My gaming habits have changed drastically over the years and the one I want to talk to you all to today is the beating of a game, some may say its the most important thing to games while others look at it as a bonus if it happens. I used to be obsessed with beating games and it drove me to beat and play loads of games, kind of like those "Read 100 books in a year" challenges that you see at the...

Hi guys, it has been a minute or two hasn't it? So as some of you may remember I was a very active user in the GB forums, one year I got like most comments in one year or something like that. I was often noted for my funny and generally stupid threads, but I also contributed to the wiki. I was banned from the site in 2013 during the weekend where the site was transitioning and the forums had a...

Since I beat Far Cry 3 I kind of lost interest in video games, it actually was one of the reasons I suspected I may have depression as thats one of the symptoms. It was kind of scary, I mean video games had been my life up to that point and to suddenly not give a toss about them really made me ask some hard questions. For the entire of January all I was able to play was Ratchet and Clank: Q For...

Dear duders. The gym has been packed this past month, as I expected of course but shit its like 3 times the amount of people here now. Before Christmas it was pretty much dead, classes I took had just a few of us there and the gym itself was very quiet. I went to my classes though but didn't go to the gym as much as I would have liked. My new years revolution was to go to the gym more often and...

I have been playing video games my entire life, the earliest memory I have is playing Super Mario Bros 3. Well when I say playing it, I mean my mother would be playing it and I would be holding a unplugged controller thinking I was playing. Ever since then I have devoted a lot of my free and not free time to playing and thinking about video games, video games are one of my biggest passions in l...

The past two weeks have been the worst two weeks of my life. If you will recall two weeks ago I went to visit the doctor, I was told to keep a mood diary and everything. Well it turns out this was some week to keep one, because the worst shit happened in the two weeks and well it's why I have not been here. It started off alright, not happy happy happy but you know just normal days. But a few d...

Christmas has come and gone, New year has come and gone, however the bad feelings have gone and come back. I was generally very happy for the majority of the holiday, but a few days ago I got really down again. I decided I have had enough with all of this shit, I need to get something done, so I went back to the doctors. I went to the doctors about a month ago and was given a questionnaire, I f...

Since 2008 I have done my own 2012 awards, this year I decided to start a new trend and just say fuck it. This is the place where I talk about what happened in 2012, the good, the bad and the ugly. These are not just about video games either, this is about anything that I found to be quite important this year. I Platinumed my first Platinum and that will be my last Platinum. I've had a PS3 sinc...

Hey guys, it's that time of the year again, take a look at my choices for Game of the year and tell me what you think. 1. Borderlands 2 Before August I had not played Borderlands and had no intention of buying Borderlands 2, I played Borderlands once before for an hour but got bored and stopped. In August when there was nothing else going on I managed to get a copy of Borderlands again, I playe...

Now updated with my 40th game. I wanted to wait until I finished my 40th game, you know to make it even, but I was just to pumped when I took a step back and just looked at all of these games I beat this year! I don't know if thats a lot of games in comparison to the rest of you, but I think that 39 is a fantastic number compared to me last year where I think I managed about 10-15. This year fo...

I've had the Wii U for a few days now, I can happily say that it is an incredibly awesome console. With Miiverse being awesome and its integration with games being awesome and with awesomeness of the GamePad and the awesomeness of Little Inferno just make the Wii U awesome. I had so much to say in fact I made a video, it's not a review but more of a quick look, if I was to use Giant Bomb's own...

I used to do Video Blogs, or as "some" might call them, Vlogs. Any who, I wanted to do some more, but I am as some of you may already know, quite lazy. So I went out today to Tesco and saw that they had a camera on sale, it seems like a good make and design so i thought fuck it why not. I spent a good time playing with it, then went out for a walk and took my camera with me, I ended up filming...

So a few weeks ago I let the internet know that I believe myself to be depressed, I say believed because I've not had it confirmed by a doctor. So I was going to go a few weeks ago, but when I went to make it I chickened out, I just told myself things will sort themselves out. But then a few days later I would feel down again and say to myself I am going to make one, but yet again the next day...

The end of the year is drawing closer and closer, although the beginning of the year was spent primarily on backlog, now I need to get some 2012 games finished so I can work on my Game of the Year. Right now I'm playing through a bunch of games at the same time, so here is what I've been playing. Call of Duty Black Ops II So I really should stop playing this, I finished the single player this m...

