Usually it is to inspire a sense of wonder. That even as humanity breaks the light barrier and develops massive space ships, they're still little fish in a big sea. And also, in our own history there have been a lot of lost empires that regular people have to make space for. Most of the roman...

If any gamer of 10+ years of gaming picks something that isn't Timesplitters 2 they are a dirty, dirty liar.

Hmm, I'm tasting a lot of bitterness. I met my girlfriend because she overheard me complaining loudly about Spiderman: One More Day and came over to talk about it. Our first day was at my house to watch Star Wars. Love doesn't have to happen the way Hollywood tells you - and rarely does.

When I signed up for my first contract for a mobile phone. It just hit me all in a wave, very suddenly. That I had a contract, it was my responsibility and mind alone to pay it. That they ran a credit check on me before letting me sign up. At the time it was fine. An hour after walking out the...

I think of T-rex as a land shark. The apex predator that won't turn it's nose up when a massive sauropod of hadrosaur dies, prey it would never normally be able to catch, but will rely for most of it's diet on hunting. There are partially healed Triceratops hip bones which suggest T-rex at...

My parents say I was never a child. Sure, once I was smaller, but I was never a true child. I was always serious, forthright and knowledgable. I was making up my own jokes by 18 months and had memorised encyclopaedia's by the time I was 5. I guess maybe my childhood died somewhere in between...
