Ok, so I have decided to give this "blogging" thingy a go. If it's terrible then I do apologize, but bare with me (I am a noob).
First off thank-you for reading and I hope that I can find something in my life to talk about that interests you. Starting with noise people who live near me.... why o why do people insist on having party's in the communal garden(which is right outside my window) when ever the sun shows its ugly head? I mean come on, other people live here to and If I wanted to listen to your genre of music then I would go to a club like a normal person.
And it is not like its new music, today has been a mix of 80's and 90's cheese house music. The volume is so loud I can not even hear my TV on max (sadface) not that there is anything good on but still it beats sitting here in silence with the vibrations of base slowly rotting my brain.
END RANT
So onto a topic that a few of you will be interested in... Conspiracy's. That's right the all seeing eye is 100% focused on us mere mortals once again as the clock ticks down to 21.12.2012. Now I am not going to rant about this as I do not want to come across as a mad man but I do believe that the world we live in is a lie and always has been. you only need to look at artifacts that have been found and have not been widely reported i.e Bagdad battery, Egyptian Computer (made of solid gold by the way) our ancestors had much more technological advancement than we give them credit for. So why could they not have a way to predict the next ice-age or whatever? you can dismiss it as rumor mills, garbage or just theory's of paranoid scientists with a god complex but ask yourself this.... what if it is not garbage? what would you do? what can you do? Answer... nothing but prepare the best you can. Wow, I was not going to write about this but I live such a mundane life that I do not have much to talk about and conspiracy's have always fascinated me so there you are I have shared lol. If you have any conspiracy's that you love feel free to get in touch and I shall mention it and you next time.
Gaming... This year has been a great year for the industry as we watch it go from strength to strength. One thing that does worry me however is the 'online passes' trend. I understand that trade-in takes money away from developers and this is a way to stop trade-ins (as well as downloaded games)But since I was a kid, the only way I have been able to afford every game I have wanted is to trade the ones I don't. Its a sad day for small interdependent games shops, that's for sure but a great day for developers pockets, so i am torn on the subject.
(And the music gets louder and louder -.-)
I would love for developers to put some of this money back into its customers by starting a work program to help people break into the industry. Blackrock studios in Brighton do this already in partnership with Brighton uni but you must have qualifications to sign up. I do not have said qualifications so this is no good to me but if you think about it, in the U.K we have a major unemployment problem. Most of the 17-30 year olds unemployed play online gaming in some form or another and if they are like me it has become their world and they dream of getting paid to work with the industry and lets face it... who knows games and what the consumer wants and need more than these people. A great resource that has been over looked and I would love a developer to take advantage of this and help un-skilled and unemployed people find their feet and calling in life.
If you are still reading this then well done and I commend your dedication. Any thoughts on my own? then get in touch but please don't hate on the conspiracy's I only added it as the inspiration well had run dry
cheers, Quincey
