COD AW - Domination Kill Challenge...

Hey guys,

Sorry that I've been quiet recently, I've been working on getting some great footage together for making some YouTube videos, and the first is below for your viewing pleasure...

Now I've always said that I'm not the best gamer in the world, so this is an achievement for me, it's not that often I get this many kills, but even when I don't and I watch my gameplay back it always makes me chuckle, but hey there are worse players I suppose.

Funday Monday #4...

This is definitely something I think we can all relate to, and frustratingly so there's absolutely nothing we can do about it! Grrrrrrrr...

Funday Monday #3...

Good evening fellow bloggers, here is another Funday monday post coming your way, I know there wasn't one last week, was reaaaaaaaalllly busy, but that's why there's a second funday monday post coming up later tonight, I hope you like them as much as I do :)

My worst nightmare...

Funday Monday #2...

Good morning all :)

By the time this post goes out, I will have already started work 7am-3pm shifts all next week, oh the joys :D

So I shall leave you with today's thought, got a chuckle out of me, hopefully it gets one out of you as well :)

Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 - Movie Review...

Hey Guys, I know I promised you a movie review mid-week, but unfortunately I sprained my ankle, so mainly have been sleeping, but it has allowed me time to watch a load of amazing movies, all of which at some point I will review for you. here's the most recent one I watched, albeit a bit late.

As always the views are my own, and I know that not everyone will agree with me, but this is my take :)

Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2
Release Date - 17/04/2015
Estimated Budget: $30,000,000

"Keeping our malls safe".

Source: http://www.imdb.com

The sequel to Paul Blart: Mall Cop is finally upon us, and unfortunately for me, this movie lacks character and ambition, albeit it has some great comedic value, it has a samey approach to the original and frankly, this just lets it down.

Several years after the mall incident, Paul Blart is invited to stay at a Luxury Hotel in Las Vegas, as predictions go, you can probably work out what I'm going to say next! The hotel is over-run by thieves trying to steal the precious paintings, and artefacts from the hallways, and guess what there's an inside man working within the hotel who gives the baddies an all access pass to the hotels most prize possessions.

Will Paul Blart save the day again? - Of course he will!

I'm really sorry to have to say this, but this has went down as one of the worst movies I've watched in a very long time, it's funny in places, (Such as where he gets kicked by the back legs of a horse, or when he rolls down the stairs in a 'Bulletproof' suitcase) but I don't like predictable and downright silly movies! Ahh well neeeext!

Further Storlyline (Source IMDb).

"After six years of keeping our malls safe, Paul Blart has earned a well-deserved vacation. He heads to Vegas with his teenage daughter before she heads off to college. But safety never takes a holiday and when duty calls, Blart answers".

Loot Crate August Theme...

Hello :)

Just a quick little update to tell you Augusts theme for Loot Crate, it's straight from Heroes 2 to Villains 2, why am I more excited for Villains than heroes?

Apparently there's a 'wearable item' that they've never put into a loot crate before, so that's very interesting indeed, and I am super excited :D

July 2015 Loot Crate...

Good Afternoon...

So without further ado, here are the glorious contents of this months Loot Crate box, this month's theme was Heroes 2 (Because they've already brought out a Heroes Loot Crate in the past)...

Sweet, Sweet Loot...

So what's in the box? well my geeky friends let me explain :-)

1. Q-Pop Batman Figure, this is an awesome figure from the original TV Series, and he's standing on his own version of the Bat Mobile, I don't want to take it out of the box, because I want to keep them all nice and neat in the box, but it's awesome and will take prize place in my (new) collection...

2. Batman Multi-Tool Keyring, the second thing that popped out of the box was the keyring, it's a lot larger in real life than it is in the picture I might add, it's a cool batman logo with a bottle opener, flat ended and positive ended screwdriver! Nice addition to my keys Yus!!!

3. Trekky Air Freshner, The traditional Trekky greeting in the form of a air freshener, and a Vanilla scented air freshner at that! That's going in my car in't mornin...

4. (Exclusive) Legend of Zelda Sweat Band, I'm a little disappointed that there wasn't a T-Shirt in my first Loot Crate, but maybe next time eh? Still a pretty awesome sweat band, suitable for Gym Goers of course...

5. The League of Regrettable Superheroes (The Loot Crate Edition) Is a a really cool hardback comic book with some amazing gaffs in there, maybe just maybe I may share some of them with you :P

6. Glossy Wonder Woman Poster, this is a really cool Wonder Woman poster that would look awesome on any fans wall, sadly I have nowhere for posters to go, so I'm going to leave it in it's little box in the hope that someday there will be a place for Wonder Woman in my life...

7. A downloadable game from Steam called Bawlhalla which is a 'bawl and fall' fast-paced shooting game, looks awesome and I will be checking it out soon!!

