That’s right… I’ve finally decided what I wanted to get. It was a tough choice to make since the Playstation 3 is very powerful but I’ve always been a fan of the Microsoft Xbox.

I’ve been playing GTA 4 and it’s great. I love the graphics and this game is so fun. This game can also be played online so I think I’ll try that sometime. Xbox Live Silver is free but from what I’ve seen so far, there’s not really anything that can be done with it apart from going on Live Messenger and updating the Xbox itself.

Hopefully I’ll be able to keep you all up to date with Xbox news now but first it’s time to get some more games.

I’ve been trying to buy Mario Kart Wii for over a month now, how does a game simply go out of stock? I mean, it can’t be that hard to burn off some more copies of this game.

I’ve tried Game, Play.com and most other high street retailers, yet all seem to be sold out! By the time the game is back in stock it’ll just be another game… I won’t even be interested in playing it since there will be another game I’ll want.

I think Nintendo are just trying to get us all to want the game even more, but with a stupid idea like that, all those that already have the game will have got bored of it and it will leave us that don’t have the game, looking for others in the same boat to play the game with online…

There’s my little rant sort of thing, now Nintendo, get your head out of your asses and get more games sent out to the shops!

I’ve really got back into computers… I’ve been really busy lately with getting my own flat and sorting things out for it, but now I’ve got back into computers and have been doing the odd PC repairs for anyone that has had problems with their PCs. I haven’t came across a PC that I haven’t been able to fix as of yet.

Now that I’m back into computers I’m going to build myself a new PC. This is going to be one of the best and possibly most expensive PC I’ve built in a long time… I’m hoping to have at least a Quad Core CPU and 4GB of RAM. I’ve looked at Intels Quad Core CPUs as well as AMDs Phenom. I’m a big fan of AMD as some of you may know but this PC has to be really fast… so I’ll be reading up on both Intel and AMDs Quad Core on various websites and magazines.

If anyone has suggestions, please leave me a comment.

Good question! Well at first I was letting Rahxie.co.uk just expire as I had no use for it… Since my registrar decided to re-register it by themselves using my credit card, I ended up keeping it and since I had no use for it, I was redirecting it to here for the time being.

I now have a use for it and it will now be pointing at my home network, this is really just so that I’m able to test things out, publish random things locally and it makes it all a lot faster for me. In fact, even you will be able to use it… Only a few things will be hidden from public view but you’ll be able to see my bandwidth usage, home server uptimes and much more.

There will be a link on the Rahxie.co.uk site that will redirect here but for those that were visiting this blog using that URL then please start using the real URL which is jslane.net.

I’ll be keeping this blog more up to date from now on hopefully. I’ve had a heck of a week and haven’t been around that much.
