Absolutely ridiculous. So I went to Sainsbury's and bought Toy Story 2 for a tenner, came home and watched it, and had a ruddy good time.

So I guess I'll have to try and complete FF13 at some point, but it's also really hard and because it's so crap I can't be bothered to try and overcome the hardness. I wish Snow and Hope would fuck off and get raped. Sazh is the only cool character they should just make a game called Sazh and have him talking for 10 hours about how cool he is.

Six quid sounds about right cosidering how gant it is - it's probably because they've got so many copies coming from people going 'excuse me, this game is really shit. Can I have something else?'

Red Dead Redemption is actually really glorious. What a wonderful game.

Pretty cool, but I think the gameplay from Tekken is much better than Street Fighter and it looks like it's just going to be a Street Fighter game with the license for the Tekken characters...

Namco are developing a Tekken x SF game as well, which presumably will be using the Tekken engine, so that may be more joyous for you.

Finally finished the story this morning, the last few missions started getting real boring so I left it for a few weeks. Time to sell it on and pick up something new!

I just love riding around the desert having a lovely time. But some mad cougar killed my horse today, which upset me. So I shot the wanker and skinned it. Anyway I've just done some sort of horse wagon race for the old madman who then told me to go and find an Irish man, so it's all been ruddy good fun so far.

It is actually amazing. It's made by Rockstar, so it's basically GTA in the west, and much better for it. I was one of the few who found GTA overhyped and boring, and also quite racist. Westerns are amazing, so this is amazing.

LIMBO on the XBLA is awesome if you fancy just a really intense, albeit short, experience. One of the best games ive played in a while!

Just started installing Star Craft 2 and I've also been playing Alien Swarm which is wicked.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

Earthworm Jim HD has finally come out on PSN! GROOVY! GROOVY! GROOVY! GR-GR-GR-GROO-GROO-GR-GROOV-GROOVY!

Other than that, I just bloody fucking love Red Dead Redemption, it's amazing. A bit annoying at times, but aren't they all.

I finally got round to playing Final Fantasy 13 - bit pants isn't it? I'll stick with it for a while though, only 6 hours in.

Right so I've started Final fantasy VII again for the 279464057303639056507th time in another attempt to get a perfect save - after noticing some minor (read: massive) flaws in my current one. Shitload of missed items and crap. If I can do this then my life will basically be complete since I'll never have to play Final Fantasy VII ever again. At least not until they remake it.... if that ever happens.

Saying that, I feel a bit frustrated that I've played this game so many times over the last 12 years and I've never managed to get a perfect game. Fuck you, Square!
