬
(yes I did just check wind conditions to try and win a copy of Mass Effect 3 lol)

Just finished recording a podcast...
I’m back on the Nintendo-Okie podcast this week! It’s been almost a year but finally you can hear me talking about games again (as if anyone cares lol), and of course, managing to get a mention in about Mass Effect 3.
Not sure how long I’m on for, I’m just a guest this week, but I appear in the news segment talking about GAME’s financial problems and lack of stock....

To Remake or not to Remake - The Case for Remakes →
One of the more recent trends in gaming has seen the re-release of classic games in updated or enhanced formats across all systems, broadening the potential audience for older games. These remakes are now becoming a key way for new gamers to experience old games, but is it the right way to do things?

Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games... →

This however has not happened. Mario & Sonic 2012 on 3DS falls into the mini-game category, replacing full Olympic events with select slices of each event which take mere seconds to complete. Despite...

The Unbelievable Truth - S04E01
Reginald D. Hunter: *reading aloud* In the United States, cats have gone beyond domestication, with several having their own TV shows, underground comic books and product endorsements.
Rhod Gilbert: *buzz*
David Mitchell: Rhod?
RG: I’m gonna go with ‘They’ve gone beyond domestication and have their own TV shows, comic books and things like that.’
DM: No, no they haven’t.
RG: Top Cat!
DM: No, Top Cat’s not a cat, he’s a drawing.
RG: But he’s a drawing of a cat!
DM: Yes, that’s a sort of drawing, not a sort of cat. A tiger is a sort of cat, a drawing of a cat is a sort of drawing.

Finishing the Fight →
This week sees the release of the Mass Effect 3 demo and with it begins the final countdown to the finale of one of the most ambitious gaming projects in recent times. But as this is the finale, and with the previous game becoming a memory, what is there this time to make players come back, and perhaps more importantly, bring new people in?
