Seems like the computer might be willing to forgive you – in the name of science. Mind you, maybe she forgives you in the same way she intends to share her cake with you! This trailer for Portal 2 aired at the Sony Conference during the 2010 E3. We’re expecting the sequel to be available […]
A fanboy’s look at LittleBigPlanet 2
I’m no good at platform games (I always fall off the jumps) and I’ve no creative ability (can’t translate my mind’s eye into reality) but for some reason I really enjoy LittleBigPlanet. I think that’s a great pointer towards the success of the game. I’m not the only one who enjoys the game. There are […]
Apple versus Nintendo – what about the WiiPad?
This isn’t a WiiPad. Yup; there’s an iPad. Yup; there’s a WiiMote. It’s actually a jailbroken iPad being used to run SNES games. In this case the iPad is playing Super Mario World.

Sadie O’Down, Insignificant Other, versus Kratos, God of War 3
I don’t always think Sony gets it right with their TV advertising. This ad for God of War 3, however, is fantastic. Actually; it might not be Sony behind this one – could be the developers Santa Monica Studio – but my hunch is that it’s Sony. Why is the ad any good? Because it’s […]

Wow. The PSP gets a comic store
At first I thought I was going to be annoyed – that the US was getting a comic store for the PSP and that here the UK we’d get nothing. In fact, the comic store launches in the US today but should be in the UK very soon. Tomorrow at 5pm, I hear. The only […]
