“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”
Once again, the weekend arrived, and once again it disappeared in almost no time flat. We are yet again confronted by the awful spectacle of Monday, wherein we must somehow gather the enthusiasm – almost all of it faked – to grind through yet another...
Yes, this is late again, and that is because I was at a concert on Friday, and then spent most of Saturday recovering. If you have ever been to a death metal concert – never mind a Viking death metal concert – you know how much that takes out of you, especially as you...
The latest triple-A game to launch and faceplant, HARD, has been, of course, Gears of War: E-Day. The independent media has been full of news about just how bad things have gotten for that game – and, weirdly enough, this is one game where the backlash is, at first...
Over the past few days, we have all been subjected to a veritable barrage of FEAR-PR0N. It started with stories about an Omani pilot suddenly going all JIHAAAAAAAAD and suffering a premature detonation (of sorts) on a Flydubai flight to Izzrael. To be slightly more...
Well, that was the weekend all done and dusted, unfortunately. And now we have to get back to the mundane drudgery of the 9-to-5 – which is especially painful if you have to waste a lot of that time crafting PowerPoint slides. I swear, if there is one...

I missed the instalment from last week, out of a combination of sheer laziness, and a dire need for sleep (due to having what in most cases amounts to a mild cold, but for some reason ended up being a proper Man-Flu). So, this week, in the wake of the MFIC’s...
By random chance, a video from a trainer and coach in his mid-forties, with three small kids, crossed into my EWCHOOB feed the other day, in which the guy talked with refreshing candour and directness about the need to stop dicking around and wasting time in the gym:...
Once again, the weekend has come and gone FAR too quickly for anyone’s liking. And once again, we are forced to contend with the horrible results of… MONDAY. In my case, I spent the past week recovering from a cold – well, that is the prosaic name...
Fresh off the total failure of HALO: Campaign DEvolved, Microslop moved a couple of days ago to essentially shut down Halo Studios, or whatever it is called, and has now shunted all future HALO development to… Activision: Xbox announced another major shift Tuesday in...
