Invade-o-Trons from Planet Q Paul E. Collins Starglider’s Review: Claims to be the worst Space Invaders clone ever made, and I would be quite ready to agree. it even tells you that there is an error that occurs quite often.BUT… it does play, and error aside, it is possible to play. Still, it is an awful game! 6/10 Dunny’s Review: This is a BASIC port of the classic 70’s smash, “Space Invaders”. And what a mind-numbingly great port it is too. …

Super Mario 3D World (Wii U): COMPLETED!

By completed, I of course mean I have beaten Bowser. Like New Super Mario Bros U, from around this time last year, that’s only the first half of the game. The post-game mop-up of stars, flags and stamps will continue for a long time, I’m sure. Apparently, it took me just under 5 hours to get this far. That’s shorter than NSMBU by some way.

There’s also one room which is completely impossible, Snooze or no Snooze.

Brown’s new budget

At first this may seem to be a bit of a departure from the usual sort of blog topics I post about here, but hold on – there’s a pay-off… So yesterday saw the new budget plans by the government. As usual, the “nasties” got a tax rise (that’s fags, booze and fuel), but somewhat surprisingly, income tax dropped. Sort of. Of course, it depends on your tax bracket and stuff, and other rises may counter anything you might gain …

Nintendogs

Oh Chris. Why must you be looked after every day? Why do you whine at me for food? Idiot dog. After feeding and watering, I took him for a walk. On the way, he found a stick. Hurrah! He then ran into Casey, who’s owner had a go at me for letting Chris poo on the floor and not cleaning it up, even though I didn’t actually see Chris do such a thing. And why would they have actual pooing …
