Busman’s Holiday
Apr 30 2008, 10:56 am
So I’ve been ill. Really, really ill. I sat down on Wednesday evening for a quiet night in front of my current game. I’d been looking forward to it all day. In fact I spend a great deal of my life looking forward to a quiet evening playing a game that’s not for work. I spend my days working, doing …

Grind it Baby!
Apr 24 2008, 3:13 pm
It’s been a long time since I really invested in some grinding time. For those who think an RPG is something to do with grenades, I’m talking about level grinding. Now I know leveling up is no longer limited to the world of fantasy role-playing games. We’ve all spent time building our characters in GTA, Crackdown and Rainbow Six Vegas …

I am thee weeeiner
Apr 16 2008, 10:47 am
I have a blinding headache. I HATE games. I want to throw all my consoles out the window. What happened? I’ve been playing Mario Kart Wii. Why would that make me mad, you ask? I really don’t know. But for some reason I have everything flipped around. Games that should be relaxing jaunts with cute characters infuriate me, whilst complex …

I would like to formally announce that the members of Frag Dolls UK, Sarin, Jam and Kitt, are the official world record holders of the Longest Continuous Play of an FPS.

It takes two baby, just me and you
Mar 21 2008, 11:04 am
It’s amazing how much a game can be brought to life by its co-op mode. Crackdown was one of the best games of last year – bouncing around the city taking out perps was a joyful thing, but it was never such fun as when doing it with a friend. In the case of Crackdown, co-op wasn’t so much about …

Be Part of our Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 Record Breaking Attempt!
Mar 12 2008, 2:30 pm
Yes, we’re at it again. Not satisfied with one Guinness World Record, we are going for another. We thought we’d set ourselves a real challenge this time. We are going to play Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 until we drop - 24 hours or more, to be precise. Now I know you are all going to do that too when it …

All the small things
Mar 08 2008, 7:33 pm
While cleaning up around the house I realised that I really do have an awful lot of game junk. I can only imagine what a non gamer looking around my house would think of it all. The strange array of little memories associated with favourite moments in games clutter my house like a strange version of family photos in frames. …

Hang out in the Arcade
Mar 02 2008, 9:52 pm
Where does Xbox Live Arcade rate on your priority list of platforms? There was a time not so long ago where you wouldn’t even have thought of it as a platform at all – just a forgotten about add-on. It seems that XBLA has really come into its own of late. At the game developers’ conference recently, Microsoft held its …

Tomb Raider Underworld
Feb 28 2008, 12:15 pm
I have a feeling like a cold stone in the pit of my stomach. It’s fear. Above that stone flutters a cloud of tiny pink butterflies. It’s excitement. I have a warm fuzzy feeling around my cheeks. It’s anticipation. These feelings tell me there’s a new Tomb Raider game on the way. Now I think I’ve made it fairly clear …

Point and Click
Feb 22 2008, 9:30 am
The genre that never quite died but has dwindled to a constant trickle is my favourite. More than the hugeness of RPGs, more than the carnage of shooters, more than the exploration of platformers - never am I quite so happy and serene than when I’m playing a point and click adventure. I know that I don’t have the normal …

Eternal Sonata - A resolution fulfilled
Feb 14 2008, 10:13 am
You may remember I made some New Year resolutions - one of which was to get back into RPGs and play them ALL THE WAY THROUGH, something I hadn’t done for a while. So I’ve been making the time for Eternal Sonata, a game I’ve been dipping in and out of for ages. The last few weeks I’ve put aside …

Jan 20 2008, 2:18 pm
Years ago, long before I was in games journalism, before I started playing games every day, before I’d ever bought a games magazine, I used to play games WITH people.

