Conflict: Denied Ops Review

All the versions of Conflict: Denied Ops are almost the same where you are supposed to fight the bad guys. Moreover, we can call this version the simplest one yet. Although, the action involved in the game is eye catching, the traditional way of fighting the bad guys just makes the new version of the game like the older versions to shoot the bad guys. Co-operative play and diverse terrain are the key features and for this it is getting Read the rest of this entry »

Why Your Newly Built Computer Must Have graphics Card

There are many people who think a graphics card can add ultimate charm to a new computer. For this reason, people choose to buy a computer with the basic minimum features and buy a graphics card along with it but this is very harmful in the long run. You need to avoid doing so for the following reasons despite buying yourself a new system-

· A graphics card adds visual effects to your game application or desktop. The effects will Read the rest of this entry »

I love my iPhone

My name’s Steve, and I’m an apple addict. I love my iPhone more than I’ve loved any other bit of technology in my life.

My love affair began when I was “sort of thinking of getting a smart phone”so that I could play music and browse the web on my phone (find the best place to get laser hair removal cheshire done and all the other important things in life). A friend of mine gave me his old 1G and Read the rest of this entry »

Review: Digital Comic Museum

DigitalComicMuseum.com is an amazing resource for comic book fans, and anyone looking to blow some time. It’s packed full of hard to find comics, and if hard to find isn’t what you’re looking for, I’m sure you’ll find comics on this site you’ve never even heard of. Not to say it’s a bad thing, but the majority of the comics on the site are old, and no longer copywritten.

I spent about a solid hour or so just browsing through Read the rest of this entry »

Game Over

I have always, always, always been scared of escalators. There is just something menacing about them.

In one of my worst escalator nightmares (there are several, all of which end in me being got by one in a different awful way), I have, somehow, and I don’t know how anyone could do this – especially when they take such care to assess the dangerousness of an escalator before setting foot on it – got on one which goes down and Read the rest of this entry »

Red Dead Redemption

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have been a cowboy in the old west? I know I have and I could take a pretty good guess that most men, in their childhood, dressed up as, or imagined themselves as a cowboy. Bank robberies, gangs, horse liability, shooting duels and classy old saloons, the whole world of a cowboy seemed to be riddled with action and adventure.

With the release of Rockstar’s latest game; Red Dead Read the rest of this entry »

A box of nothing, the best present ever?

You think you’ve seen it all haven’t you? The most pointless presents you get for your birthday ever, like the ice cream maker gathering dust in the bottom of the kitchen, of those hand towels your mother in law gave to you, or the old fondue set which is lying in the garage as it has been the bane of a diet.

However the one item you do not want on your Birthday has to be this- The box of Read the rest of this entry »

Proper Sized Is Best

Remember proper-sized keyboards? Don’t pretend you don’t know what I’m talking about. I mean those keyboards that weighed a ton and only a minor-earthquake could move. They were good things them. They had presence, a certain toughness to them, and they felt industrial, as if they were as good a weapon as a computer accessory.

I am certainly in to computer accessories that double-up as weapons. There was a story in the paper last month of a man who was Read the rest of this entry »

Projector Love

I love projectors as much as I love my saucony running shoes (and I really do love them, I’m a runner through and through). I got my first when I was fourteen and, although it’s now broken, it still occupies a place in my heart that will never be replaced. Of course, it wasn’t always good. My projector regulalry put me through hell and made my young life a misery. Why so? Well, It was large, difficult to use and Read the rest of this entry »

The Gent

Back in the days before people were able to sell a home via the internet because they are in that much of a hurry, some people used to say to me that I was ‘old before my time’ and I never did know what that meant. Just because, like the other children, I used to wear my neat little suit and tie and polished black shoes, that meant that I was somehow strange. This continued all through school. In fact, Read the rest of this entry »