Dear Duders, it has been a while since I have done one of these, so if your looking to catch up with the old entries you can find them here. I joined a Gym. Boxercise . Spinning and Swimming. The Gym! Gym induction 2 and Showers. Skipping a Gym class. So I joined the Gym on August 6th, it has been a very long time since then and I feel like I've always been going to the gym. The gym is no longe...

I was debating whether to post this, but after I gave it some thought I really need to share this with people. So I've been "Depressed" for pretty much most of this year, I put it in quotes because I haven't actually gone to the doctors and have it confirmed. But I'm pretty sure that is what I have, I can't really tell you why I have it, but I believe I do have it. When I told a few people, the...

I finished work on Thursday the 18th of October, that was my last work day. I had the Friday off and then I had the whole of next week and will not return to work until the 29th of October. That is a whole lot of time off work, I get about 20 days of holiday a year, so far I've just taken off a few days here and there. But I had quite a lot going on so I decided I needed a week, so here is what...

If you don't know whats going on, check part 1. There I was, sat in front of my tick sheet that had every single N64 game on it. I had hoped to collect them all, in the end I settled for just the PAL region. So all in all there was about 250 games, i was very excited. Over the next few months I would proceed to pick up a few games every week on Amazon, soon found out Amazon was not the best sou...

It was 1998, I was 6 years old. My parents took me and my sister to GAME for a surprise, when we got there they took us to the games section. We closed our eyes, he told us to open them, in his hand was a Nintendo 64. We bought it and went home and set it up, the game that came bundled in was Banjo-Kazooie. Oddly enough Banjo-Kazooie is my favourite game of all time, so I couldn't have asked fo...

I joined Extra Life a month or two ago, I did it because playing video games is great and so is helping children, so I decided to join up. I have never played video games for 24 hours before, I've not even stayed up for 24 hours before, so it will be an interesting experience. It's going to be one of those things I can mark off my life goals book, "Stay Up for 24 hours" and "Stay up for 24 hour...

Pokemon White/Black Version 2 came out yesterday, I'm a huge Pokemon freak and instantly woke up and picked up a copy of Pokemon White. I had work so I had to wait until after work ti play it, that day did drag but eventually the day ended and hey time to play some Pokemon. So I popped it in and spent the next three hours playing, I posted a small topic on my impressions here if you want to hea...

About 24 hours ago I beat Borderlands, the original Borderlands mind you. You can read all about what i thought about it in the blog I wrote yesterday which you can find here . Anyway, for the rest of Saturday i was deciding what game I should start next. My PS3 backlog alone is like 70+ games, thats not even counting my many other completed games, I still need to crack open that copy of Cool S...

Borderlands 2 was a week or two away from being released, I was all ready to jump straight in and play some of that action. I had played about an hour of Borderlands before but just never wanted to go back and play more. I felt bad because I heard that game was amazing, but hey I was about to play the sequel that was better in every way. But i thought to myself, If I went straight into Borderla...

So I was out shopping today, as I often am, I have very little money right now because of a lot of expensive purchases this month. But shopping is still a fun way to pass the time, especially when you have little money as it means you can hunt for bargains. I've been in the market for some bubble bath for some time now, my mum is all into QVC. I'm guessing most of you know what QVC is, my mum w...

If your a long time follower of me, you will know that I have an STD called HPV. I was diagnosed with the disease earlier this year, which was sadly the day after my birthday. Since then I have had 4 operations and two weeks worth of Aldra Cream, Aldra Cream is a very expensive cream and can be highly dangerous if used incorrectly. There is good news today however, I went back for my checkup ea...

Dear Duders. Since I started the gym about 3-4 weeks ago, I've been very consistent in my going to the Gym. My parents and friends assumed that I would stick with it for a few days and then never go back, so I was happy to prove them wrong by attending the Gym every Tuesday/Wednesday/Friday/Saturday. Last night however, it was a friends leaving due so I had to skip the gym to go out, as guessed...

Dear Duders. I booked myself in for my second Gym induction, I had been to the regular gym about 4 times so I was ready to try some of the different equipment. So this time round there was a lot more equipment to try, the first induction was for the basic things, this time there were a lot more things that required training. Starting off they were simple, a different bike machine, a new steppin...

