Skyrim Skyrim Skyrim!!!

Hey All, now having devoted nearly 100 hours to the PS3 version of Skyrim and getting 96% complete on all the trophies. It is to my deep frustrations that I have found out I cannot complete the final trophy in regards to the 15 Daedric artifacts... Ironically the quest that spawns the beacon cannot be completed if you have already completed certain guild quest-lines that causes the chest that spawns in a certain sanctuary to become unreachable. Gaaaaaaah! Bethesda! Please fix these bugs already, the game is great and is much deserving of all its accolades. However, small things like this make it sooo frustrating. For all of you that don't have the game yet or are thinking about it, it is well worth the money if you can get over most of the bugs on the PS3 version at-least. Hope everyone else is surviving and having fun. Peace. :)

WOW Server Blades on Auction Now!

Hey all, just wanted to take this opportunity to promote the chance to own your decommissioned server blade that use to house one of the "World of Warcraft" realms. Personally, I think this is an awesome idea and having played the game since vanilla, I know which blade I will be bidding on :)

Now, I have read a lot of haters on the official forums who have "shot-down" or voiced their opinions about the hardware being useless and the like. Well people, I just want to reiterate that this is for "charity" and it is the "sentimental" reasons and wanting to help a good cause that come into play here. To shoot down anything that is remotely noble is nothing short of stupid and ignorant, If you don't like the idea then don't bid but keep your unwelcome opinions to yourselves. For those of you who are interested, the first round is just about to come to an end in about 30 hours time. You can however, follow the link below to find out more information.

As always thanks for reading and happy bidding :)

iPad2 and the passing of a legend...

Hey guys, after a long break from blogging and falling victim to the daily grind. I have found myself back to the drawing board regarding points in life. I've recently acquired an iPad 2 and with the passing of a legend "Steve Jobs" RIP. It saddens me to know that the world has lost one of it's most innovative and creative genius'. It will be interesting to see the future roadmap of Apple and where they will be in the near future without their Iconic leader at the helm.

Admittedly, I have never owned an Apple product and have always been a PC enthusiast. However, the iPad2 is a glimpse into what the future holds in terms of technological advancement. The sheer beauty of something so slim yet retaining it's functionality and comfortable place in any common man's arsenal of everyday tools. Business person to student the marvel of what the iPad technology has brought to the world of computing is the first step into how we look at emerging technologies and the way they will help us shape the future. It is for these very reasons, that I am thankful the world has produced creative minds such as those in the league of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. This one is for you Steve, well done for making your mark and your legacy will live well into the future of technology.

RIP Steve Jobs 1955-2011.

PS3 Slim

Ok, so all good things come to an end? I'll apologize for lack of updates as I was way too busy with work and World of Warcraft. That being said, I've decided to choose real-life instead of my online alter ego thus suspending my account. So far so good, no withdrawal urges whatsoever :)

Anyways, to celebrate my reawakening I've decided to spoil the inner geek within by buying myself a PS3 slim. A little consolation for a job well-done *quitting wow* :)

So with no further delays, my analysis on the console? Well, most of you guys would own the standard PS3, so bare in mind if you do you'll want to keep in order and spend you coinage elsewhere. However, for those of you looking to console game in the near future. Look no further!! This is the console for you! At first I was skeptical with the cheaper looking finish and removal of touch sensitive buttons. Although, after seeing this thing in the flesh I must say that I am impressed. The sheer engineering of squeezing such an impressive engine into such a compact casing is indeed a technological marvel of todays standards. Furthermore, did I mention that the system runs much cooler because of the 45nm die which equates to the quiet cooling solution on this baby. On startup you can barely notice that the console is on :) All in all it is a nice impressive addition to any console lovers collection and will be for the next few years to come.

I'll post back once I get my hands on some games, so far I've managed to pick up: uncharted 2: among thieves, tekken 6, borderlands, bayonetta and modern warfare 2. The joy of gaming =)

World of Warcraft - Tribute - 'Lil Warlock'

I have just jumped back into playing World of Warcraft since middle of 2006. The expansions have made the game even more enormous and added some nice balancing features to the game. I have just completed the BC and WOTLK expansions having just hit 80 and have to admit that the game is still enjoyable.

Having renditions of the past and memories of having my @ss handed to me by Warlocks, I've rerolled one all the way to 80, and whilst are not so OP anymore are still enjoyable to play.

In addition having been onto the Warlocks Den forums and stumbling across the heart-breaking story of Tarnorthewarlock's nephew and his level 11 warlock, it really does make me remember the very first time I played and how fun it was.

Therefore, this is a tribute to the 'lil' warlock on the hill who will forever overlook the green hills of Northshire.

/Salute

Let us all remember what this game was all about, and take a break to cherish what is really important.

Tanor, you have our deepest condolences to you and your family.

Biohazard 5 Demo hit's XBOX live (Japan)

The highly anticipated Biohazard 5 demo has recently been released on the XBOX live network in Japan. In the past, it was once possible to create a Japanese hotmail account and connect to the XBOX live network in Japan to download the game demos. Unfortunately, this is not so for the Biohazard demo as Capcom are well aware of the facade Japanese account technique and placed a region-lock down on the demo. This has been confirmed, so do not waste your precious bandwidth on a demo that will not work on any other region specific system other than NTSC-J.


However, for those of you interested: NeoGaf has promised to deliver here:
