There’s no point doing a review of any kind as the film has been out for quite some time now, and I’m not going to go into any kind of detail necessary to write a review. What I will do though, is offer up some thoughts of mine, when I discovered this masterpiece late one [...]

As an avid Paramore fan, I’m obviously going to be interested when I hear about new material. I was happening to browse Paramore’s Official site and I came across a post about their next single.
It’s going to be called ‘Decode’, and will debut on the movie soundtrack for the upcoming 2008 film- Twilight. Apparently the [...]

Make your PLAYSTATION Eye work on Windows- Now this is cool, props off to the very talented guy who made this work; some great backwards-engineering. Obviously the camera will work on any computer potentially, but Sony has not made any drivers for anything apart from the PLAYSTATION 3. The question is, will any computer users [...]

LittleBigPlanet: Public Beta Madness!- Sounds great, especially for those (me included) who missed out on the Eurogamer giveaway. Shame I’m now about 50 miles away from my PS3. I’ll just have to wait till my copy arrives, and when I’m back home for the weekend.

I thought it would be interesting from time to time to show (completely anonymously) who’s visiting this blog, what they’re visiting, and how they’re doing it. Let’s take a look shall we?

Google’s Android mobile unveiled- Looks interesting, but time will tell for ascertaining how it fares against the iPhone.

That sentiment, and other clichés. I’m here all week.
Soo… I was perusing round a ‘Forest Shop’ which is run by the Forestry Commission. Like you do. It seems they have gone eco-crazy since the last time I went into one of their forests. However seen as they are responsible for maintaining the UK’s forests and [...]

Orange and their mysterious website- Can anyone tell me what’s going on?! It’s billed as ‘The World’s First Internet Balloon Race’ and it seems to either be run, or sponsored by Orange.