I've always wanted to record video of me playing games and upload them for the world to see, I never cared what form but I knew I wanted something. I've tried multiple times in the past and I've bought a dazzle, splitter cables the whole lot but I just get so confused and it ends up being way to much hassle. So a few days ago I spent £150 on an Elgato Game Capture HD, I just said fuck it when a...

Dear Duders. Another long wait but here we go again, time for another one of these. If you want to read my past Gym diaries here is those hot links. Introduction. Boxercise. Spinning and Swimming. So after a few classes I was give my induction into the gym, prior to this I wasn't allowed into the Gym until I could prove I knew what I was doing and wouldn't say strange myself with weights. So I...

Dear Duders. It's been a while, I was originally going to post a blog Wednesday evening, but I was just so tired. So I was going to do it the next day, but then I knew I was going to do some more swimming and spinning today so I left it till now. If you want to see my past blogs take a look. Introduction . Boxercise . So I'll start with Spinning, Spinning involves the use of one of those statio...

So I'm back from the spinning class, I'm now off to bury my legs...IN MY BED! Night, blog about this and my earlier swimming tomorrow (Cause I totally decided to do an hour's swimming before spinning, ugh).

Dear Duders. Today is the day that I start my time at my local gym, for those unaware I wrote all about this in a previous blog that you can find here . So yes today was the first class, that class was Boxercise. So I got their about 10 minutes early, I thought it best to get their early so I had time to find the lockers, toilets and take a quick look around. Upon arrival I was greeted by a nic...

Dear Duders. Sweep posted a Tweet the other day saying he had joined a Gym, because of that I was up till 1AM laying in bed thinking about joining a gym. I though to myself, I live so close (10 mins away) and I usually have about £800 spending money as I only pay £90 a month rent and thats it. So I went there today for a look around, only to walk out with unlimited access to all the classes and...

Smell that, it's a blog. I'm writing this while the credits to Battlefield Bad Company are playing, that marks the 34th game I have beaten this year (If you want to see the full list you can find it here ). I wish I would have played this when it was recent, cause that game was just pure awesome sauce! It was really the first Battlefield game I have played for real, I really really enjoyed that...

I loved physical media, in ways I still do but I used to like it a lot more than I do now. For example last summer I got Burnout Paradise for free from being a member of Playstation +, after playing it for about 10 hours and realising how awesome that game is, I went and bought a copy of it from the shop. About 4 years ago I got my first iPhone, I didn't have too many CD's but I was very happy...

I came home from work in a good mood today, happy for the weekend to begin. I am getting towards the end of my current game (The Amazing Spider-Man) so am looking for a new game to play. I was about to pick a game out of my backlog but i decided first to see the perks for PS+ this month, I looked through and saw a discount from this new game called Rainbow Moon. It wasn't that big of a discount...

I was hyped for this game. This game was announced early last year, I knew as soon as I heard about it that my 3DS would be all worth it. I'm a huge Metal Gear Solid fan, I've played all of them multiple times, I know what characters are going to say before they have even said it. So as you would get I was really interested in this game, seeing as there was nothing else out for the system I was...

I set out this year to a different goal than last year, because I didn't really have a goal last year. I just kind of played what I wanted, this time last year I had beat about 4 games as I just spent my time fucking around with Black Ops. This year I took a long hard look at the games I own, I looked at how many games I had in my collection and decided I really need to start playing some of th...

This month has been a crazy time for me, I did something this month which I never thought I would ever do. So I did kind of buy a Minecraft server, when I say buy I mean rent a Minecraft Server, which is just insanse. Minecraft has had such a weird effect on my life since I started playing it about a year ago, ever since then I have been playing it quite a fair bit. There would be times when wh...

There is a cool new Giant Bomb App in the app store, the spiritual successor to the Whiskey Media Video Buddy the Giant Bomb Video Buddy is the best way to watch Giant Bomb videos on your iOS devices. It easily keeps track of what you are watching and lets you download videos for later use, please watch my video review and go and download it. I didn't mention that soup_menu is the guy who made it.

A small update video, please subscribe if you like what you see.

Dear Wii. How are you doing? It has been a while since we last spoke and I am writing to you to apologise for the distance I have put between us over the years, I know we haven't always been on the best of terms and I cam't say how sorry I am about that Mario Party 9 thing but I really think we should spend more time together. I look at you now sat beside the PS3 and I know that every time I pu...

