Disney's latest film Wreck-it Ralph is an absolute must-see for anyone with a nostalgic hard-on for retro-gaming and the 80's arcade games like Donkey Kong, Q-Bert etc...
Although the story is the usual sugarcoated cliche that'd make a diabetic go PoP. The film is nonetheless a pure joy hunting for the easter eggs and references that are peppered throughout the film. My favourite part being a group therapy session between a random zombie, Zangrief, Bowser and a Pac-Man ghost.



It looks like Samsung has partnered up with Disney and is offering a great mini-scavenging hunt in the site over here as part of their promotion for their Samsung Note device. You even have the chance to win one if you wish to compete.





You can also watch their promotional here:


Although the use of stylus pen with a smart phone has met with some criticism, it's nonetheless a fun device with a lot of great practical features. In fact you can read a previous positive review from me here

Good luck!

Stop! Hammer-time

So where have I been to warrant such an absence?
I have actually picked up the new wonderful hobby of Warhammer 40k Think Lord of the Rings but in errr space.

The game pretty much resolves around you painting miniatures, and then using them in a tabletop battle. Except I have absolutely no interest engaging in the part where you need to actually socialize with other people. I coin the term "socialize" oh so loosely in this case however. You know, thinking about the average socially inept people playing these games. And yours kindly is not the exception to this rule, trust me.

Unfortunately it's also extremely expensive. It's kind of the nerdy way of getting rid of your wages faster than you can say "disposable income hooooooooo"

You can actually spot the gallon of mead at the back

Luckily 2012 was an absolutely stellar year in the gaming world, and this year's Steam Winter Sale is an excellent way of catching up, so I'll be hoping to write a few posts about reviewing some of this year's underrated, or down-right kick-ass games.