8. A copy of LC Magazine which shows information about what's in the crate, what the mega crate is (Basically a Mega Crate is a box worth Thousands of $$$$ that some lucky person wins every now and again, it'll not be me though I never win anything) Humph!!

9. Last but not least, the exclusive Loot Crate badge pin, which will take prize position on the first ever loot box shelf!!

It's also worth mentioning that the inside of the box is rather cool as well, it seems to me that a lot of thought and effort go into making these Loot Crates amazing, and I'm well impressed with my first one!!!

If you're interested in joining Loot Crate yourself, click my referral link below, if your in the UK it costs from arounf £22.00 per month (and P&P is free) and if your elsewhere (America) the price starts from $29.95, and there's even other places Loot Crate can post to!!

Sweet Geeky Crates Of Loot...

Good morning! I am actually really excited to open this, but it will have to wait until I finish work later on this evening (Sooooorrrry but I'm running a little bit late)...

The secret is though I've already opened this, but you will have to wait until this afternoon :D

It's awesome though and well worth the wait, I guess other people will unbox loot crate and post it on here, but I'm going to do this once a month myself as soon as the lovely black box pops through the letter box...

Unfortunately this crate comes all the way from America meaning that by the time it gets here people have already posted the contents, so make sure you don't go looking elsewhere mind Or I will find you and I will kill you! (Who doesn't love a bit of Taken)...

Doesn't it look so pretty though?

Doesn't it?

Doesn't it?

A Geeks Dream...

Funday Monday #1...

Good Morning!!!
Since this is the first ever Funday Monday post ever, I will share both a small blurb that made me chuckle, and a picture that made me chuckle also...

Funny Blurb of the day
"You know when you walk into a room and forget why you went in there? That's God playing Sims, he just cancelled your action". 

After the scouring the net for a picture this one got me to smile a little...

Hello World #3...

Hellooooo! I am so so sorry that it has been 3 months since I posted my last blog post, I had planned on writing a few posts and scheduling them, but unfortunately real life has taken over, and it's just been work, work and more work!

When I'm not at work I am always too tired and lack motivation to do anything other than wind down and go to bed! But I come to you with a promise, I will be writing posts and I will be scheduling posts on a more frequent basis, because I do love to blog...

I don't care if anyone reads my blog or not really (Although it is a huge bonus) it's my blog and it's my own little world and my escape when things get a little tough, or when life gets way too hectic...

So here's a list of what I'm going to do from now one, so expect to be amazed :D

Funday Monday 
So from now on until kingdom come, I will be posting either a funny picture, story, poem or joke to brighten your day, I'm going to try and stick to the gaming/geeky/entertainment theme but I cannot promise this, it might just be a random thing that I find funny, because who doesn't need a little uplift on a Monday?

Midweek Movie Review
I do like to review movies, so expect a mid-week movie review from now on (Either Wednesday or Thursday) this could be of a movie that I've already seen, or a movie I might watch specifically, I do like to put my own spin on reviews, and explain the movie how I see it, and always put a little helpful rating on there for you all as well :)

Loot Crate Unboxing
Every month as soon as the tiny (but packed) black box of goodies comes through the door a picture will shortly follow to show what the glorious contents are, the boxes do come from America so there might be a slight delay, but nobody likes spoilers anyway so don't look elsewhere :P

Gaming/Social Gaming
You can definitely expect some more posts with regards to Call of Duty, and other games I have started playing, I wouldn't dream of reviewing them because I would be there forever, but I will post achievements, funny and interesting stories.

And a lot lot more, I definitely promise that I will be here more often :)

So stick around, we've got a lot to catch up on!

Dweelan Out!

Hello World #2...

Hello all, I know I've been super super quiet, why have I started reading 'Super Super quiet' in an American accent? I'm not even American!

So I started my new job, and I'm now 2 weeks into it, it's early days, but I'm actually really enjoying it, I've spent almost 5 years in the energy industry, and now to move into the financial services industry is definitely something new and exciting, and something I'm genuinely interested in!

It's certainly a lot stricter though, if I make a mistake or do something wrong, it's not just a case of loosing my job, I could be banned from working in the Financial services industry for life, now there's a thought.

I've also met some great people, and get on really well with everyone at the new workplace, I'm not finding it a chore to go to work, I get up and quite content with a routine, and  a great job to go to, which also pays a lot better than the previous one too :P

On another note, my car is poorly it's squeaking a lot, needs some new brake pads, it also needs a new headlight because the indicator is dodgy, and it needs other bits and bobs done to it as well to make it all pretty and nice :P

On one final note, I've just watched the reveal trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3!!! It's fricken amazing, that might be the tipping point in me buying an Xbox One, but I'm hoping that I can still play it on the old 360 for now, money is tight ya know!

