Neill Blomkamp is a South African film director who was originally penciled by Peter Jackson (director/producer of The Lord of the Rings films) to direct the Halo movie.  The Halo film has been suspended “indefinitly” due to high cost of production and Peter Jackson’s choice of Neill as director.

Well, I’ve been a fan of Neill Blomkamp’s short films (don’t forget he also did the Halo 3 live-action promotion) and one that particularly stood out was Alive in Joburg  a concept about aliens living in South African slums.  Well, you can imagine how excited I was to learn that Peter Jackson is turning  Alive in Joburg into a full blown film!  Perhaps the Halo movie might see the light of day after all…

So another weekend gone. Didn’t get up to much, went out Friday with the work guys and had a few drinks.
Weekend was spent trying to get more of the backend stuff sorted out here.

On the gaming front, well this week The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena is out. It has had good reviews, but i have to be honest i am not going to be picking it up. I tried the demo and i just didn’t see enough of an improvement over the old game to make me want to buy it.

I know i should not judge the game on a 10min demo, but that’s Dark Witness for you. If i don’t feel that magic in the first 10 sec chances are i am not going to feel it at all. I am a bit of a graphics whore and that is one area that has to grab my attention which sadly this game didn’t.

AS far as games go, summer time is not the best. I suppose you could liken it to being dragged through the Sahara with enough water to soak a toothbrush. Traditionally that’s how its always been…. until this year. Over the next 3 – 4 months there are going to be some really nice games coming out so i will be giving you the low down on which games i am getting and why.

Unfortunately i don’t get paid for this yet and i don’t get sent the games for free so i won’t be able to review all of them. I will just be buying the games i think are really, really, really worth my £40.

May is just round the corner and my recommended game to get is Bionic Commando.
1. It’s made by capcom who brought us games like; Dead Rising, Lost Planet, RES4 and so far i think they have delivered on their Next gen outings.
2. The game looks quite cool, maybe a bit of an extension to the grapple hook mechanic we saw in lost planet’s gameplay ( if you didn’t like lost planet i am not to sure you will like this game )

Check out some of the videos below and see what you think.
