Format: Xbox 360 Developer: Platinum Games Publisher: Sega Release: January 2010 Now, I don't know if you know this (err...), but I'm a bit of a Devil May Cry fan. I bought a PS2 solely for the original Devil May Cry, I put myself through the torture that was through Devil May Cry 2, I loved Devil May Cry 3…

Corned beef and tomato sandwiches

Posted inReflectionsNo Comments
I wasn't feeling too great yesterday, I was all bunged up, feeling like something was trying to slowly burst out of my head. But, because she's generally the greatest person in the world, Jane was totally lovely yesterday, she made me corned beef and tomato sandwiches for lunch. Took me right back to my Nan's house - corned beef and…
My brother’s blanket

My brother’s blanket

Posted inMusic, ReflectionsNo Comments
Well, there is my brother's blanket in all it's glory, being modelled so nicely by my brother himself, but what on Earth does it have to do with this Massive Attack track Unfinished Sympathy? So I was watching MTV one day (back in the days when MTV only played music all day rather than non-stop repeats of Pimp My Ride,…

Oh wow, would you look at that. We're the 13th best source for LOLcats on the internet! Not bad considering all I used to do was copy and paste my weekly favourite from icanhazcheesburger. (Please note, I have since removed over 100 posts that were simply copied and pasted from the various icanhazcheesburger websites. We are no longer the 13th…

Spiral Onion Loaf

Went over to Southampton to see the guys yesterday, it was lovely. Jasmine is crawling now - slowly - but she's getting there. Her teeth are starting to come through and she looks so much like my Mum. I'm glad she was in a better mood than last time I went over, she was all smiles and laughs - last…

Lost

Posted inFilms/TV, InternetNo Comments
How long is an episode of Lost? About 45 minutes. How long does it take me, roughly, to download the latest episode? About an hour. How much time do I spend clicking links here and there reading about the latest rumours, the latest theories, the answers to the questions, the in-depth commentaries by people who read far too much into…

Why I don’t write reviews anymore

Posted inInternet, ReflectionsNo Comments
In light of my comments on the old reviews I republished as part of my 5 year anniversary thing, I thought I'd expand upon the reasons why I don't write reviews anymore. First, I don't think I'm very good at writing them - so I don't write them! Secondly, I don't feel that the writing style of a traditional review…

Reading round-up for February

Posted inBooksNo Comments
Or, "Stuff what I read last month". Once a month is enough for this, I reckon. Writing up my thoughts on a scheduled day once a week would be too risky (I may not have finished a book that week!), and writing up my meagre thoughts as soon as I've finished something would mean lots of little posts dotted around.…

Devil May Cry 3 Review

Posted inInternet, Reviews, VideogamesNo Comments
This Devil May Cry 3 review was written for Poopgang back in 2005 (or thereabouts). Unfortunately I've lost the original images I made for it (I liked to use thin vertical slices of image back then, to break the chunks of text up), but I'll pop a few relevant ones in, just so it's not a fucking massive block of…

Devil May Cry 2 review

Posted inInternet, Reviews, VideogamesNo Comments
I remember how bad this game was. I remember how hurt I was. It still hurts. Format: Playstation 2 Developer: Capcom Publisher: Capcom Release: March 2003 A good sequel will add new aspects to the original. New techniques, new weapons, new characters… Devil May Cry adds all these things in the form of Lucia, an alternate playable character with new…
