Had a brill H-ween thanks been putting in way too many hours at work, and as a result, I havent touched my joypad for a few weeks, so I'm looking forward to some free time to bash some buttons.

Me and my girlfreind dressed as deranged Nurses and threw some shapes at a neighbours house party, I discovered Quiche and Guiness don't mix well, and our janitor 'Bob' was born a women.

Later that night me and my girlfreind made passionate love for a solid ten minutes,

and the world righted itself once more!!

The Prodigy - Omen

As technology advances, we can sometimes overlook a few inovations that slipped under the radar, concepts that were either forgotten intentionally or overshadowed by bigger and better creations.

''The gaming glove'' is one of these idea's that has appeared on numerous occasions on various platforms. Originally a Nintendo product, it has changed appearance and colour in accordance with its designated console's.

'The Reality Quest Glove Controller' (to give it its official title) was released in 1997 for the PS1, and I've spent the last few weeks fumbling thru internet stores trying to track down this lil puppy!!

eventually Amazon UK found the fossil 'BOSH'!!! here she is..

I was already aware of a few issues with this product, through reviews and word of mouth. The most obvious being the un-natural need to abandon the thumb, the most instinctive tool for any long time gamer.

This is pretty hard to get your head round, and trying to re-train your fingers to substitute for your mis-placed thumb is a huge task, you need a lot of time and patience to learn all over again. You quickly appreciate how much work your little 'playstation thumb' has done for you over the years.

With the velcro strapping me in, I was looking 'the t*ts... I quickly decided on the first game to bust 'The Gloves' virginity, The mildly perverted b-movie title 'Demolition Girl' I figured this could be as close as I get to cupping a 'giant virtual womens ass' with a 'cyber glove'!!!

..sadly, the sensation of cupping was a little crappy!!

However the biggest challenge was mastering the directional movements corresponding to your left and right wrist actions, on paper this sounds like a natural process but SMEG!! its pretty frickin tough sailor!!... also mildly painful after a worryingly short space of time!?

But the glove on 'the whole' does work, its flawed in many respects, but its not without purpose. Just like the giant 50 foot women, its pleasing on the eye and worth strapping on.

Maybe the world isnt ready for the glove?... however when the age of single handed gameplay does arrive, ...''I will be ready!!'' With X , Triangle, Square and Circle in my right hand!!! and a Cold Beer in the other!! F.Jeff

Kings of Leon - Use Somebody

WOOO!!! so 'Shadow Of The Colossus' arrived today!! and great timing too, as I'm at my parents for a few days, so get to try it out on the big screen tv. Only thing better than a huge Colossi, is a huge Colossi on a 'BIG SCREEN TV'. So grabbed myself a pint of milk and sat back to begin the BFG thrashing.

Agro is a pretty good looking stallion, but if I had it my way I'd of given this guy some sorta Mad Max Interceptor and a rifle. but probably best I dont design games!!! I expect 'no one' would buy that concept?

Don't see why I have to save this dead chick?? Never-the-less I'm all for slaying a few Giants. YAY

The White Stripes - My Doorbell

So I tried really hard to refrain from purchasing another title until I had settled into my new pad. But I just couldn't hold back from 'Shadow of the Colossus' and its sexy screenshots.

Amazon lured me in, and so this game should be winging it to me once I've returned from a look round this new place.

Had it not been for my Macrophilia, I may of been able to stop myself, but the towering giants in this game are so impressive, I could happily watch someone play this game for hours and still feel satisfied.
