Finally manged to removed the screws on the back of my Madcatz FightStickPro, and install the octagonal plate 🙂 I’ve had a quick play through with Ibuki, and I’m very impressed! Since learning stick I’ve had trouble Ibuki’s Kunai, so never able to pull off her vortex 🙁 This now isn’t an issue, and all half and quarter circle moves were pulled off on the first attempt 🙂 Looking forward…

Tradegy, for the 2nd time I’ve lost my drone 🙁 It was so much fun to play with, quite upset about losing the SD card. This is a video recovered from the 1st time I lost it, returned by a darling neighbour who answered my poster campaign 🙂 I was blown away by the height achieved, from the ground it looked the size of a sparrow! It was taken away…
For about the same price as a console game I’ve just picked up a Hubsan H107C X4C Mini Drone w/ HD Camera from Helipal.com, and it is worth every penny; in fact This is the drone you were looking for, move along 🙂 I haven’t yet had the opportunity to test the camera as yet, but I have had the drone on open air and indoor test flights. The battery…

I think I’ve posted this sentiment before, as the remake of Shadow of the Collosus was my motivation to pick up a PS3, I think The Last Guardian will be the catalyst for me to purchase a PS4. Although it seems like 2014 won’t be the year, unless Rockstar release GTAV on the next gen platform 🙂 Kataku Report: The Last Guardian Won’t Be at the Tokyo Game Show Are…

I thnk the background static has been going on for a while, I’ve been ignoring it like tinatus 😉 Today though, I had had enough, and needed to find a solution. One quickk search later I found the cause, on some update the mic’s had been activated in Alsamixer, a couple of clicks later, all sorted, clear sound restored 🙂 Ask Ubuntu: Constant noise in speakers and headphones The most…

Again late to the party, but I’m off to a desert island for a week, and I needed to pick up enough digital luggage to get me through. I don’t know if it is good or bad news, but I installed Minecraft Pocket Edition on my Nexus 7, and it has become my new portable vice. 🙂 Before now I have only really breifly experimented with Minecraft, taking the odd…

Booted Child of Light(wonder why critics rateit 82% on xbox one, and 74% on 360?), on xbox live, what a juxta to the 2 last arcade games I tried! I can recognise the shared engine with Valiant Hearts, although the character movement is much more fluid… plus the right thumb stick controlled willow-the-wisp like firefly entity is a wonderful addition, like a playable Navi 🙂 The text dialogue is beautiful,…

So to continue today’s xbox live endeavour, I’ve chosen 2, 2D platform games to jump about with, Abyss Odysey, and Blood of the Werewolf. 1st impressions? Due to the clumsy controls I doubt I’ll be playing Abyss Odysey again; I’ve too many games to play to leave out the ones with non intuative shnky controls. Blood of the Werewolf, at first seems clunky, the levels are simple jump and shoot……

The coolest original content on YouTube, ever: Alpha – Street Fighter Assassin’s Fist (link updated 20200731) As a fan of the game series, and one who appreciates martial arts, this rocks! 12 episodes of live action Street Fighter 🙂 Written and directed by Joey Ansah (who also plays the role of Akuma), Assassin’s Fist focuses on the early days of Street Fighter mainstays Ryu and Ken. Though perhaps not intentional,…

Started playing the Ubisoft xbox live version of Valiant Hearts: The Great War. I’m enjoying the easy pace, simple puzzles and challenges, and brief history of The Great War. From the wiki Valiant Hearts: The Great War is a puzzle adventure video game developed by Ubisoft Montpellier and published by Ubisoft. The game is inspired by letters written during the Great War and has four characters on the battlefield help…

So I’m asking myself this question: Is what is on a purchased disc your own? I recently booted up Street Fighter x Tekken, while working through my fighting games, and promptly remembered that half the characters are missing. Don’t get me wrong, they’re there on the roster… just not playable! Usually this is a eh oh moment… but in this instant I couldn’t play Blanka! WTF is a Street Fighter…

Started playing the Lego Movie Xbox 360 game, and it didn’t dissappoint 🙂 It follows the plot of the film scenes, and is heaps of fun. Will I finish it? Perhaps not. I’ve not enjoyed a Lego title to completion, after the Star Wars release… but stranger things happen [Rating: 3]
Eek! received an email that Google couldn’t get to my robot.txt file, checked the WordPress part of the site, to find the error: Error Establishing a Database Connection. I was preparing to hunker down for the afternoon to find a solution, but the first result from DuckDuckGo pretty much solved it for me 🙂 From Beginner’s guide to WordPress: How to Fix the Error Establishing a Database Connection in WordPress…

Finally I have the Piratebox v1.0 working on the TP-Link 3020 🙂 I had tried redownloading the install_piratebox.zip file, and the 3020 firmware, and running through the step by step instructions with no luck 🙁 I sat like a doting puppy watching the flashing green lights, leaving the box for some times up to 45 mins! Once I dug into the log file though, I could see where the install…

I find it hard to believe that I have never tried this before! I find enterring lengthy text messages via joystick into XBOX LIve timely. Today I plugged in a keyboard I have been using with a Raspberry Pi into the XBOX to see if it would work. Wonders of technology, keyboard typing without the need for drivers! Not sure of how long the nolvelty will last before I revert…

I recieved a Sanwa octaganol plate for my my Madcatz Fightstick Pro today, from an Ebay purchase. Not sure of how it will change my Street Fighter game play, but I am keen to give it a try 🙂 One issue, I can’t get the back plate off of the joystick to fit it 🙂

I can’t believe it’s a year from when I first started playing with Amazon’s free hosting deal. It probably makes sense to use the service for a blog like this, think it would probably be cheaper… but what I’m paying for is the support when it all goes Pete Tong What really impressed me was how easy it is to cancel a setup, heaps easier than setting one up! Simply…
