Today is the annual Children in Need charity event, here in the UK. Although there are some cheesy and embarrassing aspects to the event on TV at times, the cause itself is very important and should be supported by everyone, no matter how small the contribution. Which brings me onto the reason for this posting …
I’ve just watched this gameplay footage for the second time. What a fabulous looking game! What great fun! This is going straight to the top of my most wanted list. Sod those story games if there is fun like this out there. 🙂 It’s weird because I’ve never been particularly drawn to Mario games in …
The Witcher is a new game that I did some script editing work on earlier this year. I have a spare copy of the game to give away to the lucky winner of this free-to-enter competition. I will sign the game for the winner, too. Just answer the following two questions: 1. Who is the …
Well, listen to my weird voice, anyway. 🙂 Although GC in Leipzig was two months ago, the guys over at Adventure-Treff have finally posted a video interview that they conducted with me. I’ve done a lot of e-mail and MSN messenger interviews and with that format I always have a chance to think about my …
I’ve just received the latest strip from Stefano and have posted it on the website. He’s adding a wonderful depth to the strips with his approach. We’re going to have lots of fun with this storyline. Stay tuned for more updates!

The official website for So Blonde, has gone live. For those of you who cannot read German, or who prefer to read in English, click on the US/British flag just above Sunny’s head on the right hand side. Plenty to see here, don’t move along.
A report over at MCV covers the opening of a new Gamestation shop in my home town of Hull. Claiming it will be the second largest gaming shop in Europe, that’s quite an acheivement for a town that reguarly gets a lot of stick from all quarters. “Hull has some of the most dedicated gamers …
After a slight delay, another strip has been posted on the Mr. Smoozles site. Stefano is beginning to get into his stride, I think. Let us know what you think of the latest direction.
The first trailer for Brütal Legend, the next Tim Schafer game, has been released. I must admit, it caught me a little by surprise, but the fact that a game trailer can do this in today’s jaded climate is a good point to start from. Although it’s an action game that looks incredibly gory, the …
I think that Stephen Fry is a wonderful entertainer and his recent documentaries about bipolar disorder and HIV have been excellent, too. In conjunction with the latest documentary on HIV, a new website has been created called G.I.JONNY to help raise awareness of the problems of HIV amidst fears that people are becoming complacent about …
