This post contains minor spoilers from the video game BioShock. My plan with BioShock was to completely ignore it. I never specifically followed it before and during its release, and I never got excited for it. Good thing, too, as I thing it came out while my 360 was gone. With so many games coming out, I figured I'd have to ignore a few, and for some reason BioShcok just didn't click with me early on, and I didn't let myself like the demo for fear of wanting the game. Anyways, Harry, who has now been mentioned in three successive blog entries, lent it to be because now his 360 bricked, and for the second time, too. Since he really has no need for the game until his box gets back, he insisted I tried it. While it's fairly short by today's standards, (and, for that reason, is a game I still don't feel I need to own) I'm very glad I did.

What's up? Just a quick update tonight. I should have a full post this weekend, I'm working on something. For the moment, I wanted to talk about Last.fm's first update of the new year.

Well, to an extent. It is Flash. One thing I don't like about it, however, is that with a rather limited selection of albums to choose from, albums that you haven't listened to in quite a while start showing up on the quilt. Not a ...

It's Tunesday again, haven't done one of these since mid-July. What Album the time around? Well, as you may or may not have determined from the title, the album is Sam's Town, The Killers' latest release. They've taken a step forward from the synth sound, but thankfully haven't left it completely. It may take a second listen before hard-core The Killers fans accept the more rock oriented music, but I'm really liking it. I'd read some thing about the album before I got it today, the band said it was a lot more rough. I loved Hot Fuss so I was hoping it wasn't too different. I have to admit when I played the first track and heard those uncharacteristic heavy rock guitar riffs come in, I was a bit sceptical, but after a couple of listens it is now one of my favourite tracks on the album. And, ...
