Sorry for the trigger spam

Yeah, sorry about all them posts!

I'm currently setting up a mass trigger for all of my networks to make my life advertising my stream easier.

Basically, Twitch should trigger my Twitter account which, in turn, triggers an automated post here that should write an automated Facebook status update and all will individually link back to the original trigger... Twitch!

I guess I wont know if it will work until I broadcast again but, fingers crossed as it will save me tons of time with the initial setup and letting everyone know when I'm live!

Tomorrow I will be coming at you LIVE!

Hi all,

I'm still here just, far less active than I used t be! I think it started back when I had to avoid this site like the plague due to accidentally stumbling upon spoilers for a game or something...!?

Anyway, that's not important! What I'm here to let you know is that tomorrow I'll be streaming live over on Twitch though it's not going to be anything special other than me and a friend playing Killer Instinct for x-amount of time!

I thought I'd just tell you folks incase you wanted to get involved or join in as we probably will be playing some online matches with viewers too!!

If you want to check us out, head over to Twitch at around 3:30/3:45 GMT!

See you there I guess!

Shafted

*sigh*

Got told today that all my work since November as a deputy manager equates to "nothing" in terms of experience because of where I work and I'm getting demoted when I'm transferred. I knew months ago that the store was closing in May but, was assured I would not be affected.

As it stands, I seem to be the only being affected by the closing.

I'm angry because without me and the things I've done, that branch would have fallen flat on it arse long ago. It seems I get no credit for that and I feel like I've been lied to and used but, the worst part is, I was too blind/trusting to see it.

However, this has now given me the drive to get the fuck out of there and not do anything above my "pay grade" until I do. Meanwhile we'll see how well it functions without my input!

Oh well!

Silence!

Hello all,

I've been very busy and so, also been very quiet! Since June, sme of you may know that I moved to the world's only Xbox shop in Shoreditch... it's nothing special (ok, it really is) but, since I started there in June as a senior sales advisor, I'm now rocking deputy manager!

I've also recently moved out of my house too! It's all pretty exciting but, it was about time to be honest as I fast approach 30 years of age. However, this doesn't mean I'm going to stop playing games or reading comics :P

I'll get some more posts with real body soon but, otherwise I just wanted to let you know that I haven't died or forgotten about this site (or my page).

Sorry for all the recent Instagram stuff

I just got an iPhone (yes, I'm a little behind) and with it, I've been eaten by Instagram. However, it does mean you get more original updates from me which are probably a little more interesting too so, I guess it's a 50/50 split of "another photo" and "Ooo! Something new!" On a plus, I don't try and do all that hipster shit and pretend I'm a photographer :P

Wait.

The record for eating the most jam doughnuts in 3 minutes without licking your lips is 6...

Pretty damn sure I can beat that!

The Last of Us

After playing the early release back over a month ago, I couldn't wait to get my hands on this game... then my tv blew up the day before it's release.

However, I decided to finally get hands on with it today even though I still don't have a TV and, I must say, I wish more games were written and presented like this.

I just want to say one thing... well done Naughty Dog. Not only have you made a game that I'm actually enjoying, you also made the demo different from the final release thus, actually changing the mood in the "demo section" of the actual game.

For those who have not played it, go out and buy a copy now. The game opens with some insanely emotional shit (we're talking, it actually choked me up) and the section I just finished had me out of breath because it was so tense, I was holding it most of the time!!

The script is amazing, the characters are believable, deaths are brutal (seriously, get killed by the bloaters) and them fucking clickers give me the fucking creeps when I don't have a shiv or the materials to make one either!

The Last of Us should be a benchmark for future games in my opinion.

So, while everyone bitches about which console is better...

I'm just gonna say I'm hyped as fuck for Metal Gear 5, Killer Instinct and Kingdom Hearts 3. It's also very likely that I'll eventually own both consoles (much like I do now with current Gen) so I'll just say this:

I give zero fucks about which one is "better" I just want to play the damn games!

Interesting fact though. I didn't buy a 360 until 2 years after launch and a PS3 3 years after launch. I also still own my big fat chunky PS3 but, I'm on my 3rd 360 (based mainly on usage to be fair)

On a side note, I've officially started my new role in my new store :)