 I haven't really played AW much I've grown a bit bored to be very honest, but I'm sure i'll get back onto it soon!

Anyway, that's all folks thanks for listening again!! :)

Fast & Furious 7 - Movie Review...

Fast & Furious 7
Release Date - 03/04/2015
Estimated Budget: $190,000,000

"One last ride".

This is it, one of the best ever movie franchises (in my opinion) returns with Fast & Furious 7, this is a sequel to the critically acclaimed Fast & Furious 6, and follows the story of Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) who seeks the ultimate revenge for hospitalising his brother Owen Shaw who was responsible for terrorist-like activities in the sixth instalment of the franchise.

Image Source: http://www.cinemablend.com

The whole team are back together, and what a blast it is (pun intended), this movie is full of high octane action from the word go, and is an emotional farewell to the late Paul Walker, who sadly died in a real life car accident.

A young hacker invents a program to track anybody, anywhere on the entire planet, it's the teams job to make sure that this program doesn't fall into the wrong hands, because if it does, this would result in catastrophic consequences.

This movie has definitely sealed itself as one of my all-time favourite flicks, so much so that I'm considering going to watch it again!

Further Storlyline (Source IMDb).

"Dominic Torretto and his crew thought they left the criminal mercenary life behind. They defeated an international terrorist named Owen Shaw and went their seperate ways. But now, Shaw's brother, Deckard Shaw is out killing the crew one by one for revenge. Worse, a Somalian terrorist called Jakarde, and a shady government official called "Mr. Nobody" are both competing to steal a computer terrorism program called God's Eye, that can turn any technological device into a weapon. Torretto must reconvene with his team to stop Shaw and retrieve the God's Eye program while caught in a power struggle between terrorist and the United States government".

Hello World #1...

So I was inspired recently by a fellow blogger/friend a 'bliend' to post something a bit more from the heart every so often, to give you an insight into my life and what's happening, and why I'm doing this...

I started this blog for a number of reasons, one because my friends have blogs too, both of which are really cool, and I liked the idea of having a hobby and something to write about, because I do love to rant and write, even if I don't have the best grammar or spelling, it's nice to have somewhere to put down my thoughts, and just escape for a little bit.

I found out not so long ago that my current employer will not be renewing my contract, and my last day of employment was 31/03/2015, they let me leave early, so I could find alternative employment, even know I haven't really shown it, this really put me in a bit of a bad spot, sounds daft but the blog really really helped with that, which is why there was pretty much me posting non-stop LOL!

I've now found a new job and I start next Monday on the 13th April and to be frank I'm absolutely shitting myself, I lack in self confidence which is my main issue, but other than that I'm just generally scared of starting a new job with new people, it takes a lot for me to 'let someone in' even though I'm getting better at it :)

So I just wanted to share a little bit of a personal story, aside from my new job, I have also decided to become an Avon Representative again, do I like make-up and perfumes and stuff? Ermmm... NO! It's just something to fill the gap in my CV, and earns me a little bit of pocket money on the side, always like to keep busy from a job perspective, wouldn't like to have to go and 'sign on' every two weeks, can't be dealing with that LOL...

My aspirations for the rest of the year, is/are to start our YouTube channel (3wee) I think that's what we're calling it, I hope they are happy with that :P

To clear some debts, go on holiday and buy a new car, maybe not all of those will be possible but small steps eh?

There is always someone worse off than you in this world, I'm lucky I've got some amazing friends, and family, some of them don't really know this, but without them I don't think I would be the person I am today, I'm a 'Bottler' and it's not often I'll go soppy on you!

Thanks for reading!

Call of Duty Black Ops 3 - Officially Announced...

Hellllllooooooooooo!! Today has been a very very interesting day for the Call of Duty series, Activision have officially announced that the next COD game to be released will be Call of Duty: Black Ops III!

It all came about a short while ago, when a random update was rolled out to Black Ops 2 games! Why would they update a game that's more than 2 years old? In doing this, they actually updated the game to reveal little teaser pictures, containing snap chat QR codes, these several snap chats, have revealed mysterious little details about the upcoming release, but nothing has really been given away, until now!

I can't tell you how excited I am for the launch of this game, Black Ops and Black Ops 2 were my favourite ever Call of Duty games, for both Zombies and Multiplayer, there have been lots of hints dropped all over the place today, here's the main points I've found out!

1. Element 115 reference in the teaser trailer (Zoooooombies)
2. Co-Ordinates to the location of a bridge in Egypt???
3. Co-Ordinates of a school???
4. Co-Ordinates of an old holding prison in Switzerland???
5. Futuristic feel and look of the game, is there an Exo suit in there???
6. Will this be available cross-platform or next-gen (I hope not, let us have one last COD on the old Xbox 360 LOL)
7. Lots of hieroglyphics and symbols, factions or prestige emblems maybe??? 

