This is not a review.

I just thought I would write a little about myself.

Well...
I'm 16 and I'm taking my GCSEs in 2 months. Not sure I’ll do too well.
When I'm older I would like to make video games. I am a very big fan of games and PC is my thing, planning to build one in the summer but i don't know if I’ll have enough money.

I’m starting to think i should get out on my bike more, but the weather in London sucks and i find it quite hard to breathe on the heavily polluted roads.

I do have to say it's quite hard being a teenager in London as every one thinks you're either going to destroy all in sight or Blast out bangin' tunes. I do have to contradict this and say that I keep my music at a reasonable level and pay respect to anything that isn’t mine (unless it belongs to someone i really, really hate).
I will only ever get angry in public if the government enrages me by putting up train fares AGAIN or if some one starts insulting me (or if I see my ex).

I enjoy such things as: Crap films, Death note, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, The Terminator, Resident evil, most music (metal, grime, dub step, electro ect), Command and conquer (all of them), Ghost in the shell, the mighty boosh. Well you get the idea.

Back to video games; I’m not the average nerd seeing as I’m slightly under weight. Video games have become a sort of niche now-a-days sporning such shows as Pure Pwnage (pronounced pure ownage), Zero punctuation and Mega64, two of my favourite shows ever!
Though recently Game developers have shoved having fun up their arses and have made games co-op art works. i know it has to be said that some games are art, such as Pac man and spore but modern games aren’t compelling. Sure the story is good but is the game play addictive? Is it a challenge enough without pissing me off? i do miss games that a simple grind as apposed to a complex button mash grind.


Any way...
I love old films! Especially crappy old films!
They make me smile.

Also preferably not blogs for suggested reviews, I’m not a big fan of reading.

Ask if there’s anything else you want to know.

Requested Review: www.Hulu.com

In a word: All-American

In 202 words:

First impression is good, nice clean display, seemingly easy navigation and easy to read text.

I just want to state I am English, and to me it would appear that Hulu.com is only for American TV. So therefore it's marked down slightly as i don't really know of many American series apart from Diagnosis murder and Friends.

The search bar is well organized, meaning you wont get hot girls xxx if you search in Shaun of the dead.

You must have an Account to watch videos, TV or Movie, which I’m not obliged to make as I have the Nazi IP, Virgin. But I must to review it so…

Creating an account: this is the most hilarious account creation ever, you can select birth date from as far as 1870. Aside from the date of birth the account creation is practicly the same as every other website apart from that you need an American zip code which I’m not I’m position of... so no videos for me.

Well looks like I’m limited on this one, so ill stick with it's a very pretty site and i'm sure the videos are high quality.

It slightly reminds me of a greyer Veoh.com

To sum it up: I think I would have a lot more fun, should it go global.
