Â
I loved Hunter: The Reckoning on PS2, so I decided to pick up Redeemer on Xbox. It seemed a hell of a lot easier than The Reckoning.
As with the other Hunter games, this one is made to be played with friends.
One player mode gets a touch boring after a while. Any way, my secret to [...]

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, “Paramount Pictures is ending its 14-year relationship with Tom Cruise after the disappointing performance of his latest film, Mission: Impossible III.” Paramount have apparently put the bust up down to Tom’s “bizarre off-screen antics”.
This story saddened me. MI3 wasn’t a terrible film, I mean there were moments that I [...]

As far as I’m concerned any show that opens with the statement “viewer discretion is advised” is worth watching at least once. If you haven’t seen it, ‘The First 48′ is like ‘Cops’ but without a cool theme song, and is a bit more intense in that it follows homicide detectives during the first 48 [...]

Turn on your lava lamps kids, ‘Black Holes and Revelations’ is psychedelic, 1970’s inspired, art-rock, and it is arguably the best album Muse have released to date.

That’s Direct Marketing.

This is what happens if your sitting in a truck that’s rolling sideways down a hill, and your not wearing a seatbelt.

Not pretty is it. If nothing else, it reinforces one simple fact. Without a doubt, the most important of all truck accessories is the seat belt. It amazes me that even after all [...]

One minute I’m lying down watching a DVD, the next I’m down at the supermarket browsing drain cleaning products. What happened you ask? Good question.
I was lying on my bed watching “Anacondas: Search for the Blood Red Orchid” enjoying a tall cold glass of Coke Zero. The movie was rubbish, although it did make the [...]

‘Define The Great Line’ is an album that drags you in with some awesome off-kilter guitar work, and then pushes you away with some annoying and generic scream/whine vocals.

“Enter the Chicken”. A title like that could be taken a number of ways. Buckethead?returns, and?this time he drags his friends along for the ride. With friends like Serj Tankian (from System of a Down) and Saul Williams, ‘Enter the Chicken’ ranges from the psychotically heavy to mellow and laid back.

Since I’ve been getting phone calls requesting ‘a few minutes of my time’ to complete telephone surveys, I thought I’d investigate whether it was possible to make any money (legitimately) through answering surveys. I filtered through a lot of crap until I found a couple of legit options.
The first is Pure Profile. Since I signed [...]
