Screenshot of the week: My Spartan

By Iain 18 November 2010VideogamesNo Comments

Not especially dramatic this week I'm afraid, just a nice look at my custom Spartan armour. I went with the Mjolnir Mark V helmet, the old Halo: Combat Evolved classic. No extra attachments on the helmet, I like the basic look of it. I use the "Commando" chest piece because it looks cool from the front with the two pouches,…

I has job

By Iain 15 November 2010Reflections, VideogamesNo Comments

Yes, that's right. After being unemployed for a very long time, I have gained employment at Asda, on the Home and Leisure department. I had no idea there was even a vacancy on the department until they mentioned it in the "Asda Magic" group selection thing I had last week. That in itself was pretty good fun - rather than…

Screenshot of the week: Happy Elite is happy

By Iain 11 November 2010VideogamesNo Comments

It's funny - I was watching the replay of this game of Elite Slayer and I was actually bashing another Elite's face in when I noticed this massive cheesy grin. Maybe he likes to bash. It makes him happy. You can find other Screenshots of the Week on here by using the Screenshot of the Week tag.

Golden brown, texture like sun

By Iain 7 November 2010Reflections, VideogamesNo Comments

So Claire was going out so she asked me to watch her shortbread and take it out of the oven when it was golden brown. I kept an eye on it while playing Lips with Lewis, took it out when it was nice and golden, but later found out I had killed it because it was in there for too…

Screenshot of the week: Yum, Spostrich Burger

By Iain 28 October 2010VideogamesNo Comments

There are these creatures on Reach called Moa that look a bit like Ostriches. Being spacemen, fighting aliens in outer space, we came to call them Space Ostriches, which over time has been shortened to Spostrich. Imagine my surprise when I found you could actually buy Spostriche burgers! You can find other Screenshots of the Week on here by using…

“My Random Encounter with Toxic”

By Iain 19 October 2010Internet, VideogamesNo Comments

This was originally posted on GRcade by Zenigame, but for those of you who missed it, I've decided to reproduce it here. So got put into a game on Big Team Slayer and as the game was starting I noticed a certain Gamertag on the opposing team. "toxic rf". Nah, it couldn't be, could it? Toxic? :o So from that…

Forge is so much fun

By Iain 17 October 2010Reflections, VideogamesNo Comments

Making maps is just so relaxing, really takes my mind off the massive problem that is not having a job right now. Headrush was finished a while back, and a week or so ago I finished Quadro, which is a quasi-remake of Relic, or at least, a re-imagination of it's core principles (flag up really high, go get it). Then…
