Bye Bye Windows...

One for all the Windows/Microsoft/BIll Gates haters here. A user (read non-geek) friendly way to install Linux onto any PC... go here to see it.

Basically you download a Windows installer type program that sets up Linux for you, Debian in this case, dead easy, even a wookie could do it ;-)

Its dead.....

Well, my poor little Xbox 360 is dead. I turned it on to play a little online Gears and it flashed up the 3 nasty red lights... its all over :-(

Its going to take 2 weeks to get it fixed as well, shocking!

Anyone care to donate me a 360? :-)

Wanna be Robocop?

Get a load of this guy!

I guess he wanted to be Robocop or Master Chief more than the rest of us!

Who ya gonna call?

It seems a new ghostbusters game is in the works, even better its for the Xbox 360 :-) Sadly, theres some stupid licencing issue holding it up, but from the sample footage available here it looks great! Can't wait :-)

UPdate : Better videos here.

Extra extra extra!

Spent a nice relaxing day at the movies today, which is good as the flu is still killing me. Heres a short review of each of them just for you :-)

Deja Vu... Interesting movie, but predicatable but entertaining enough. Not one to buy on DVD methinks!

Employee of the month.... Nice, trashy fun. Absoutley zilch cerebral entertainment, but it raised a few belly laughs andkept a smile on the face.

Pans Labirynth... Slightly surreal, very weird and hugely entertaining, shame I don't speak Spanish, but worth seeing none-the-less.

Right, its late so off to bed we go, g'night!

Viva!

Well its one day into the new year and I've already got a new addiction! Viva Pinata on the Xbox 360 :-)

On paper it sounds a bit crap, but once you play it, you find its addictive just like Simcity or CIV was in previous years. I can me losing may days to this game... oh well! Makes a change from killing people in Gears of War (which I'm almost finished playing on Casual...)

One other thing to note, if anyone wants ideas for presents for me (hint!) theres now a link to my amazon wishlist on the left of this page... get those credit cards out!
