Super Tech

Hello and welcome to my Blog, where I will be talking about films, games, my comic (Rise of the fallen), software, hardware and giving you information on where to find the best tutorial online. Also why your portfolio should be as good as your C.V.

First off let’s start on a light note: games. Is anyone else looking forward to the fifth instalment of Resident Evil 5 on the PS3? (Yes, I still play games, NO it’s not sad.)

If you own a PS3 it’s a must have, it’s one of the best games in this genre with by far the best storyline and beautiful graphics. You should all know or have heard about Resident Evil, it made its debut in 1991 on the Sony Playstation and was made a movie in 2002. The movie was not great but was successful enough to encourage the approval of a trilogy. To date, Resident Evil now has 4 movie titles, 6 games and 2 animations created by Capcom. If you’re a fan of zombie movies I think you should watch at least one of them.

Resident Evil (2002)
Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)
Resident Evil: Extinction (2007)
Resident Evil: Afterlife (TBA)
Biohazard 4D Executer (2000)
Resident Evil: Degeneration (2008)

While I’m on the subject of movies and games you should also check out Guitar Hero 2, Kill Zone and Call of Duty 4, Defiance, "Hulk Vs."
