I've been playing more Magic The Gathering recently and I hope to do more in the future. With that in mind I recently bought some new cards. Also I've started cataloging them in an online database, so now you can view some of my collection online here: http://deckbox.org/sets/132510I've not added them all yet but one thing I found interesting it how much value they still have second hand, there's

A lot of people have been waiting for these and now they are available, mod tools for Skyrim. The Skyrim Creation Kit can now be downloaded from Steam, it's in the Tools section if you can't find it, I couldn't find it to start with. AS you probably know I've dabbled with many game editors over the years but I've never really have a lot of experience with Bethesda's offerings. I did a little

It's late and I suddenly realise that I have nothing to post about here. I suck at planning sometimes. I've reviewed all of the thing and there's nothing else interesting going on here today. The Skyrim Creation Kit has just been released which I'm looking forward to trying out, but I've not had the chance yet. Perhaps we'll talk about that tomorrow.

I've been getting behind on quite a few things this last week, the blog included. I need some time to catch up with things so no major post today, sorry. It's been a while since I've had to do a short post about nothing like this, but sometimes you just need a day off.

Winter has finally arrived in Sheffield. I started to make a little timelapse thingy when the snow started, but the majority of it happened overnight so there's a big jump. I decided it would work best as a simple slideshow.

I've been saving this picture for a rainy day. It turns out I needed it on a snow day. It's something I've done once before in the test phases but there is no record of that. In The Old Republic I've reached the point where my character now owns his own spaceship. Of course this is slow compared to many of the people who are level 50 already but I've been playing other things too.

The other comic I got for Christmas was the next in Dark Horse's Knights of the Old Republic series, Vindication. This series has had its ups and downs but this one was a good one. The fact that this volume contained lots of conclusions and epic battles probably helped a lot with that. When there's an end in sight it makes for a much tighter story compared to some of the earlier issues which

The comics I got for Christmas had been sat on the shelf waiting patiently for too long. Time to read them, starting with Spike: The Devil You Know. This seems to be a short spin-off story from IDW's After the Fall. However it appears to be set after After the Fall. Again IDW's release schedule fails to make sense, how can this be out when the full After the Fall run isn't all out in paperback

Now with film number five in the dead series we have what Romero called a "rejigging of the myth". We go back to the very first night when the zombies appeared and follow the experiences of a new group of people. However it's also all moved up to the present day (2007). A time when we all have the Internet and everybody in the first world has some kind of camera. It is shot using the "found

After a twenty year break following Day of the Dead in 1985 in 2005 we finally got a fourth installment to the Dead series, Land of the Dead. Other than the Night of the Living Dead remake in 1990 I don't know what George A Romero was up to during that time, his Wikipedia entry is pretty empty for that period. So in Land of the Dead it's now been three years since the zombies appeared and things

Final installment of the recent new album posts. This one is the new release that reminded me to pick up the other two. The new album from Lacuna Coil, Dark Adrenaline. More more striking than their previous album, I really enjoyed this. Of course I'd already heard a couple of tracks before as they previews them during their last tour which I saw late last year. The duet vocals always make for an

Another You Tube recommendation this evening. The second of the Vlogbrother's new education channels, today is the launch of Crash Course. While in SciShow each video is a complete bite of science on it's own, the Crash Course videos are going to be in much longer series. To start with John is teaching world history and Hank is teach biology. Today is the first episode of John's world history

It seems that Lego are doing more and more licensing deals these days. We've got Lego Star Wars, Lego Harry Potter, Lego Pirates of the Caribbean and even Lego Batman and Lego Superman. Gone are the days of Space Police and Blacktron, which is a shame because those we're my favorite. If there was a modern version of those I would totally buy them. The Alien Conquest series doesn't have the same

Another album which has been out for a couple of months but I kept forgetting about, the latest from Megadeth. However I'm not finding myself with very much to write about this one at the moment. I enjoyed listening to it but nothing really stood out as exceptional. It felt like just another Megadeth album not anything particularly special which is unfortunate really. There are some good moments

