As of late, I have found myself to be somewhat addicted to Guitar Hero: World Tour. Not because of the in-game content, but for the sheer thrill of mastering a rather awesome rock tune on the expert difficulty (for experts). However, 5 hours of daily gameplay has taken it's toll on my wrist, leading to a potential sprain. If you find that you tend to be a childish person, I have got the symptoms of  "wankers cramp". Undoubtedly, RockBand offers a much better overall gaming experience and for that I love it. But GH has something that RB lacks at this moment in time. The Fun Factor. RB is a very serious game, filled with many well known and challenging songs such as Panic Attack by Dream Theater ( It is "theater" because they are American). But during a party, when everyone is starting to get bored, the one game that you can rely on is GH:WT. The sheer light heartedness of the setlist, which includes songs such as "La Bamba" and "The Touch" is guaranteed to lighten the mood. Now, I'm not hating on RB because I do love it, but I prefer GH due to the ability to include everyone, even the small with its beginner difficulty.  But the sheer size of the "Hero" fanchise has led it to incorperate "DJ Hero". So I have a question for all of you "bombers". Will "DJ Hero" ruin the "Hero" franchise?

On a recent Saturday morning, I awoke to a pool or water surrounding my PS3 console. It had died. A leak in the ceiling had caused it to short circuit and goof out on me. Many tears were shed for it. No more could I vlast the senseless faces of Splicers in BioShock, Scream Aim and Fire in Guitar Hero or assassinate some templars in Assassins Creed. This was a terrible day. Until I discovered that by removing the power cable for a few hours, I could fix it. Thus reviving the console. This made me wonder, could the Xbox360 stand up to the torment that my console was put through? Then I decided probably not and got on with the rest of my day gaming

I am aware that yesterdays blog has caused somewhat of an "uproar". Now, i'm sorry if anyone was offended by my "pubicus minimus" joke. It was intended as a joke. I promise! ^_^. On to the serious stuff. I'm not going to bow down and swear my alligence to one console. All next-gen consoles have their strengths and weaknesses but each console is good for different things. The PS3 is basically one big media center with easy access to music, videos and photos. The Xbox 360 is your straight faced gaming console and good for groups of friends. The Wii (making a debut in my blog) is good for then younger gamer and the older gamer alike, with a wide range of different things to do. Now, I am neutral. All consoles are good but are weaker in some places than other consoles.
So more comments / arguements / good veiws please.
Jolly Bombing!

After a long and painful session on the climbing wall today, I sat down with my friends and made the foolish mistake of asking the everlasting question "What console is better, Xbox 360 or PS3?"
Although I own a PS3, and coincedently think it is the better console, I was on the side of the Xbox 360.This may be seen as a defection in the eyes of many fanboys but there is purpose to this chaos. Yes, I do think that the PS3 is the better console due to its capabilities (e.g. Surfing the internet and contributing to some university.) but the 360 just has some of the best games ever produced (e.g. Mass Effect, Halo 3 and Fable 1 and 2.)

The mighty PS3

Sure, paying to chainsaw some of your "friends" heads of sucks but  it's all worth it in the end due to the lack of unused accounts equalling less lag. On the downside, most of the people who are in possesion of an Xbox 360 are referred to in latin as Pubicus Minimus (No Pubes). The PS3 just seems like a more sophisticated and adult console with much more as standard compared to Xbox 360. So, I'd like to hear your views and maybe even receive your fanboy hate mail! Lol!
Happy Bombing! 

Now, I know what your thinking, "OMG! Another CoD4 N00B!" but, you are wrong. Don't get me wrong, I do like to play CoD but it's somewhat an "I put 3 hours of my life into it and get nothing out of it" relationship. It is a very addictive game and some of the rewards achieved are worthwhile but from a personal point of veiw, the multiplayer and campaign modes have been put into a life switcher. The campaign mode is very short and unrewarding unless you can completely obliterate anything in your path with a simple assault rifle. The multiplayer mode however is estimated to give you a minium of 13 hours of gameplay before achieving the highest rank. Now, if I were to make some changes, I would extend the single player campaign, make it multiplayer co-op and reduce the ranking system for online play. So, first rant/blog complete.
