&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;I decided to get back into my &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Tumblr&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;, as it has been far too long. On here, you'll find plenty of great gaming finds (many I won't be featuring on 8-Bit Girl, apart from on &lt;i&gt;Feature Fridays&lt;/i&gt; when I decide to spread the love of some artists), so it's pretty exclusive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Also, my Tumblr page is home to plenty of non-gaming related posts, including films, music, art, photography, comics, funny finds and more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Please give me a follow to keep up to date! I'll also be sharing some selective gaming posts via my Twitter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Follow me here: &lt;a href="http://www.8-bitgirl.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://www.8-bitgirl.tumblr.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;I'll see you there!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Those of you who read my other blog, Pages and Panels will have already read this.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;As of last weekend, myself and my Fiance moved from a tiny boxroom of a flat to a large three bedroom house. Since then, we've been busily unpacking when we get home from our full time jobs, sorting out bills, buying and assembling furniture. It's been an incredibly busy few days!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Before the move, I spent the final week in the flat packing, sorting through our belongings and giving the flat a huge clean so we have some hope of getting our deposit back (trust me, our lettings agency is awful!).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;So, this is where I have been in the past two weeks. Things are way too busy, and I haven't had a chance to get on my laptop until now. We're hoping to get our house pretty much sorted by the end of the weekend, but I also have some freelancing work to catch up on. So...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;here's my haitus. I shall be back at some point next week! In the meantime, enter my giveaway (see the previous blog post). The more people entering, the merrier, and I'll be more inclined to do more giveaways in the future! :)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Thanks for being understanding, and I look forward to updating the blog soon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

I've got prizes to give away for a bunch of great companies,&amp;nbsp;musicians and artists!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;As there are quite a few prizes, I thought I would split up the giveaways into two or three stages.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;The first of which is an Artist giveaway.&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Eight &lt;/i&gt;lucky winners will be going home with a different artist's prize pack. Here is what you could win!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Winner 1&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Courtesy of artist &lt;a href="http://www.twinswordtrading.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Lewis Terry&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, one winner can walk away with his new &lt;b&gt;art book &lt;i&gt;Hidden Beauties&lt;/i&gt;, and a bunch of game themed art prints&lt;/b&gt;!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Hidden Beauties&lt;/i&gt; contains 15 nerdy pin-ups, mainly characters from games. It's a amusing, brilliantly drawn book!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;The book will be signed personally to the winner!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;As previously mentioned, I &amp;nbsp;shall be helping out on the &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.twinswordtrading.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank"&gt;Twin Sword Trading&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt; table, table E8 of the &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mcmcomiccon.com/london/attractions/comic-village/" target="_blank"&gt;Comic Village&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt; section.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Run by artist Lewis Terry (who so happens to be my&amp;nbsp;Fiancé), he'll be debuting his brand new art book, '&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Hidden Beauties&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;'.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Hidden Beauties&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; contains 15 fun digital impressionistic paintings of pin ups from nerd culture, and pretty much all of them are gaming related.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;You'll see female versions of iconic male gaming characters (&lt;b&gt;Mistress Chief&lt;/b&gt;, anyone?), and pin-up versions of some familiar gaming ladies (like &lt;b&gt;Samus&lt;/b&gt;, for example).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;We'll be selling this for £4, plus it comes bundled with a free print of your choice!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;However, if you cannot make it to the MCM this weekend, you can pick up the book from his online store.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.comicsy.co.uk/twinswordtrading/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;http://www.comicsy.co.uk/twinswordtrading/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Here's some examples!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;It's con time again! I shall be at the &lt;b&gt;London MCM Comic Con&lt;/b&gt; tomorrow and Sunday, manning the &lt;a href="http://www.twinswordtrading.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank"&gt;Twin Sword Trading&lt;/a&gt; table (E8 of Comic Village!), getting some game coverage for &lt;b&gt;8-Bit Girl&lt;/b&gt; and picking up some comics to review on &lt;a href="http://www.pagesandpanels.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank"&gt;Pages &amp;amp; Panels&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;So if you are planning to attend one (or both!) of those days, please feel free to come on down to the &lt;b&gt;Comic Village section and find me at table E8&lt;/b&gt;. It'll be an opportunity to meet me, and see what I'm helping to sell.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Thanks guys!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I'll be posting some excellent game music every Monday once again on 8-Bit Girl.