I've been interested in this game for a while due to some of the people working on. Produce by Ken Rolston who was lead designer on The Elder Scrolls 3 & 4, written by fantasy author R.A. Salvatore and with Todd McFarlane, creator of Spawn, working on the artwork. Probably not names that are widely known but they are to me and the idea of a fantasy role-playing game created by those three has a

After a huge tour and a bit of a break it's finally time for the second Nightwish album with Anette Olzon on vocals. This album was actually released at the end of Novemeber last year but I kept forgetting to pick it up. Finally Amazon reminded me because I'd been looking at other albums and I grabbed the MP3 download. It's an interesting album with a wide variety of styles, some of which are not

Day of the Dead is from the same era as Dawn but probably not as famous to the general public, it's still good though. Just like Dawn of the Dead it's been a long time since I last watched this. There are quite a lot more attempts at shocks in this one but it's still not really a scary type of horror film, to me anyway. As each film goes by we get a bigger scope. In Night of the Living Dead we're

Dawn of the Dead is probably the most famous of George A Romero's Dead series. As the zombie threat continues we see the story of four survivors who hide out in a shopping mall. It's been years since I last saw this film and the first thing that surprised me is all the character introduction at the beginning before they even get to the mall. I'd completely forgotten about all that. Another thing

No major spoilers here. I'm having a hard time deciding what I can write about this book which hasn't already been said by everybody else. Normally I don't read a lot of book reviews, for books I intend to read or otherwise. For the most part all my choices are either recommended by a friend or are famous classic that I ought to have read. So it's a little weird when you're suddenly read the same

It's been an odd day on the Internet with various sites going offline in protest against the new bills proposed in the US known as SOPA and PIPA. I understand the gist of these bills but I must admit I've just not had time to look in to the details as much as I probably should have. Even though I'm in the UK there are still many websites which are currently hosted in the US including some of my

Be a police detective in LA in the forties. Solve crimes and chase bad guys all while wearing a fancy hat and suit. It's like grand Theft Auto but you're on the side of the police. In fact it's published by the same company. I've just started playing this after finishing with Skyrim. However it's been a little odd to start with. This is because I watched a lot of game play videos from the game

I missed out on Sherlock when series one first aired but I eventually caught up later last year. I don't know why I waited so long to catch because it was brilliant. More great TV from Moffat and Gatiss. Now series two has just ended and I think it was even better. I love the whole modern era concept it works so well.

Well sort of, considering it's an open ended open world role playing game. In a game like this there comes a point when you begin to wonder what it would be like as a different character. You find yourself with more gold than you could ever spend, probably more than the net worth of the entire country. You own a house in every city. You're head of the Fighters Guild and head of the Mages Guild.

That's the nickname for John Green's signature, a copy of which I now have. After some ordering confusion (I switched my order from Amazon.com to Amazon.co.uk) my copy of John Green's new book The Fault In Our Stars arrived in the post this morning. I did have a look for it in the shops a few days ago, as John did ask those of us who watch his videos to "support your local bookstore". The problem

Some I had before, one I got for Christmas and the rest I just picked up to complete the collection. My backlog catchup is starting with lots of zombies. There are six films in George A Romero's Dead series. The first three (the famous early ones) have all since been remade. As I mentioned a couple of days ago, Night of the Living Dead was remade in 1990. Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead were

An I mentioned in my latest video blog, one of my goals at the moment is to clear the backlog of films and games I have to watch. So whenever I'm stuck for a blog topic, like today, then a mini review of the latest film I watched is likely to appear. So today lets talk a little about Night of the Living Dead.George A.

