June 28th, 2008 A quick heads up: some promotional Microsoft Points have expiration dates. This is probably not new, but it is news to me! From the billing FAQ: When do my Microsoft Points expire? Purchased points don’t expire. Any points you get through promotions can have expiration dates. Typically, points expire within thirty days of the date [...] June 21st, 2008 Or: A Post On My Decent Further Into Geekdom A catalogue from Forbidden Planet dropped through the door the other day and amongst the myriad of Star Wars memorabilia, Doctor Who tchochkes and slightly disturbing animé statuettes were the new Gears of War action figures designed by Neca. They stood out from the rest [...] October 28th, 2007 Christmas is coming, marked by the end of the summer games drought and the release of countless Xbox 360 games all vying to be under Timmy’s Christmas tree on Christmas Day.
