I'd previously seen two Godzilla films...
The first being Final Wars, something I've always described to people as the Resident Evil 6 of movies. It might be the film that made me stop making Michael Bay jokes, because it makes The Rock look like a documentary by comparison, as easily one of the most exhausting films I've ever seen.

Do you think we're going to see Microsoft go the Sega route and pull out of the hardware market to become a publisher for the foreseeable future?

Being sick's never fun… but it is a good excuse to binge video-games.
Looking back at the video-game I picked to binge while recovering from a chest infection though, I can't rule out the possibility of the game's difficulty extending my illness even further, and yet, I don't regret it…

Having fired myself from a cannon into the sea of late 90s/00s music, both the good and the bad, I figured I'd resurface with an album that isn't one of the ones I've been listening too since playing Test Drive 6 on the Playstation.
