Hands up if you were a fan of 2000AD back in the day? It’s still going, maybe not so strong, these days. I picked up a copy a while back and it’s reduced to a what seems like a few pages of stories with adverts thrown in here and there. It reminded me why I [...]
My female HDMI to male DVI-D connector arrived this morning. I’m still waiting on the Xbox HDMI cable and the PS3 component cables. The seller must have felt guilty about charging me so much for shipping that he gave me 3 plugs! I grabbed a HDMI cable from downstairs and plugged the Xbox 360 into [...]
So, last night’s gameplay was a game of two halves. I lucked out joining a reasonably good squad by myself. We lost the first game, but won the next two defending. Dave joined me during the second game where I defended the town in Arica Harbour with a tank. Only got 6 kills in that [...]
MILEYCYRUSTHEVIRUS does a lot of things right in this video: He reloads in cover He flanked 3 opposing players and took them out starting with the one at the back He jumped and dodged out of the way He doesn’t look down the sights for close range kills. The sensitivity of his controller is definitely [...]
Modern Warfare 2 spec ops is great fun when you have friends and family over. MW2 multiplayer may have it’s problems but today all my family and in-laws were over to celebrate my son’s birthday. A few games of spec ops was called for with so many games players in the house! On the bridge [...]
I dodged a roadkill death last night in Battlefield Bad Company 2. As a defender I was shooting at a UAV from afar when I ran low on ammo for the M60. I ducked behind cover to reload and something made me look around while doing so. There was the UAV hovering by my shoulder! [...]
Joystiq reviewed the X Scorch 360 I mentioned previously. It’s a mouse and nunchuck device you can use with the Xbox 360 (or PC) that takes the place of the Xbox controller. I would dearly love if consoles support mice and keyboards as gaming devices so I had high hopes for this. They weren’t too [...]
I’m all excited about Halo again. I thought that Halo ODST was a pile of pooh. I enjoyed the campaign in Halo 3 but never played either game multiplayer which appears to be where these games really shine. Shame about ODST but Halo Reach and all it’s game modes and match making could rock online [...]
When you’re just not up to playing Bad Company 2 online, fire up the single player game and start the first mission again. In that square where you first come across an enemy tank there are 2 ammo refills. When you’ve taken care of the tank and accompanying infantry there’s something very relaxing and soothing [...]