Last game from the Steam holiday this time around and it's a bit of an odd one, an adventure game about Jurassic Park. It's a newish release but based on a 17 year old film. Although the creators, TellTale, have also recently done a game based on Back to the Future which is older yet to me it somehow seems like a more valid choice. I mean I guess they're both famous films it's just seems like

It has been a while since I last played Magic The Gathering. With the real cards that is, I've still played the computer version. However next week I might be playing some more and that gave me an idea. In the game each player has a number of life points and of course to win to need to get your opposing players down to zero before you do. Traditionally these points are recorded on a piece of

It's not very often that I buy a film on disk which I haven't actually seen before but Cowboys & Aliens has now been added to that list. The title on its own is a big draw for a sci-fi fan like myself but then you look at all the talent behind the film and it gets even more impressive. First there's the cast, staring Daniel Craig, Harrison ford and Olivia Wilde supported by Sam Rockwell, Keith

Another pickup during the Steam holiday sale and also another role playing game. This one though is a much more traditional run around with a sword and stab monsters type of game. It does have one really interesting feature though, it's narrated, constantly as you're playing, not just in cutscenes. As you play the things you do are described by the narrator and it's really interesting how many

The Steam holiday sale is now over and as usual it has brought various new games to my attention at ridiculously reduced prices. Today I'm going to talk about one called Sequence.If you'd tried to explain this to me without video evidence I don't think I would have believed you. I would never have dreamt that it would be possible to combine an RPG with a rhythm game and have the result not only

The Vlogbrothers tend to change things up a little each year and this year they're expanding on to brand new channels. They've done a fair amount of educational videos over the years but now there will be two new channels dedicated to learning. The first of these is SciShow in which Hank Green will teach us many sciencey things in easy 4 minute chunks. Would you like to know all about

I'll probably make one of this week's video blogs about my goals for 2012 as that was also the topics in my aborted first attempt at video blogging. However I'm going to make a quick post about it here as that's generally the thing to do on the first day of the year. Of course the problem is that I not really decide what my goals are yet. Probably the main things I need to do is work on improving

I actually went back to see what I had written about 2010 before I started on this post. I feel like a lot of what I said still applies. There were good points during the year but for the most part it seems to have slipped away unnoticed and uneventful. The middle third of the year could have not existed and the result would have been much the same. At the beginning of the year I made various

This was quite interesting. When I bought this film I wasn't sure if I had seen it or not. However I could tell from the description it was something I should have seen. A science fiction film by Douglas Trumbull who at this point has just spent the last three years working on the special effects for 2001: A Space Odyssey. I noticed in the credits that it's also one of John Dykstra's first films

The idea of home is a rather odd concept. Spending a week at my parents house for Christmas feels like home, but really I've never actually lived at that house. I have my own flat in Sheffield which is my own home. So I've been home for Christmas and I've also just come home after my Christmas holiday. So where is home? I guess you can have more than one.

It's the last day of my Christmas holiday with my family, back to Sheffield tomorrow. I don't really have anything else to post about today so instead here is a picture of a cat eating a Christmas light.

I've said it before but I really enjoy live music. However I've never actually been to anything other than rock/metal concerts. This evening was time for something different though. Tonight I saw the Manchester Concert Orchestra along with conductor Paul Bateman playing classic film themes. It was a great evening featuring lots of great music from Gone With The Wind all the way to Lord of the

Had a little play with my camera and my parent's Christmas Tree. I don't have my Picasa here with me so you'll have to have an Imgur album instead. Some turned out better than others, have a look here: http://imgur.com/a/2ZmWL.

Something happened today which has never happened to me before, that I'm aware of. Someone seems to have stolen something I posted online and then presented it as their own. Of course it's only a silly GIF on Tumbr and not important I was just a little shocked that someone would consider that, particularly a Nerdfighter. These things happen unfortunately and perhaps it was a mistake, but I think

As an early Christmas present after the excellent new trailer we have The Hobbit production vlog number five, now filming on location around New Zealand. Lots and lots of trucks and Hobbiton is back.Watch on Facebook here: http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?v=10150554790416807

There are only a few films adapted from books where I have read the book and seen the film. Technically the count is 12 but it feels more like 3 as 8 are Harry Potter, 3 are Lord of the Rings and the other one of Where Eagles Dare. When The Hobbit is release that will be another 2 and if the film version of Foundation goes ahead that will be another one. I also have a copy of Do Androids Dream of

