I'm just this geek, you know? Love comics, though not a regular reader - Love gaming, PC, board games and wargaming, and reading Sci Fi. Chairman at my local wargaming club, I play X-Wing and occasionally 40k (But mostly X-Wing!) By day I work in eCommerce, by night I'm either still working, reading, watching or writing :)

E3 - Ubisoft want you to be free - And do wierd stuff too!

Ubisoft started the week with a range of new looks at upcoming games, from Ghost Recon Wildlands, Watchdogs 2 and For Honor, to Just Dance 17 and Steep. An overall positive and upbeat show, the section on the Assassin's Creed movie fell a little flat in a show about games, but well tried!

A Beautiful Planet - IMAX 3D Premier

A Beautiful Planet - IMAX 3D Premier

"A Beautiful Planet" is breathtaking, especially in IMAX 3D - It's totally immersive. Toni said in her introductory speech that what made the most impressive footage possible was the Cupola Module, with it's clear view of the earth passing below the ISS. It's hard to believe that you'd ever want to do anything but look out the window while there. The view is breathtaking.

Megamagic: Wizards of the Neon Age

What is "Megamagic", exactly? So, let's start off being honest - If you didn't like the 80s, you may not like Megamagic. It's still a lot of fun on it's own, but it is gloriously cheesy - It's like watching Michael Knight riding into an arena stood on the roof of KITT escorted by Airwolf and Automan, while Queen play "Princes of the Universe" before an audience wearing shellsuit tops, ripped jeans and bouffant hair dos with blonde highlights drinking New Coke. It's also got colourful, well-desig
