What happened yesterday? My day was alright. Work is not terrible at the moment which is good. I'm feeling pretty enthralled about the weather. Claire and I live in a really cold flat. It's got large, old bay windows which we think, let a lot of the cold air in. Really looking forward to BVS and then on Friday we are off to Brighton for a day or two. Wheeee.

Reminds me of when they unveiled the Wii U and I cried.

I was stunned to find that London Has Fallen has had terrible reviews online. I watched it yesterday (literally hadn't seen any kind of review about it at all) and loved it. Great cast and great action. As you say, pretty uncomfortable viewing, at one part (when I was enthralled) I was thinking "jeez, is it okay to be enjoying it this much?". Popcorn movie, but with enough entertainment to make it rise above the rest in my opinion. Particularly the siege scene was fucking tremendous! Long drawn out shot, epicness. I saw Disorder last week. AKA Maryland. Slow as shit.

Hello. How Was Your Day? Mine was alright. I have never had the interest, motivation or incentive to learn how to use Windows Excel, but I've been learning some mildly useful things recently which are helpful for my new position (for those that don't know, I was made a manager in July...of a contact team. Contact team manager), and I've been working on a spreadsheet with my colleague that shows what skills people know and create a points system that shows what they can do to get a promotion. So I was dropping all kinds of conditional formatting today, and there were a few bits that just...hooked up. Interlocked. Like some cogs slotting into place. And it was awesome. And I love colour coding and I totally smashed the colour coding. And I've been talking about Windows fucking Excel for several paragraphs. Jesus Christ, it has come to this. #Adult. In extremely good news today, Claire and I are going to a small (but cool) theme park in June, and they have a new area opening up soon, and they have release an app/game for it, and the top three scores each day win tickets to the park. The competition closes tomorrow. I've been playing it for a week, and not been doing too badly. The problem is it's 25% skill, 75% luck because your score (and how high you can get it) all depends on how many "time increase" items you get. Anyway, this morning I got very lucky and am currently sitting at second place with 3,450,000. Third place hasn't moved all day, at 2,620,000. So I am fairly...confident. I don't think I'll be unseated. Even so, I'd have to drop two spaces. I've been playing it for a week so I'm really happy to be in the top today, and I feel like I deserve to win and it will massively make me happy and reward my hard work. Also waiting to hear from Hotel Chocolat, they sent an egg to us and there is also a compo they are running for the best VLOGGER/Blogger's video or article review will win a £75 chocolate ostrich egg, and I reckon we have a good shot with a five-camera-setup Easter Egg hunt Claire and I did... I'm just feeling alright at the moment. Last few weeks have been stressful, so it's nice for work to not be cripplingly busy and for me to be able to catch up on some stuff. And Daredevil this week and BVS next week!

Yeah. Fuck that.

Had to fire someone yesterday, which was absolutely fucking horrendous. What's weird is that they have not unfriended me on facebook. All a bit awkward.

Whilst DKC and Uncharted are my favourite game series' of all time, I can't help but think that Pokemon Gold...and me playing it is possibly some of my greatest gaming memories. #Anecdote. I'm a little shit, and I hate what I did, but I can't change it now...that....on the day before it came out, I think my mum was saying I couldn't have it (probably because I was a cunt) and I whinged myself to sleep..loudly whinging in my bed, being a cunt (I hate this part of this memory, makes me feel awful...but it gets better). Anyway, I got home from school (no longer in a dickhead mood, near as I remember) and went to see my mum who was working in an ornaments store at the time. I went in and behind the counter was Pokemon Gold. I lost my shit, went mental yadda yadda. I was due to go to my dad's for the weekend, so I remember playing it, my dad picked me up, we drove to his (good few hours away) I only stopped playing it on the way for dinner which was Burger King. And it was the greatest weekend of gaming (in between whatever my dad and I did...probably visit Brighton Pier and stuff) of my life. Like. That game, it was literally incredible to play. All the mon' in colour. The new mon! The new types! As you say, day and night and just....oh god so so so so so so so so so good. I will never feel like that again. The innocence of youth. LOVE/

I want me that Yokai-Watch and I kinda want Pokken.

Another great episode. Favourite handheld is a super-easy question. DS. Absolutely sublime. At the time, a touch screen was like...mind blowing to me. It was fabled technology. That meant that Polarium blew my mind. I remember the day my best friend and I picked it up, in the lunch break at college, and we just did nothing but message each other back and forth on Pictochat in the key skills session (and we drank cider in class because we're cool and tearaways and had no respect for our teacher...woops). It also introduced me to Advance Wars Dual Strike, which I stand by as being one of the greatest games ever made. And Henry Hatsworth. Incredible. A technology pushing handheld.

@Ashley & Co, is a "Random" Thread still dissuaded? Kinda thought it would be cool. Anyway, I used to think that Shopto was the best online retailer, but I've slightly lost touch with the gaming world and understand the general consensus is that there's a better one now, but I've forgotten it's name. Is it Simply Games? Whats the crack? Send early? Good prices? Problems? Cheers brids.

Love the idea of a Pepper/Chilli Pokemon who is Grass/Fire.

Yeah, it hasn't translated well.

I really hope the graphics have a complete overhaul. Couldn't get into XY because of it. Part of my problem is the colours look so washed out. And the design feels like it's lost character. I know the style they've gone for give's a sprite from any angle or whatever but it feels like it's lost personality.

Devastated. I don't know what to say. I cannot imagine what you are going through, you are such a strong person, an incredible guy and I'm sure you have enriched the lives of people around you. One of my all time favourite mafia players.... And one of my all time favourite forumers. Take care bud.

I haven't checked but Stadium Comics often do variant bundles and I believe Michael Cho is a frequent visiter/friend of theirs.

Holy shit, strong beard game.

Erm. This is fucking ballstastic. @Kaepora_Gaebora your presenting skills are fucking nuts.

The Daniel Way run is my favourite run. Loved how it linked into the greater MU but still did crazy Deadpool stuff.

Loved it. Cheesy bullshit. Amazing. I want to make the Waverider in LEGO and I'm reasonably committed to doing so.

I too like having physical copies of games. And DAT BOX ART.

I did not know you had teh yewtewbz. Subbed.

Oi nah sick mate.

Yeah it's the same for us. And takes about a week for me too.