I suppose I had never really given it a whole lot of thought but I had always presumed that the Deathly Hallows was a place. I guess either way they would have still spent the entire book searching for it/them. I have heard people say that the film Deathly Hallows Part 1 was very slow and that not a lot happened. After reading the book I can understand why. It surprised my how very little seemed

If you'd told me two years ago how many words I would be writing per week now I would have laughed! First there is a blog post every day. Then there is a weekly column on new releases for a DVD collector forum and now I've got my video blogs going properly. I don't know if you get tell but the video blogs are generally scripted in advance. Even with all that I still can't seem to convince myself

And so the Project for Awesome for 2011 is over and after 24 hours of live events and video viewing over $60,000 has been raised for charity so far. It's been fun to get a few more comments on one of my videos than usual although of course that's not the reason for doing it. There is one problem though. The Project for Awesome started out essentially as an attempt to hack You Tube. At the time

It's December 17th and so today is the for the Project 4 Awesome. That the day when the You Tube community (particularly the Nerdfighters and the HP Alliance) spend 24 hours upload videos about their favourite charities, then watches, rates and comments on each other's videos to push them to the top of the charts and expose them to more people. This is the fifth year it has taken place and the

Even though you know it's coming it's still really sad and of course I didn't know any of the details. So no more of Dumbledore, what will happen next and what are you up to Snape? I know from Alan Rickman interviews about the films that there's more to that character than there appears to be but I can't figure out what his deal is.

I came across an interesting site today. It's called iCheckMovies. It's a site which uses IMDb data and allows you to create a profile and track what films you have seen and then compare lists with other users. Sort of like a social network for film fans, you browse the lists and tick the films you have seen and it keeps track of everything for you. I'm finding it very interesting. I'm sure I've

I decided for my first real character in The Old Republic I would re-create the same character I first played in the first test, a Twi'lek Jedi Consular. I played for quite a while last night staying up later than I really should have. It was mostly easy as I had played the majority of it before in test. Although one or two things have changed nothing major has changed in terms of story or

The saga begins. Star Wars: The Old Republic is released in stores next week on the 20th. However over the next seven days people who pre-ordered the game gets early access in waves, based on the order in which they registered their purchase. I wasn't expecting to get access on day one but I received my email about an hour ago as part of wave 4. It's a little odd that I get to play the game

Things are starting to get serious now. Major preperations taking place and actual wizard battles in the end. Although he did apologise in the end Dumbledore's treatment of Harry here seemed a little rough. I guess he's always kept Harry somewhat out of the loop, but it seemed to be extra harsh here with everything else that was going on. This was another good book but again I'm having trouble

So this is the first of the extended length books in the Harry Potter series. There is a lot more going on in the world outside the school this time and more before term starts as well. So even though the word count is larger it didn't actually feel longer just more detailed. The Tri-wizard competition was an interesting way to introduce other schools and characters while at the same time

That's how it feels anyway. A post about the Goblet of Fire can wait till tomorrow. So many hassles and annoyances this week and I'm sure there's more to come. I've had enough for today. Computer's going off and I'm going back to the Order of the Phoenix instead I think.

Azkaban is another name which my brain keeps mixing up. Unless I'm concentrating I always transpose the K and A making it Az-ack-barn. Of the four books which I've read so far I think this one is my favourite. I think that's because there is a lot more of the bigger picture type stuff here. We learn more about the world in general and a lot more about the back story. Not only that, it's an

One problem I'm having due to reading all the Potter books as one long story and then writing about them a week later is that I'm having trouble remembering in which book some of the more minor events took place. Looking back I remember enjoying reading the book, but of the four I've read so far it seems to be the least distinct. Although now I'm thinking more things are coming back. The

So I'd been avoiding posting about Harry Potter until after I'd finished my video about it. Now that that is out of the way and I've started reading the books I guess it's time for some of my mini reviews. Of course I knew vaguely what I was getting in to but a lot was unexpected. I was basically expecting a fun tale of Harry's first year at Hogwarts. Now that is mostly what it's about but what

Brainchild of Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard this film is finally going to be released in April 2012. This was actually filmed a few years ago but never got a release due to the financial problems at MGM. When things are so bad that Bond 23 is put on hold you can see why a genre-bending horror film would be ignored. However now sold to Lionsgate we're finally going to get to see the film and today

Oh joy. The last thing you need on a Sunday evening is signs of a hard drive failure. Now I have to make sure my backups are all up to date. There's nothing on that drive that's so important I couldn't afford to loose. Although it does contain all my MP3s. So that's been my evening. Now I have to buy a new hard drive.

