Good Monday! Its time for the next installment of our PlusXp mini series 2 Eds are Better Than 1. As eager as I know you all are to see our two Eds embark on their next gaming adventure I must first take a moment to apologize to the series fan. I cannot deny that this episode is a little late, not due to a lack of footage or technical fault but because of many changes that have occurred recently in […]
During the weekend of the Eurogamer Expo 2010, someone made the grave mistake of giving me and Iain (aka Pix3lboy, fellow Gaminglives Writer) a camera. We then took it upon ourselves to film a load of what can be best described as “silly time-wasting nonsense”, full of merriment, whimsy and not all that much gaming. Previously thought lost to the world, it has finally been edited and uploaded into the greatest compilation of awesome to punch you in the face […]
Hands on For me this years Eurogamer Expo was going to be different. Of I suppose in a way it was different for everyone because of the new venue, but for me it was an extra special occasion. Why you ask? Well this years Expo marked the official start of my new role as the resident video editor of PlusXp. Having had a great response to last years videos contributed by Mark Boss it seemed only natural that this year […]

MarkBOSS was armed with his camera at this mays MCM Expo and this is what he filmed.
The MCM Expo in London is famous for its cosplay. This time last year I was shamefully unaware of this fact, and strangely enough it was ten minutes in Canning Town tube station which enlightened me. Traveling into the city was surreal on that crisp October morning. As I stepped off of the train to make my change for the Jubilee line I felt like I had entered a different world. The usual depressing reality of the dark dusty station […]
Trying to get into the video games world is a tricky task. Trickier then say Ikaruga or World at War on Veteran. Specifically, gaming journalism it seems is the first ideal foot in the doorway for any other job in the gaming industry. This makes gaming journalism extremely competitive and career possibilities few and far among. About a year ago a thought ran across my mind- Hmm I want to make money, BUT I want to play video games while […]
Mark Boss hits the Oxford Street HMV for the launch of one of the biggest games of the year. On his own and midly ill he tours the queue armed with only a Microphone (named Susan) and his camcorder. This actually turned out to be one of my favourite event coverages so far, and a great start to the year. HUGE thanks to all those in the queue that doubled as my camera person. That includes you Pete! Uber cool […]
Happy Valentines day Everyone! -markBOSS