The official world reveal is set to 26/04/2014 only 16 days away, It's so sad but I'm actually excited to see what comes of it!! 

Here is the official teaser trailer, released by Activision only a few hours ago! 

On a little bit of a final note, Clan Wars starts again tomorrow in approximately 19 hours, this time we're visiting L,A, not sure about the rest of my clan, but I'm looking forward to finally completing the centurion loadout, and I really want to get to Clan level 25, so we can have the infamous red tag! wooo...

Nighty night :)

COD AW - Two New Prestige Levels - Video...

Hello all and happy April, I'm really sorry that I haven't blogged in a while, I've been really busy spending a lot of my time over at my friends' house, playing A LOT of Call Of Duty, and staying up to ridiculous times in the morning, I've left now for a little while (Because I think they're getting sick of me a bit :P hahaha).

To celebrate the Launch of the DLC2 pack on COD AW, we had the opportunity to partake in some Double XP COD action, for a solid 3 days and oh did we play!

We played so much so, that I managed to get through two prestige levels, so now I'm sitting comfortably at Prestige 9 and most of the way through to Prestige 10.

Prestige 8 Emblem

Let me talk about Prestige 8 first...
So the emblem is pretty damn cool, it features a pretty scary snake with wings! Yes wings! I think I called this a Birnake half Bird/Bat and half snake...

This is one of my favourite emblems so far, I know I keep saying that but it really is...

Unlocks for this prestige level were 1x Atlas Tier 1 Pants, cool all red pants, similar to bloodshot design, and also one Advanced supply drop (Which I opened in the video below).

Now to move onto Prestige 9, the emblem in itself is a little bit of  a

Prestige 9 Emblem

let down, looks to be a series of swords, presented in a cross shape, with some sort of creaturey/animal thing in the middle, can't quite make out what it is, is it some sort of dragon? or is it some sort of other more friendly animal a Fox perhaps... I literally have no clue, if you do know... please enlighten me!

Unlocks for this prestige level again were a little disappointing, and I unlocked just one Advanced Supply Drop, which again is opened in the video below.

Let's hope that there's something pretty decent that we unlock at Prestige level 10, as soon as I get there, I'll let you know :)

One more point before I post the video, I've had a quick look at the new DLC pack, and the grapple playlist is awesome!! First time I used it, somehow managed to get a kill with it, by shooting it in between someones eyeballs, they must have had prior damage or something, not sure if this is a glitch or something! Gutted that I didn't record that shit lol...

Anyways here is the video of the prestige levels and the 2x Advanced Supply drop openings.

COD AW - Clan War Prizes...

Good evening all, well it's 2am here, so less of the evening and more of the morning I rekon!

Just a quick post as always, to share with you the prizes we reaped for winning the clan recent clan war...

We won:

1. Centurion Loadout
2. 400 Clan Points
3. New Clan Background
4. Level 23 

Here's a quick video I've thrown together to show what this looks like on my character!

If you have any questions about anything Clan War related, let me know :)

I'm off to sleep!

Night folks :)

COD AW - Hardcore Team Deathmatch Gameplay...

I'm sorry that I haven't been blogging in a while, I have some very exciting news to share, look what came through the post the other day :D

I chose the Elgato Game Capture HD, because it had great reviews, and I like the fact that you can record your gameplay directly to your computers HDD, as others I've looked at require a flash drive, external HDD, and it's just far too much expense, so this is a short term investment for a long term gain (Hopefully).

So without further ado, I would like to present myself (Dweelan) and my friend Jennwee (JENNorthernSoul),

We played Hardcore Team Deathmatch on one of our favourite maps 'Terrace' and the result for both of us was quite pleasing, we did die a few times, but we hit them even harder, and managed to scrape a close victory...

But it's the winning that counts right?

If you enjoy this video, please let me know what you think :)

*Update* A couple of people have mentioned that the video is of poor quality, so I've uploaded it to YouTube and linked it directly to here, if you are finding it difficult to see, click the little 'Gear' and change the video to HD (I would recommend 1080HD if your internet connection is up to scratch.

I know it's a little hard to watch both screens at once, with it being split-screen Gameplay, but it's worth a second watch to see how the other person fairs.

I particularly like around 4:30 into the video, here you can see me and Jen clearing both entrances to 'The Room' now that's teamwork!

I would like to point out that I don't normally 'Camp' which is probably why my K/D ratio is ridiculous, I'm more of a run and gun type person, and when it pays off, it pays off big time!