I could have sworn that I'd already seen this film. However the more I thought about it the more I realized I couldn't remember anything about it. For a long time it's been the only Bond film which I've been missing from my DVD collection but last week I picked it up on Blu-ray and I watched it last night. A couple of parts felt oddly familiar but I'm now pretty sure I'd not actually seen it

Let's just have a nice photo today and then get back to normal tomorrow.

Some days I wonder why I make the effort to write something every day. It's good practice I guess but sometimes I feel like a day off. However after 637 consecutive days it seems a shame to break the streak. There's no real point to this post though except to explain that there's no real point to this post. So is it really worth it? I don't know. I'm just not in the mood to write anything

Twice a year Eve Online gets a major new expansion and they change the subtitle. So this week Eve Online: Incarna became Eve Online: Crucible. There have been lots of little fixes and updates this time rather than one major new feature, however the most obvious changes have been in the graphics engine. After the introduction of the Minmatar Captain's Quarters last time, now we have specific

As you may remember, I've been reading Dark Horse's Knights of the Old Republic comics this year while waiting for the new game. The last volume I read was number four. However finding volume five was more complicated than expected. There was no listing for it on Amazon, they skipped straight to volume six. After a little research I found that was because it was part of a special crossover called

Short post this evening. The last two weeks have involved a lot of video games and although I'm not really the kind of person who craves contact with others all the time, it has been a while since I've seen any of my friends face to face, Of course many of them have been playing Skyrim too. That's finally going to change this evening but it means I'm out of time to think up a more interesting

It's a rare occasion when one of my You Tube uploads gets more than twenty views. Yet for some reason that happened for my Skyrim Journeys videos, I was not expecting that. I'd made those videos simply with the idea that a few non-gamers might like to see some of the world and scenery we're all talking about. I figured that would only have a small niche appeal. After looking at the analytics to

It's been a while since I last played The Old Republic. Even though the NDA has been dropped on testing groups now I won't get too deep in to comparisons as it probably still applies to the old tests. I'll just say this, the core is still the same and nothing major has changed. However there have been lots of minor fixes and it feels like a much more polished game now. I've not played a lot yet

This is a continuation of yesterday's post. Things have been officially announced now and a website has appeared.http://f1.sky.com/Now we have more information for example they promise there will be no advertising breaks during the races which is good. That's already better than it was at ITV. They've got online and interactive content planned which is also good. I often watch the BBC coverage

As the season draws to a close this weekend more news is coming out about the TV coverage deals for next year. As you many recall from a few months ago the coverage in the UK is moving from BBC to Sky. A lot of fans were displeased with this news. However I've just read something interesting which if unconfirmed at this point. Apparently for each race weekend Sky will be putting on a special

I'll be splitting my time between Skyrim and other worlds sooner than expected. It's just under a month now until I head to a galaxy far far away for The Old Republic. However before that is another test this weekend. Only a weekend test this time so there won't be much to do and I won't want to complete too much only to have to do it all again at the end of December. It sounds like they're

Yes, sorry, this is another Skyrim related post. There's a video blog about 3D glasses if you'd like an alternative. I suppose this does actually apply to all open world role playing games. It's the thing that makes an open world sandbox so fun to play, the emergent game play that arises and the bond people form with their characters. Even though everybody is playing the same game we all have our

You never really notice how many film posters are similar until you see them all put together like this. I was surprized. There's a whole page of them here: http://imgur.com/a/9UiqX. Have a look!

I've been getting behind on a few things including this blog, I've been posting very late recently. I need to skip a day and catch up and continue fresh tomorrow. Sorry about that.

