New Video and FF on iPhone :O

OhMaGod!!

Hey guys another day another blog and I've got a doosey for you guys today.

Firstly over on my personal youtube channel I've just finished filming a short music video for a competition check it out




So yeah hope you enjoy it.

Secondly last night I was downloading some new iPhone apps, including the fighting fantasy books :P that was a shock I can tell you. After some browsing I cam across the one and only Final Fantasy, THE FIRST ONE, on the iPhone. It's been updated with amazing graphics and a new touch interface control scheme :O:O:O

Seriously if you're a fan download them from the appstore while they are there, I think that they're on sale for a short amount of time as well so make haste mine friends.

NES Unit Table

Hey guys,

Just letting everyone know about the project that I'm involved with.

A lot of people who read this, (I know that there are at least three of you xD) know about Nearly Retro the show that I play Arkiel in. Most of you will also know that since the live show has started there has been a lot of delaying with new episodes.

Part of the shows set is a table that is modelled like a NES controller, just like Kyle Downes. Except instead of being a table that works like a controller, it is going to be an actual working NES.

It will be capable of playing all NES games and will be a front loaded one. It's gonna work as long as I can get my hands on the NES insides soon.

It might not be working fully for the show but eventually it will be awesome.

I will update with pictures of the origonal table and at different stages of modding as soon as we begin.

Red Dead RAGE!!!

Okay I have been playing Red Dead Redemption this morning, even though I am supposed to be working on all my assignments from last year.

I noticed that a quite annoying feature that was present in both GTA and Red Dead is the stupid time delay on the missions.

If you arrive at the wrong time you have to wait around all day just for the mission to start. This meant that instead of spending ten freaking minutes playing a single mission so I could get back to my work I ended up playing for nearly an hour waiting for the stupid mission to start.

I don't know why they thought this was a good idea, other than artificially padding the game out.

Also I still haven't finished FFXIII, seriously the game is so dull that it kills me, however I have invested about 20 more hours in FFX since it's my fave Final Fantasy Game. I even managed to complete Dissidia by playing as Tidus.