I have spoken my mind many times on this site of what I think of the Zelda franchise, I enjoyed Wind Waker but I never enjoyed the rest of them like I did with Wind Waker. Aside from Wind Waker I only have finished Ocarina of Time and I'm not really a huge fan of that game either. So sometime last year I picked up Darksiders not really knowing too much about it, I played a bit of it but it got...

Another week is over and a new one is just about to begin, time for reflection. I was in such a situation. I have told this many times but for any new readers out there I will do a bit of explaining. I work in a Private Day Nursery which covers the ages of three months to about five years, I look after a year and a half till two years. On Thursday we had parents evening, many of your parents at...

I think ultimatly I was spoiled in 2011, there were so many fantastic games in 2011 and I mean some truely amazing games. Skyrim. Saints Row the Third. Mass Effect 2 (PS3). Dead Space 2. L.A. Noire. Batman. Portal 2. Uncharted 3. Mortal Kombat. Super Mario 3D Land. Thats a pretty big list, there not all of them either I mean Shadows of the Damned, Resistance 3, Mario Kart 7 it just keeps going....

In the past I used to avoid doing these things because nobody is going to send questions to a stranger, but I think I am now in a much better position. So yes send me questions and I will answer them in a video at the end of the week (Sunday), questions can be about anything and not just games. Send them to me on here or via YouTube. Also I'm 20 tomorrow. It's pretty exciting.

So GAME is going through some tough times right now, here is what I think about GAME. As I mentioned in the video I would love to hear back from people and see if they feel the same way or not. Subscribe to me on YouTube if you like these videos, lately I have been posting most of the videos from YouTube on here, but I appreciate that this may be seen as just video spam. So from now on I will o...

I have been known on here to be a bit of an Apple fanboy, I am always praising there work and I love all of there products. I am not alone and most people do to, but it seems that people who enjoy video games are not so keen to jump and buy an iMac. Most developers don't see an audience for video games Macs so they tend to ignore that system all together, but there are some great game on the Ma...

It has been a while since I did one of these, I hope you enjoy it. I'm also looking to do another game collection video next weekend, so I would love to know what console you want me to do. Enjoy Duders!

Just a small blog to say that my 50 games of all time blog series thing is no longer being done, I'm sorry to those who were enjoying them but I do have a reason. So I uploaded about 4 of them I think, every time I went to write the next one I would change the order of a few games around and then take some games off the list and add some games. You see I could never make up my mind where I want...

Some called 2011 a bad year for video games, what with all of the sequels, but I for one really enjoyed 2011. But enough about 2011 because 2012 is just about to begin, January really does not count because nothing has come out in 2012 up to this point aside from a few games. So here are the games that I am personally most looking forward to getting my hands on. Please note these games are in n...

I had a whole list of things I wanted to do this weekend, I was going to do a top 100 video game list, beat Bioshock/Deus Ex, write a few reviews, go out shopping. But I'm afraid one thing got in the way of me achieving all of those things... Cry harder sad panda! So I finished Saints Row The Third last year not long after it came out, I really enjoyed my time with the game and I placed it numb...

2011 was a good year for video games, I know people have said that 2011 was a year of games that have gotten old and run out of ideas, but I could not disagree more. 2011 is the year of video games that have perfected the genre that they inhabit, I could not be more happy with the result. For those of you wondering this is not my Game of the Year awards, they are already up on the site and you...

It's been a while since my last video, all explained in this video update. I'm also thinking of putting together a game of the year episode with footage from the respective game, so stay tuned!. Also for the past week I've been thinking about jumping back on to Runescape, good or bad idea?

Here is Part 2 of my N64 Collection, BRACE YOURSELF FOR DIDDY KONG RACING HATE!! I hope you have enjoyed these two videos, I would like to hear back from you guys about what I did wrong and what I could do to improve them. Also what collection would you like to see next?

I promise not to spam my videos for too long, eventually I'll stop posting them on here all toegther. I'll do a few more so people know that I'm doing them, any who N64 collection bitches! Please be kind, new to this, I even tried to do some editing this time around. There was this bit where I ranted about Banjo-Kazooie for like 20 minutes, so that got edited out! Part 2 will be up in a few day...

