I have recently talked about the most popular genres within the gaming industry. I have discussed the pros and cons of Simulation and Real time strategy games. I have delved into the Role Playing genre and why I believe it is worth every penny when investing in these lengthy titles. I have not however included beat em up’s, puzzle and platform, and driving games. These I consider to be the lower end of the spectrum, even though once they were at the forefront of the gaming market. Games as old as Tekken, Croc, Tomb Raider, Need for speed, Forsa, Dynasty Warriors, Midnight Club, Street fighter and many more come to mind.

We continue on the road towards the top then FPS games, and here we have #8 on the list. Battlefield 3 takes the place of number 8 on the list, although I imagine some diehard fans will disagree and argue that I’m saving higher spots for the Call of Duty games. I have placed BF3 at number 8 because there are a few problems I have the title, there are of course some features that I think other FPS should take away from it as well. Battlefield has been a popular franchise for some time now, and is probably one of the most well known games of all time.

When you’re working on the Material Girl, your skills better be up to par.
No one knows that better than makeup artist Gina Brooke, who collaborated with Madonna on the makeup looks for three of her worldwide concert tours. And it was a makeup emergency on stage that sent Brooke running to the cosmetic aisles in search of a solution.
“I never used primer until I worked on tour with Madonna. She would dance and sing for two and a half hours straight on stage, and her makeup would totally meltdown. I went crazy looking for a primer, and that’s how I stumbled across Hourglass’s Mineral Primer Base,” Brooke tells StyleList.
The oil-free base contains SPF 15 protection, and absorbs oil as it reflects light for a soft-focus finish. It contains no parabens, sulfates or phthalates, and is completely fragrance-free. Brooke was so impressed with her new makeup kit must-have that she recently became the new artistic director of the Sephora-sold brand. Previously, Brooke had spent five years working with Shu Uemura, and is credited for transitioning the company into a cult-lash brand by creating the lash bar concept. Unlike other celebrity makeup artists, Brooke doesn’t use deep colors to contour cheekbones and jawlines, instead preferring to highlight with light instead. “When you use light instead of darkness, it softens the whole face and creates the illusion of a fresher, younger-looking appearance. Artists always tell me they want to look like they’ve been sleeping for days, and using light gives you that glow,” says Brooke. ........ Read More>>>

'There is a soldier in all of us' - do you have a soldier in you ? Without wanting to drop an austin powers (mini me) line 'would you like one ?' I wanted to post this video on here as it gets at the real reason why this game is so damn good and hard to beat.
Call of Duty Black Ops follows in the footsteps of various other online shoot em ups featuring realistic military sequences and hardware and scintillating online gameplay (at least on the xbox).
It certainly deserves a mention on this site as a stylish game of its era.

The rising emergence of sexy women in music video
This documentary shown on BBC Three iplayer @BBCiPlayer showcases the emergence of a trend of getting as much female flesh to the air in todays pop and music videos. Before this was just in Hip Hop [Nelly Videos NELLY's OFFICIAL TWITTER] and dance; remember that drill and other power tools SATISFACTION ?
Well today we have the likes of Katy Perry [follow on twitter] and its a bit cleaner somehow, but then tomorrow ?
We may be at the level whereby tv is degrading so much that Music TV is in fact more entertaining and short, and we seem to be demanding it.
These videos may not show us the whole story and this documentary tries to get into the real girls at work and the aspirational girls who are slightly delusional that they will become stars, or perhaps maybe they will.
Regaton videos and Latin America have certainly helped bring about this trend in music video (check out Calle 13 Rene Perez Joglar) and the nature of media no longer being 4 channel tv is that these videos are not being seen by your parents but they are BIG business. Certainly for me in a non sexual way Axwell's Feel the Vibe is my favourite all time Music Video go and see why.

New Order and Joy Division were and still are are, for me a massively influential group for myself growing up in the 80's and 90's and for a whole generation pre and post emergence of the rave scene. From 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' to 'Blue Monday' (which still sound great) , you only have to look at the British music scene now to see the influence they still have - check out The Editors for a very Joy Division vibe - namely 'Munich' to Black Kids to many electro acts / dj's around for miles.
What always was great for me in purchasing a New Order (or indeed Pulp) album was the fantastically gorgeous artwork of the album sleeves that could only ever be Peter Saville design....From album covers to other Factory Records projects - you will find his mark on it. Personally I find his designs to be fresh, intelligent, polished , colourfull (mostly) and though I am sure many others would describe the postmodernist influence in his work etc etc...to me they just look amazing and he just seems to really 'get' the bands and the music he designs for.
A huge favorite electro group of mine and an admired designer - both excellent in my opinion... but find out for yourselves. Best tracks:Theives Like Us, Fine Time,Regret,Ceremony,True Faith,1963...and the list goes on..
