The Pick Of Destiny Hero

Now this is just awesome, Tenacious D the self proclaimed gods of rock have gone and put up a ‘Guitar Hero’ style game on their website.

Gears of War

I got my greasy paws on Gears of War Monday (thank you Dicksmith for breaking the embargo) and have been giving it a right thrashing over the last couple of days…

Oh my god this game is brilliant.

There was a fuckload of hype surrounding this game as the ‘Game of the Year’, ‘Must Have Title for XBOX 360′ and the very ambitious ‘Best Looking Game Ever’ and ‘Best Game Ever’

I am happy to advise that this game wins everything hands down.

What just happened…?

To cut a long story short I got drunk last night an bought an Apple MacBook.

 

 

 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
 2GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM-2×1GB
 80GB Serial ATA @ 5400 rpm
 Superdrive 6x

 

It should ship early next week and I’m hoping to have my grubby hands on it the week after.

I love drinking

If you don’t already know…

If you have never seen Arrested Development and can’t be bothered buying the DVDs or downloading the show you can now watch it online at http://arresteddevelopment.msn.com

Now not to build too much hype for this show, but it is one of the greatest comedies ever written. Period. Full stop. Fuck off.

I’m not going to get into it because it’s not worth it. I’ll let the show speak for itself. Enjoy and good luck if you’re on a Mac (fuck you Microsoft! although i do love the 360) as you will probably have trouble viewing the video…

Road To Inverock - Weather

As I sit here writing this it is pissing down like a motherfucker…

Inverock has officially become an annual event with this year being the third installment of ‘Rock at the Loch’ and we have been pretty fortunate and blessed with some pretty good weather.

It’s been nice and sunny during the day and cool at night which to me is a pretty good combo. I can’t remember the exact temperatures that we get down there but a good guide I use is to see how red Jax’s legs end up. The redder they get the better the weather.

Road To Inverock - Golf

It is always our best intention to play as much golf as possible while celebrating Inverock.

Now don’t get me wrong there is always at least one round of Par 3 golf completed but due to severe hangovers and heat exhaustion games are aborted and the skill level is normally a minimum.

The Inverloch Par 3 course (home of the Inverock Invitational) is a brilliant course to play. It’s small (Par 3 only) looks the goods and is still pretty challenging with a couple of holes hitting over water where if you are blessed a ‘Jesus Ball’ may just save your game. The only complaint is if it’s hot there are a fuckload of flies which don’t help the concentration.
