So, December then.

With my review of Mirror's Edge, I hit a personal milestone of 50 written reviews, which I'm very happy about. Mostly because I've proven to myself that I can actually commit to something, which I've never really been able to do before.

I've got a few reviews planned for this month, too. Prince of Persia, Sonic Unleashed, and some of the other big games from the pre Christmas rush are on my list. There's also some downloadable content coming out for Fable 2 which I'll be looking to review.

Then there's Twilight, a film coming out in the UK on December 19th, and I'm really looking forward to this one. Not because I'm a fan of the books, or because I liked the look of the trailers. But because I think it will be bad, which gives me an chance to try out some more comedic or cynical writing, which I love doing. There's also a new Wallace and Gromit film out this Christmas, and it would be criminal if I didn't do a write up on that!

I'll be continuing the written TV reviews as usual, but there's something that I've wanted to try for a while, and that's a video review of the entire third season of Heroes. I'll be going for a different angle with the video reviews than I would with a written review. The balance will still be there, but it'll be hidden under several layers of cynical and crude rantings, similar to Charlie Brooker's style on his show 'Screenwipe'. I'm not sure how it will turn out, but I'll try and make it entertaining.

Hope you've enjoyed the reviews I wrote in November, and I hope you like whatever I come up with this month. As usual, feedback is more than welcome!

Cheers,

Tom

The cumulative word count for my first 50 reviews is 40,816. Which is 10,000 less than what my girlfriend managed in her one month of NaNoWriMo. Damn...