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;To kick things off, I've decided upon '&lt;i&gt;Datadyne Central Infection&lt;/i&gt;', from &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Perfect Dark&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. Originally released on the &lt;b&gt;Nintendo 64&lt;/b&gt; in 2000,&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Perfect Dark &lt;/i&gt;got the HD treatment for the&lt;b&gt; Xbox 360&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;in&amp;nbsp;2010&lt;b&gt;.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;This track starts off slow, but gradually picks up the pace. In the game this is the perfect track for moments of quiet exploration followed immediately by an enemy encounter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Have a listen below.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;I'm planning a much bigger giveaway once we've moved, (come back at the beginning of June!) but in the meantime, I thought I'd host a little competition for these two items I re-discovered whilst packing:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Tomb Raider-Game Boy Colour&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Unboxed, this is the first Tomb Raider game to make it onto a handheld system!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D Keyring&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Given to me along with an Ocarina (sorry, I'm keeping that!) at an Ocarina of Time 3D release promotion when I was at the MCM Comic Con back in 2011. For some reason I have two of these, so I'm keeping one and giving away the other!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Two winners&lt;/i&gt; will win a prize each!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Y7eAXUFzZuw/UZK3kfV6vbI/AAAAAAAAB1U/42t9fjMARv8/s1600/full-house-poker.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Y7eAXUFzZuw/UZK3kfV6vbI/AAAAAAAAB1U/42t9fjMARv8/s400/full-house-poker.jpg" width="291" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;I was never a huge fan of card games, but the past few years changed that. As I learned to play the basics, I then moved on to try the longer, more complex games. During my Uni years, Poker was one of them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Now for someone who is living in an incredibly small flat (thankfully only for another two and a half weeks), it's pretty impossible to play board or card games, so I started sourcing out the same games online and on my &lt;b&gt;Xbox 360&lt;/b&gt; instead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;This is where I found &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Full House Poker&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. Essentially the same game, but with the added fun of seeing the Xbox Avatar version of you pulling it's best Poker face (believe me, my virtual counterparts is much better than my own).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8jWgt5AOIRA/UZK3xQZrjlI/AAAAAAAAB1c/rmlzxghJJog/s1600/screenlg2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="223" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8jWgt5AOIRA/UZK3xQZrjlI/AAAAAAAAB1c/rmlzxghJJog/s400/screenlg2.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;There can be plenty of rules for Poker, but thankfully &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Full House Poker&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; has a helpful text and video section to guide you along the way. Once you have made yourself aware of the rules, it's time to try the actual game.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Whilst the rules definitely help you to get to grips with the gameplay, it's not completely plain sailing. AI opponents can be rather ruthless, so the first few games may seem a little tricky. However, &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Full House Poker&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; rewards those for playing well, even when your chip stack is dwindling. However, unfortunately the AI players can often take the 'all or nothing' approach, taking huge risks that will more often than not see them fold before the end. Online play allows you to play against fellow real life players of varying difficulties if the AI becomes a little unbearable though. In general though, AI opponents can be fun, albeit a little challenging at times.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EUr34hkqvBA/UZK4EZO_MYI/AAAAAAAAB1k/MGTS4djS1k4/s1600/screenlg7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="223" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EUr34hkqvBA/UZK4EZO_MYI/AAAAAAAAB1k/MGTS4djS1k4/s400/screenlg7.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;For those still struggling to remember what types of hands will be to your advantage, luckily there is a handy tip. Press the left bumper to see a list of possible hands in order of their strength. Using this feature stops you from throwing in a hand at random, just because you are unsure of what to play next.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Whilst &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Full House Poker&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; is a great alternative to playing with actual playing cards and poker chips, it's only winning you virtual money. However, some of you enjoy &lt;a href="http://games.paddypower.com/numbers-games" target="_blank"&gt;playing numbers to win cash&lt;/a&gt;. For example, there are a &lt;a href="http://games.paddypower.com/all-games" target="_blank"&gt;great range of betting games from Paddypower&lt;/a&gt;, with a whole variety of Poker and other card games available to try out.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HD3vLNsLKZo/UZK4f97sNII/AAAAAAAAB1s/9elCsl0SMHg/s1600/screenlg3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="223" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HD3vLNsLKZo/UZK4f97sNII/AAAAAAAAB1s/9elCsl0SMHg/s400/screenlg3.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Overall, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Full House Poker&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt; is a lot of fun. Whilst it may seem a little harsh for the most part, this version of Poker does reward players from any skill-set, allowing even for the amateur players who are still learning the ropes. Seeing your avatar play Poker is also a lot more fun than playing as a random computer generated player. Through their expressions, these avatars bring a little more fun to the proceedings.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;So if you are looking for a fun card game on&lt;b&gt; Xbox Live Arcade&lt;/b&gt;, &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Full House Poker&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; is definitely recommended.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

