Worms: Open Warfare 2 (DS)
Posted on March 30, 2008 | No CommentsDespite being somewhat disappointed with the horrifically buggy and, frankly, unfinished Open Warfare a year or two ago, the lure of mass invertebrate extermination on a handheld console was reaching fever pitch when I spotted that Open Warfare 2 was getting better reviews.

WE’Z IN UR ISP LOOKIN AT UR LOGZ
Posted on March 17, 2008 | No CommentsWell, at least BT are straight up about it. They replied saying “we don’t know anything yet, but when we do we’ll let you know.” Which is better than my mate RedSmartie got. He mailed Virgin pretty much the standard letter I put in my...
