So, to celebrate the fact that I have finally started watching Battlestar Galactica, I’ve opted to track down the show's Tricia Helfer and use her for the header image. Everyone’s been going off in my ear about the series forever so it’s time I finally watched it. I’ve only caught the first hour or so of the mini-series so far, but it’s as gripping as all hell.

Weekend is here folks! Time to burn your corporate neck-nooses and let loose, spend time with family and unwind. There’s rugby on this weekend, so avoid wearing anything yellow in case we lose that match. If you’re staying indoors, we hope you have a great morning and enjoy swearing at the television whenever the ref seems unfair.
As for right now, you’ve no doubt got your eyes firmly plastered on the gorgeous Zanelle Breedt, our homegrown hottie for the weekend. This party girl loves to have a good time and pina colodas ... [»]
It was rather a sad start to the day when we got word that Apple co-founder Steve Jobs had passed on yesterday. Love or hate the Apple brand, one cannot deny the impact that its had on our lives, from the compact iMac PC, all the way through to the iPod, iPhone and iPad devices. Its devices such as that, that have catapulted gaming into a more casual sector, that made ... [»]
You may have noticed that I’ve been doing quite the few ION posts lately. An even though there may have been a few misses, and one incident involving my drunken rage and a picture of Susan Boyle, its been pretty fun so far.
But all these bikinis are starting to become a bit tiresome, and in an effort to save myself from becoming bored with what could be the greatest fashion statement since Ursula Andress ... [»]
Stupid weather ruining a perfectly awesome beginning of Summer day. If there’s any consolation to Mother Nature deciding to act like an overbearing parent, its that I’ve been cooped up inside, collating entries for the FIFA 12 contest, while everyone else at the beach is being pelted with sea-sand shrapnel. But the crap thing is, is that the weather will eventually return to awesome, meaning that I’m going to be missing ... [»]
Well, Geoff is on vacation this week, and its been considerably quiet today. There’s been far less threats of physical violence and missing bottles of booze, but even so, we still miss the guy bunches. He’s off on some well deserved vacation, while we can only hope to keep the fort running efficiently while he’s out. I mean, we don’t how he does it, but the trained man-eating cows we have in the server room will only listen to his commands, ... [»]
As you may have noticed, we moved to a new server this week. It wasn’t, as many of you noticed, exactly the smoothest migration - but things should largely be fixed, and running like magic, and there should be very little (hopefully none) the downtime we’ve been experiencing of late, and as a bonus, a bit of a speed boost as we’ve been tightening the code and plugging the holes. ...

Man, I am jealous of you Jozi and Pretoria residents. Tomorrow, the local highlight of the year, rAge, is happening, and you’ll all be hustling to get to the Dome, so that you can mingle with some of your fellow gamers, like a big heaving sea of sweaty gaming fanatic man-meat. Actually, scratch that, I’ll chill on the couch, safe down here next to the ... [»]
I’ve got nothing. Generally I’ll write something that is hopefully humorous and will persuade you all to carry on reading, but today has just been relentless and tiring. In between all the usual death threats and thinly veiled insults directed at my terrible love life while in the office today, I’ve just run my witty banter tank completely dry. In ... [»]
I think the Lazygamer curse has finally caught up to me. We all know that Nick suffers from various ailments due to that mummies curse he picked up while in Egypt, Gavin has a regular battle with super-manflu, and Geoff has somehow managed to pump out stories while suffering from various sleep-deprived hallucinations. Me, I’ve been getting toothaches lately, but its ok, because I found a great way to numb the ... [»]
We’re sorry. Not like in a fake Tony Hayward way, but we’re genuinely sorry to those of you who are only reading this message now, after missing out on all the usual witty banter and latest news from the gaming industry today.
We’ve had a few problems today, and we’ve been hard at work to sort them out, but lately, death threats aren’t as effective as they usually are. Still, everything should be ... [»]
Its been a great week so far. We’ve been killing hordes of locust soldiers and talking dirty about their mommas behind their chainsawed backs, while the rest of the gaming world is one step closer to that tidal wave of awesomeness that will be hitting us soon.
We’re going to be flooded with games such as Skyrim,Uncharted 3, Forza 4 and Rage soon, before we begin blasting each other in our war-game of choice, whether it ... [»]
Last night was supposed to be perfect. Myself, Gavin, Geoff and our pals Flameboy and Muppet-Strangler (The less said, the better), were all prepared to take on and beat the Gears of War 3 horde mode. And we were blazing through those stages last night, giving the locust armies what for and a chainsaw to the face.
And then, disaster struck. After a particularly brutal wave of enemies in level 36, around three of us were ... [»]
So after around a decade of waiting I finally got to play my first half hour or so of the Diablo III beta today and man oh man, the giddy little fanboy in me is over the moon. You do have to wonder with betas these days though, as they seem to be less about actual beta testing and more about building hype. When you think about it, the ... [»]
So, it’s been another great day of news and features, meaning that…Oh who am I kidding, you guys probably aren’t even reading this, are you? You’re no doubt racing back home right now to play Gears of War 3, while the rest of us have been working hard to keep you entertained. But that’s fine, because it means that I won’t have to write anything snappy today, which means that I can ... [»]
