KISS | THE OFFSPRING | LOSTPROPHETS

Kiss = YES! Woohooooo! Hope they're on the Sunday for my birthday. Offspring = Yay, I've seen them before but not headlining a festival. LostProphets = Boo, only a couple of above average tunes, the rest is whiny emo crap.

Got a great free Devil May Cry 4 t-shirt from work too which is excellent. Our delivery of the games came in today, steelbook edition looks cool closeup too. Also, heard about the Limited Edition copy that comes with Ebony & Ivory replicas, but we aren't being supplied with them. Sucks. Wish I knew where I could get one, depending on how much it costs.

Also, why the hell isn't the Turok demo on the EU store yet???

9:53 GMT which means I'm at work in an hour and I'm still in bed. I'm not happy with the Download announcement so far. The Offspring and Judas Priest are great shouts, but LostProphets and Him???? I hope it improves later on when more bands get announced. My 21st Birthday is on the Sunday of this years festival so they better get someone amazing on to help me celebrate.

Now I'm going to go and get ready for work, I'll be on the forums later no doubt with any updates I hear about today.

Peace x

In about 20 minutes. Not back til late on tonight which sucks, but then I'll have a bit of a chill out with the lads since they just got back from Amsterdam. Well done to the NY Giants, it was an awesome game to watch with a great, tense ending. Great Super Bowl, well worth staying up til 3 in the morning to watch.

Anyway, I need to go fuel myself for some hard labour.

Just got back to Leeds after spending the weekend in York with Alun and Keiran and Beth. Also saw Alex and Luzio so that was awesome also. Got blazed a lot, played Assassins Creed and PES6. Keiran told me that he'd written a part for me to play in 11:28 (his and Pauls comedy series) with me playing the Guitar Hero Jedi.

Sweet.

This game looks great. Not much info about it yet, but I can't wait for it to be released. Check out the trailer - http://kotaku.com/351387/faith-and-a-45-trailer

...after buying Burnout Paradise, and I'm well happy with it.

After 10 minutes :shock:

If you don't follow football this won't mean alot, but this is amazing. 6 divisions seperate them.

EDIT: Liverpool equalised, but H&W have retaken the lead. 2-1 after 35 mins.

EDIT: It's now Liverpool 4-2 Havant & Waterlooville. Bit disappointing, but to be fair, it was never likely to work out for the minnows.

Or just ait here recovering from my hangover all day. I was quite drunk last night, and didnt spend a whole load either. which is good. But I also now have to decide which party to go to tonight, obviously will probably have to make an appearance at both, but I'm not even sure where one is taking place...

Burnout....

Just got back from work again, and I'm now not in again til Monday. This gives me 3 days to play Football Manger 2008, which I just purchased today. I also get paid at midnight, and should hopefully be on a shopping spree at some point tomorrow.

and I've just woke up and seen the news on Kotaku that the British advertising agency has banned a Stranglehold ad in the Uk, because it says that "violence is honorable" etc.

IN THE FUNTING GAME. JESUS FUNTING CHRIST. I despise this country more and more each day, it's an advert for God's sake. I watched an advert for AVP2 yesterday (looks sweet btw) in which about 50 billion people were shot/smartdisc'd/plasma cannoned/eaten by an alien, and that managed to pass the censors.

I can't wait til I have enough money to get out of this nanny state.

I'm actually seriously considering writing a letter/email to the ASA (Advertising Standards Agency) about this, because I'm getting sick of videogames being treated differently to other types of media.

EDIT:

As an update to my drunkenness, I apparently got back in from the nightclub, very drunk, and decided to down another quarter bottle of Jack Daniels. At which point, I noticed a picture of Josh Holloway (of Lost fame) on my friends wall. I proceed to get naked, claiming to be 'alot hotter than him' and danced around. Then I started declaring my love for Tony Robinson before somehow stumbling home and falling into bed.