So I have wanted to do some sort of videos on You-Tube for a while, I used to do old video game montages but they got took down due to copyright. Then There was the Let's Plays which in all honesty looks like a whole mess of work, so I decided to just do a simple vlog. I decided to start a fresh You-Tube account as well, my old account although had 77 followers, had a bunch of strikes against i...

There I was at Tesco, checking out the new Blu Rays out, and was soon disappointed with Transformers being at the top of the charts. I picked up a sandwich, some fruit and some orange juice. Feeling in a healthy mood since I pigged out on lunch, that was mostly chocolate. So I was on my way out, walked down a bit until I reached a small Zebra crossing. I would like to point out that although it...

Nintendo Nintendo had a really good year last year with a lot of there holiday releases being really good ones such as Donkey Kong Country Returns and Sonic Colours , for us UK people it started off strong with the release of Kirby's Epic Yarn . This year was all about the Nintendo 3DS for them so all of there attention was on the 3DS, however the 3DS didn't launch to great. The console itself...

I made a mistake buying my Xbox 360 , I think I knew it when I bought it. For a bit of backstory for those unaware, this 360 was my second 360. I got an Xbox Elite last year in January, I bought Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts , Mass Effect 2 and Left 4 Dead and the two Banjo games of the XBLA. I didn't really enjoy the three games that much and even though I really enjoyed the Banjo games I was...

11/11/11 Only once in a life-time is there a date such as that, the next time there is one of these is 12/12/12. After that it won't work for 88 years, so get the jokes in now because you will be dead before you can make them again. But aside from the awesomeness of it being the 11/11/11, something else happened on that date, something I along with millions of others have been waiting for, Skyr...

I was sat in my chair, watching X-Men First Class on my Playstation 3, which to be honest was not as good as I remember it being, but still a really good movie. I was also super happy that day because my Whiskey Shirts and poster arrived, which are being washed as I speak. I then followed it up by pigging out with various food in the fridge, bits of chicken, cheese, ham and yogurt. I then got i...

Over the past year I have bought a whole bunch of new releases, I posted the correct amount in a topic and I think it was like 30 or games released this year. Now not all of these games are great games, some of them are not even passable games, but the vast majority were at least good games. But not many of these games were games I personally was excited about or that I've been following, let m...

So in the past two weeks I have spent over 15 hours with Club Penguin , that is more Club Penguin than any human being over the age of 12 should endure. I'm not going to sit here and say Club Penguin is complete garbage, but I am going to say I would rather sit through a Justin Beiber concert followed by a Rebecca Black concert than play this game for a year. I added up the hours of what I coul...

Join me as I spend a year with Club Penguin and let you know whats what! Week 2 - Sombreros, Ghost Busting and the did Mass Effect style dialogue trees! And so the fair ends, it was a cool time I suppose but that music really started to grate on my nerves. As the fair has now ended normality has resumed on Club Penguin Island, it looks barren now as most areas are now empty, also no music on an...

Join me as I spend a year with Club Penguin and let you know whats what! Week 1 - Cool Baby, The Fair and I bought a fucking car! This has been my first full week of Club penguin, and man let me tell you that shit has been going down in Club Penguin! I really do not know where to begin as there is a lot to talk about, I suppose I shall begin with my new friend Cool Baby. I built up a large amou...

So this is the first instalment of my Club Penguin Year Long Epic Quest in which I intend to let you guys know what is going down in Club Penguin . I signed myself up for a Years membership to Club Penguin, in that year I will keep you updated every single week up until my membership runs out. I will limit myself to one hour per day, this I feel is a decent time. This is my way of doing my bit...

I have been thinking about doing this for months now, I've just been trying to find the right game to do it with, and what better way to do it than with Disney's very own Club Penguin . Ok so basically whats happened is I went and bought a years worth of Club Penguin membership, this alone is a crazy statement, but it gets even crazier. Every Sunday up until thee last Sunday of September, I sha...

Video game consoles in 1996 where black or grey, there were a few exceptions but back then companies didn't really seem, to care what there console looks like. Consoles were just a thing you played games on, not something you would sit at and admire. When the N64 launched, it seemed to follow the same trend as consoles before it, and it's rival the Playstation . It stuck to dull colour pallet o...

Tow months ago I made a decision, instead of saving up money for an iMac I just went and bought it, well my dad bought it only on the condition I would pay him back the full £1000 in two months. At the time I was just so crazy about getting the iMac so I agreed, I mean how hard can it be to live on a budget right? Well as soon as I paid the first £500 and my rent and a few birthday presents for...