On one final note, it was an absolute nightmare trying to get this video below 100mb because Blogger does not support files bigger than this. It's taken me a full evening and half of this morning, to get it to the correct stage, by running it through various compression software.

Because of this, the quality has had to suffer a little bit, but it should be clear enough for you to see the action!

As always, if you like what you see, please let me know in the comments below, I do seem to get a few views on my blog, but no one seems to want to speak to me :(

Enjoy the rest of your day!

COD AW - New Prestige Level/Recent Clan War...

Good afternoon all, I have entered into the next Prestige mode, Prestige 7.

Nothing great that unlocked, apart from an Advanced Supply Drop, you now get one at levels 20, 30, 40 and when you enter your next prestige mode!!! Bring on the Advanced supply drops!

Prestige Level 7 Emblem

I'm very very close to Prestige level 8, and I'm in need of a good week long double XP, so I can get to my goal of becoming a Prestige Grand Master (Which will probably never happen)...

Oh well here's to hoping.

Keep an eye out for a post going up in the next hour or so, it's a good one! :-)
The emblem pictured somewhere over there >>> is very cool looking, it has a picture of a fist with an Exo glove on there, and there's some sort of medieval/sword/angel theme going on there, definitely one of my favourite emblems so far! :-)

And moving onto the recent clan war that we particpated in over the weekend, we won (Again) making this our third win in a row, I'm very frustrated about two things.

1. The fact that Search and Destroy was one of the territories that needed to be captured, I cannot and will not play Search and Destroy ever again, because it took me a full day to get the 6 wins needed!!! Grrrrrrr just WHHHHHHY!!!
2. And again right at the very last minute, after dominating most territories for the majority of the clan war, someone swings by in the last few minutes and captures our location, this time it was Domination!!! Oooooh It's on!!!! 

So those are my frustrations for the game over the weekend, I'm still quite annoyed even though we won, a lot of hard work went into Dominating this Clan War, whoever messed it up I will find you... and I will kill you! hahaha...

The Imitation Game - Movie Review...

The Imitation Game
Release Date: 25/12/2014
Estimated Budget: $14,000,000
Won 50 Awards (Including an Oscar)

"Sometimes it is the people who no one imagines anything of who do the things that no one can imagine". 

The Imitation game follows the story of Alan Turing, and is based on real events during World War II.

The story follows the amazing work that Alan Turing and his team of Cryptanalysts undertook to crack the Enigma code!

Image Source: http://writingloudandclear.blogspot.co.uk/

The Enigma code was created to send encrypted messages to German soldiers, without the British being able to read them, this was to strike at the heart of Britain with the element of surprise, all the British could do was sit back, and watch the Country being torn apart.

This was before mathematician Turing did something amazing, did something that no one else could possibly imagine, and crack the Enigma Code.

When you watch this movie, you feel like you are part of something special, it instantly grabs you, and fills you with a sense of awe.

Benedict Cumberbatch' performance as Turing is second-to-none, from the humble BBC Drama Sherlock, to a multi-award winning movie, starring alongside the one and only Keira Knightley.

I was a little bit unmotivated to give this movie a go, because i'm not a big History or a World War fan, but this movie had me engrossed from the start, and is right up my street.

One of the best movies of 2014, and well worth a 5 Star review!

Further Storyline (Source IMDb)

"Based on the real life story of legendary cryptanalyst Alan Turing, the film portrays the nail-biting race against time by Turing and his brilliant team of code-breakers at Britain's top-secret Government Code and Cypher School at Bletchley Park, during the darkest days of World War II".

My Movie Rating:

COD AW - St. Patrick's Day Update...

Sorry it's been a while, I did have some scheduled movie reviews to go out, but for some reason they haven't gone out, so that's why there has been dead silence for the past few days.

I think I am going to review more movies, because it's something I really like to do, so if you have any suggestions of a movie to review, please let me know :)

Moving on to Call of Duty - Advanced Warfare! This St. Patricks day, the gaffers of the game have decided to release 24 hours of double XP (my phone autocorrects this to DO) it  ran from 17/03/2015 - 4pm (GMT) to 18/03/2015 - 4pm (GMT). I got to playing COD at around quarter past 4, managed to get one game worth of double Do, and then poof! It went... Absolutely gutted and so close to the next prestige level too!

In other news, Advanced Supply Drops have now reached the Xbox 360, again these are in-game content you can purchase, with real life money.

You can purchase a maximum of 230 of these at the moment, this is until the limit is lifted in the nearby future. 

If you did opt to buy the full 230 you'd be looking at around £350.00, they aren't cheap and in my opinion, unless every item was guaranteed to be an Elite item, then I think it's not worth it. 

Each Item again comes with its own armory slot, when you do sell an item for XP it does give you that free armory slot as well, which is a nice little bonus, and as always at least one item in the drop will be of professional level or higher, meaning you are guaranteed at least 1000xp if you sell this item from each drop. 

