Internet culture distilled
As you know I played the Bad Company 2 BETA and both loved and hated it at the same time. I preordered the limited edition of the full game and upon getting it I found that my Single Player save games would crash on load and that I couldn’t join multiplayer servers due to the [...] more

As most of you know by now, I love me a good RPG and I hate me a bad console to PC port. The original Mass Effect had me raging due to its console-ish feel and its supreme bugginess that basically made the game completely unplayable unfortunately. But dammit, I’m a sucker for torture…so I got [...] more

Although it could hardly be considered a marathon at 12 episodes of only 12 minutes each…we managed to get through all of Doujin Work in 3 hours. We were meant to start with 7 people, but one cbf…and one couldn’t join due to internet connection issues. But we had a team of 5: - Dante - Fireryda - Affian - [...] more

Thankfully the beta for BFBC2 is easily joinable with free keys floating about left right and centre…But I have to say thanks to 28thMB|Morph for giving me a heads up on where to get them from GPForums. First things first…I KNOW THIS IS A BETA AND I KNOW I SHOULDN’T BE JUDGING IT UNTIL RELEASE! Seriously, [...] more

Over the last week I decided to pick up and watch Toradora from start to finish as I had all the episodes lying around. What I expected was a romantic comedy slice-of-life anime that I enjoy so much…and it started out so well. The humour was on the mark and the characters were well portrayed but [...] more

You might have noticed a few days ago that I posted an article on a favourite game of mine called Star Ocean: The Second Story. For a long time now I’ve had about 9 episodes of the Star Ocean EX Anime series but I never got round to watching them until I started playing Star [...] more

Seeing as the current gaming industry fails and that I’m trying to get funds for Global Agenda, I decided to play games that I used to love…so I picked up Star Ocean and Guild Wars. The former marks one of the best RPG’s ever made that even spawned an anime, the latter you all know about [...] more

Right, being the pathetic halfarsed fanboy that I am, I couldn’t resist getting the latest K-ON! episode which apparently is a teaser to season 2. Beware, this short review thing is a bit spoilerish…but kinda not really…who really cares…its K-ON! Anyway I picked it up because I’m bored and cbf watching Moetan like I should be doing [...] more

Right so as promised (if not a few days late) I’m now going to post my impressions of Durarara! or Dullalala or Dulala-fucked if I know…srsly there’s so many different names for it so I’m going to stick with Durarara! Duarararaarararara comes across as a semi-slice of life anime following this bloke Mikado Ryugamine (what a [...] more

In feeble attempt to try and salvage some excitement out of this seasons anime, I have decided to pick up Sora no woto and Durarara. Today I will focus on the former with the latter joining tomorrow. So, episode 1 of Sora no woto. Firstly, let me say I’m a little hesitant to either recommend this anime [...] more