After a week of Skyrim I find myself thinking about Fallout 4. Bethesda used the engine from Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion to create Fallout 3 (later used by Obsidian to create Fallout: New Vegas). So it seems highly likely that the new engine built for Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim will be used to create Fallout 4 at some point. In fact I wouldn't be at all surprised if they've already been working on it

Sorry I'm a bit short on content again today due to too much Skyrim. There is of course a video blog you could go and watch, although that's about Skyrim too. Instead here today how about the new trailer for Christmas Doctor Who.

I managed an entire three days without talking about Skyrim again. However it's still the thing which is taking the majority of my free time and so I have little else to talk about today.I've been thinking about videos and the fact I haven't done a gaming one for a while. So far though I've not thought of any good presentation ideas yet. I think for now I'm going to concentrate on the video blog

Along with the latest Angel comics there was also the latest from Astonishing X-Men, another series which I'd almost forgotten about due to the slow release schedule. Here we have unexpected mutant babies turning up in Africa which mean we have a Storm heavy story. I've never been all that keen on Storm so that's not a great start but there is still enough from the rest of the team so it doesn't

Odd Doctor Who news today which I first saw on IMDb and then later backed up by the BBC. David Yates, director of the last four Harry Potter Films, is developing a feature film version of Doctor Who. It's still early days and no writers, scripts, cast or production people have been hired yet. However they do say this is to be a new and separate continuity. I'm not convinced that this is a good

While browsing Amazon for Christmas and other gift exchange related reasons I noticed that the next volume of Angel: After The Fall was finally out in trade paperback format. These come out so infrequently that I'd forgotten it was even due. I've read it and I've enjoyed it but I'm having trouble thinking of anything in particular to say about it beyond that. The art is good for the most part and

A few more screenshots from Skyrim for my blog post today as there has been very little else going on here. I discovered some interesting new places today, including a strange underground glade. I will post about something other than Skyrim tomorrow, don't want to go overboard!Edit to Add: A couple more after realizing I titled this post "views from a frozen north" and then failed to include

What else could I post about today? Not a lot as of course playing Skyrim has been taking up most of my free time. I received my delivery of the collector's edition without any hassle for a change. If you've not already seen them, there are photos of me opening the package here: https://picasaweb.google.com/109346954490780957269/20111111.The games looks great and the story so far has been

Sometimes pre-orders arrive a day early. That didn't happen this time for my copy of Skyrim. So no quick look after midnight tonight for me. Hopefully it will arrive here tomorrow without incident. As least deliverability has improved slightly now the building has finished and new signs are up. Only slightly improved though, so fingers crossed!

I was sat thinking about future ideas for videos on my blog channel when I noticed a book I recently bought on origami. It was one of those spur of the moment purchases while in the Design Museum gift shop when I was in London. I've been interested in origami for a long time but I haven't actually made anything for many years (not including making snappers out of pub flyers). The book tempted me

With Skyrim on the way I realized that I should spend this weekend making an effort to finish the RPG I was currently part way through playing, The Witcher. I knew I was past the half-way point and my weekend workload was low, so I set to it.The world of The Witcher is a bit of a strange one. On the surface it seems like a pretty typical fantasy setting but as you get deeper in to it you find the

More live music tonight and I've got to post early and make sure I'm ready on time as it's actually the first support band I'm going to see. My friend's band Chronicles Of Graham have picked up a the local support slot at Corporation tonight, it's probably their biggest gig to date I think. This will be the forth time I've seen them live which technically makes them second in the list of bands I

Anticipation is building now. People are getting order shipped notifications, myself included. Everything about the game is sounding great. I've avoided a lot of the media coverage for the game so I can enjoy as much as possible first hand. I already enjoy The Elder Scrolls series and trust Bethesda as a developer, so I don't need previews and demos to convince me. Still I can't help but feel the

Yesterday evening I went to see the band Lacuna Coil live at Corporation. They now have the honour of being on the very short list of bands I have seen live more than once. The show was great and seemed better than last time, the crowd seemed much more involved as well.
