Hey everyone hope your all ok :D
Its been a while since my last post for a few reasons really. The first was mainly just for a break from writing to relax and get some of my other projects sorted, Ive used the past few months to finish of a lot of games that I had started but never got round to finishing, these games will be featured in the upcoming posts. My main job has took most of my time up recently, which I cant complain about too much because its my main source of income and the main thing that's supporting this blog and all the games that I've wrote about so far. Finally I've also got my self a girlfriend which as you can imagine takes up most of my free time, but I don't mind :D shes a great girl and a massive change from my last relationship so I'm a much happier person :).
Anyway back to the gaming which after all is what this blog is all about.
So the past few months I've been playing plenty of different games, Some games I've re visited and finished off, other games I've started new.
The first two are games that I've played before the first Minecraft I started towards the back end of 2011 which is a game I will always load up every now and again, I recently started up a new world due to the 1.0 update that was recently realised, which gave me a whole new fresh slate to design and build. Normally I would go for a typical house 2 floors, roof, front door the usual design but after looking around in my new world I found a strange rock formation over the sea, this gave me the idea of a hanging platform home, I had no idea how I was going to do that or what it would look like but after gathering a ton of wood and dirt I started building. Let me tell you starting a building in the middle of air 40 blocks up from floor level is no easy task, anyway after the first few platforms and walkways put in position the job was made much easier.
Here's a image of the home I built and I must say its a lot safer than a house build on ground level, I never have any problems with monsters as its impossible for them to get up there, and the views you get from up there are way better than anything built on ground level.
The second game I've recently got addicted to is Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 for the PC, I first played this game in 1999 and I've loved it ever since, its that good that its even got my girlfriend addicted :). The particular one I have has the original 21 scenarios as well as the loopy landscapes and added attractions park expansion packs which I'm currently playing through, after finishing all the original parks these expansion pack offer hundreds more hours of game play which I was very happy about because stopping playing this game was just not an option :).
As well as PC gaming I've also been mainly on my PS3. Ive been playing a ton of new and old games recently, the main ones being Uncharted 3, Dead Island, Resident Evil 4 and Infamous 2. You will all be happy to know that yes I got the uncharted 3 platinum to add to Uncharted 1 and 2's platinum's yay :D And also if your a trophy collector too Uncharted 3 is a much more pleasant game to play when it comes to crushing difficulty thank god :D
Right this blog has gone on long enough I think, the next few posts will be reviews of the games I've been playing recently, a bit of news on recent game realises and also some Tec news involving tablet computers.
Thanks again for reading, its good to be back :D