And finally, the next Clan War hits Mexico, and is coming on the 20/03/2015 (Tomorrow) I have a feeling that this is going to be quite late for us Brits. 

The Hundred-Foot Journey - Movie Review...

The Hundred-Foot Journey: Release Date - 08/08/2014
Estimated Budget: $22,000,000
Nominated for a Golden Globe Award

"Your home is where your family is".

The Hundred-Foot Journey is a feel-good movie which combines beautiful scenery, with great food and impeccable acting, heavily based around a collision of culture and values, but ultimately a love story in the making.

Image Source: IMDb

This movie has a gripping Storyline, and the writer has made a unique connection with the audience, after watching this movie, you feel like you know each and every one of the characters personally.

When the Kadam family are forced to move away from their home Country, due to a tragedy, they take the decision to move to small French village, not by choice but an accident in their vehicle causes them to break down, is this fate?

The Kadam family decide to purchase a derelict building exactly one Hundred feet away from  Madame Mallory's (Helen Mirren) Michelin-starred restaurant. 

Panic ensues, and this is the start of 'Restaurant Wars' between the two heads (Om Puri/Helen Mirren) in the midst of all of the problems, a great young chef 'Hassan' earns his way from being at the bottom of the pile all the way to the tippity top of his profession.

The comedic value added by Om Puri (East is East) and the impeccable french accent by Helen Mirren (The Queen) adds to the overall excitement of this film.

This is by far one of the best stories I have followed and one of the best movies I have seen in a very long time, I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone.

Unfortunately I have not given this movie a 5 Star review, because it can seem a little 'empty' in places, and I feel there were more opportunities in this movie for the characters lives to be explored a little more,

Further Storlyline (Source IMDb).

"The family of talented cook, Hassan Kadam, has a life filled with both culinary delights and profound loss. Drifting through Europe after fleeing political violence in India that killed the family restaurant business and their mother, the Kadams arrive in France. Once there, a chance auto accident and the kindness of a young woman, Marguerite, in the village of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val inspires Papa Kadam to set up a Indian restaurant there. Unfortunately, this puts the Kadams in direct competition with the snobbish Madame Mallory's acclaimed haute cuisine establishment across the street where Marguerite also works as a sous-chef. The resulting rivalry eventually escalates in personal intensity until it goes too far. In response, there is a bridging of sides initiated by Hassan, Marguerite and Madame Mallory herself, both professional and personal, that encourages an understanding that will change both sides forever".

Focus - Movie Review...

Focus: Release Date - 27/02/2015

Focus... The con is on!
A group of high profile tricksters carry out a series of heists and scoop 1.2 Million Dollars by conducting high volume, low risk pick pocketing.

The stakes are increased when the takings are gambled, but who comes out on top?

The game is upped when the marks are located, and the big con begins, a multi-million dollar deal is about to go down, who will fall victim, and who will be victorious?

Will Smith (Men in Black) and Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street) perfectly play the role of villain in a story of love, hardship and heartbreak.

Throughout watching this movie, it kept me in suspense most of the way through, it's comedic value gives you a little chuckle along the way, but the suspense literally has you hanging off your seat, with so many twists and turns, this movie will get you thinking from the start.

Within my movie reviews, I also wanted to put in the official Storyline from a site like IMDb just to give you more insight into the movie.

"Nicky Spurgeon (Smith) is an extremely accomplished con man who takes an amateur con artist, Jess (Robbie), under his wing. Nicky and Jess become romantically involved, and with Nicky's profession of being a liar and a cheater for a living, he realizes that deception and love are things that don't go together. They split, only to see each other three years later... And things get messy". Source: IMDb

Social Gaming - World's End...

Social gaming is something I've been participating in since I was 15, I've played my fair share of online games, the majority of which I have played (and am still playing on Facebook).

Everyone at some point in there life, has probably harvested a few crops on Farmville, or dressed their pet up in Pet Society, but the games I play on Facebook have a bit more of a unique genre.

Commonly referred to as 'Clicking games' there is no real concept of playing a video game, but does it mean it can't be fun? Absolutely not I've probably collectively spent more hours on Facebook playing various games than I have playing PC or console games...

You might be thinking, well what's the point, why does he keep playing these games? The real reason behind this is the community of players, I went through a fairly tough time when I was younger, and found Facebook, started talking to a few genuine people I can actually call friends, and met one or two of them in real life also.

You might be thinking are you barmy, how do you know what you're letting yourself in for? but I'll tell you what, escaping to my 'online life' is sometimes a lot better than the real life I live on occasion, it draws you in and for a brief moment you forget, and just enjoy playing the games, and getting on with people.

