Nintendo Revolution(ary) controller revealed
The new controller for the Nintendo Revolution has been revealed
What can I say – wow – it’s certainly different. I’m not entirely sure how I feel about it, but I’ll definitely be getting one! Since it’s not obvious from a static image the new controller uses a couple of sensors on the tv to track it’s position in 3d space, meaning you can wave it around to control… well… whatever the game ...
Game Developement Diary – Introduction
Something I have wanted to do for a long time is create a development diary whilst making a video game. And when I say a diary I mean something public, like a blog, where people can post comments during the development so that, hopefully, the game will turn out much better.
Now that I have a blog, and I have an idea for a game, I have decided to give the development diary a go. I haven’t got a clue how ...
Tomatoes are Evil
As a long time tomato hater I thought I should help spread the truth about the plague that is slowly devouring our world.
Tomatoes are well and truly evil
A web site dedicated to the percentage of the Earth’s population who DON’T LIKE TOMATOES.

One of my favourite jobs though is working on video games. I tend to have a game project going on all the time, it’s something I can do when everything else is finished.
The games that I work on are generally ...
Wordpress Theme Toolkit
Wordpress Theme Toolkit – [via]
A toolkit that lets people add custom admin panels to their Wordpress themes. Apparently Wordpress 1.6 is going to feature this anyway so I’m not sure wether to use this package or wait for the official version.
Web 2.0? No thanks
I’ve never understood the hype around ‘Web 2.0′, apparently the .0 is important. It’s ridiculous naming something that, in my opinion, is just a few rules for common sense web development. There’s slightly more to it than that but in essense it’s the whole standards thing wrapped up in a glowing
Anyway Kevin Leitch has written his thoughts on the subject. Kevin – I agree whole heartedly.

Christopher Walken for President
I’m not American but after Arnold (yes… I know he’s not a president but…) and Bush could Christopher Walken be any worse? I think not!
“Our great country is in a terrible downward spiral. We’re outsourcing jobs, bankrupting social security, and losing lives at war. We need to focus on what’s important– paying attention to our children, our citizens, our future. We need to think about improving our failing educational system, making better use of our resources, and helping to ...
