I forgot how much fun you can have with no money. The other night was my town's Gala where everyone gathers at the local park around a giant bonfire and gets completely intoxicated. With no money, i was doubting i could drink at all but it's amazing how generous drunk people can be at giving out their booze. It was a good night.

As many people have noticed, Giant Bomb has launched. I've been around the site quite a bit since it's launch but i think i'll wait until the post whores settle down and they get some mods in as the forums have really gone to ****. I'm all for freedom on forums, etc but some people take this freedom a little too far. I've already seen pictures of coprophilia, spamming, porn and pretty much everything else you would expect. If the forums continue in that way i can't see myself staying for very long which is a shame.

Now that E3 is also over, i can plan what games i will get and what games i say i will get but probably won't either through lack of funds or some unforeseen circumstance.

What i will definitely get:

• Fallout 3
• Gears of War 2
• Far Cry 2
• Fable 2
• The Force Unleashed

What i probably won't:

• Mercenaries 2
• Halo Wars
• Killzone 2
• Resistance 2

E3 just got a little bit worse.

E3 Impressions coming soon.

With E3 drawing ever closer, i've been preparing myself for a couple of days with no sleep to watch it. I have fond memories of watching it last year, the most notable one being waking it at 4am to catch the Microsoft presser. Hopefully this year's will offer plenty of surprises and show some great games.

I've not been doing much gaming wise as i've just not had much time. I bought Splinter Cell: Double Agent and have been inconsistently playing that on my 360 but not as much as i would like. I also undusted my PSP and have been playing a bit of Worms: Open Warfare which i wrote a review for and Burnout Legends.

I'll also be hopefully going to see WALL-E tomorrow as long as the weather improves as it's been horrible these past few days. I've heard a lot of positive feedback from WALL-E. Hopefully i can persuade my girlfriend to see that instead of Wanted which i don't really fancy.

Reverting back to E3, hopefully we'll see some great games on show. I'm hoping to see some more information on Too Human and The Force Unleashed along with Gears of War 2 and Fallout 3.

What else is everyone hoping to see at E3?

While out shopping yesterday i came across some interesting objects:

I've never read a comic book before but i thought they were pretty cool so i bought them for a combined total of around £4.

Sorry for the short and rather pointless blog.

Hi guys,

As you may or may not have noticed, i've done very little in terms of blogging mainly due to me getting Metal Gear Solid 4. I decided to raid my savings and get the 2 o'clock bus into town, bought it and played it as soon as i got back and it was worth every bit of it.

Everything about the game is just superb. The graphics, the gameplay, the cutscenes; the only thing i could put wrong about it is the frequent loading times and installation time after each act, but most are fairly short so really don't matter that much. I'm currently on my second play through after finishing the game last night and i'm still enjoying it as much as i did on the first play through.

By buying Metal Gear Solid 4, i've slowly developed a backlog of games to play. I've still got to complete Devil May Cry 4, GTA IV, Amped 3 and get some more achievements in Lego Star Wars but now that i've finished school i should have a lot more time to play them.

I also got a PM stating i got a new emblem: Which i guess is pretty awesome considering i do enjoy reviewing games and will continue to do so. Thanks to all the people who read my reviews and have recommended them.

That's all from me for now!
