Fresher than a magic tree soaked in mint

I started this blog a while ago, in fact, almost a year back when I was finishing my fourth year of university. Now I'm a qualified Journalist (are we ever really qualified?) and have a lot more to say about the gaming industry, plus I'm finally getting paid for my game reviews which can't be sniffed at.

So before I start this blog over again, I suppose a rundown is in order.

Since my first post, I landed a rather sweet job doing the weekly game review for Scottish national newspaper The Scotsman, it pays ok, but the exposure is worth its weight in gold. If you ever read the Saturday editon, you can find me in the "Critique" section. Also, feel free to hop on here and discuss my reviews.

For those of you who know me, I still write for the SkinnyMag as you no doubt discovered by the amount I plug it. I admit it. I am a whore.

Like all good whores I find it hard to break out of my trade and found another new pimp in the form of http://www.acegamez.comwhere I also regularly contribute, check out this site, it's going to be massive!

Finally, and perhaps most inportantly myself and my SkinnyMag brethren have created Fidget - Scotland's first true gaming website/magazine at http://www.fidgetonline.com/ The paper mag will be available sometime this year, expect a massive tidal wave of plugs when it lands.

So there you have it, reasons why you may enjoy this gaming blog more than the punter who just bought Need For Speed ProStreet and thinks it's better than Burnout Paradise.

Much love,

Dave