We've been crazily saving for enough money to buy furniture and to pay for any of our belongings to be transported. However, every little extra helps.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;So this is why I've taken to eBay this weekend and am listing a whole host of gaming items from mine and my boyfriends collections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;As the moment I am selling shiny, rare, mint and near mint condition Pokemon and Yu Gi Oh cards, Dungeons &amp;amp; Dragons books, a rare Konami Contra LCD Handheld game, Majora's Mask gold cartridge with a manual.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;I will be selling more Nintendo 64 games with manuals once these auctions have ended in 7 days time, along with some other goodies I have acquired.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Here's my eBay store:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://my.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MyEbayBeta&amp;amp;CurrentPage=MyeBayNextAllSelling&amp;amp;ssPageName=STRK:ME:LNLK:MESX"&gt;http://my.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MyEbayBeta&amp;amp;CurrentPage=MyeBayNextAllSelling&amp;amp;ssPageName=STRK:ME:LNLK:MESX&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Currently listed. More in a week!:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Here's the three gaming related goodies I&amp;nbsp;received.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;

In those times when console or PC gaming are not available, online browser games can be a good alternative.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Plenty of people take to Facebook for social gaming, and forget that there are other sites out there that cater for this.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Step forward &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Playberry&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, a social gaming website that is dedicated to bringing a variety of online games to your browser. Playberry also allows for signing in and playing via Facebook if you are still looking for this type of play.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TEz_rlfkFkw/UYJQWhGaRyI/AAAAAAAABwc/67-psDVRwMg/s1600/Untitled.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="260" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TEz_rlfkFkw/UYJQWhGaRyI/AAAAAAAABwc/67-psDVRwMg/s400/Untitled.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Each game on &lt;i&gt;Playberry&lt;/i&gt; falls under a category, such as Action, Multiplayer, Driving, Puzzle, and Strategy amongst others, meaning that there are plenty of different games to choose from, depending on your genre preference.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Standout games include &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Angry Birds Online&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Candy Crush Saga&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, and &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Happy Wheels&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;

&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-f8hCnggE1Ho/UXVH-xV7evI/AAAAAAAABvk/_52nQwNxnq0/s1600/3550468846-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-f8hCnggE1Ho/UXVH-xV7evI/AAAAAAAABvk/_52nQwNxnq0/s400/3550468846-1.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Miracle of Sound &lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;is back once again with an album full of songs written about games, TV programmes and films.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Composed and written entirely by Gavin Dunne who releases under his band name, &lt;i&gt;Miracle of Sound&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;b&gt;Level 3&lt;/b&gt; features gaming tracks based on games such as &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Bioshock Infinite&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;,&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt; Borderlands 2&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Assassins Creed III&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;As with the previous two albums, Gav embraces and experiments with plenty of different genres to fit with the tone of the game, programme or film he is singing about. For instance, 'His Father's Son' resembles a sea shanty blended with Native American influences-exactly like the game itself.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Stand out tracks on the album include the newest release, Dream of the Sky, which is based on&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt; Bioshock Infinite&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;, Breaking Down The Borders (&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Borderlands 2&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;), The Savage Side of Me (&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;), The Best I Can (&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Telltale Games' The Walking Dead&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;), and His Fathers Son (&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Assassins Creed III&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;The non-gaming songs are just as great, with 'Halfman's Song', about Tyrion Lannister from &lt;b&gt;Game of Thrones&lt;/b&gt;, is one of the best tracks on the album.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;For me though, no &lt;i&gt;Miracle of Sound&lt;/i&gt; album is complete without a tongue in cheek ditty, and thankfully, &lt;i&gt;Level 3&lt;/i&gt; delivers on this too. 'Wigglesticks' is a brief track mocking &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Resident Evil 6&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;'s over-reliance on Quick Time Events (I enjoyed that game, but come on, it was a little too much at times!), 'The Call of Duty Circus' explains the typical type of &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Call of Duty&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; gamers you'll encounter whilst playing online, whilst 'Doorfighter' is based on the plethora of door opening sequences in &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Medal of Honour&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

