Batman Arkham City - Time to Fly
Batman Arkham City - 21st October 2011It was in my hand, my precious https://twitter.com/#!/gospvg/status/127299628747071488/photo/1
Opening the packaging you have no manual just a leaflet about xbox live, Catwoman DLC code & some Rustlers vouchers?! After installing the game to the hard drive I then entered the Catwoman DLC code & press the play game option.
Minor SPOILERS ahead (I will not post about any major spoilers until my completed post)
You are then treated to a nice intro sequence and get to control Bruce Wayne into his transformation to Batman. There is no tutorial to the game reminding you of the buttons so you need to either use trial & error or read the on-screen control options. The game is very good but it has not given me that wow factor like Arkham Asylum did because it just feels like more of the same. I had a similar feeling when playing Fallout New Vegas, that was a good game but did not have the wow factor of Fallout 3.
Anyhow time for me to return to Arkham City .... Whoosh !! I open my cape & fly.

Owen Allaway - gone but never forgotten
I received this comment today on my blog and thought I would share it with you all
"And here we are, exactly a year later. We (his family) again want to say a huge thank you to all of you out there. You have not got a clue how amazing you were, and how much you helped us get thro' this. You were awesome. That we loved him goes without saying. That you all recognised his essential goodness and kindness and intelligence and gentleness and wit, and took the time and the trouble to post comments and/or come to the funeral made the unbearable bearable. Thank you to each one of you."
Tried my best to complete Angry Birds dude, got up to world 8 but with all the updates their are now 17 worlds !! with 21 levels on each world !!
Miss you big guy
RIP Owen .. gone but never forgotten
