Badgers Are Fun: September 2010
http://badgersarefun.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 13, 2010. Being Fleet Commander in EVE Online has become, for me, what the game is all about. It's a very grand title: Fleet Commander! I am Fleet Commander! I am Great Leader! Well no, you're just a guy who plays a game and talks more than the rest of the players. From the outside looking in it must sound very pompous and self-important, something that the geeks have made up to make themselves feel less sad. Well fuck that opinion. Internet spaceships are serious business. Seeing names...

Badgers Are Fun: June 2010
http://badgersarefun.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 11, 2010. The Battle of Vaajiata. The second way involves being dispassionate, analytical. This method is less attractive to the average reader, but for the hardcore EVE player, one more au fait with the technicalities of a PvP encounter, it can be a real learning experience. So how to tell the tale of the Battle of Vaajiata. Looking at the cold hard (alltime) stats. The following demands then appeared in local chat:. 200910.16 01:30:17 ] Dozofprom rps WILL DIE. To which I answered:. Mere mi...

Badgers Are Fun: December 2011
http://badgersarefun.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 01, 2011. I'm thoroughly entranced by RAGE right now. It's undeniably an id game, but it has a modern day, wide-open feel. It's a glass cage, corridors wrapped in tantalising scenery that's begging to be explored. It's all so near and yet, so horribly far away. Why hadn't they progressed in their design and structure, to go along with their technical prowess? Or a "Here's what you've missed.". It's really quite refreshing. Game, rather than a great.

Badgers Are Fun: May 2010

Tuesday, May 18, 2010. It must be summer because. I just found a spider the size of a golfball in my bathtub. Now I know it's not hurting anyone, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't die. It was him or me, yer honour. Posted by M Piquet. Sunday, May 09, 2010. I am one of the 30 million UK residents who didn't vote. Admittedly, that number comes from here. He's a fucking moron. Or, maybe, let's not. Posted by M Piquet. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Games That Are Not EVE. Rock, Paper, Shotgun.

Badgers Are Fun: In space, no-one can hear you being a c**t
http://badgersarefun.blogspot.com/2011/06/in-space-no-one-can-hear-you-being-ct.html
Wednesday, June 15, 2011. In space, no-one can hear you being a c* t. Having completed the first two Mass Effect games, I can admit to being satisfied with the story so far. It's all a tad serious - there can never be enough camp in space operas - but well intentioned and I look forward to seeing the series close out next year. In space, no one can hear you being a cunt, and no one really cares. Posted by M Piquet. Labels: Games That Are Not EVE. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Games That Are Not EVE.

Badgers Are Fun: February 2013
http://badgersarefun.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 26, 2013. I fought in a war. I don't want to shoot at people anymore. There's a series of Rock, Paper, Shotgun articles I enjoy - Gaming Made Me. I've been a soldier in eras past, present and future; secret agent, space marine and scientist super hero; mercenary, policeman, criminal; Duke fuckin Nukem and a succession of immortals in arenas. Is it possible that I've played hundreds of shooter protagonists? And I just don't want too anymore. Fuck that, man. I want to talk to the mons...

Badgers Are Fun: October 2010
http://badgersarefun.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 01, 2010. Small gang PvP in EVE] wasn't relevant the moment a trapped 20-man gang was jumped out of a dead end system by their pet titan.". So says Jim Rossignol. Not long before I started playing, but that figure was dwarfed by the 60, 453 in June 2010. Similarly, within that melting pot of ever increasing player groups has come a concommitant increase in the size of what we call "the small gang". When I were a lad, and StateCorp. That are notorious for baiting with what, these days, is ...

Badgers Are Fun: April 2011
http://badgersarefun.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 04, 2011. I've had an itch to play Final Fantasy VII again for a while, especially after reading the Final Fantasy letters series of articles. I've still got my original CDs (ooh, CDs! How quaint) and the game is sitting there, all installed and shit, waiting for me to play it, but it can't find a "Windows 95 compliant MIDI device". I have no idea how to fix this, and neither does the internet: the only solution seems to be to buy a soundcard. Buy a soundcard? Posted by M Piquet.

Badgers Are Fun: April 2013
http://badgersarefun.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 03, 2013. So I decided to replay the Mass Effect trilogy. This is not, in and of itself, a major announcement. Games are meant to be replayed, afrer all, and each game in the series has an ingame achievement for playing through at least twice. This time I want to go through all three games with some form of critical eye. The story of Jock Shepard is done, for better or worse, so this time it's Jessica Shepard's turn. Posted by M Piquet.