For some of my real life friends, I think Social gaming is hard to grasp, it's hard to explain what these games are, and why they are interesting, they are also so popular, so the game developers must be doing something right!

The game I'm going to talk about today is World's End, as time passes I'm going to be doing a more of an in depth review of the features, and what you can actually do in here.

World's End is in my opinion a Strategy game, a clicking based browser game albeit, it's one my favourite games that I've played of all time, so much so that I've been playing for 1931 days (you can do the maths) I've invested a lot of my time into this game, a lot of effort and I've helped the game grow by making the occasional in-game purchase of game currency known as 'War Credits'

The aim of the game is to progress through various levels and brackets, building up a strong squad of players, and have kick-ass weapons, to take on the community and fight your way to the top.

This is commonly known as the 'Most deadliest game on Facebook' and it certainly lives up to its name, from punching a fellow solider, to a fully blown nuclear attack, this game has it all.

If you're intrigued by this and would like to give the game a go, follow the link below, be sure to check back regularly for updates, and a bit more guidance of what you can do in the game.

Screenshot of my Level 22,000+ Solider

"World's End is set in the near future after the collapse of the world as we know it. Following a nuclear war many former nations have banded together and formed national alliances. These newly formed alliances are in a constant struggle for power. Choose an alliance and join in the battle. Carry out missions, amass territories, build up your arsenal of weapons, gear and vehicles.

The world will end, how is up to you".

UPDATE: World's End has unfortunately came to an end and is no longer available to play anywhere online! We had fun whilst it lasted :)

COD AW - My New Playercard...

Good afternoon all, if you weren't working today, I hope you've managed to have a nice lie in (I know I have) sorry to those who haven't, but maybe next weekend eh? :P

I just wanted to show you my recent Playercard that I've created in COD - AW, so if you happen to come across me in a game I'm playing, feel free to check my blog out (I'm assuming if you're reading this, you might have done that), and also feel free to send a message, a game invite or whatever...

If you want to criticise the way I play my game, then please don't, I don't how many times I've said this but I'm not pretending to be the best COD player in the world, I just like hanging out with my friends, having a laugh, killing and of course dying loads :-)

Have a great rest of the weekend :)

COD AW - Clan Raids/Companion App Update...

Good morning everyone, this is just a quick one as well to show you the recent updates made to the Call of Duty Advanced Warfare companion app.

It shows that the Clan Raids are definitely coming soon to a clan near you, and you have the chance to participate.

Take a look at the screenshots below, before I go into more detail about the clan Raids, and what they have to offer...

As discussed in a previous blog post, there was a preview of Clan Raids for Diamond Division clans to take an exclusive sneak peak, before it's released to all clan leaders worldwide.

Releasing a preview to a certain 'Elite' squad of players is a bit of a mixed bag of reactions for me, I think it's slightly unfair that these clans get to see this in action, and earn rewards before the rest of us do, I feel like we have put the same amount of effort if not more effort into getting our clan where it is today than they have.

On the other hand however, they have worked hard and deserve rewards for that, so I can see it from both sides if i'm honest.

Anyway... the results are in from the preview, and the reviews were mixed, A commander or Lt. Commander can start a clan raid at any time, and you either have to follow a set of objectives in a set amount of time in the correct order, or you can compete in objectives that can be done in any order.

These are fairly similar to clan wars, being that you have to win certain matches, the only difference is you have to win a certain amount of matches within a restricted time limit...

There were comments that a clan of 3 people had to win 75+ matches in 3 hours, is this even possible? I think Sledgehammer have set the bar a little bit too high here, because if the average Domination match takes 10 minutes to complete, then that's 18 matches you could win in an hour, and if you times 18 by the number of clan members (18x3) this equates to 54 and that's assuming that all 18 matches were won in a row... so what are they thinking?

An important note to add is that even if you have a clan of 10 people, the leaders get to choose who competes in the Clan Raids, and get added to a 'Firing Squad' team, the firing squad can then earn the following rewards:

• Exclusive in-game items
• Clan XP
• Clan Tokens
• Enlistment to other Clan Raids 

All in all I think the reviews are fairly positive, albeit the challenges are a little bit difficult, but this opens up a new dimension to Call of Duty Advanced Warfare, and brings clans closer together, Sledgehammer have really focused on bringing the community together here, and they have done a great job in terms of increasing the social aspect of the game! so credit where credit is due.

Again if you are interested in joining our clan (RHN) not to be the best, but just to socialise and win some goodies perhaps, then leave a comment below, or shoot me a message (I'm all ears)

Thanks guys :)

COD AW - Prestige Level Challenge Resets...