Israeli artist &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://omrikoresh.deviantart.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Omri Koresh&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt; demonstrates this with his artwork based on &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;American McGee's Alice&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; and &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Alice: Madness Returns&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;The pieces below show his interpretation of Alice, the Cheshire Cat and the Mad Hatter, and demonstrates the creepy but vibrant Wonderland landscape from the games.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;This is just a small fraction of Omri's Alice art on offer. I urge you to check out the rest &lt;a href="http://omrikoresh.deviantart.com/gallery/126651" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. Also, sadly my blog does not let me resize images larger than this (they start to navigate off the page if I do), so the full size, high resolution versions can also be found via his site.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

How many times have you gone ahead and bought a game at the full price and found it for more than half the price cheaper elsewhere the next day? It's a frustrating, 'kicking yourself' type feeling, especially for those of us on a tight budget.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;This is where &lt;a href="https://www.lynx2games.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Lynx2Games&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, a relatively new game trading/purchasing service, steps in.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OEkSr9NZkGU/UXUUKlohoAI/AAAAAAAABuM/ToBHSM4GicE/s1600/181151_319035974848635_1325393526_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OEkSr9NZkGU/UXUUKlohoAI/AAAAAAAABuM/ToBHSM4GicE/s1600/181151_319035974848635_1325393526_n.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;In their words, their mission is to create a more intelligent video game renting and buying experience. The service provides three payment options to allow you to get your chosen game in the best possible way to suit you. These are:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;1. Instant buy: Get your games immediately for the regular price&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;2. Three week rental: Rent brand new games for a 1/3 of the price.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;3. Delayed buy: Pay 2/3 of the price, wait three weeks, then keep the game forever.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Not all stores give you the option to rent a game bang on the release date, especially smaller game stores, and some others have limited amounts of discs for rental on release, which can be disappointing if you decide to impulse rent later on that day. The great thing about this service is that the disappointment and huge charges are both pretty irrelevant.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Teaming up with a friend and using their 'Buddy Buying Service' allows you to split the cost even further by sharing a game between the two of you.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;To explain the payment options further, check out this handy diagram/guide:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Today's Music Monday track is a tune from &lt;b&gt;BattleBlock Theatre&lt;/b&gt;, the latest game from &lt;b&gt;The Behemoth&lt;/b&gt;, most known for their arcade game &lt;b&gt;Castle Crashers&lt;/b&gt;. I purchased the game yesterday, and am having a lot of fun so far. The Behemoth's humour is continued in this title, along with the cute style and fun multi-player.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

You may remember I also participated in Review A Bad Game Day last year too.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Anyway, I'm actually rather pleased about this one. For the most part, I enjoy the games I end up playing. It's very rare that I come across a game that I have absolutely hated.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;My Review a Great Game Day entry is about (not a surprise to those of you who follow me on Twitter...), &lt;b&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/b&gt;. The reboot was a pleasant surprise for many, and I have absolutely loved playing it. So, presenting...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h2 style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Tomb Raider (2013)&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Lara Croft has been dominating our screens ever since the original game was released back in 1996. Ever since then, Lara has become something of a gaming icon, spawning not only a successful game series, but two films (starring Angelina Jolie as Lara), advertising deals (who can forget those Lucosade adverts?), merchandise, comics and more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;As much as I love the &lt;b&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/b&gt; games, there was no denying that the series was close to becoming a little tired. Thankfully, the news of a reboot came along and fixed this.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/tlHpPLQ2dd4" width="420"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Released in March 2013,&lt;b&gt; Crystal Dynamic's&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/b&gt; takes us back to the beginning, showing us how Lara becomes the&amp;nbsp;archaeologist&amp;nbsp;adventurer we know and love, whilst also changing her history that we have grown to learn from the previous games.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;In &lt;i&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/i&gt;, we are introduced to a 21 year old Lara Croft, a University graduate who is on board a great ship called Endurance, for an&amp;nbsp;archaeological&amp;nbsp;expedition led by Captain Conrad Roth. When a sudden storm destroys the research vessel, a young and inexperienced Lara finds herself stranded on a&amp;nbsp;mysterious&amp;nbsp;and remote island hidden off the shores of Japan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;On first glance the island appears to be deserted, but soon enough Lara not only comes up against dangerous animals, but human enemies too. Shipwrecked, stranded and alone, Lara begins to re-discover her fellow crew mates, but the only way off of this island is by resolving the secrets within alone. &lt;i&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/i&gt; sees Lara not only battle the elements, animals and enemies, but uncover secret tombs, whilst all the while fighting to look for a way off of the island and back to safety.