I am currently watching this week's episode of The Gadget Show on youtube as I missed it on Monday as I was out swimming. This week Suzi and Jason were challenged to make their own computer game. They showed some office people playing some internet games and I went and checked a few out... and they are very addictive!
My favourite is Ragdoll Cannon 3- http://www.kongregate.com/games/Johnny_K/ragdoll-cannon-3?acomplete=ragdoll just because the graphics are quite cute and sketchy and the game is generally just a little bit addictive, like all good internet games. I advise you not to click the link if you are doing anything important as you may get sucked right into the game!
After I finish writing this I am going to go on the Gadget Show Website to check out the games that Suzi and Jason made as I am curious as to how good they are.
This made me think about a blog I read a few weeks ago, which was written by Jessica Fox (http://blameitonthegroupon.blogspot.com/), who plays Nancy in Hollyoaks. Her blogs are mainly about her fitness regime she has started and all the funny stuff that happens at her Zumba classes and whatever but there was one part of a recent blog she wrote where she mentioned Burger Shop 2. She's right... it is so addictive! I sat there playing it for ages and every downloaded the hour free trial just so I could see what the real game is like (I'm not going to pay to buy something) and it has now been put in my 'stuff' folder on my bookmark bar on my firefox so I can play it if I am really bored!
I know Sims isn't on the internet but it is still addictive because there is so much stuff you can do on it so I am constantly finding different ways to do stuff (e.g. I never knew you could electrocute Sims until last week). I'm usually not one for killing Sims because I get strangely attached to them and all the things I have made them achieve so I usually set it on the longest lifespan and just trigger age transition as and when I want and try to keep them alive for as long as possible and just keep moving out Sims when I want to extend my family. The Sim town does end up being littered with my Sim family though. However, I have set my life span back to the normal 90 days and it is quite good just naturally letting them age and also it stops me getting bored of having the same Sims around all the time. I think I prefer and shall do it like that from now on!
On the subject of Sims, there was a facebook group about a 'Super Secret Surprise' in the Sims 3 that was dated to be yesterday and I checked it yesterday to see what it was and it's Sims 3 Generations which sounds really good! For those of you non-simmers or those of you haven't seen it yet, who have no idea what I am talking about - it looks awesome, check the trailer out on youtube!
