I’m weeping a tear inside because one of the reasons why I originally bought my 3DS has been snatched away. Mega Man Legends 3 was officially cancelled by Capcom yesterday after it didn’t “…meet the required criteria.” Capcom also stated that there were no plans to release either…

Why am I not surprised, a Dr. Who Reddit section! It’s scary, n’est pas? Geronimo…!

Square Enix’s Tetsuya Nomura recently sat down with Famitsu to reveal a few details on Kingdom Hearts III.

So what’s in store for Sora and the gang? Apparently, a franchise—well at least one for Sora, anyways.

Nomura said that there is some type of framework in place for future sequels…

Yay, Mick’s dad commented that this is inevitable. /rant

I do hope they would take the young people’s feedback, and it’s important the teachers are on board, even if the government is. Thing is, I’ve heard this year-in-year-out and not much happened. There might be chance something good would happen though as the Junior and Leaving Cert are going through some changes.

Fantastic news for Limerick on winning the Public Choice Award winner at the 2011 Irish Architecture Awards. Whenever I am down there with my husband, we would drop by as he loves his cup of freshly roasted coffee from a nice coffee shop (the name escapes me somehow). Well done to the winners, well deserved for improving a great amenity. I was so happy to see it on the news last night as well.

It’s mad that just 2 years ago, it was relatively ok to drive up to Belfast around this period. we were going to IKEA and completely forgot about it, it was the 11th when we went up back then. All we saw were British flags, everything else was as normal as could be. With all the violence leading up to today this year, I hope this is not setting a tone for years to come. It would be a pity for unsuspecting tourists to wander into the wrong place at the wrong time.

Remember Bord Gáis “Big Switch” campaigns? Remember the last time you saw one on tv? Tis been awhile, ay… and now they are hiking up costs for gas and electricity. These practices should be stopped. You make a switch from one company to another and the company you switched to would be cheap for first 2 years, but jack up the price a lot after that (no control over that, but granted it is in the small print)… or they get taken over by another company and get screwed over that way (no control over that either). At least I didn’t make the “Big Switch”. Although those cold calling feckers that are Airtricity recently knocked on our door over the weekend. Bah to the lot of them. So at the moment, I’m sticking with ESB (or whatever they call themselves now) and gas with Bord Gáis.

The iconic Palomino Blackwing Pencil 602 has been favored among artists, designers and writers for many years. This reintroduced classic pencil is set above the rest for its soft yet sturdy lead hence “Half the Pressure, Twice the Speed”. Its rectangular ferrule allows for…

Saw it in the news, so I went to the Heritage Ireland site and I was a little appalled that the link “Free Admission” wasn’t even highlighted and I found it anyway as the instructions before that was “Click on the following link for details.”!
