Vince crushed this one.

Shame Dizzee went pop in the end.

Mr Fantastik, who does the first verse and the hook on this song is one of rap's biggest mysteries. A talented rapper whose only appearances are on MF DOOM's Rap Snitches and Knishes and King Geedorah's Anti-Matter, which also features MF DOOM. No one knows his identity. Some believe he is the alter ego of a rapper named Rodan who has also collaborated with DOOM although this is far from universally accepted, others believe he's just someone DOOM knew and wrote for because he had a great voice although others point that his technical ability belies that. Odds are we'll never know. Just thought I'd share because it's a fun little tidbit about the song.

Picked up DICE's Star Wars Battlefront for a couple of quid. It's not the deepest game ever but it's good fun. The sound and visuals are absolutely amazing it really does feel like you're in the middle of a battle from the movies. Hopefully the'll be able to build upon it and make a truly great game when Battlefront II launches in November.

It's here

I don't play but at school my friend's dad was part of a syndicate that won a few million. He got about £250,000 from it.

Yep the sniper mechanics are great and it's still as satisfying as to pop a man's testicles from 200 yards away as it was 5 years ago. I do think the level design is quite poor, particularly the spawning of enemies which often negates any traps you've laid and feels really unnatural. Levels are too linear for my liking too (I was disappointed at the lack of verticality in a lot of missions, I wanted to find my own vantage points and pick enemies off from up high rather than fight them in the streets) and there often aren't many ways to go about achieving an objective. Have they improved upon these in 3 and 4?

Friday's gonna be so good with both Kendrick and Joey dropping albums, I can't wait!

Reinstalled Sniper Elite V2 after seeing you guys discussing the new one. It's good fun although it is showing it's age but the core mechanics are still pretty good. Might pick up no. 4 soon.

Dany's off to Dragonstone by the looks of it. But yeah it wasn't the most informative teaser, guess it lived up to the name.

If this were a regular season it would be airing in a couple of weeks

New Kendrick Lamar

The remake of Stephen King's It is coming. Quite a fan of the original even though it scared me shitless as a kid so I'll have to see how this stacks up.

You don't have a mental image of me?

I warned everyone about dangerous players going under the radar

One day of sun and I've already got my summer playlist on Spotify on the go

Kendrick Lamar's been teasing his fourth album on Instagram. It's got me very excited, I wonder if he'll follow in the same vein as To Pimp a Butterfly with the jazz fusion or if he'll change things up again.

Season 7 has just been announced for the 16th of July. There's a little teaser with the announcement too:

It has me wanting to play the original again and I only did a second playthrough a couple of months ago
