When Do Games Become Too Big?

I'm currently playing Far Cry 4 which is a fantastic game and it's taking up a great deal of my free time. I received the game at Christmas along with a few others to add to my ever growing pile of 'to play' games. However, Far Cry 4 is that huge that my other games aren't getting any attention apart from the weekly high score challenges I participate in.

Ok, so I could take a break and play some others but once I start a game I now try and play it until it's complete as in the past I've taken a break from games and rarely or never returned to them. 

V Is For...Voltron! Defender Of The Universe!

If Power Rangers was an anime then this would be it. I knew little of this old one from the 80's until my friend in work told me about it and lent me the first season to try. It's good but not my favourite anime.

The similarities to Power Rangers are undeniable though. The Voltron Force consists of five pilots sent to protect planet Arus from alien forces. They each command a robot lion which then combine together to create a giant robot known as Voltron. Didn't guess that did you? The Japanese love their robots after all. Each pilot also wears a different colour uniform just like the Power Rangers costumes.

Marine Boy Live Action Fan Film Facebook Page!

Greetings all! You remember my interview with Rick Idak a few months ago concerning his career and upcoming Marine Boy fan film? Well the Facebook page is up so please head over and drop it a 'like'.

I'm also happy to announce that I'm now part of Rick's team and I'm involved in aspects of the story and some design. As I'm based in the UK and Rick in Australia I'm his UK President which sounds pretty cool.

The Consistency Of Inconsistencies

Ever since contacting Rick Idak about his upcoming Marine Boy fan film we have kept in touch over email and recently were discussing the inconsistencies in cartoons and TV shows.

For instance, have you ever been watching an episode of your favourite show and suddenly notice something isn't quite right? Is the characters costume a different colour from before? Are they stuck in a situation they easily solved a few episodes back? Shouldn't Spider-man's spider sense have warned him about that danger? How can Superman touch that Kryptonite and not be affected!  

U Is For...Ultros!

There are many classic Final Fantasy characters but a purple talking octopus named Ultros is definitely in my top 10 of all time! Ultros is a recurring character in FFVI, often turning up to cause trouble for the heroes. He's seen more as a comedy act rather than a truly evil villain although he does think very highly of himself.
