Wooden Supercar.

Read in the telegraph about this Wooden Supercar called 'The Splinter' which is faster than a Porsche. It can produce upto 700bhp from its twin supercharged, 4.6 litre, V8 engine. Doesn't sound possible i know but it is, apparently.

Games I'm looking forward to.

This year is going to be another big year for gaming, for all platforms, especially the PS3 which apparently will out sell the Xbox 360, i think it might for about a month, then the 360 will crawl back to 2nd place. The Wii obviously isn't shifting, not for a while anyway.

The games i'm really looking forward to are:

1. GTA:IV - I've enjoyed all the GTA games from the start, my favourite out of the lot was Vice City, even though it didn't have as much in it as San Andreas, i still preferred the music, the time it was set, story and a lot more.

Here's the official site: http://www.rockstargames.com/IV/

2. Fifa '08 (Xbox 360) - I know it's been out for a while but i haven't had the chance to get, i felt a slight dissapointment with '07, it just didn't feel complete, only a few leagues, no skill moves and online just seemed like a 5 minute job. With '08 you get skill moves, a lot more leagues, a new Be-a-pro mode and more.

3. Gears Of War 2 - This will be on a lot of peoples list, i'm sure of it. I really loved the last one and the multiplayer, which was usually full of immature, underaged brats who like to scream down the mic, but still a lot of fun.

4. Far Cry 2 - Probably won't have a good experience with it because i haven't got a good machine to play it on so i'll probably just wait until i do then play it. Seen trailers and it looks and sounds huge, the demo of a trailer which was huge said it was only 1% of the whole game. Graphics and gameplay look amazing, too.

5. Fable 2 - First one was great and i hope the other one is. After seeing the trailers it really does look as good, if not better. Graphics are quality and the gameplay looks a lot better, i think it's going to be more of a open-ended game like Oblivion which i like.

This'll do for now and there is a lot more good games coming out this year.

First Post!

Been thinking for a while whether i should start a blog or not. This isn't the first time though because i have a blog on gametrailers which isn't really the same as this which made me start one on here. Blogging seems to be getting more popular by the day, as they can be used for just about anything, the main purpose of mine is just to discuss day-to-day events that occur which can be anything. I will try and keep it as interesting as possible, some blogs can be really boring and repetitive.

I will hopefully make this blog look a little more interesting though as it does look a little bland for now. Any ideas?
