No it't not my renindition of the christmas cola adverts with all those trucks...it's the actual fact im off on my holidays soon...on 25th of July to be precise I'll be off for a week...Im going on a cruise with sam and her family...best news is Sams's dad is treating us so all I need to do is round up some spending money and pay my bar tab at the end of the week but that gives me a week and a half to sort things out yet...so will you all miss me? Don't all shout at once now :P

Oh P.S in game news I went on Ebay and got a copy of Coded Arms it'll come in handy when I get a PSP in september until then we have a the demo machine at work which it's basically my job to play on for several hours a day and I'm sick of Ape Academy..also got a copy of Godzilla: Save the Earth in the glorious Sale only cost me my pocket change and i've said it before and I'll say it again I love Godzilla....will get Killer 7 on Friday was going to get Fantastic Four but having just seen the review Probably wont bother..may well get either Bizarre looking RPG called Lucifers Call which features Devil May Cry's Dante...or Splinter Cell Chaos Theory since it's in the sale instead....hmmm my P.S was as long as the main message.

Hi everyone...

today is pretty special since it marks the day that I've been going out with sam for FIVE whole years thats a scarily long time anyway just got home from work...got time for a quick break then it's off out for a posh dinner then to the pub for drinking before bed...hope im not worn out for work tomorrow..the down side is no time to play any top new titles tonight...God of War is out tomorrow so I'll pick that up and the Halo 2 maps IF they actually turn up ...sadly it's not a free and relaxing weekend since thanks to these new contracts I have to work on saturday...well i'd best go scrub up ready for fancy eating.

P.S. In case anyone saw the news about those bombs in London today don't worry I'm nowhere near there...it's very bad news though I have some family that live in London but weve spoke to them all and everyone is ok.

Yep thats right after my glorious week off it's just a couple of hours before bed time then back to work for me tomorrow...it's not too bad since I sort of like work and we now have a demo PSP in store that I intend to spend much of my work time playing with from now on until the machines release over here in september...plus only about 3 weeks until I go on proper holiday anyway...I've made some good game progress on some games this week off 85 stars on Mario 64 DS might just bite the bullet and go finish off Bowser soon as for the union play through of Cold Fear i've reached the oil rig...not sure how far it is into the game but im assuming im well into it by now hopefully I'll get chance to finish this week...well with all that said I'd better make sure my uniform is all set it's the start of a long week.

I just got back from town

Since I brought the collectors edition of DBZ Budokai 3 the other day I no longer need my original copy so the guys at work let me return it rather than trade it...heh heh heh anyway with the credit I got my copy of Cold Fear and had enough left over to also get Silent Hill 4 which was on sale.. then I got my hair gel and headed back...Im gonna hang out with Sam now and I think i'll probably go out to the pub later so might not actually get started on Cold Fear for the union play until tomorrow but either way I have it and can start soon

As the title suggests I've just been to see War of the Worlds and it was indeed excellent.... If good old Master Chief was around it would have been no problem...anyway now were home the old man has pulled out a copy of the original war of the worlds and they are watching that doing a bit of comparing between the movies.

Actually iv'e had a bit of an alien heavy day...did a couple of missions on Destroy all humans and also made a fair bit of progress in area 51 too so I've had a bit of an extra terrestrial sort of day...I suppose I could top it off by watching Mars Attacks..The Signs and E.T but I might just try and break the cycle some how...

Ahhh another day off and I've been out and made some game progress too..

Me and Sam went to see Mr and Mrs Smith tonight...it was ok I'll give it a few extra points though since Angelina Jolee is a super hot hottie. I was a bit dubious about going since im off to see war of the worlds tomorrow and don't wanna overdose on the cinema...anyway after the movie is over then I might go out drinking for the evening since I didnt go out last weekend.

On the game front I dug a little deeper into my new passtime of destroying all humans and found the time to boost my star tally to 42 on Mario 64 Ds so it's progress all the way..Im steering clear of Halo 2 tonight to take a break no matter how much they call me up and beg me to play...As for Cold Fear for the union play i'm going to head into town on friday...the Halo 2 maps disc will be out and im almost out of hair gel so I'll take a bit of a shopping trip.

Thats right i'd forgotten 2 new Halo 2 maps are free as of today so guess what...I'll probably be doing for several hours later...The disc with the remaining maps is out on friday and I'll get it if the price is right...hopefully the vids on the disc will include a more complete ending to the story too...not sure it seems too much of a loose end to not resolve until Halo 3.

Anyway I would have got the new maps earlier today but my xbox has been downstairs since it came down to serve as extra entertainment at my party on Saturday and it took time for me to gather the will power to go fetch it and spend what seems like ages behind tv's and under my bed wiring it all in again..my PS2 is still down there but it can stay there for now...as fate would have it I own the big TV in the living room so can always disrupt the families viewing should I wish to play.

So before Halo absorbs another evening I'm glad to say I got a fair but done today a couple of reviews...for the latest check out Punisher (Xbox) and went through my old script...Im really happy with it now so I think i'll start with the direction of it all and start working on it as a storyboard to be animated from...

Going to need to head into town one day soon to pick up my copy of Cold Fear as it's the unions game of the month and I need to get started with it.

I'm getting some serious writing done today on all sorts of fronts.

In the world of Gamespot i'm trying to turn the tide on my reviews a little I've bought lots of new games of late so got to get some reviews written to take the list down a bit my latest over the last few days have been for Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters (GC)...The Incredibles (PS2) and Jak 2 (PS2) feel free to check them out and see if you agree.

Then on my writing front Gregg says he has the style down great for the animation and he's animating some shorts to possibly post on the web...once they are all sorted we'll start on the first full episode thus im going to skim through the script one more time try and make it just so. with that done I'll continue work on one of the half finished episodes I have...I also need to update the website in reference to some changes weve made..I was hoping to wait till I have some of the new pics but more work now means less work later so onward I go...I might even try and get a few lines of potential best seller novel down if I feel the itch while I'm at it fingers crossed.

Ahhh a lazy day today as my time off work begins...

Been working a little way into Mario 64 DS strangely it's not as tough as I remember it being in the N64 days except the flying which is a frustrating as it ever was always made worse as Mario screams Yippie as he veers off course.

Of my new consoles games I'm quite fond of Destroy all Humans it's been good fun so far after I'm done on here I might go and see if I can make any more progress on it...

Other than that it's been a pretty quiet did a little sun bathing and helped Sam choose a b'day present for her dad.

Right I'm off to destroy some humans....till next time.

Got the word today I've been made an officer of my favourite union the Through a glass darkly union...those of you not familiar with it should check it out it's all about Horror games...(silent hill resident evil etc.) anyway now I'm an officer so I'll try my best not to dissapoint and help the union rule to the extreeme.

In other news I hit 200 posts woo hoo ok it's small compared to some of you guys on there but needless to say it's a victory Huzzah indeed.

Pretty addicted to Warioware right now just can't leave it alone had a quick bash on mario and I'll try to have another crack at it later....

Right back to it.
