Trine turned up today, pretty good going for free delivery since I ordered it from an Amazon seller on Tuesday, dispatched yesterday afternoon and arrived this morning via Royal Mail. Today has been somewhat eventful. Read on.
I guess by now you have seen;
Well JohnnyUtah has done it again, Epic Beard Man win.

I looked into the story a bit the first time I saw it, I feel sorry for the old guy, there is a lot going around about who actually started it which isn’t clear but it seems like the video only cuts in half way and you miss the start of the argument, the black guy clearly says “I said, why a brother got to spit shine your shoes” when you haven’t even heard him say that on the video. Either way it seems to have just been a miss understanding that went too far.
Look what turned up today; Company of Heroes for PC which I grabbed off ebay for £4.20, another game on The List I now own and once I’ve finished either FarCry or Super Smash Bros: Brawl I’ll be able to play this. I also have bought Metal Gear Solid 1 through 3, for a total of about £14 including postage, will post about those when they arrive.
I’ve included some gameplay for your viewing pleasure if you haven’t seen it in action and want to know what its like.
So here we are in 2010, I’ve finally got round to getting this blog back up as I may as well use the hosting I have for something. I have decided that I will start this new blog off with a topic I will probably touch on a fair bit as I work my way through “The List” which it will known from this post forth. Being a gamer, a fairly hardcore one at that, I have many games that I want to play each year, each year more are released and so on however I don’t always have time to play them and for many years played Halo 2 and 3 competitively which ate most of my free gaming time (something I may post about at a later date). This inevitably meant I ended up with a large list of games that I haven’t finished, haven’t got round to, or plain forgot about them at the time; so I created The List, a list of must play/try (in some cases) games that I will slowly work my way through, while adding ones that are released. Some I own already, some I will rent, some I will buy, but all will be played and completed, unless of course they turn out to be different from what I expected, read: Boring.
I have provided the most recent version of the list which I copied from the wave I update it on, I will post on updates to the list but I will probably not post the list in it’s entirety again; Continue reading to see the full list.
