Darryn Bonthuys - April 23rd, 2012 | Another week, another five days of work and earning that paycheck, so that I can buy more material possessions which do make me quite happy indeed. Geoff and Gavin are disappearing on Friday however, for some important “Freedom” related task they say, which is why they have to lock me up in the server room to monitor the machinery inside there. Oh well, it’s not as if there is some massive public ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - April 20th, 2012 | Weekend! We’ve all been working for it, looking for a new romance, and evidently, I’ve been delving into my collection of cheesy 80s albums again. And while everyone has been watching to see what we do, I’m going to sit back, relax, and watch some awesome Hong Kong action cinema. Because my DVD of Ballistic Kiss finally arrived. Hooray for bad dubbing and wire fu action! In Other News: Farcry 3 goes final with finished pictures, Atlus wears ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - April 19th, 2012 | With Thursday having been sufficiently beaten back, warned and told to go away, we can all look forward to the weekend. I’ve got plans set for my weekend, that revolve around watching an animated pirates film and swearing like a sailor at my TV every time I fail to clear a jump in Trials Evolution.
Dammit Nick, I will beat your high scores eventually, even if it takes me a lifetime.
While I carry out my solemn motorcycling vow, take a peek at our LW Mag sponsored ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - April 18th, 2012 | With hump day conquered, slapped and made fun, it’s time to start looking forward to the weekend. Right now, most of you with some cash to spare will either be getting ready for Prototype 2 soon, investing in extra controllers for Trials Evolution or have picked up The Witcher 2 already.
I’m busy experiencing the majesty of said witchering game right now actually, and I'm enjoying it so much, that I’ve even put my usual rounds ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - April 17th, 2012 | Anyone who has met me, happens to know how my alcohol tolerance level happens to be non-existent. So I generally shy away from the stuff completely, and go completely straight-edge, most of the time. But recently, I’ve kinda taken a shine to Whiskey. Half a shot glass will still last me at least an hour, and mixing it with other drinks has proven to be quite delicious. My favourite so far though, ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - April 16th, 2012 | Well I had a bit of a shock today. Or rather, a lack of one. The bloody power decided to flatline, leaving me to figure out a way to write articles, with a spare 3G modem and a laptop, that was hooked up to a car battery.
But hey, it worked, and deadlines were met! Nothing like a little bit of panic in order to to help get some work done, am I right? In Other ... [»] |

| In Other News – 13 April Homegrown Hottie Weekend Edition | 
Darryn Bonthuys - April 13th, 2012 | This has got to be the longest short week that I have ever sat through, as if I was caught in some sort of ridiculous time-loop. While I figure out that quantum conundrum, take a look at our LW Mag sponsored Homegrown Hottie, Ashton Leigh Blake. She’s a Jozi native with a passion for dubstep and metal music, and happens to dig Hannibal Lector. Yowzers! Read more about her here. In ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - April 12th, 2012 | In case you didn’t notice, tomorrow happens to be Friday the 13th. And due to my criminal background, I happen to be a cowardly and superstitious person, so I’ve taken numerous preventative measures in order to ensure that I have maximum luck when working tomorrow. I’ve got a necklace of freshly hacked off rabbits feet around my neck, I’ve destroyed all ladders around me, and I’ve captured a leprechaun. And I’m ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - April 11th, 2012 | Man, what a glorious day it’s been. The sun is still shining, the world is still spinning, and most importantly, my fingers aren’t frigid bits of flesh on bone, meaning that I can type a helluva lot easier.
Personally, I plan to savour this weather, and go for a leisurely stroll. As much as I love my gaming, days like this, so close to winter, I do not skip out on. How about you guys, do ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - April 10th, 2012 | I don’t know about you guys, but this Easter weekend has left me perilously stuffed. My pants have suffered accordingly, resulting in me naming them all “Dom”, so that I have something dramatic to shout out whenever they break.
How about you guys, did you have a great and productive Easter Weekend break? In Other News: We pay our respects to a pioneer in gaming consoles, Stephen Fry thinks that Electronic Arts are still awesome and we ... [»] |

| In Other News – 05 April 2012 Homegrown Hottie Long Weekend Edition | 
Darryn Bonthuys - April 5th, 2012 | I’m pretty much glued to my iPad right now, engaging in some addictive combat in Kingdom Rush, much to Geoff’s amusement as he watches me struggle to defeat yet another wave of golems, so while I ogle my screen of strategy, you can ogle our Homegrown Hottie, Candice Otto, from LW Mag. Candice is a Jozi girl from the racing section of the city, has a thing for chivalrous guys, good old fashioned rock ‘n roll music, and decent films such as Aladdin and 300. I honestly think I’m in love. Read more about her here. In Other ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - April 4th, 2012 | Once again, Geoff has convinced me to try something else, a different kind of game than the usual run and gun action that I have been engaging in as of late. I’ve just recharged my iTunes account with some much needed moolah, and for once, I’m not spending it on Britney Spears AC/DC albums. Instead, I’m going to be giving Kingdom Rush a bash, to see what exactly Geoff has been frothing at the mouth about lately. So if I ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - April 3rd, 2012 | What a beautiful day it’s been. Not a cloud in the sky, a beautiful blue sky, and a beam of warm sunlight on the floor that my cat has taken advantage off. It’s days like this that I just adore, as they’re the last vestiges of that wonderful summer weather, before winter comes knocking on my door, with it’s pointy-nipple inducing climate. And despite my best attempts to hurry up global warming, this year looks set for another frigid couple of months, as the mornings get darker and colder. Damn ... [»] |

Darryn Bonthuys - March 30th, 2012 | Man oh man, where has this month gone? It seems like only a short while ago that we were anxiously awaiting the big releases of the month, followed by some apparent teeth-gnashing and wailing, but lets not open that can of worms yet again. There’s a bunch of games coming out next month that I’m hyped up for, such as Prototype 2 and The Witcher 2. April shall rock most hard indeed. In ... [»] |
