Comment on The Very Best Of Joan Armatrading by sarahoflanagan@unison.ie

I hadn’t listened to Joan Armatrading for about 10 years and wondered what to expect…..From the first notes it was delightful and uplfting.

Her unique style and clever lyrics come across beautifully in this compilation with a great selection of my “old favourites”. The mood and tempo of the tracks blend well together with a selection of fast and more gentle songs. She really has a unique sound.

It had me singing while I worked and even the baby smiled and rocked to Love and Affection !

Beware! This game is absolutely nothing like the other Farcry games! The controls are clunky and unintuitive, the vehicles unrealistic and no fun to drive. About the only thing that lives up to the hype is the fire and explosions. I’m not saying that you won’t like it, but I personally found this game annoying and no fun whatsoever. If you can, try before you buy!

I would thoroughly recommend this album to anyone who grew up in the 80’s. I love this album, it brings back lots of memories and I also forgot how good it was. I was a bit too young to appreciate it at the time but it’s terrific. I saw Joan Armatrading at Glastonbury in 2008 and I really enjoyed the music so I bought the CD. Excellent stuff!

Welcome to Farcry 2 or should that be GTA (Farcry).

Let me stress that this is NOTHING like the original farcry which was full of atmosphere and included some cool upgrades like being able to run faster and see in thermal vision. Far cry 1 was ace!

Now i come to Farcry 2 - open world not linear (which is not for the better) and the atmosphere it just not there. Instead the game has a 'do what you like when you like' theme, unlocking safehouses to save your game as you progress. Sound like GTA to you yet?

After 3 hours i've become bored with the singleplayer game - however the multiplayer is slightly better.

Only 4 game modes including capture the diamonds (flag) but these modes can be played on custom made maps. That's right - you can make your own maps to use online So there's no getting bored with the maps supplied by ubisoft.

Unfortunately the actual gameplay is a long war short of COD4 or Halo 3 but if you don't mind less realistic movement of players (ie poping out of a jeep when killed) then you might well enjoy the online part.

To sum up - singleplayer is like GTA and not farcry 1 and online multiplayer is reasonable.

EDIT - i've got some negative feedback about my review of this game, but i assure you it is not like farcry 1. if you want a GTA type game then this might be for you but like farcry 1 it is NOT. I notice the next review after mine has put the game on ebay after 1 day. So i'm not on my own in thinking this. Rating: 3 / 5

A perfect item like all Garmin items. Light and sensitive object is the perfect companion of my GarminEdge 705 and my Forerunner 305.

Who are the blue meanies? Why is it only a northern song? Where did they get that artwork from? Was everyone stoned when they made this?

Great film, great music!!!

The worst game I haver had the misfortune to play.

Avarage graphics – unresponsive control – endless driving around which is even more endless when you have to stop to find a diamond.

About as exciting as watching paint dry.

Yes it is set over a wide area, but drive off the road and you always come up against the cliffs that can’t be traversed. the cliffs also block any view you might have had. So it’s great if you like looking at a dirt road beacause that’s all you’ll see.

A total waste of my time and money.

Comment on The Shadow Project by The Book Nut

The Book Nut — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 13:50:31 +0000

I was eagerly waiting for this latest in the Ben Hope series. I knew it would be good, but The Shadow Project has exceeded my expectations. What blows me away about this series is that the author seems able to keep mining deeper and deeper into his main character, making him ever more interesting as a fully-rounded human being, when after five books most other returning characters are getting stale.

Forget the tedious Da Vinci Code comparisons. This book has nothing in common with the Dan Brown subculture or the vast number of also-rans that it has spawned. At its core is a genuinely fascinating historical enigma that raises many topical issues about our modern world and inspired me to find out more. Mariani playfully pokes fun at the more wacky elements of the conspiracy theory world, while making you wonder whether some of the suppressed secrets the story reveals could really be true!

In many ways this is the deepest and most accomplished of the Ben Hope series. The way the plot strands weave together is a work of genius, combining high-octane action and adventure with a gripping detective story, the harrowing plight of a family torn apart, a moving love story, and a real payoff for readers who have been following the series since book 1. I loved it, and am now sorry I have to wait a while for the next one to come out.
