Owf! I have a siberian husky called William! My youngest lad’s doag ran away because he hadn’t fed it for about a month, so I’ve sneaked a go of his copy of Nintendogs (purely for research, you understand) and it’s ACESEXBEST. Right now, William can answer to his own name, sit, and eat a lot.

Well, after my love-hate relationship went through a lost-forest-shaped hate arc, I finally got out of the section in question and it’s back to love again. I think. It’s bizarre – on the one hand, I can’t make up my mind if I actually like the game or not, but on the other I’m still

Well, I found rhe Returner hideout and had a little confab with my little gang. Then I had a very exciting adventure on a little raft, which ended up in three people heading back to Narshe, someone being washed out in the rapids and another going to delay the empire by infiltrating a camp. I

Finally broken the ennui enough to fire up the PS2. I picked up where I left off, skulking in a little village to the south of the starting point. Had a quick gallop about on a chocobo before heading off for the Kolts mountain where I auto-crossbowed a large number of nasty beasties before confronting

Having a bit of a love affair with this operating system just now. I’ve been using Linux in various guises since 1994 or thereabouts, but moved to FreeBSD at work and Macs at home a few years back. A good friend of mine introduced me to Ubuntu before buggering off back to Germany a few

 This was the second game I bought for my first Gameboy Advance, several years ago. I remember thinking at the time that it was a pretty vast game to be stuffed onto a tiny little cartridge. In the end, I clocked well over a hundred hours on it but, as I’d missed some side

Well, except Mario Kart, obviously. I’m suffering from gaming ennui just now.

Some of the more straight-laced denizens of UGVM swear blind that these don’t exist. I present the following in my defence. Case close. Victoly Get.

This is an odd game! For starters, it didn’t cost me anything, and that can’t possibly be bad! It’s a turn based RPG (just what I like) but, well, odd. Rather than freely wandering around world map and dungeons, your characters wander into static screens on their own. At this point, icons mapping directions to

Damn you! Damn you to hell, deKay! If evil were distilled, shaped into human form, and given a mangstache, it would be called deKay. At least last night he only scraped a 7-1 victory, but tonight was a round 8-0. Annoyingly enough, I kept right on his tail for most of the races, but was
