Grand Theft Auto IV (360)
I’m starting to run out of things to do now, which is a shame. Having said that, I’m not going to milk it for all it’s achievement points, because some of them simply aren’t fun and will spoil my memory of the game. I finished off nicking all of the cars Brucie wanted (it turned out my email inbox was full, so wasn’t getting emails from him), which took most of today’s play. I went on some heli tours – …
Grand Theft Auto IV (360)
Dwayne’s special “power” GET! Jacob’s special “power” GET! And, thanks to finally getting hold of Brucie and taking him out loads of times, Brucie’s “power” GET! But I still can’t nick cars for Brucie, even though his like for me is now 94%. GTA Glitch WatchAside from Brucie’s not-sending-me-emails bug, the game stops working every time I try to got for a heli ride with him. I call him up for one, drive to his house, and the game “takes …

Grand Theft Auto IV (360)
I’m trying to build up relationships with all my in-game friends at the moment. Packie and Jacob in particular, as their like for me are both very low. Spent most of today’s play doing that, but also nicked another couple of cars for Stevie. No emails from Brucie though about nicking more cars for him, although he only likes me 35% so that might be it…
Fillum Review: Thir13en Ghosts (2001)
This was on at some point during the week, and my shiny new V+ box was set to record it. It’s a film that sort of interested me when it firm came out but I never actually watched. Got round to seeing it last night, and… was a bit disappointed. Firstly, it isn’t scary. So I can’t put it down as a horror film, as it’s too silly. But then it can’t be a comedy (even though Five billed it …
Civilisation Revolution Demo (360)
I was really hoping this was going to be rubbish. Because I tend to get hooked on Civ games and since I don’t play computer games any more I thought I was safe… But, as I feared, my “one quick go” lasted over an hour and I ended up running out of turns in the demo. So it has to go on my “want” list. I blame The Rev. It’s all his fault.
Grand Theft Auto IV (360)
Yeah so anyway. It’s complete but there’s still stuff to do! By day, I’m friend-to-all, taking my chums out for meals and drinks and games, and by night I’m nicking cars for Brucie and Stevie. It’s an ace double life! Only Brucie isn’t sending me emails with requests for cars any more. I think it’s because his like for me is only 35%, but I can’t increase it as he never answers the phone! Pff. What percentage do you have …
Battlefield: Bad Company Demo (360)
As I’ve said before, I don’t like soldier games. Medal of Honour and Call of Duty both bore me to tears. Every other soldier game I’ve played since, well, Cannon Fodder I suppose, has been “meh” to me. So imagine my surprise when I found this to be just as tedious. OK, so it’s pretty and funny and the way you can blow holes in walls is nice, but it’s the whole “being a soldier” thing I don’t like about …
Toki Tori (Wii)
Completed all of the remaining “Scary Castle” levels today, followed by the first six or so in the Sewers. But now I’m stuck. Bah.
Beerating: Ename Blond (6.5%)
It comes in a bottle the same shape as Duvel, but although it’s almost as stong, it tastes much lighter. Very nice! Beerating: 4/5
Beerating: Jupiler (5.2%)
It’s clear, it’s smooth and it doesn’t taste nearly as strong as it is. Lovely! Beerating; 4/5
Grand Theft Auto IV (360): COMPLETED!
At 57 hours game time, and on my third attempt, I completed the final mission and killed Dimitri. Game over! And around 20 minutes of credits too – they even name the office receptionist… But I wasn’t happy with the outcome. Someone dies, and I didn’t like it. So I went back to a previous save and chose to kill Dimitri then rather than work with him. The result? Another death. A different death, sure, but one that was a …
Grand Theft Auto IV (360)
Played mainly online today. Started off with a bit of Free Play, then Deathmatched for a game or to, before finishing off the session with several rounds of Mafiya Work. The latter of which was actually better than I was expecting, but seemed far too random to require much skill – whoever was nearest the target when it appeared tended to “win”. After that, I was kicked off Live for some reason, so played offline for a bit. I attempted …
Fixing jrnl_wrap_error on Windows 2000 SYSVOL shares
I came across this strange thing today. One of the domain controllers wasn’t picking up new group policies. Basically, there were fewer folders in the policies folder in SYSVOL on that DC than in the others.¬¨‚Ć Looking at the event log, the following was thrown up: Event Type:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć Error Event Source:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć NtFrs Event Category:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć None Event ID:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć 13568 Date:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć ¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć 06/06/2008 Time:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć ¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć 12:17:46 User:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć ¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć N/A Computer:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć GWEN Description: The File Replication Service has detected that the replica set …
