Pokemon and Other Things

Hello again humans, it isn't long now until I start the recording for the Pokemon Red Let's Play, with that in mind I have something pretty to show you. This sexy beast is the overlay I'll be using during the LP, not too bad right?

Control Me!

Yes that's right, I want you to control me. No not like that you depraved creature, as you may have noticed I've taken to uploading some 'Let's Plays' (DK64, Pikmin) and for my next big game I'm going to need a bit of... audience participation. Anyway I bet you're wondering what this little scheme of mine is, well it's Pokemon; Pokemon Red to be specific so, if you have any ideas or requests for the rival's name, which starter to choose, what to have in the party, nicknames even what to catch in specific areas be my guest and suggest away either here or via Twitter. I will essentially be your monkey during this and will do anything in game (provided it is possible), that being said please don't request things which will lead to the game becoming an unplayable mess, because that's just not fun. (also, do try and refrain from sharing any nicknames which may offend or insult people, this is a kids game after all).

I'll be starting our adventure this coming weekend so get those beautifully disturbing ideas to me as soon as possible, and vote on the starter via the poll at the top left of the page.

Monkey Business

Hello my beautiful humans, how are you? Good! A lot better than me I hope as I am currently dealing with the man flu, yes that's right I'm moping around the house feeling like crap sneezing and spluttering everywhere all because I got a bit cold and a nasty virus decided to pay me a visit. Bloody public transport.

On the bright side the gaming channel is go, as I write the first three videos (yes 3 whole videos) are being worked on and will be uploaded as the day goes on, but what are these amazing things of audiovisual delight? You'll just have to wait and see I'm afraid. Links will be on Twitter as soon as a new video goes live, or you know you could just subscribe...

Hello, I'm Phil and I'm here on behalf of... well me.

Hello humans and welcome to this digital spread of words which is my blog. I've put off writing this for quite a long time because I never really knew what to have as an first post, but now there are things (so many things) and I aim to share them here with you; not all at once obviously, I like you too much to bore you with all my nonsense in one go.

Perhaps Introductions are in order, my name is Phil also know as 'Crazy Pilf' or just 'Pilf'. You can find me here (Twitter), here (Youtube gaming channel), and here (Steam). The largest focus/drain/waste of my time  is gaming; be it an argumentative game of Risk with some friends, chilling out and exploring in Minecraft, or blasting through some of my old favourites like Sonic the Hedgehog on the Megadrive, gaming has been  a part of my life more or less since it began and while I don't profess to be an expert in game design or criticism I do thoroughly enjoy the escapism such wonderful things give me.
