Tom Francis: IN SPAAAAAAAAAAAAACEEEEEEE!

I know, I haven’t written a lot in here lately. I really should, and I really will. I do have the really bad habit of not finding the effort to start something for ages, even if I know when it comes to it I’ll be able to do a lot. It’s just starting it that’s the problem.

Anyway, in the meantime, I’m going to do the decent thing and link to something that you probably already knew about if you’re reading this blog, as I assume most of my hits are probably from people clicking from the comments of other journo’s blogs, whom I read and comment upon frequently. But just in case I’ll point you to the fact that Mr Tom Francis has just finished his her-uge Galactic Civilisations 2 War Report over on the PCGamer website. Spanning around six weeks, and around 25 hours worth of playing the game, the blog details some awesome space battles, and some pretty funny moments, especially around the day 15 mark. Heck, I’m not a fan of the genre but it’s an awesome account of what I’m sure is a superb game, and it’s done wonders for the sales of the game already. So really, you shouldn’t have an excuse to at least check it out for yourself.

As for stuff I’m doing, well I’ve finished my first year of Uni now, I’m just trying to find ways of keeping my income up over the summer, the job search is not going as well as I had hoped so I’m working on a few articles I hope to submit to various places to see if I can at least make a little money from sitting at my keyboard all day. Things in the pipeline? Well, hopefully I’m going to start working on an article about games I wish were on the PC, then I intend to blog something something about conversions and maybe a little something on game engines. We shall see. Any other suggestions would be welcome.
