Gamer dads

So I haven't blogged in a while.

What else is new?

Things have been hectic (again) for the last few weeks with regards to both my work and personal life.

I went for a holiday in Cape Town beginning February. We held a funeral for one of my wife's aunts last week. Also, I improved my cycling record on my 35km cycle to the office.

Those were the memorable things that have happened during the past few weeks. It was all the hectic stuff in between that made blogging nearly impossible.

Back on topic though.  read more »

GOG.com Update: Month of Activision!

I knew it!

I blogged earlier this week about the mysterious countdown clock at Good Old Games. The time has now passed (by about 30 minutes) and they have revealed their big announcement.

I was right! They have signed with one of the big publishers, but none of the one's I have guessed.

Instead, GOG.com has signed with Activision!  read more »

Nostalgia - that glorious feeling

Roger Wilco So far it looks like my new years resolution has been to 'blog less'. I can guarantee you that this is not the case.

The year just started off a bit strangely for myself and my wife. We moved house to Brakpan... not a bad decision, but definitely a financial one. We are saving a lot of money per month which means we will be able to put more money away for the more important things in life. Things like a deposit for a house, a deposit for a car. A new powerful gaming PC... you know, the basics.  read more »

Do you cheat in games?

I've been thinking about this topic for a few days now. Yes, I've been lazy and haven't really had anything to write about (can I claim bloggers block?) but in my defense, my mind has been reminiscing about and rehashing the topic for a while now.  read more »

Should I keep blogging in English?

There are a few questions that have been spinning around in my head for a while now.

Does blogging in English improve the quality of my blog? Does it improve the quality of my English?

I'm an Afrikaans speaking South African. Afrikaans is my home language and I speak it every day.  read more »

Cycling again?

The week has scarcely begun and I am swamped. I am preparing the last hardware in a 3-month hardware deployment project this week. I am getting to grips with Wordpress theming at home. And last but not least, my brother-in-law has signed me up for the 50km MTN OFM Mountain Bike Race in Bloemfontein this weekend.

Guess who has not been playing much games this week?  read more »
