Q Is For...The Queen's Nose!



Wouldn't life be so much simpler if you could make a wish? One that was destined to come true. Or maybe 10. With just one rub of the Queen's nose? Yeah that would be great! I...wait....what???

No, no, no, that's not what I meant! Don't go rubbing her Majesty's nose!




That wouldn't end well!

Use a 50p coin instead!

I Finally Completed Blaster Master!

Well it took me long enough! You remember a little post I published last year about a game called Blaster Master? Welql I finally completed it! That's how many years in the making?

A lot.

The truth is though it was such a hard game that I would never stand a chance completing it without using the good old short cut of save states! Yes, that's the only way I managed to complete it. But I finally did it and that's another to cross off my list.

Great game.

Hard, very hard.

Definitely worth a play.

Do you rescue the frog that jumped down the hole into the treacherous underground caverns?

There's also a sequel but um, uh, well it's not very good in my opinion. A let down after the first. I won't be delving into it again.

Now...what other NES classics have I yet to finish???

New York Comic Con 2014

A Small preview of a much larger crowd

Well...New York Comic Con is ever so slightly bigger than Cardiff...just a bit...multiplied by a hundred! I knew it was going to be huge but the scale of the Javits center blew my mind!

Wow just wow and wow again!

Teen Titans go!
I travelled to New York with 3 good friends with the sole purpose of the trip being NYCC. I'd only ever been to Cardiff CC before so this was going to be a real treat. We spent about 12 days here with two of those being at comic con. So after seeing the sights and driving down to Washington D.C for the weekend we hit comic con on the Thursday and Friday as the Saturday was sold out.
