V4 Online
01/Jan/2010

Its amazing how much can change over time and my blog is one of those things, I have returned back to a basic website, it's just a blog nothing more, nothing less.

I might add more features at a later date such as a twitter section on the right side but it's not a priority,

I am now studying for my exams but I intend to update my blog often, and talk about stuff which I have done / experienced

Well I hope you enjoy this post, more to come soon.

P.s. if there is anything which you would like me to add from the other website or just in general just send me an email or contact me via my portfolio website

My old blog is still here and located Here

Snow + rant
05/Jan/2010

Well today is a good day for one thing and that is snow. Since the town where I live rarely gets any snow, being in my University house has the benefit of always getting snow.

snow


Now for the rant of this post:
One of the bad parts about being at my University house is that it is an ex council house (a house for people without the income to own one provided by the government and the n sold to the public). Therefore is is very cold, always cold never warm even with the heating on, it my increase to around 16 centigrade (C) but then once the heating goes it goes down by about 3 and then slowly back to 10, so yes cold, well for me anyway.

Now for my actual rant which is that I hear the house next to me, since all the houses are connected together I hear everything they say and they shout a lot, shouting at their kids which should be in school but never are, and always disrupting me thinking process as I am in the process of revising for my exams which are more important than them.

Ok pointless post I know but needed to say it with more then 140 Characters =}

Final Point
I shall update my comments page later this week, to try and stop the spammers

Light Blue Optics - Light Touch
05/Jan/2010

This thing I can not wait for due to the 'real world' applications it can be used for, well I hope so.

I have been waiting for keyboards to have screens in them for ages, just to say little bits of information e.g. twitter, and there we go, not the same but hey.

laser keyboard

[update]
Just thinking, this will probably be the thing before we all have tablet keyboards or something like that

My Next phone
06/Jan/2010


google


So yeah I have got all hyped up for this phone.

I have wanted an andriod phone since the start but due to my phone contract I have not been able to, but once it comes out in the UK I hope to get it, though hopefully it will be on O2 and not Vodaphone like the page says as no one will buy it.

I can't wait for my first AMOLED device =], ok enough fanboyism (is that even a word) for today well yesterday

SP1
06/Jan/2010

Yes microsoft have put values into your registry (If you are patched up that is) for SP1 meaning there will be a beta coming I would think in the month or two.

Strange though to think that SP1 is already coming and I have yet to have an issue with windows 7, oh well patches are never a bad thing are they... well unless they break your machine... apart from that :-)

Bioshock 2 Video
09/Jan/2010

Bioshock 2 is one of my most anticipated games of 2010. I played bioshock 1 about 8 times through maybe more, each time finding more and more things to do and things which I never noticed before.

Due to the game being short (8+hours) it made this process of going back so much easier which I hope they do in the sequal.

Anyway here is a video of the beginning of the game

Basic themes
09/Jan/2010

Well I run windows 7 on a netbook, and it's professional, but due to it being a netbook,aero is sort of out of the question, so I am left with the basic theme which is nice and all, but it's not as if I can change the colour of it wish annoys me greatly, as I would like it back for a while and not the the grey / blue it currently is.

If there is away please leave me a comment

Audi e-tron Concept 2
13/Jan/2010

I love the r8 and so much so it is my background wallpaper on my desktop and laptop and has been for many months. Now audi have created an electric version of it.

The first concept I was not keen on but this one I do like very much, sort of like a mix between the new audi tt and the r8

Sony Vaio Z
13/Jan/2010

The sony vaio Z is one of the best sony laptops I have seen for a while. This is due to the fact I hate the on and off button for all the new Vaios and though this laptop still has it, it isn't as bad.

Prototype
20/Jan/2010

prototype

Prototype is my current game of play while I take breaks between my current revision schedule.

The game so far (am about 67% through) is ok, all the missions are the same, go to the star go to the blue thing kill / sneak complete mission. Therefore making the game is very repetitive.

The appealing part of the game is using your shape shifting skills and just killing everything in your way, destroying tanks, helicopters, cutting people in half and so on. These parts of the game is fun, and though gets old it is still fun just running around holding a car and destroying everything.

The main issue I have with the game is that the game does not explain well enough how to initiate new items, I am playing it on the pc, and it seems to have controller style issues since it tries and puts everything into a few keys.

Apart from a few issues it is an ok game though I just can't wait to finish it now, as I am bored of the stupid story

Beard
31/Jan/2010

I decided to grow a beard, since I had nothing better to do and knew I wouldn't be out much so since I had one not that many people would see it.

I started it on Monday and as of right now it is gone.

I have learnt 2 things:

[1] A Beard doesn't grow correctly on my face, it isn't even and therefore I look scruffy and horrible

[2] My electric razor is amazing and destroyed the thing without hurting me unlike my old one

Bayonetta
31/Jan/2010

bayonetta
My current PS3 game I am playing is Bayonetta.

I am about 2 levels away from the finish, and I can say that:

[1] They story is great
[2] The art direction is awesome
[3] It is a terrible game

Yeah a terrible game, due to the fact I have to play it on normal just get the trophies (yes trophy w*ore). I constantly die, I have all the worst weapons, if what I do isn't perfect the game punishes me. The only redeeming part is that when you die you can continue with full health.

I would say I love the story and the fact so much random stuff happens, and the loading screens are the best loading ever in a game just because it allows you to practise moves.

The game though overall deserves a C-
