- Eat Lead
- Bayonetta
- LittleBigPlanet 2

- Sports Champions
- Dance Central
- Bulletstorm
- Grand Theft Auto IV
- Metro 2033
- Singularity
- Alan Wake
- Alone in the Dark
- Eternal Sonata
- Nier
- Way of the Samurai 3
- Far Cry 2
- Borderlands
- Batman: Arkham Asylum
- Enslaved
- Mirror’s Edge
- Torchlight
- Guwange
- Prototype
- Tenchu Z
- Wolfenstein
- STALKER
- GrimGrimoire
- Stacked
- Michigan: Report from Hell
- Final Fantasy VII
- Final Fantasy X
- Final Fantasy X-2
- Final Fantasy XII
- Paparazzi
- Metal Gear Solid 4
- Metal Gear Sold 3
- Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes
- God of War III
- Civilization IV
I reckon if work allow me to take about two year’s worth of paid holiday I’ll get through it no problem.
Easy Normal Hard
StandardRight, so here’s a thing. I love Cave games. They’re widely recognised as some of the toughest games in the world. Totally unforgiving. Play. Die. Play. Get a tiny bit further. Die. Repeat.
Yet when it comes to action games, I nearly always play on easy. It’s not that I don’t like the challenge. It’s just that time is precious and I want to experience it all as quickly and painlessly as possible. It’s laziness, I suppose. Perhaps when I’ve clocked the SP I might return on a higher difficulty for the challenge (as I did recently with Killzone 3).
An iPhone 4 friendly Cave wallpaper I put together. Because tragically that’s the sort of thing I now do in my spare time.
Ba weep grana weep ninny bong
Two things strike me about this tsunami footage. It’s easy to sit back and watch with awe and the literally awesome power of nature. And then you see those cars, perhaps with families inside, desperately fleeing for their lives. Impossible to imagine the horror. So saddening.

StandardThink I’m gonna tell the lady in newsagents later that I think she’s ugly and shit at her job (via an anonymous note, obviously).
If somehow you’ve not seen this photo of Tiger Woods (which, of all outlets, was published by The Daily Mail) you should. Wonderful for a myriad of reasons. Not least of which is the tit with the cigar.
What to do with ‘media bullshit’?
LinkThings I like more than tea
StandardThere aren’t many things that hand on heart I can say I love more than tea. Twelve, in fact:
- My family
- My iPhone
- Possibly football
- Smoking
- Maybe video games
- Being clean
- Being warm
- Being flat
- The Internet
- The Next Generation
- Darth Vader
- Eyes and hands and things that one needs if one wishes to play games
Genuinely, that’s it. I like tea.