With the blog initiative I have been compelled to do some more blogs, I know that i already do update type blogs but It is about time I put some proper effort in to making blogs. So I came up with the idea of letting you guys know why the N64 is the best console ever made, in Part I I am going to start with is one of the best things about the N64, the carts. Nintendo had done well with cartridg...

I've been so lazy for the past few months, no wiki editing, no blogs, no reviews and hardly any comments longer than a "Yes" in the forums. It's time I get back on track, games are starting to come out and I need to get back in to the habit of doing this stuff. I've been generally pretty lazy with my games too, I gave up on playing through Bioshock , Alice Madness Returns and Sly Cooper in favo...

I am back, dude does it feel good to be back. My holiday was of course great and I really had a great time, but it still feels fantastic to be back home. For those unaware I went to Centre Parcs, it is a European based activity holiday park, it is in the middle of a forest and they have a whole range of activities. I took part in archery, badminton and a whole lot of swimming. There swimming po...

Ok so just a small blog to say going on holiday to Centre Parcs, which is famous for having expensive crap WiFi so I will not have accesses to any internet. They either make you pay to have it in your villa, even then its pretty bad. Or they have those old 1999 PC's which you put a £1 in to and then you get 15 minutes, most of that time is spent loading up pages because it is such an old PC. So...

So I have finished the second Saga of Larten Crepsley Book, "Ocean of Blood". The main character - Larten Crepsley - in the middle of this book decides that he wishes to speak like his mentor, his mentor never uses words like don't and can't. Instead he has mastered the way of speaking proper by using do not and can not. Every time he heard Larten utter any of the bad words he would pluck our a...

Farmville has been a pretty hot topic on the forums over the past couple of weeks as Matt and Steve have been tasked with seeing who can make the most money on FarmVille across a peroid of time. At first I was just watching it because hey, it is Giant Bomb video content, there were some people at this point who refused to watch it as they hated the interns, but I have no problem with the intern...

Darren Shan is byfar my favourite author, I am a huge Harry Potter fan and I love those books to pieces, but I much prefer the writing styles of Darren Shan. I was first introduced to Darren Shan years ago when I was going on holiday, my dad said he would buy me a few books for the airplane ride as the airplane ride was going to be long seeing as we would be going to America. At this point in m...

A week ago today I got my iMac, it is pretty hard to believe it's already been a week, it seems like I have had it for at least a month. I've been spending a large amount of time on my Mac, most of that time has been spent playing The Sims 3. Now before you start to bitch to me let me point out that I had a lot of fun playing Sims 3, it is a really good game and I've sunk about 30 + hours into...

No this is not some odd anime or some book that was written in 1876, the Vanderbosh's was my first family I created in The Sims 3 . I really could not tell you how long I have spent on The Sims 3, I got it the same day I got my Mac and have been playing it pretty much non stop since then. Most of today has been spent on The Sims 3, although at one point I did leave the house. Yes I decided I fe...

Today marks the first of my two days off and as I stated previously, I have spent a scary amount of time on my iMac . Here's the rundown! Woke up at 6:30AM. Walked my dog. Sat down at my iMac from like 7:00AM - 1:00PM. Played Shadows of the Damned for about an hour. (That game's pretty good expect a review when I've finished it) Sat back down at my iMac from 2:00PM - Now, Dude I don't know if y...

Now I don't know about you, but I'm not to big of a fan of Mondays. I work weekdays and of-course the week starts with a Monday, which means going back to work for another full week of changing countless nappies, dealing with screaming children and coming home covered in paint, snot, mashed potato and even some substances I have yet to identify! However, this Monday is actually one of the bette...

Wow, I can't even, I'm still in that really happy and shocked state of mind that people usually get when they have a new console or they won a competition, I have a fucking iMac! For those of you following me you will know that I have gone through a lot of trouble to get this machine, I will not go into to much detail (For that just go and read some of my old blogs) but yeah I have an iMac!

At this point in time I want to punch the Barclays bank in the fucking face. I am still battling it out with the bank, they need proof that I live in my house, despite having sent them countless forms and letters with my adress on they keep sending it back with minor errors. I sent them a letter from Barclays that is only a week old and has my full adress on it, but for some reason they still w...

