I’m a fish

It’s been touched on before, but it’s worth mentioning again. The Reaper and I do not limit our online endeavours to this blog. We also work on audio dramas which are hosted at Star Wars Fanworks which is run by the extremely talented Nathan P Butler. To that end, we have started our own Drunken Fish forum to promote our work. It will be primarily for a Star Wars Audio parody called Jedi love at the moment. But there will be other, more serious ventures, as well as podcasts which will include video game related overtures.

Come check us out.

A short breath

This one is a pause, not an out and out stop.

I recently made purchase of a new graphics card which will push my current rig into the mythical realm of awesome beyond even the gaming powerhouse of the fabled ZX Spectrum. Because of this, I’m not playing any PC games at the moment. I’m waiting for the new card so that future gameplay videos will have a framerate above six. I suppose I could throw out a review for another platform (I’m sure you have noticed that the X-Box 360 has been rather prominent of late), but that would be too much like common sense. Besides, I have the PC itch at the moment. And it’s time to bolster that side of the website again. From there I’ll probably back round to the Wii, and maybe even, finally, something for the PSP. Until such time, hello true believers.

Here is some cake

More delays…

There have been a few things happening in the real world that have taken up most of my time recently. The most notable of them being a visit from my daughter and the purchase of a new PC. But fear not, I have also been busy thrashing the arse off a number of games in my spare time, and have developed a backlog of some of the more recent titles. I’ll be working through them, as well as some older games that I’ve prepared material for, over the next few weeks. By which point I should probably have some more of the newer titles ready to go as well.

Two reviews will be coming either tomorrow or Thursday. Resistance for the Playstation 3, and F.E.A.R 2 PC. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Eyes peeled peeps

Another month, another excuse for not posting any reviews

Bobfish — Fri, 23 Jan 2009 12:07:31 +0000

Unfortunately, whilst the Reaper and I were expecting that the post New Year period would bring with it the opportunity to kick back a little and come back to some more important thins (like playing games, writing reviews, watching 80s TV shows and eating cake) we have actually found ourselves more distracted than ever. However, fear not, for we have not been idle. All of those reviews, and more, that werepromised way back when in the middle of December will soon be upon us.

We have also now requistioned a reliable X-Box 360 spokesperson. My fabulous new girlfriend Lissa, who is one of the primary reasons I personally have been so…distracted of late. So, thankfully, the rather weighted bias towards the Wii and Playstation 3 will be gradually offset as we move to a more balanced approach to review publication. Hopefully, we should soon be in a position to get one from each of the current primary platforms each week. That being Playstation 3, Wii, X-Box 360 and PC. As well as a spattering of others here and there such as downloaded games and the odd retro classic.

And, finally, the Reaper, my amazing new girlfriend and I have been working on a seperate internet venture that will see distribution, hopefully, some time before the end of next week. A twelve part Star Wars audio comedy/drama that we believe many of our loyal readers (hoping that we actually have some) will find to be at least moderately entertaining. Also, next week should hopefully see a return to posting as I have both a Wii and PC title to air my views on. The PC game I have choen should prove to be most interesting as it is something which has devided a great many gamers for a number of years now.

Keep your eyes peeled everyone. There are good things to come very soon.

The quiet before the storm

Well, our regular subscribers will have surely noticed that it’s been a little quiet in GR land the past few weeks. But fear not, we have not forgotten you, our loyal minions of return minionness. It5’s gotten back to that time of year when everyone, even we, your review writing lords, have a lot to deal with.

At present, our duties consist of :

1) Shouting at the TV

2) Shouting at each other

3) Shouting at ourselves

4) Eating cake

And E) Sleeping in the garden

However, come the other side of the new year, bot the Reaper and I will return with an impressive line up of both new and old games for you to sink your teeth into. I don’t want to go into too much detail about our little secret project, but I can assure you it is something on a scale not previously considered. Something that has been made possible only now through the keen application of Ebay, an old CRT Television and a lama called Steve.

We will also be briinging you Fallout 3 for both Playstation 3 and PC, Siren Blood Curse, Rainbow Six Vegas and several more titles that you may still be uhming and ahhing about that we can, perchance, inform you correctly about. Both the good and the bad aspects. Watch this space my loyal minions, thine faith shall be rewarded.

Take A Break From Gaming And See A Show

Charlie Jones — Fri, 31 Oct 2008 00:23:44 +0000

I love video games as much as anyone (okay, a few of you may be a little more hardcore than I am), but sometimes it’s important to put the wiimote down and enjoy the outside world. With that in mind, I want to bring your attention to a website called, TicketsToGo, which offers tickets to concerts and other events, including sold out shows.

Personally, I visited the site trying to get my hands on some tickets to see the “Queen of Pop”, of course I’m referring to Madonna tickets. My girlfriend is crazy about her, and I’ll be able to really surprise her with a special night out when Madonna comes to town. I knew Madonna was popular and has had a long-lasting career, but I was surprised to learn she has had over twelve number one hit songs, as well as she has sold over 120 million albums – so I guess my girlfriend is far from being her only fan. That’s why TicketsToGo is such an important website, as you can find tickets there that you otherwise wouldn’t be able to get your hands on.

Anyhow, if you’re a music buff, or just want to get away from the ps3 for a few hours and enjoy a show, make sure to check out the TicketsToGo website. They truly offer something for everybody.

Take A Moment To Check Out Gadget Advisor

One thing that I have come to know about video gamers, is that most, if not all of us have a strong interest in technology. For that reason, I wanted to bring your attention to a weblog called Gadget Advisor, which aims to bring its readers the best of the best in technology news.

At Gadget Advisor you’ll be able to navigate through their clean and simple design to find reviews that match your specific tech interests. The posts are well-written and full of the pertinent information that tech users want. Personally, I enjoyed: network media player, universal remote control, and online backup services.
