more ROAR for series 6

The new series of CBBC’s ever popular ROAR got started this week and, accordingly, a new update for our online game has been rolled out too. We’ve added a load of new content and features including a new habitat (British Countryside), new animals, treats and cheat codes, new ‘Furry Facts’ video content for each of […]

This Just In…

..And  some breaking news coming from the ‘Internet’ ..I’m finally able to start talking about a cool new site I’ve been producing with Endemol comedy supremos Zeppotron and Channel 4. This Just In… is a website that aims to mix new comedy talent alongside existing big names that will be making up to the minute […]

now playing! Red Dead Redemption

So I’ve just finished a wonderful game that I’m sure will soon be regarded as a modern classic. Red Dead Redemption excels in so many ways that it’s hard to know where to begin, but for me the game’s magic lies in the way Rockstar have set their sights on (and for me achieved) surpassing […]

mapping ITV’s Australian Balloon Adventure

We recently put out some show support content for ITV’s Stephen Tompkinson’s Australian Balloon Adventure. As the name suggests the show follow’s TV’s Stephen as he undertakes several balloon trips across Oz culminating with his team taking part in a ballooning competition. We worked with ITV, the show’s producers Tiger Aspect (a fairly recent addition […]

twemote: fixed and back on the app store

A very quick post to say our TV themed twitter iphone app ‘Twemote‘ is back up on the app store. It hasn’t been working for a while now, following some changes to the Twitter API, but the clever engineers at our technology partner Isotoma have it all working again and lovely. We’re now having a think […]

William Hill Betlive

Over the last couple of weeks we’ve been working on some updates to an old project that I designed and produced last year for bookmaker William Hill. Looking at it again, against the backdrop of the ongoing World Cup, made me think it was worth putting down some thoughts on the project, where it came […]

Deal or No Deal Live – new features!

We’ve put an update live for our social multiplayer version of Deal or No Deal, it includes a number of new features that we’re hoping its small, but loyal, community of fans will enjoy. The most noticeable change is that we’ve added a feature allowing players to auto-join a match mid-way through (no more hanging […]

now playing: Bioshock 2

Bioshock was my standout game of 2007 so a purchase of Bioshock 2 was pretty much an automatic reaction. I couldn’t wait to return to Rapture and I’m happy to say it was well worth the trip. This time it’s gameplay that takes centre stage while the crumbling art deco environment and story, for me […]

The Million Pound Drop – play along game

What a week this is turning out to be, each night I’ve been on set at our new live gameshow ‘The Million Pound Drop‘. Why? because this is the first live production Endemol and Channel 4 have done that offers a complete play along at home game experience to complement our TV show. (watch it […]

now playing! Heavy Rain

Quantic Dream has managed to pull off something very different with Heavy Rain. If you’re not already familiar with it then I think it’s fair to describe the game as an ‘Interactive Movie’ ..and if this description makes you shudder with fear, well, you’re not alone. So, has David Cage, it’s director, managed to break free of the stereotype you’re thinking? ..almost.
