Linklog Current Status“The soldier to come is both natural and unnatural. I waited to be called up. You stay fit; stay focused, and stay ready. I wore the blacks and grays. I blended in. But the call never came. It never came.” — Fringe, Bad Dreams
We see patterns, connections. That’s what human brains are good for. I’m [...]
It doesn’t go unremarked that, 10-years after the introduction of the floppy-less iMac, there are still a few applications using the apparently anachronistic icon of the 3½-inch diskette to represent the concept of saving a file.
I have no objections to it, myself. It’s a lovely little hieroglyph that reminds me how awesome computers seemed to [...]
According to the Sunday Mirror:
Evil mum Karen Matthews has been given a £300 PlayStation in her jail cell as a reward for being a model prisoner.
Crikey. I can’t justify getting a PS3 for myself right now, and the state is just handing them out to people the tabloids are calling, without apparent fear of [...]
“Did you finish Fahrenheit yet?”
“Not yet. Played it last night. Got to the bit where one of the cops has sex in a train carriage with the reanimated corpse of the fugitive they were pursuing.”
“Oh, that’s really close to the end.”
“Ok, right. I wasn’t sure if it was one of those inevitable events, or [...]
Edge magazine has a big article about the XBOX 360 this month (the one in the gold Zelda box). I felt I had to share this part with you:
Allard takes Tony Hawk as a starting point and suggests different ways for non-gamers to get involved. A girl watching her brother play might be affronted by [...]
Apparently parents and shopkeepers are confused about the fact that
games that have been rated “18″ by the BBFC are not to be sold to persons
below that age. Clearly it’s the clarity of the labelling (which in the case of BBFC rated games, is the same as that for films) that’s the problem here. The [...]
“Hey Lee, what have you been up to.”
“Playing the new Grand Theft Auto, not much else.”
“So is San Andreas any good?”
“I just beat a guy to death with a 20 inch purple dildo and escaped in a helicopter.”
“So… good then?”
“Probably in my ‘Top Ten’.”
“Oh, what are your others then?”
“Um. I don’t know, give me [...]
I just noticed that Datel will soon be launching a new version of the Action Replay MAX cartridge for the PlayStation2.
As well as the other game hacking, DVD multi-region naughtiness of the
previous version, this one has CD-R support for MP3 and DivX as well as a
emulator for Sega Megadrive/Genesis ROMs and an online IM/chatroom/forum feature. The EVO edition also includes a [...]
At around 7am I’m sitting in my flat, controller in hand surrounded by empty cans of Red Bull and I realise I don’t have the self-control needed for videogames.
I think I meant to stop at about 10pm, but it’s Easter and not like I had anything to do. And with my flatmate over in California [...]
I used to be heavily into videogames. I spent most of my school and college years playing them, to the expense of doing any real work. But when I got my first post-university job I just stopped playing. The PlayStation got packed away, to resurface only occasionally, almost three years ago.
I had been [...]