This is just a really really quick post to share my excitement about something I've just found out today *Can I get another drum roll please*

LOL just kidding, it's not really that exciting, but I have found that when you do prestige in COD AW, all of your challenges reset (bit of a bummer) but your camo unlocks and challenges stay active!

This is a very very good thing, because getting those dogfight, and longshot medals are an absolute nightmare!!

Thank you Activision/Sledgehammer :-) 

COD AW - New Prestige Level...

So I've been playing COD now pretty much none stop over the past 2 days, and managed to scoop another prestige level, so now I'm Prestige level 6, and more than half way through to the next prestige level 7.

The prestige 6 emblem is pretty cool, it's a dragon presenting what seems to be a replica of a Scottish flag, that's a bit weird that it reminds me of a Scottish flag but it's still really really cool :) 

Prestige 6 Emblem

I'm also quite chuffed to announce that a new piece of loadout gear was unlocked, when I entered this prestige level, and this was the 'Atlas Tier 1 Shirt' an all red shirt, with black pockets and an orange zip, pretty cool as it looks close to the bloodshot loadout items.

During pretty much constantly playing COD over the past 48 hours, the game has become quite glitchy in places and quite frustrating, it feels like an unfinished piece of work, but when it works it works very well :)

The most frustrating thing is that I'm constantly getting messages such as 'No Games Found' when searching for a game, not sure what causes this, whether it's the matchmaking, or whether there genuinely isn't anybody else playing, but surely this can't be right?

Another thing that made me chuckle was when I was in the firing range, testing out the new MK14 - Eclipse I unlocked the other day.

And these were my results... LOL

103% Accuracy? GO ME! lol, again sorry for the bad picture quality, capture card will be with me in the next 10 days or so :-)

And I leave you with a final thought, Easter is one of my favourite times of year, because of the family comings together, and also the fact that Easter Eggs are the best invention since sliced bread.

Here's a picture of Betty the Cow enjoying kicking some ass in COD.

My Car Music Playlist...

So not only am I a dab hand at writing a couple of movie reviews, and sharing my antics on the games I play, but I'm also a little bit of a music fanatic.

I want to share with you my relatively small 'Car Music' playlist, I listen to these songs on the way to work, and basically whenever I drive anywhere.

To be honest some of the songs on this list are quite embarrassing, but I don't necessarily listen to a song because of the band/artist, I like to listen to songs for lyrics, because a lot of these songs mean something to me personally, and a lot of the others are just songs I generally like... so no making me feel bad about my music choices OK?

Xbox 360 Gamertag Change...

So previously my Gamertag on my Xbox was dylz312, this has now been changed to my nickname 'Dweelan' it's also pretty cool because I've also created a Blogger emblem in Call of Duty - Advanced Warfare, to showcase this and try and get some more readers.

I played COD for a little bit today, and haven't played that bad in months, it wasn't even the quality of the other team, it was just down to me slacking and being tired, so the best I managed today was like 12 kills - 30 deaths, whoops that's not going to do the ratio too good is it?

Bah, like I say, I am not the best gamer/COD player in the world, and I don't intend to be, I'm having a lot of fun, even if I do die multiple times a minute.

So here is my new name tag kindly provided to me by Xbox, this would have cost £6.79 but I had some money stocked up from Xbox rewards, so I think my contribution to it was around £1.99 or something like that.

This is just a quick post today, about sharing my excitement for my new Gamertag :D

Charlie & Me

Yes that is me wearing a chicken suit (This was because our old clan in Call of Duty - Black Ops 2 was called #CHICKEN) I miss the COD Elite days :-(

And yes that is also my husky called Charlie... and he's 3 this year!

Minecraft Monday...

So we played a little more Minecraft today when I say 'We' I mean my fellow bloggers and friends, Jennwee and Kirstwee :)

Link to Kirstwee's Blog
Link to Jennwee's Blog 

(Please check them both out when you find the time).

Sooo back to Minecraft, what's new? Well I've built a nether portal, found some horse armor, tamed and bred 4 little doggies (One of them I called Charlie, and the other was called Rhino) we also have 3 puppies that we haven't named yet, because we've ran out of name tags :(

Any suggestions for names for the puppies?

I constantly seem to get lost in Minecraft so frequently dig up to get myself to normal ground, but when I tried this today, I went head first straight into a lava pit... Nice!

Ooh ooh ooh and did I tell you that I found more diamond today? I decided to dig underneath some lava and found another 11 bits, bringing our total to somewhere near 20 pieces of diamond woohoo!

Also I'd just like to say that visiting the Nether is something that I find emotionally draining, it's the scariest place in Minecraft, and there's so many nasty things there that it just makes you want to cry... having said that I did steal some nice goodies from chests in the Nether Fortress so that's worth some bonus points.

If you want my opinion, stay well clear of the nether :)