For those of you that follow me I jumped right in the deep end and picked up my old Runescape account and bought a months membership. I played a lot of Runescape when I was back in school and kept playing for a few years, but eventully stopped and never touched it untill this past weekend. I had only ever been Free to play as well so not only was I going back to it but I was buying a months wor...

Runescape, why of why did I decide to check up on Runescape? Runescape means a lot to me, alongside Club Penquin, these were the two games that I spent some part of my life constanty on. I have put a lot ot time nto both of these and enjoyed them fully. After about 2 years I got bored of Club penquin and quit, I occasionally check it just to see how its changed (And to show off my red Proppella...

Jaws, Jaws was the first proper shark movie that had some good actors and for time it was quite scary. The plot was quite good and the shark itself was pretty cool, but now jump to 2011 and man oh man are there some bad shark movies. Here are some of the worst shark movies that exsist, some of these look as though there fan made trailers or some thing done in college but oh no, there for real!...

I love all of Apple's products, I don't care that there really expensive I just really do love them. I think it must be the simple and clean approach they have to there products, and the fact that there quite good looking machines. I have an iPod Shuffle and an iPhone 3GS, by the end of this year I also hope to have an iPad, the iPhone 5 and if possible a Macbook. This weekend I had my mind set...

The week is coming to a close only tommorow left and I'm scott free to bask in the game that is L.A Noir, until then however I wanted to atleast complete one of my two games that I have on the go. Those two games are Mass Effect 2 and Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts, now It was really not even a question, I could NOT beat Mass Effect 2 before the weekend, I enjoy all the side missions to much for...

Mass Effect 2, everybody I know loves the game, it even won Giant Bombs Game of the Year last year and countless other publications/websites Game of the Year too. I however never really enjoyed it that much, I bought it when I got my 360 in about Febuary(?) last year and I enjoyed it to an extent. I enjoyed the dialog tree's and the emphasis on social aspects, however the combat really put me o...

Before I was unleashed apon the world of 3D I thought it was a good idea, 3D seemed like it just make everything more interesting, but now after being exposed to it everywhere I look I don't want to see anything in 3D ever again. Every new Blu Ray release that seems to come out now feels the need to notonly have an annyoying cardboard slip cover, but to have that 3D one that makes it so you can...

I never played the original Goldeneye much, I only really played the multiplayer as I didn't own it. I went to an after school hang out club as a child, and everyday after school it was either Goldeneye 4 player multiplayer or Super Smash Bros 4 player multiplayer. I was happy to play either but I enjoyed Super Smash Bros more, but from time to time I did enjoy a good old game of Goldeneye. How...

Despite my 3DS delivery problems my 3DS arrived today at around 12, for those of you unaware Amazon screwed up the 3DS's that people pre-ordered off of there site. So even though I paid extra money for it to arrive on the 25th (UK Release Day) it did not! However Amazon have refunded me the money plus a little bit extra. But enough about my money woes, a real life 3DS is sitting on my desk next...

2010 is done, it has been a great year, my first full year in enployment, so as such a lot of games have come into my possession. Ok so remember this is my personal list, so don't go all ape shit when Halo Reachdosn't appear on this list. Also note that I own alot of games, and haven't had a lot of time t play certian games, prehaps if I would have spent more time with those games they would be...

Ok so as this is my first proper award time on Giant Bomb I need to do some explaining, before I do my game of the year awards I do my 2010 awards. Now you may be thinking whats this crap about! Well my 2010 awards are much bigger than my Game of the year awards as this list includes games released outside this year aswell as 2010 games. So for instance one catogory is game I spent the most tim...

...Just under 2 years ago I posted a blog that gave my introduction and I'd said I'd get to know Giant Bomb :). Well that was an utter lie lol, after doing that blog I couldn't get into Giant Bomb, It was so diffrent to Gamespot that I chicken out and went back to the safe site. Well a few months ago I got into the Giantbombcast and that got me back in, I started watching Quick Looks and review...

I never do know how to do these types of things as i don't know which areas to cover, but I'll give it a go and do my introduction.This blog will be aimed at two groups, but after this blog the second group will never be mentioned again. Well the first group is fellow Giant Bombers XD. Well Hizang is not my real name, I got Hizang from a character I made in The Original Sims (The Best One) and...
