    BREAKING NEWS: Arena Pricing Announced (May 25, 2007)

    You don't actually need a TV.. you can get a VGA cable for the xbox 360 and just run it in to a regular PC monitor. If it doesn't have a tuner, you don't need a licence.

    Arena Gets European Rating (June 5, 2007)

    Europe based game rating board PEGI, or Pan European Game Information, have recently given Arena their rating treatment. The good news is that in almost every European country, Arena has been rated as suitable for ages 3 and up meaning that just about everyone can enjoy the game. The exception...

    New home!

    Nope, it would have taken up far too much money to redo the ceilings. Also the walls are covered in woodchip paper which would be a nightmare to get rid of. I don't particularly like having it there, but a fresh coat of paint did make a difference. A lot of it was based around whatever was...

    New home!

    I finally took some photos of the new place. First let's remind ourselves what it looked like before... There are still some finishing touches needed (like a kitchen light shade that isn't for a table lamp), but here's how things now look.

    The way I understand it, you take the temperature that is written on the lowest of the floating bubbles. Except it's so hot in here that none of the bubbles are floating. So it's pretty useless right now.

    This has been a long time coming since I've only just moved home and I had to find my card reader.

    BREAKING NEWS: Arena Pricing Announced (May 25, 2007)

    Well the exchange rate doesn't actually affect MS points.. I believe 1000 point packs are £8.50. But still, about £7 for Arena is an incredible bargain. Arena appears to have far more scope than any other XBLA game and there have been lesser games priced at 1200 points before now.

    Korean Movie Poster Found (April 29, 2007)

    While searching the internet, AD stumbled across a neat poster that most people haven't seen before: the Korean WC movie poster. It's totally different from any of the other posters, and it doesn't actually include anything recognizable, but it's a great addition to the collection. It's great...

    Privateer 2 on Dosbox

    Out of interest, is it freezing at the point where Lev is talking to Joe at the bar? It could be waiting for you to choose a path. Try pressing up or down and see if it highlights an option.

    EA Replay

    Okay, I just checked both US and UK versions.. both can steer diagonally using the D-pad.. but I wouldn't say it does it very well. Using the little stick is a much better option. Both versions are also slightly jerky but it's nothing that makes me think it's anything out of the ordinary, and...

    EA Replay

    I'll check mine when I get home. It's the UK version but it should be similar enough. Are you using the D-pad to steer or the little stick? Is there any particular point when you notice the game getting jerky?
