Final Fantasy XIV Update

I have been purposely not posting every tiny bit of FFXIV news I hear because, well IGN post enough rumour shit as it is. However when Guild member Onimi pointed out they had started updating the class section on the official website, well I couldn’t resist.

Final Fantasy XI was the first “full on” MMO we played as a guild (to be honest it was one of the first one anyway) and it was fantastic, as flawed as it was in the outset we had literally 100’s of hours of fun and team work and when the announcement came that XIV would carry the online franchise on, well we were happy.

We have slowly been given details of the new job system-esque and the site now has details on the different Disciplines and in depth details of classes inside them for the War and Hand disciplines. I will do a post once the section is complete looking at all the classes but for now I thought it would be good just to take a look at how the “Discipline” and Armoury system work. (more…)

Obligatory iPad Response Post

Obligatory iPad Response Post

It’s not going to be completely negative I promise.

OK we are PC gamers but we’re not Windows fanboys, I like Apple in general and we all have iPones, iPods etc.

That being said I always feel Apple should be going that extra mile to innovate and push boundaries, they have done it before and when they go around calling themselves “innovation specialists” and “industry leaders” I am going to expect special things from them but I can’t help feeling like the guy in this video after watching the iPad presentation.

All right so it’s over the top but still made me giggle.

I strongly recommended you put the time aside to read Stephen Fry’s very informative post on this, it’s a long one but worth it, thanks for the effort on this one Mr. Fry. Alas it is time for a less cultured opinion than his on here though, namely my own.

Lost in 5 Minutes

27 Jan

New Lost starts next month! In case you need a quick recap on the story so far (or even if you don’t), check out this brilliant video.

Watch out for the description of Jack (1005 accurate), the reference to Richard’s guy-liner and the pirate. Enjoy!

A-Team Movie Trailer

A-Team Movie Trailer

When the first news was leaked regarding the A-Team movie I was more than concerned. I couldn’t see any way the movie exec’s in their tower of shattered dreams could allow something as silly as the A-Team to be accurately redone.

As more details came out we head of the pretty decent cast list, Liam Nielson as cigar chompin’ Hannibal,  Bradley “Will Tippin” Cooper as Face, Sharlto “Fookin Prawn” Copley as crazy man Murdock and out of the box choice Rampage Jackson as B.A.
