E3

E3!!!!!!!!!!!
I really shouldn't ave been as obsessed as I was about e3. It was on during a wk when I had 4 exams so i should of just revised (which I mainly did) and most of the games shown I won't play as I'm not taking my playstation to uni so there is no point in buying any new games. Although I tried to resist E3 news i couldn't help it and ended up watching all the press conferences.

For those of u who r confused as to what E3 is I'll explain. It's a gaming convention where Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo show off what's coming over the autumn and next year to their console.

Microsoft's conference was ok. Showed some nice demos at the start but then they rambled on about kinect for a hour. Kinect  is a camera that allows u to be the controller. Basically eye-toy but better. then they showed off a new console and that was that. I would give it a C+.

Sony showed some 3d stuff and move (their motion controller) , both of which r silly. Infamous 2 had an awesome trailer which shows the beast :).Kevin Butler (who I love came on stage) and Gabe Newell who originally hated the ps3 admitted he was wrong and then showed portal 2!!!!!!!!!!! Portal is one of the best games u can get for the pc. I urge u to get it. Just download steam(which is free) and then buy portal for £15. Sony also showed a paid version of their online thing and twisted metal. I would give it a B

Finally Nintendo who stole the show. The 3ds is amazing and u don't need glasses. it also has better graphics than a psp (I think) just look at these screen shots showing the difference between the ds and 3ds:



Also there will be a ton of games for it. Anyway i would give it an A.

I think I've bored u enough with gaming news but here is the infamous 2 trailer:

XBox 360 | Playstation 3 | Nintendo Wii

Bye

I'm back

Sorry for my nearly two month long absence but I'm back and with a new template as blooger updated their design features. I know ur shocked that I'm back and so i am. 

So life. where shall I start? Well my exams r all over :). I think all 7 of them went fine. Both general studies were just silly (seriously sporting spirit (hits head on table)) The exam I was most nervous for was history as I was scared that the moment I went in to the sports hall I would forget all the dates. Luckily I didn't. Hopefully I did fine but we'll find out in August and I'll hopefully be off to Cardiff.

Remember that penguin. Well his name was (drum roll...........) IAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

My middle name is Neil (so I and N)

No of letters is 3 as it's a magic number

and that last bit was all about the letter A

IAN

simple.

So I'm now on a 3 month holiday. Hopefully it'll involve a lot of socialising. Or I may just go into hibernation once I work out how. 

Tom has now gone :(. Well he is still in England but he's spending the next few days with his relatives. We said farewell to each other on Sunday. He's going to try and skype me next Sunday from Canada so I can ave a tour of his flat. He had a gd birthday. I gave him the dvd thing (which is now on fb), a box full of goodies that u can only buy in England (party rings, polos, tea ect.) and some money. I'll miss him but I'll go over there next summer to say hello. Until then the only way I'll see him will be via my computer doing video chat.   

I'm now going to get back to chilling.

Bye
