Ico: another reason to own a PS2.
My PS2 had been gathering dust recently but earlier this week I dug out two things; my PS2 wireless controller (made by Sega, would you believe) and my copy of Ico. The current generation... Oh no, another Halo 3 blog... but at least this one is spoiler free!
I finally had enought time to "finish the fight". 11pm on Saturday night to 7am on Sunday morning was one long Halo 3 playing session (albeit with a break between about 3-4am). I was determined... The obligatory Halo 3 blog?
Don't groan. I know that by now you've probably heard from at least a dozen different sources how awesome Halo 3 is. And there's no way I can change your mind, one way or another, so I'm not... 25th September 2007 - Now playing....
I've bought three new games over the past week or so, and here's my first impressions of them. First up, Colin McRae: DiRT for the Xbox 360. In the US the game was simply called DiRT, but it's... Another collection clear out...
Spent more time today trying to thin out my games collection. And, inevitably, I started looking at all the N64 controllers... all 25 of them! For anyone who's not aware, the reason I have... Shadow of the Colossus
The setting for Shadow of the Colossus is a huge deserted landscape, a world that has lain in ruins for centuries. Your character's quest is to rescue a girl whom he carried to this land in a... Big collection clear out!
Decided to bite the bullet yesterday and go through my games. I have too many, more than I'll ever find the time to play, so it's time that some got sold off. Many of the games I'll be selling or... Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition
I've had this game for a while now, but it's only in the past few weeks that I've really got into it. I first played Resident Evil 4 in 2005 when it was released for the Gamecube. Now, of... What I done today
Not much about gaming today... but don't worry, normal service will resume tomorrow. :) Anyway, now that you've been forewarned, I can tell you what Mrs Alxbly and I got up to today. We went to... Now playing...
Been doing a fair bit of gaming today. I felt a bit sentimental so I dug out Doom for the first time in about a year. The version I was playing was the extra content original Doom that's on the... Xbox 360 paranoia!
Xbox 360 owners have a great way to scare themselves, and it's not rollercoasters or watching a scary movie. It involves looking at their 360 console, then at all the 360 games they own, then... Zombie films, good and bad (minor plot spoilers).
I'm a bit of a zombie fan. I love most games with zombies and quite like some zombie films too. This week I seen two films I hadn't seen before, they've both been out a while so apologies if this... Next Generation
What makes a game "next generation"? It's a question people are still asking and the gaming press seems obscessed that each game that trumps the last is truely next generation. In this blog I'll... Racing fever
Most of my gaming this week has involved cars, drift, boost and engine noise... and I just never tire of it! Tire! Get it? :oops: *groan* Thinking that I simply must have a good selection of... It's time to move on.
Your first love... it's something that you never forget. My first love was a girl called Joanne. I'd seen her at school and she was just everything I ever wanted... She was really pretty (and I... Happy Birthday Goldeneye 007
25th August 1997; the US and European release date of Goldeneye 007. It funny to think that was ten years ago yesterday. To celebrate Goldeneye's tenth birthday I'm gonna play through the game... My favorite games of all time
When you've been gaming for over twenty years it becomes very difficult to decide what your favorite games of all time are. Still, in a moment of boredom I did scribble down the games that... Busy, busy, busy!
Been really busy since my last blog entry... sadly, I've not been all that busy playing my Wii. I finished Zelda and my Wii hasn't really been touched since. Excite Truck seems quite good though,... Me and my Wii
On Friday I took my first step into the new generation of games consoles by buying... a Wii! So, what's the first thing you do when you get a Wii? You spend at least half an hour unpacking... Anniversary?
So, Wii is nearly upon us.  The majority of Gamespot members will have the chance to buy one on the 19th November.  However, since I live in the UK, I'll have to wait until the 8th December.  I...
