Doctor Who: Is the Doctor becoming a Dalek?

September 19, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 3 Comments

This is the first, but not only, theory that follows the question “Are the lights going out?“. The post is speculation, and the author has no special insight, nor does Brian Bloodaxe who champions this theory for Geek Native. That said, if you’re lagging behind your Doctor Who viewing then this post may contain spoilers. […]

September 18, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Have you noticed the re-occurring presence of flickering lights in season 7 of Doctor Who? The rest of this post is just speculation. We don’t know what’s going to happen next in Doctor Who.

Settlers of Catan Pizza

September 18, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

This is kinda cool. That said and speaking as a huge pizza fan (a fan of huge pizza) I’m not sure how tasty this Settlers of Catan pizza actually looks. I think I see olives on it. Olives? What next? Adding mushroom? Urg. P.S. It’s probably a good thing board games aren’t made from pizza. […]

The Borderlands 2 launch trailer and bungee jump

September 17, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Borderlands 2 is nearly here. I’ve been busy blasting at Handsome Jack’s face in the hope to win something. If you’re braver than me and living in London then you could always try and jump off a crane.
