I really get a kick out of the fact that I am now considered an “indie” again after all these years. I have been making games for nearly 30 years, having built a top-five PC publishing house called Interplay around such major franchises as The Bard’s Tale, Wasteland, Baldur’s Gate, Fallout, Descent and more. In the early days, I developed games for other companies and mov... more.

Anyone over the age of 35 should read this, as I copied this from a friend ..Bagging up at the superstore recently, the young cashier suggested I should bring my own grocery bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment. I apologized and explained, "We didn't have this green thing back in my earlier days." She responded, "That's our problem today. Your ... more.

Well, I’ve been kindly asked to carry on my work here at the Mess-Hall, so keep calm and carry on I shall. My first review is not a game? By Jove!   A game of shadows is the sequel to the eponymously titled first Sherlock film by Guy Madonna Ritchie, which actually surprised me because it was quite good. Being a somewhat cynical Brit, I get slightly irritable when one of our own act... more.

I was recently asked to make contributions to this blog by the people who run it. My previous blog is pretty much a ghost town, so I thought why not. After taking a look at the site content I could clearly see it covered the world of gaming, gadgets and electronics, and with this in mind I decided my first piece would be a… book review. Don’t worry, I’m not gonna’ start b... more.

I know Science Fiction has promised us a billion times that the cars of the future will hover or fly. The Sony exclusive Wipeout Games gave us a glimpse of what that might look like for Racing. Now the Japanese Institute of Technology might not be able to make our dreams come true, not yet anyway, but for boys, and men! who like Scalextric, that dream could be closer than ever.

Get ready to buy xbox360's anonymous are threatening to bring down PSN again, but this time it sounds like they mean serious business. Anonymous have sent a video to Sony threatening another attack because of their support for SOPA (Stop Online Pirating Act), which if you don't know yet, is an act that would "expand the ability of U.S. law enforcement and copyright holders to fight online traffic... more.

I was given this game to review only because Symonator or InfiniteStates were too busy to do a review, and no one else was even close to volunteering. It is christmas after all. I'm also not a fan of RPGs at all. My poison is battlefield bad company, battlefield 3 M.A.G. Or if I'm pushed, some modern warfare. I did give dark souls a go last week and kind of liked it, but it didn't qu... more.
