I’ve now played a couple of hours of The Last of US, hoping it will be a game I’ll play to completion. I am only early in to the story though, just finding my fist Clacker corpse, and **SPOLIER ALERT** why didn’t I read anywhere that Sarah dies! 😉 I finally picked up Hawx-2 last weekend. If there is one genre I feel as not received the quality and quantity…

A great update to the new look Android Gmail app this weekend! The delete button is back, without going through the sub menu. Genius… but how it passed through user testing intrigues me?
This will be interesting, as the OS should be easy to emulate… still upset they run with this and ditch Reader though 😉 Will Google become the next Nintendo, meaning 3rd place in the console market share… but surely they can never have bigger titles than Mario and Zelda? ign – Android Games Console

Google reader only has a couple of days left, puzzled as all why it’s becoming defunct. Finally I’ve found a suitable replacement g reader Feeds are easily imported, heaps of options, and I like the UI look and functionality.

Currently installing The Last of US, I haven’t been this intrigued by a release in a while, I’m looking forward to it!

[Rating:4.5] My first endeavor into space and linux gaming, and I’m loving it! I did pick up a couple of PS3 games to play last week… but I’ve forgotten what they were (Yakuza 3, buggered if I can remember the other :)) all of my gaming, and blogging time has been taken up playing with rockets. 😀 So if you haven’t guessed yet, I’ve been enthralled with the Kerbal Space…

I don’t know how I missed this on launch… or after spending a little time playing with it today, I may have deleted it on launch and forgot about it 🙂 There are only 2 reasons I boot up my xbox, for Street Fighter and kinect games. And after burning off a bit of sweat on sports titles this afternoon, I started messing about with the voice prompts. One thing…

– Jet Pack: The classic ZX Spectrum game converted #2 top score for the month, not quite top 50, will try harder 🙂 This is one of my all time favourite titles, I love the simplicity, the challenge, and sense of achievement. It’s a great simple concept that works so well. I’ve been considering for a while to convert it to the Android platform, with only a little experience it’s…
Will we see this man as a spokesman for xbox again? Techcrunch discussion Update: Irony approved, video removed 😉

I’ve been using tor for a few years, but have never had the motivation to shell out for vpn.. I mean, seriously what do I do that warrants tracking, I post all I play with here… until I found free vpn 🙂 This was until I came across Open VPN A free of charge (optional donation) service is offered, with servers in the UK, US, or EU. This give an…

I really do believe Job’s is delusional in the comments made in the below film, and is just trying to push the benefits of his products. Don’t get me wrong, I love the apps on my phone, but the driving reason it comes out of my pocket is to search

A couple or years ago I set my xbox Rock Band drums up via (Linux) Ubuntu, to play different drum samples. Many Linux installations have occurred since now and then, so that work was lost. Now I’m going to try and set it up again, but this time I have bigger ideas, not just my drums but I want to look into utilising my 8 button street fighter stick 🙂…

I haven’t entertained the idea of leaving a google OS on my Nexus 4 until hearing about the tracking information, as this would lose functionality compared with 4.2.2…. until now 🙂 Cyanogenmod has been my OS of choice, after acquiring my Nexus1. So I’m quite looking forward to the task of installing the latest version, and finding life beyond google. Not sure of how I feel about ditching Ingress though,…

Friends B’day tomorrow, never know what to get her. So what could cheer her up more than a rendition of Happy Birthday, played on the Stylophone? Flowers and chocolates maybe, but we can pick them up en route. I’m trying a different way to annotate the half notes, this way makes it easy for me to read. Happy Birthday 3-3-4-3-6-5 3-3-4-3-7-6 3-3-10-8-6-5-4 85-85-8-6-7-6 The Imperial March (Darth Vader’s Theme) 7-7-7…

[Rating: 4] I put in a few hours of driving last week on Grid2, have elevated through the rankings, and picked up a couple of new sweet looking cars. After booting, and seeing the Activision logo memories came flooding back… of Grid, before it was Grid, the TOCA days! TOCA (Touring Car Championship) goes back to the late 90’s, and was the premier driving / racing game on the Playstation……

[Rating:4] It’s been wonderful playing DoA5 and Grid2 this week, like getting reacquainted with old friends 🙂 The DoA play style has showed me a new way, beyond the 3 kick & punch strengths of Street Fighter and the left and right Tekken way. Having the punch, kick and hold, throw transforms the game. I understand characters have parries in other games, Gouken’s is one of my favourite finishing moves,…

https://medium.com/state-of-play/caca1560b351 Here is a great article, giving a top line summary of the extent of the surveillance of american citizens. Everyone has heard the patriot act after 9 11, and everyone knew what the government had planned, we all just went into the denial. We find our lives away to google, facebook, and apple, not caring about the personal information we published in the cloud. Now shock horror that this…
