Little Bats a-sleepin’… Someone finish him off!

I’ve just finished the absolutely excellent Batman: Arkham Asylum and would recommend it to anyone and everyone! If you don’t have it already, go out and buy it. Right now! :)

Merry Christmas 2009!

I would just like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas 2009!

I’m going to be eating mince pies, drinking beer and wine, responsibly recycling wrapping paper and maybe getting a bit of gaming in too.

Michael Jackson R.I.P.

There are not many, if any, musicians that cause the same level of impact on the world as Michael Jackson. Over the last couple of days every news channel has been reporting on him and every music channel and radio station has been playing his music.

You can even hear people playing his music walking down the street and out of every car with it’s windows down.

He wasn’t a stranger to the gaming world either: The Moonwalker game was released on the Sega Master System, he had a cameo appearance in Space Channel 5 (as Space Michael if you are wondering!) and he was even, allegedly, responsible for the soundtrack to Sonic 3.

I don’t think many people in the world cannot be familiar with at least one of his songs and know the lyrics.

If the best tribute to Michael is to play his music and you are looking for the right game. Dig out your copy of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, grab a motorbike, turn up the volume and blast out Billie Jean!

Chamone!! R.I.P. MJ!

Starting “blogtro.exe” for the first time…

It only happens about once every two years but that time has come around again… This site has been updated!

Yet again I’ve started completely from scratch as my last effort failed miserably. I did have a plan. The problem was that only after I’d started coding it dawned on me that it was going to take months (if not years) to get most of the site up and running. So it eventually fell back into dormancy.

But I’ve been kicked back into action now. Mainly due to the fact that the domain and hosting both needed renewing and unfortunately my webhosting provider had just ceased trading which was less then ideal.

To cut a long story short I’ve switched servers, dumped the old site and it’s back with a vengence in full blog-a-vision thanks to Wordpress. So you should see some regular changes on here… I’m hoping weekly, or even daily if I pull my finger out! :)

So whats coming? Well, I definately need to do something with the site design as it’s looking very plain and vanilla. The GIMP is on standby!

Most of any new actual content will probably be primarily video game related as I’m currently in a mad gaming phase but, to be honest, I’m just going to “spew forth” ideas and see which direction I go in. Everything is subject to change as always.

Special thanks to Richard Dolby of Lincolnshire Website Design for providing the new hosting and helping me out with the necessary DNS and domain registrar changes.

Also thanks to my previous hosts (Ghoulnet) for providing years of quality service.
