Will one day conquer my Steam backlog.
Time to start my rewatch of the Fallout series first season. Got 6 days until season 2 so I should be able to get it done without having to rush.

I forgot World of Tanks Console had the T249 on sale for Black Friday. Deleted in seconds by this player who travelled across the map just to kill me & then die having done little else in the battle. Guess I'll have to put my light tanks back in their box for a while again 🙄

That's my rewatch of the 2000's Battlestar Galactica TV series finally completed. Just as good as I remember it and I loved experiencing it all over again. Now I'll be moving onto a more recent series that has a second season due out very soon.

I'm doing better with my 4k film/tv backlog than I am with my game one. Just recently finished Full Metal Jacket & tonight Apocalypse Now Final Cut, and wow, the transfers on them are incredible! For films that are 30+ years old they look as though they could have been filmed in the 2000's.

I've not played much of Dawn of War 3 yet, but even from the tutorials and first 3 missions I can see the moba influence on this RTS game. The graphics are okay, but the art style & animations are definitely a step away from the past games grit & brutality.

Well, the plan was to make a start on Kingdom Come Deliverance and tick off a game on my backlog. But then I got a notification that the much disliked third entry to the Dawn of War franchise was on sale for a cheap price and I couldn't resist.

About to watch a film where Batman and General Zod are working together in space.

That's my replay of Dawn of War Retribution as the Blood Ravens completed, wrapping up the story that began with the first game. So now I'm ready for the new game when it releases. I've not played the third game, but I've heard it's not worth it, so I'll only pick it up and play on the cheap.

That's it, work is finished for the day. Now it's time to sit down and watch Green Room whilst eating chocolate cheesecake 😋

Yeah thanks, tis but a scratch! Just weirded me out as I've met loads of dogs in my lifetime, friends, family and strangers, both in and out of their homes and never been bitten before. But this one just went for me passing by ☹️

Had a chance to earn my most impressive Kolobanov medal yet in a 1v6. Unfortunately when it came down to the last 2 enemy players, I second guessed myself about capping their base by which time their last remaining player jumped on my base & capped it before I could get back.

Ghost shells have been a part of World of Tanks Console for a long time now, so you kind of just have to accept them. But when that ghost shell should have killed an enemy tank that then goes on to win the game, you can't help but feel mad🤬

I fancy watching a nice long movie whilst eating some Ferrero Rocher, so I'm going to watch the extended cut of Peter Jackson's King Kong for the first time.

That now the alternative ending done on my replay of Dawn of War 2 Chaos Rising. Took no time at all despite being on the same difficulty. Playing as the bad guys felt much easier as you have access to some powerful dark abilities.
November 5, 2025 at 12:06 AM
That's my replay of the Dawn of War 2 expansion Chaos Rising completed. I love how the story for the expansion goes deep into the lore of the Blood Ravens that you never really got in the preceding games. Now I'm going to play it again, but this time taking a darker path 👹

I was tempted to watch another horror film tonight, but instead I decided to watch something a bit more optimistic.

I'm glad that in the new Gauntlet mode on BF6 you can be moved to fill another squad if you scored high even though your team was eliminated. My squad for some reason decided they just wanted to mess about shocking each other with defibs rather than play the game.

Tonight's movie watch for Halloween. I still can't understand why they put the age stickers on some steelbooks but not others.
October 31, 2025 at 9:29 PM
Happy Halloween! No dressing up this year, but here is a photo of me from a past party.
October 31, 2025 at 5:56 PM
Tonight's movie watch is Jurassic World Rebirth 🦕 🦖 Glad to be able to watch this again as I really enjoyed it at the cinema. Sadly the Steelbook arrived with a couple of small dents ☹️
October 25, 2025 at 9:02 PM
Tonight's watch, 28 Years Later. Seems to have quite the mixed reception amongst audiences on the Internet, and I can certainly understand some of the criticism, but I still enjoyed it and look forward to more entries in the franchise.

That's the campaign done on my replay of Dawn of War 2. This one is definitely as difficult as I remember, so I'm glad I never attempted it on the highest level. I was going to take a few screenshots of the final battle, but I was too engrossed. Onto the expansion Chaos Rising next.
October 18, 2025 at 1:26 PM
I guess DICE must already be in the Halloween spirit as we have headless soldiers running about in Battlefield already! 🎃 💀
October 12, 2025 at 9:14 PM
I've somehow caught a cold despite only leaving the flat once this week, and it's no given me a headache to go along with it. So enough gaming for now. I'm gonna sit back and watch Tron Legacy instead and then go to bed early.
October 11, 2025 at 7:13 PM
Time to take a break from playing BF6 campaign. Gonna watch this film about games instead.
