Okay this is my last proper post before the exams (unless I write another ). Thought I’d talk about some computer thing so I warn you now! If you don’t understand something the best thing to do is just put the name at the end of a wikipedia url for example bios: http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS will be the url for the explanation of a BIOS. Day 1 Dad comes home with a PC he’d bought for work a while ago and wants a general service (new Hard Disk, format and install OS and applications etc). I take a look at it and I’m like hold up, this is better then our my PC. He isn’t...

Well today I played on the notorious Playstation portable and I actually wanted to find something terrible with it, but surprisingly I am very pleased with it. I was playing “liberty city” and to my eyes the quality was just as good as the PS2, I am aware of the fact that many people who read blogs and who know just the slightest about PC will loath all forms of consoles, but you know what this is different. I think that I could spend a whole day in the back of a car with one of these playing games or watching movies. I think by now most probably have seen the PSP on TV or even in real...

Splinter Cell: Double Agent has been announced a few days ago. 2 Movies have been released and IGN had an interview with Daniel Roy from Ubisoft. IGN: The double agent aspect sounds like it’s more intrinsic to the game’s overall design than just the story plotline. Can you talk a bit about this? Daniel Roy: You’re absolutely right! When we came up with the Double Agent concept, we thought long and hard on what it could mean for the gameplay, especially in the context of Splinter Cell. For instance, as a double agent, you will be given dual, sometimes contradictory objectives...

AnandTech have a great 11 page article detailing with images the Xbox 360, with a good explanation of each detail here.

Ever since the first details of the Xbox 360 hit the web, gamers have drawn comparisons to Sega’s ill-fated (yet still highly regarded) Dreamcast console. There are the obvious examples – the timing of the launches or the color of the hardware – but then there are a lot of not so obvious ones, too.Read the Dreamcast-xbox360 comparison article at 1Up.com And I must say, there are A LOT of similarities. It’s actually quite frightening to see how much the Xbox 360 and Sega Dreamcast look alike, even the logo is practically the same! But not to worry, after going through the...

Sounds very useful actually, seeing as its perfectly legal!  "Tom’s Hardware has a review of the Bart PE Builder software utility takes Windows XP and shrinks the OS to your USB flash drive. Besides converting your mini-drive into an emergency boot disk, you can use the utility to load a Web browser, media burning software and more – to have handy anywhere you go. And by the way, it doesn’t violate the Windows XP EULA." From the article: "If your PC has a relatively new motherboard, its BIOS will already include the functions necessary to support USB-attached...

10 Whole years. I can’t believe it. Oh, by the way, i’m talking about the anniversary of the first Playstation – Yesterday was its 10th! It makes me feel a whole lot older, how did ten years pass by like that! I remember the release of the PS1 which was a revolution in the console gaming world. I’m not gonna lie, I never owned one – but so many of my friends and relatives did that I might’swell have. I never was much of a console guy (pc all the way) but the Playstation certainly had its place in the worlds advancing video games market, and for that I pay my...
