Let’s Play Some… Indie Games

The Indie Game market exploded in recent years and rapidly picked up a large following over the last few years – that’s had some very postive and very negative knock-on effects but that’s for a different article. No, today we are going to take a look at some of the great indie games available today, some of […]

Top 5 Video Game Bromances

Ah, the bromance. That vaguely homoerotic relationship between two men that breaks the walls of mere friendship and flourishes into something bigger and more beautiful and also subsequently creates some of the creepiest fanships and fictions I have ever seen. Bromances have spread from books to film to cinema to, of course, video games and […]

Five Schools We'd Not Rather Attend

Okay, fine play the age card – it’s been a while since I was sitting in a classroom attentively listening to my teachers (and that’s no joke!).

  Mention a Batman videogame today and people will gleefully reminisce about stalking the streets of Arkham City, masterfully kicking the crap out of crime. But there was a time before Rocksteady gave us the game we deserve, and we were left with some of the worst games ever made. Batman – 1986 The Dark […]

Music Monday – 21/7/14

About a year ago I found myself becoming increasingly bored with the music I was listening to. I just wanted something new, something different. Then a friend introduced me to a Japanese band, and that fuelled a search to seek out other heavy metal and rock bands from the far East. Some of the music […]

Music Monday 7/7/14

This is actually my third draft of a Music Monday for the site so far. Initially I thought “The weather’s lovely, let’s do a list of summery punk tunes”, then Naomi went and did just that. So I thought “Okay, I’ll do a list of all the new metal I’ve discovered over the past year” […]
