What, you never vault over a bloke's head when you leave a launderette? I remember the game from E3. I just had a look at the car crash on Metacritic. Is it trying very hard to be the new Ride to Hell Retribution?

Work make me use a bloody iPhone, like I'm some sort of apple wanker. It is nice to chat to Siri sometimes though. She sometimes responds surprisingly positively to being told that I love her, or even just being wished good night or thanked nicely. Chatting up the electronic voice there nice.... We've finally discovered the identity of his "new female".

Also,the kid's hands are all at the wrong angle to plant both hands on the guy's head, and then it cuts to both hands going down. Shoddy.

One hand is clearly ready to plop down onto head, and although the other appears to be raised, he is rotating his body and could easily swing that hand down and place it on the man's head.

Also to reiterate that "smart" TVs are the worst, mine had decided to switch itself off last night, meaning the remote wouldn't switch it back on. Sony really need to work on their user-interaction priorities. I love it when it decides to reboot for no apparent reason (once a fortnight), when the remote stops working (pretty much once a week), the boot sequence taking ten minutes. All thanks to Sony's piss-poor implementation of Android. Yep, all of that! Maybe they should have stuck with their own Linux-based interfaces like they had on the PS3. That worked, and actually responded to user-input.

Or get the mob that do Android for the Sony phones as they are really good.

I'd like to see the kid try that with a few beers in him,
Hi Destry, you still in Crystal Palace ... seems appropriate as it's becoming a home for the retired, elderly and indigent. Why else have Woy as the manager / undertaker. I got lost there once. 2.5 hrs. trying to find the right tower off the right roundabout on my motorcycle; only saw contorted faces through car windscreens mouthing obscenities at me. Felt like I was in an episode of Lucifer (I watch this so I know who I'll be trying to get to play a game of something)
As you were

Hello Mr C.
Yep, still in Croydon. Pleased to hear you once again beat the Grim Reaper. Glad to have you here. We've even got Mr Tiddles from the old Afterbox.
In other news, today I bought a replacement wired XBox controller to use on my laptop as my last one died on me. Unfortunately it's a Crystal Afterglow which lights up like a Christmas tree when I plug it in. I need to work out how to switch off the bright blue LEDs.

Chumbles I was also but a lurker back on the old box, but I remember you well from the afterbox (which is usually more active here than the old box, I reckon?). Glad to hear you're still going.

Games! I have been playing Shadow Warriors 2 on my laptop using my new XBox 360 controller.
It's gameplay has been described as like Doom with a potty mouth and Japanese decor.
So, fart and penis jokes abound. No doubt many of you enjoyed it?
4 stars?

Work out done, pizza dough rising and I'm having a can of verdant's 'don't tell gus'. Does it get any better?
It does, I'm off next week.

I make pizza most weekends, got any tips? I currently blend a can of tomatoes, chilli's, oregano, garlic and tomato puree into a sauce. Incorporating the garlic and chilli leaves room for other toppings.

Chuck it in the bin, and fly to Florence for a decent pizza in a friendly restaurant instead.

I often make fake pizzas using tortilla wraps as the base, with mozarella, a sauce made from a mixture of passata, tomato puree, olive oil, oregano, garlic powder and paprika, and toppings of your choice.
Heat the wraps in a dry frying pan, turning once. Add the sauce and mozarella and top with whatever you want. Place the pan under a preheated grill until the pizzas are bubbling.
Serve.
4 stars.

Homemade pizza? The best. I usually do a marinara with anchovy fillets and black olives or a deluxe pescatore with all the seafood because it's not available from the supermarket.
Dinner was meatballs and pasta. Games: Beat Cyrus's third chapter boss in October Travelodge, bit too easy.
Checked my free space (still good) and pre-downloaded Smash Bros. With all the DLC. Double gold coins for that, that's £8.26. They got me with that Piranha Plant.

Pizza wankers.
I made a chilli. A three bean chilli. With added meat. Want to know the beans?
Firstly, the king of beans, the black eye. Then the filler, The Butter bean. Finally, the red kidney bean.
Lovely. 4 stars.
