Keeping the crows at bay


A few years ago a friend introduced me to a book by the writer Matthew Reilly. Now I eagerly await getting my hands on each new release.

His latest book follows the exploits of one of his two main protagonists, Captain Shane Michael Schofield, call-sign Scarecrow. His books are like good 80's action movies (you know the last time they were good), think Die Hard meets Navy Seals (I know this came out in 1990 but it's an 80's action film at heart).

RPG's - Rarely Played Games


After visiting my local Blockbuster I realised just how many games are out there that I need to play. Worse are the ones I have that I have yet to complete.

Many of the ones I have are RPG's of the western and JRPG variety. Only a few RPG's really hook me from beginning to end while others are games I come back to time and again to push through another 10 or so hours.

These are the only games that I find myself leaving to finish at another time. Those few that did hook me were the Mass Effect trilogy and Final Fantasy XIII, all of which I completed within the first week of owning them.

The longest QTE of my life


Well just finished Asura's Wrath (warning here be spoilers) and while it was a unique experience I'm not 100% sold on this type of game.

Were you Mass Effected or unaffected?


The title of this blog says a lot to those who have seen any of the stories about the ending of Mass Effect 3.

Warning here be spoilers!

Let the absurdity begin!

Hello and welcome to my blog.

Are you like me and looking for a blog about videogames, movies, anime, books
and cooking. Well I gave up looking and just decided to write one myself. Now on occasion I will venture into other topics, but as of writing this I haven't really thought it through.