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Pn-XP41OfCE/UWHuYXFtsMI/AAAAAAAABtE/A8XiaLUXTVI/s1600/tomb2.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="225" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Pn-XP41OfCE/UWHuYXFtsMI/AAAAAAAABtE/A8XiaLUXTVI/s400/tomb2.jpeg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Many people have compared the gameplay of &lt;i&gt;Tomb Raider &lt;/i&gt;with the &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Uncharted &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;series, which is a fair point-it does indeed have a lot in common in relation to the action sequences at least. However, do not let this put you off. This origin story is great blend of exploration and high-octane action, enough to keep you playing until the end. Both forms of gameplay-the exploration and action sequences, are definitely fun to play, especially when using Lara's bow and arrow. As you level up, all the weapons you have collected can be improved to create brand new attacks-the napalm arrows are by far one of the most enjoyable.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;How you play the game is entirely up to you. If you enjoy stealth play, there's plenty of opportunities for this.I never was a fan of stealth gameplay before &lt;i&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/i&gt;, but I ended up adopting it at every opportunity. The fact is, it really works in this game,&amp;nbsp;particularly&amp;nbsp;if you can pick off enemies at a great distance with the bow and arrow-it's rather satisfying. The other way of playing this is to make your presence known to the enemies whenever possible. This often warrants a much larger fight, with enemies throwing molitovs, and closing in on you to create a more personal, tougher fight.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ogDH3kTJYUY/UWHufoUkHvI/AAAAAAAABtM/Opp__-0yFlg/s1600/Tomb-Raider_Screenshots-12-3-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="225" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ogDH3kTJYUY/UWHufoUkHvI/AAAAAAAABtM/Opp__-0yFlg/s400/Tomb-Raider_Screenshots-12-3-1.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Through the course of the game, we see Lara turn from a scared, inexperienced but intelligent history buff into a much stronger, agile and battle-worn woman. This transition is an interesting one to experience. You will find yourself wincing every time Lara is beaten, attacked, sent hurtling down large cliffs,slamming into structures, to cheering as she learns the motions of becoming a full blown survivor.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Emerging as a strong, confident, agile survivor, it has been a real pleasure getting to know this new Lara, and you will be yearning to see what lies in store in the future for her.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Also worth mentioning is how fitting the soundtrack is-a blend of&amp;nbsp;feudal&amp;nbsp;Japanese style tracks, with a jungle&amp;nbsp;flourish. Lara's new theme is constantly referred back to in most of the tracks, creating a true heroic score. Whilst the gameplay is satisfying, the game also boasts impressive visuals, which you can see via the textures on the scenery, and on Lara's increasingly battle-worn body and clothing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IjeDSBaHWTo/UWHumhvRawI/AAAAAAAABtU/QYbAE6OM6r8/s1600/tomb-raider-delay.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="223" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IjeDSBaHWTo/UWHumhvRawI/AAAAAAAABtU/QYbAE6OM6r8/s400/tomb-raider-delay.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Whilst this is supposed to be a great game review, not every game is perfect. &lt;i&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/i&gt; unfortunately suffers from some slight repetitive moments of gameplay (still rather enjoyable though), but the biggest disappointment is the multiplayer mode. Really, the multiplayer feels rather&amp;nbsp;unnecessary&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; as this game has a strong enough single player mode on it's own. The multiplayer modes are in fact a little forgettable, offering us game types we have seen time and time again, such as a variant on Capture the Flag. Whilst this may be enjoyable for plenty, I personally just got a little bored of it, turning my attentions to Lara's main story instead. Another slightly disappointing aspect is that it feels like the game bows out lightly. I was expecting a full-on boss battle, but it never fully comes.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Still, despite those criticisms, &lt;i&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/i&gt; is a brilliant game. Crystal Dynamics have successfully rebooted the series with an&amp;nbsp;enthralling&amp;nbsp;origin story that firmly places Lara back in the limelight after what feels like forever. Bring on the sequel.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;In closing, take a look at this comparison screenshot of the old and new Lara to see how much she has evolved. No more pointy boobs for one!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Fancy some &lt;b&gt;Mario&lt;/b&gt; Piranha Plants in your home? Well, Etsy seller &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/BeadxBead?ref=seller_info" target="_blank"&gt;BeadxBead&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt; is selling some!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Created from fused beads, the piranha plant is available in two sizes, and a choice of two different poses, as shown below. A great addition to a Nintendo fan's home, they won't require watering, and these piranha plants won't be nipping you any time soon either! :P&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;I would love some of these for my new home!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Fans also loved it, with the game selling an impressive 1 million copies in just 48 hours.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;I've been a &lt;i&gt;Tomb Raider&lt;/i&gt; fan from the beginning, and have always found Lara Croft to be a strong, likeable character. The latest game is, in my opinion, fantastic, and is a welcome, and much-needed revamp for a series that was sadly in danger of becoming tired.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;If you like browsing art online, you may have noticed that a lot of fan art and cosplay has been created for this latest &lt;i&gt;Tomb Raider &lt;/i&gt;instalment. Here's few of my favourites below. I had so many more to include, but then this post would have gone on forever!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
