Some new videos by Havok I found pretty cool.
At long Last its Review Time
I’ve finally got around to getting myself together for writing reviews, articles, features and whatever else comes to mind while armed with a keyboard, or pen and paper. I’ve been saying this for quite awhile now how I’m going to start reviewing games and the like properly “this weekend”, come the weekend I never do. Some call it laziness but I promise you it was partly due to lack of time and energy, thanks school and a few projects I’m working on for that.
I even made the headlines
I also promise I have never, ever, ever been called lazy, just as I have never in my entire life exaggerated about anything.
At the moment the only platforms I’ll be writing about are the PS3 and PSP, and possibly some older PC titles. I’m not lucky enough to own any other consoles right now, I’m also not lucky enough to have time to play any other consoles properly.
I highly doubt I’ll write any news articles, there’s too many people with more talent than I doing such things. I may give my opinion on news that catches my eye, or sparks a match to light up my imagination.
I don’t know where the pen and paper will take me, whether I’ll just write here, or whether I’ll move up in the world to write for different sites. I have a massive urge to take out notepad++ and restyle this blog. But I’m leaving it as it is for as long as I can, I’ll try and earn a new design. Try and hopefully succeed. How I judge when I’ve earned a new design I dont know yet, I guess it’ll be one of those things I’ll just know when it happens.
That’s the intro finished, now to get writing some real content!
If anyone helps promote me by whatever means I’d be grateful, and be the guy I am, I’d return the favour.
Peace out

Gaming Spree: whats the Deal?
I thought I should write a bit about some of my future plans for Gaming Spree. And for all you people just visiting, about what if offers to you.
Apart from having the usual gaming forum which I should add is spam free although needs an injection of more members, gamer profiles, & groups. Gaming Spree offers all members a fully functioning Blog Site. Although not the best on the web… yet. You’ll have pretty much the same set up as sites such as Joystiq , Psu , and pretty much ever Gaming News site on the internet. 8Although design wise, I admit they’re not yet up to scratch, but hey look at this blog, its looking good am I right?*
On your blog you’ll be able to write reviews on all your favourite games, add writers if you feel like really taking your blog somewhere, track its stats, integrate it into twitter, let people subscribe to it, add video’s to it.
and when you really feel you pulling in the traffic you can add adverts to your blog for that extra bit of income.
All with the piece of mind that your site is run and maintained by someone else. * Dont worry I pay the umpaa Lumpaa’s well*
And soon to come for those of you who want to really push it to the next level: buy a domain name for your blog for all of €10. Which combined with your brilliant Traffic stats and Access to Pr companies *which I can easily help you get started on* :Free pre releases of Games in the post for your to review!
So now I hopefully left you with no excuse but to register, and get reviewing of those games!

Need for Speed: Shift
On 1st starting NFS: Shift an amazing video loads up, showing dreamy super cars being pushed to their limits in races, from a BMW M3 to a a Lambo or Merc. All smartly dressed in their war paint, or as I should say custom vinyls.
On viewing the video, I felt my blood racing through my veins that bit faster, hitting the apex each beat. then I thought “Meh” its only a video, of course its going to look exciting.
On a bit of a downer, the loading screen loaded again. “We’ve got hold of a BMW for this weekends race” I heard the teams captain say. Then I was put into a race .. the car was fast, graphics were great, noise.. well Jeremey Clarkson came to mind screaming “Powwa”
Handling was a bit on the sensitive side for me, but after the 1st race you’re given the chance to edit the driver settings to fit your driving style.
The selection of cars consists of nothing but interesting, dreamy cars. And with NFS’s usual great customization and tuning you can really make any of the cars your own.
With many different race modes, its a game that offers a change form the normal racing, with drifting, driver battles, and elimination events, there’s a race to meets ever drivers sty;e.
To sum NFS Shift up, its a fun, interesting, quick paced game with more than enough power under the hood cars and races to keep you wanting more.
I like the game that much, I’ve based my blog design around it!
Blog Competition
Wrote about the competition on the forums
Although atm I have no way of giving a prize, down the Line I should be able to provide some *hopefully* great prizes ^.^
So for the moment its only a friendly rivalry sort of competition. I’ll set Gs up so that yous can track your blog performance. Every week / month we can then compare visits oand views and see who wins. 
Then maybe to help each other out we could mention what we thought worked, and what didnt work,

Hello world!
This is to be my home on the web now. Where I’ll be writing about pretty much all my rants, gaming related stuff. Basically anything I feel like writing about, that isnt directly to someone, in a forum post, or on techspree.
I’ll be testing out features here too, and other silly stuff. But mostly all my gaming reviews
What this space ^.^
