Just a quick word of advice about the downloadable content available for LittleBigPlanet.

If you download costumes from the PlaystationStore and they aren’t available for your character, make sure you have logged in to your PS3 account and fired up LBP. You must do this to ‘activate’ the content for your character.

Unfortunately, this doesn’t seem to be stated anywhere (at least I couldn’t find it) and as a consequence, I ended up purchasing another copy of one of the custome sets when all I really needed to do was login as me and start up LBP.

So, if your content isn’t available immediately, make sure you have logged in and have fired up LBP with you your character.

If you’re a gamer and you’ve not heard about LittleBigPlanet, then I guess you’ve not been on this planet much in recent weeks. So, just for you, here’s a little review.

It’s time for one of my quickie reviews folks, this time, its the latest offering from Introversion Software…

Multiwinia.

Spirit has clocked up nearly 100 hours on it, so its time to make some noise. Heres a quick review of Final Fantasy XII. (more…)

You know, I’ve had this site for a while and whilst there is a link to it in the blogroll, I’ve never actually mentioned anything about it on here (that I can recall)… I am of course talking about The Outer Reaches – The Second Beginning, the browser based space strategy game Spirit and I created. (more…)

At the start of the year, I was convinced to enter the Pascal Game Development “Big Boss” Competition 2006. The aim is simple, to develop a game, starting on the 15th January and ending on 7th May. You must use Pascal (the flavour is up to you) and the game must conform to some basic requires (levelised, mini bosses at the end of some levels with big boss to fight to complete the game) (more…)

And here we have another politician jumping on the ‘GTA is destroying our society’ bandwagon… this time its Hillary Clinton. (more…)

I came across the Darwinia website when I was just surfing around at work. It looked pretty wild. Now its been released and I’ve played the demo and well… the guys from Introversion will soon have another paying playing customer. (more…)

If you own a PS2 and like driving… you absolutely HAVE to get GT4 and while you’re at the store pick up a Logitech Driving Force Pro wheel. It takes the game to another level. (more…)

Heres the scenario… I play Grand Theft Auto and I love it. Now, I get busted for driving a stolen car and I get taken into the Police Station. Inside I grab a gun from an officer and shoot three people dead. Then, I get arrested (if I’m lucky) or shot dead (if I’m not). At this point, I say “Life is a video game. You’ve got to die sometime”. In the meantime, the families of two of the three people who were shot hire some dumbass lawyer with a reputation for claiming that video games make kids do these things (you know who you are) who proceeds to sue the shops who sold the games and the publishers of said games. And the basis for this claim… “they are all responsible for ‘teaching’ me how to kill” (more…)
