  Microsoft E3 conference

  Hmmmm before this E3 I said that MS conference would be weak, we already knew practically all they big releases and I was told there would be new announcements, blah blah blah.

  Well having seen the conference MS failed beyond my wildest expectations. Wii gaming doesn't interest me really so I'm awarding this E3 to Sony without even having seen theirs.

  MS you should be ashamed.

  The best game this summer you've never heard of

  So I don't blog very often and you'll see me talk alot about this game over the next month or 2. Bloodbowl. Based on the Games Workshop board game, Bloodbowl is essientially American Football with Orcs, Elves, Ogres, etc you get the picture. It comes with cheerleaders, helmets, pads, chainsaws, deathrollers (like a steam roller with spikes) hell even goblins on pogo sticks!

  The game itself is extremely easy to pick up but hard to master. Its the ultimate tactical game, with a degree of luck as there are dice rolls.

  Having played in the beta (which I can't talk about obviously) the gamelooks like it will beabsolutely fantastic. Build your team in single player from a starting outfit and take them all the way to the top, or compete online in public and private leagues.

  Anyhow, I'm going to stick my neck and say that come June this game will be getting AA here on GS (for fans its a cerrt AAA) and beg anyone with any interest in sports, violence or strategy game ... PLEASE GO BUY THIS GAME YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!!!

  A SW death knell? Blackbond banned.

  I've long thought SW wasn't as good as used to be. Everyone says this about many things, the Simpsons, the weather, kids behaviour, whatever.

  However, today SW was struck a blow, perhaps a mortal one. We've been bleeding many of the better and more entertaining posters (these don't always go hand in hand) for a long time due to bannings, but today we lost the King. Yup Blackbond got banned.

  Now love him or hate, and yes many hated him, Blackbond was an entertainer. Often funny, usually informative, Blackbond's posts were guaranteed to attract a crowd as he and his ego took on all comers.

  If the ban is permanent SW lost one of its all-time greats today. Sorry to see you go Blackbond, both for SW and personally.
