Well the first things first. The new job is going well there is lot of work to be done and it's easy to think that you can build Rome in a day but these things take time (unless your playing age of empires that is ). The only thing really is that the offices are brand spanking new and stuck in the middle of nowhere. So in this whole big office complex there is only me, my colleague (who works from home mostly) and a lass on the front desk as the other offices need to be taken up. It's very quiet and sometimes a tad too quiet. I would work from home but that would never work! It would turn into some continual battle between me, vats of coffee and my 360 making eyes at me all day LOL


Gaming wise I'm busy compiling a list of future (Birthday and Christmas) games I want and even being as merciless as I can be it's still far to long! Why do they insist on throwing out all the great games at this time of year? In the summer I'm hard pushed to find one game never mind the bounty which awaits me!


I have also seemed to have stumbled across a solution to my games freezing problem. I looked on a forum and one suggestion was to change the settings so the game doesn't boot from start up and instead you initiate it from the menu. I was as sceptical as those looking at the current power sharing in Zimbabwe but to my surprise it seems to have helped!


This means I have finished (well the campaign anyway) of C&C KW and have now moved on to DMC4. Upon starting this game and viewing some of the cut scenes I have come to the conclusion that CAPCOM is one of, if not my favourite developer! The games are always so well presented and the art styling and direction are so well polished you can almost see your face in them! I have also fallen in love with the female lass (whose name escapes me now) who kicks off on the bridge. What a woman! LOL nothing like having a woman like that being by your side to step in say after a drunken night out. You could be in a kebab shop, you accidentally nudge that large guy in front making him spill his meat, salad and chill sauce special all down himself! Now any other day of the week this would have ended ...well...badly! But in she steps, cue matrix style slow motion and the resulting kebab meat and salad carnage that would ensue and all the time not getting a blemish on her oh so tight catsuit LOL anyway.... until then I have LBP to keep me happy this month good times

Yay! Glad to hear that you have managed to get your xbox to work again! I have seen you playing DMC. I haven't finished the campaign on that yet - it gets pretty hard going forward - don't you think? I am not the best button masher in the world and there appears to be an awful lot of that!

Gotta laugh at your goggling at the woman on the bridge a teenage boy (and 30 something evidently) fantasy if ever I have seen one! DMC is a tough one for the gamerscore as well, so good luck with slogging that one out....

Hello wavey,
LOL for talking to me about slogging away aren't you the one trying for the 50 hours on Pinata Yeah it's ok I must say after my extended play last night on it I'm getting into it a bit more. The button mashing I don't mind (I'm a koei fan LOL) but the platforming well thats a diffrent matter Yeah it is going to be hard on the GP score but seeing as I have to finish it about 40 times I'm sure I will give it a good stab as long as I get 500+ and enjoy the game it's job done! Looking for my 30k early next year Hows batman going?


Oh and I will say it again ... wow what a woman LOL

Don't remind me on the 50 hour achievement what is that all about. I hate ones like that, but now that I am at 980 with only that one to go I just gotta have it!! Lego Batman is good - better than the mediocre score GS gave it IMO. It isn't any different to Indiana Jones and Star Wars, so not sure why they went from 8.0 to 6.5 or whatever it was. (I may of course be biased as I love LEGO!!!

At least the 50 hour achievement gives you 20gamerpoints, in FIFA09 50hours = 1 yes ONE gp. Crazy. So Anabub with a large, devoid of people office, Im assuming your working in the nude?

LOL maccacd why yes naked Thursdays are in full swing!!! 1 gp! Thats an insult... yet another reason for me to avoid footy games like the plague.. I just can't play them

I played the demo to DMC4 and thought it was pretty sweet. The visuals are amazing. Have you tried Ninja Gaiden? That might be right up your alley if you like that sort of thing although that's another gamerscore b!tch. I think you have to clock it 7 times to get them all. What a pain in the arse!

Hello INKling,

It's an ok game I must say kinda growing on me but I'm not a fan of having to beat games over and over. Much prefer to finish em and trade em so I don't lose to much money TBH but I my as well try the demo ..cheers

Good to hear the jobs going well. I might try that trick with my Lost Odyssey.

Hello BBS I'm sorry mate but that disk you have with LO is just busted I had the same trouble. Why not rent it and then see if that 4th disk works with your 360 and then so a swap? Oh and the 4th disk is a real slog fella ... so easy to miss things but fun!
