Ikaruga is being released today on Xbox Live Arcade!  Although it is going to cost 800 M$ points so I might not actually buy it, I will DL the trial version l8r.

It's a really cool shoot'em up which I used to play on the Dreamcast.

I was pretty bummed about the Arcade going up in smoke last week, but now I'm really angry!

Last night the oldest wooden roller coaster in Britain was subjected to an arson attack. 40% of the ride has been destroyed.

I have been playing Burnout online for ... well forever really, but have never been in a room with all girls!

But, that could be about to change... PsychedelicBabe is planning on hosting a girls night on Revenge!

Anyone interested in joining us for a fun night of girly races should sign up at the Xbox.com forums HERE. 

I live in the arson capital of the UK, possibly the world! At least it feels that way. There are definitely a disproprotionate number of deliberate fires for such a small town!

Last Friday the latest arson to hit Margate was in the Tivoli Arcade on the sea front. There are (or were) 3 large arcades on the Margate sea front, although they are mostly slot machines now there are still a few video games to be played.

If you are new to Revenge and looking for a friendly competition with some of Burnout Revenge's best online players why not sign up for Eezo's Pro/Am Burnout Revenge Challenge! Or maybe you are good enough to join as a Pro?

I took part in the last event and you can read about it in my previous blog.

It's been a while since my Burnout Revenge disc whirred in my 360, but thanks to Eezo setting up a mini tourney over at the xbox forums, Revenge whirred once more!

It was a lot of fun racing on Revenge again. I was paired up with Ichienkai, and we did battle with One Incognito and Bizzo. It was a really close battle too! tied up for the first few races, and if Ichi hadn't of taken me out at every opportunity we might even have gained the lead!

Sunday morning 7am - Way too early to be up right??? well, we were on our way to Wembley to go to the Play.com Live show, and we live far away!!

Suffur, Xandu and I got to Wembley at about 11am and had a good look around the main floor and mezzanine levels. It was a smaller show than I thought it would be, with only a few pods for each game.
