I've started sketching a bit.

In order to prepare for this webcomic thing.

So far I almost have one character worked out :)

Be the Zombie!

I just installed Stubbs the Zombie - Rebel Without a Pulse and played through the tutorial before work this evening.

I can't recommend it highly enough!

It has a great B-Movie feel with a filmic look.

Remember those classic old games?

Want maps of them?

I love this idea, I just wish they had more in the Arcade section.

Considering I'm a MAME fan, maybe I should submit some myself...

Credit goes to Scott Ramsoomair of VGCats fame for finding that one!

Heavy stuff...

A friend had his 29th birthday on Saturday.
We went over and wished him "happy birthday" at around 10:30 PM, then went home around midnight.

He died in his sleep that night. I won't go into detail.

This scares me.
I'm 29. In fact, I'm almost 30.

His funeral is this morning.

You know you want to play it...

Because it's Bubble Bobble!

Games, Movies and such...

So I'm eagerly awaiting Rise of Legends.
Looks like a great game, I just hope my PC can run it! It's getting a little long in the tooth these days...

For those who haven't yet seen it, I thoroughly recommend Fun With Dick and Jane. It's got some great piss-takes of classic movies as well as enough original stuff to keep it interesting.

I am also looking forward to Underworld: Evolution. I thoroughly enjoyed the first movie so I think this should be good too.
They have a little online game, too.

Why old phone cameras suck

Now, if phone cameras had a flash, they might not suck as much!

The best keys on a keyboard:

Quite possibly a gamer's favourite keys

Mail-to-Blogger test

If you can read this, I got Mail-to-Blogger working.

Yay me!

There's a reason you don't normally get orange frozen Margaritas.

I found out that if you replace the lime cordial with orange juice, it is not sweet enough!

Although this can be fixed with the addition of sugar, it is not sufficient to merely add undissolved white sugar. Speaking from experience, I would recommend adding sugar syrup or using orange cordial instead of juice.

Happy New Year!

May 2006 live up to all of your expectations!

Note: I didn't actually post this at the time listed, I was far too busy actually enjoying the New Year!
