Still don't get it

Everyone knows Bejeweled, everyone has played Bejeweled but everyone may not know that the third game of the series is coming out soon.

Which has (apparently) taken three years to make.

Three years.

Bejewelled. The game where you line up 3 jewels that look the same.

Three years.

How does that work?

This is why I hate not having the Internet at work

Missed this yesterday. Very annoying. Reaaaally looking forward to this game and by the time I had got home the site handing out the keys had pretty much exploded.

Same thing with Battlefield Heroes, I always miss them handing out beta keys by like an hour or something.

Why does the Internet hate me so?

The Best Room Ever

Seriously, The Best Room Ever.

That place would be a car-booters dream.

Wa-hoo!

Happy with that. It is a great game but does look a bit bobbins these days. Hopefully the PS3 will make it so that buildings don't randomly appear when you're three feet away from them.

Top Down Cloverfield? I'm There

Wow. This looks ace.

I saw a trailer for this a while ago and assumed it would only come out on Japan but the trailer is now up on the European PlayStation Store which is a good sign.

Basically, the game uses hi-res Google Maps of various cities. You have to guide a group of people through the streets whilst avoiding monsters trying to eat them.

I like monsters. Sounds way fun.

Two and bit weeks in: The PS3 Update

It's awesome.

Maybe it's because I've had a couple of years in the console wilderness but it's awesome having a PS3.

The last console I had was an X-Box and I swapped that for my Brother-in-Law's DS way back in 2006 so it's been a long time of handheld gaming.

I love having a Blu-Ray player, especially with my awesome new TV. I love having wireless controllers. I love being able to download demos off the PlayStation Store. I love being able to buy full games off the PlayStation Store. I love linking my PSP up to the PS3 via wireless.

I haven't got much into the online game stuff yet. I do have some online games (GTA IV and Metal Gear Solid 4) but haven't got into them yet.

The updates are a bit annoying. That's one reason why I haven't played Metal Gear online yet is because you have to download a big update before you can play it. Some of the games install themselves as well does take a while. It's not a problem but it is there. The install on Metal Gear was fine though, as during the whole time it was installing ('bout ten minutes) Solid Snake was stood on screen smoking endless cigarettes whilst health warnings about smoking came up on the screen.

Games wise, my opinions so far are as follows:

GTA IV

Brilliant. Still GTA but amazing.

Metal Gear Solid 4

A fresh kind of madness. Looks amazing, makes no sense.

Dynasty Warriors: Gundam

Giant robots smashing each other up. Brilliant.

Burnout Paradise (borrowed)

Looks stunning, plays just as good. The open sandbox nature of the game should be confusing but isn't.

Heavenly Sword

Game is fun but the best thing about them is the cut-scenes. Directed by Andy Serkis, they are stunning. Shame the game can't quite keep up. Completed it as well.

Uncharted

Great action game, loads of fun, nice characters and looks great.

All in all, having a PS3 is ace.

I'm not sure if this is meant to be a joke



That's either genius or really stupid.