New Year’s Resolutions
Jan 02 2008, 9:35 am
I have a few things I’d like to get done this year. I’m been meaning to learn to drive for so long it’s getting embarrassing. I’m also getting ‘the fear.’ I’m a responsible adult now with a strong idea of just how dangerous the roads are. You should really learn to drive when you’re an arrogant youth who believes they …

Dancing in the Afternoon
Dec 21 2007, 12:01 am
A man looks out his window to take in a cold sunlit Thursday afternoon as he contentedly sups on a cup of sweet tea. In the building across the street he can see people going about their lives. An old lady tends to her window box, a guy and his girlfriend heatedly point fingers at each other and gesticulate wildly, …

Well I did it. In a previous blog, I promised you I’d learn, record and perform a song using Jam Sessions, the guitar simulator on the DS, and I have. I know it took a while. I won’t go into how much preparation I had to do to get it all done, but it was a lot! I can’t play …

Blue is for boys and pink is for girls
Dec 03 2007, 12:53 am
So I got myself a pink 360 controller. It’s a nice shade of pink. It’s not quite as nice a pink as DS pink, but certainly a lot more appealing than the Pepto Bismol pink of the PSP. What? What’s wrong with that? Ok, ok I admit I was slightly embarrassed in the indie games shop buying the imported peripheral, …

Guitar Hero III Interview
Nov 09 2007, 6:05 pm
I have a love/hate relationship with Guitar Hero. I love playing it but I’m also utterly rubbish at it, and within a very short time I can be found slumped on the couch with my arms folded and a big lip. But the thing about Guitar Hero is that it keeps me coming back for more. That’s why I was …

High fantasy in Gaming
Nov 06 2007, 6:05 pm
My mother always said I lived in a fantasy world, never seeming to be really a part of what was going on around me. I had school reports that said I would be a brilliant student if only I would stop staring out the window as if off in some fantasy of my own making. That was all a long …

PS3: Actually quite good!
Oct 16 2007, 6:05 pm
It’s amazing what short memories we have. Not so long ago we were complaining bitterly that there weren’t enough games for the 360, that many titles were being delayed and that Live Arcade had such sparse choice that it was never going to fulfil its potential.

Jam Sessions: Kitt’s promise

So I’ve been playing Jam Sessions. It’s utterly brilliant. I’m not just saying that. I can’t believe how much fun it is to play.

Xbox 360 Elite: A console too many?
Sep 12 2007, 6:05 pm
Last month was a crazy one in my gaming life. Having just sent off two, count ‘em, TWO 360’s which had decided to have a synchronised red-lighting competition I then brought home my new baby in their stead – the oh so very black 360 Elite. No it doesn’t run quieter. No it isn’t so cold that it has icicles …

Stunning, Stunning , Stunning! Bioshock is incredibly beautiful. The plot is thick and heavy with secrets and pathos.

World’s Apart
Aug 15 2007, 6:05 pm
The breadth of gaming often amazes me. How Bioshock and Hexic 2 can both come under the small umbrella of ‘videogames’ is astonishing. Yet they both do and both delight in very different ways. Bioshock offers you the combination of Jules Verne-like underwater adventure with an Orwellian dystopic sci-fi plot. You’ll find yourself wandering around the faded grandeur of a …

If there is anything better on the Live Arcade I don’t know what it is. I’m absolutely blown away by Bomberman Live. This is how all arcade games should be. The customisation options are phenomenal.

Endwar: Michael de Plater (interview)

A Frag Doll’s work is never done

It’s been a busy time for Frag Dolls this summer. We’ve been all over the place playing, talking about and even judging games.

Chocobo Tales: My life as a giant chicken
Jun 03 2007, 6:05 pm
I wondered how long it would be before I got to play another game that had such a wide age range appeal as Lego Star Wars.

Cracking down to the Halo 3 Beta
May 21 2007, 6:05 pm
Ok, so I wasn’t falling over myself with quite as much excitement as many of my friends. I didn’t spend release night trying desperately to download it.

Kratos: God of Games
May 06 2007, 6:05 pm
I loved God of War. It was both a beautiful looking game, and it had excellent controls and gameplay. These are the things you want from a game.

Indie Game Shops Breathe Their Last

Gaming tastes: ‘Simple’ is the new ‘Fancy’
Apr 10 2007, 6:05 pm
Fancy shmancy is out. It’s all about simplicity at the moment for me. I’ve been playing Theme Park on the DS and it’s not like it’s some new supped up version of Theme Park. It’s just plain decade old Theme Park but my God can I stop? I can’t put the damn thing down. The only games that have been …

I’m a big scaredy cat. I’ll say that right now. There’s no getting round it. No nerves of steel, me. The one thing I can do to pretty much completely remove my fear when watching a scary movie like The Shining or Psycho is to mute the sound. Instantly no matter what is going on on-screen I’m no longer scared. …
