Starting X-Tension
Posted by Roguey on 27 Apr, 2011 0 comments
Yesterday I started X-Tension after finishing the plot in X-BTF.
X-Tension was a big leap from X-BTF, with maps, changeable ships, ship stats, missions and capturing. I havnt got far yet but I found something interesting, which I thought may help to anyone playing it.
Once you have enough money, get 5 x Silkworm missiles. You can buy these from Equipment dock (in Argon Prime). A good idea is to save now. Next find a Argon Elite without a homebase and follow it. Once you can close enough, launch all 5 missiles (with roughly ... » Read more
X Beyond the Frontier starting tips
Posted by Roguey on 24 Apr, 2011 10 comments
Over the past few days ive been re-playing X Beyond the Frontier (ie. the first X game). You are really thrown in without no help, so I thought ill post some of my tips to help you get started - encase anyone else tries X-BTF.
You start off in Seizewell with one 1MW shield and a few credits. The first thing I recommend doing is to travel to the equipment dock and sell the shield. Contrary to the Teladi Capitan, you ship will be fine without a shield, just dont use the booster (this can make your ship explode without a shield). You ... » Read more
Cant find the special asteroid in Chinns clouds?
Posted by Roguey on 24 Apr, 2011 0 comments
At first I wondered where the heck Chinns clouds was. Looking around on the net, its south of Family Pride. I thought it was Rhonkars Clouds, I guess it got renamed in a later X.
Anyway... When you have to look for the special asteroid, it is here (for anyone having problems).
After you find the asteroid, use a Hornet missile to break the asteroid open. When the asteroid is broken, you should see a data recorder which you need to pick-up. ... » Read more
PS3 » Over 2,000 ps3 trophies
Posted by Roguey on 10 Apr, 2011 1 comments
I have just gained over 2,000 trophies on the PS3. This is a bit of a landmark for me, as I normally take my time with games. I normally try to get the most trophies from a game before moving onto another, although I do have a few games on the go atm (Little big planet 2, Assassins creed: brotherhood, gt5, fallout: new vegas, blood stone and few more).
I am trying to finish off Fallout3: New vegas, however it is fighting back with crashing. It even crashed ... » Read more

After the recent report from bing I wanted to check the site to see if any other site reports any malware, or a reason why bing thinks there is. I thought id try siteadvisor to see, however when I go to add this site it just comes up with:
It appears that the Web site roguey.co.uk (or www.roguey.co.uk) is returning an HTTP 2xx or 3xx status response code in the header of 404 pages
Ive checked everything here, and our 404's are correct. Oh well, stupid site ... » Read more

Bing activity but still low results
Posted by Roguey on 1 Mar, 2011 0 comments
Bing seems to be going mad: Constantly I keep seeing MSNBot on the recent unique visitors on the extreme counter (the blue planet icon at the bottom). So at-least the bot is actually visiting the site now. However... the status have only slightly improved (since last time):
I hope Bing's statistics start improving drastically, atm its taking a lot of bandwidth and only sending very few people here. Maybe the bot has took an interest in X3? TC? Just look how low those clicks and crawls are! ... » Read more
