Videogames Blog Help

[SamWise]

A friend recently bought a dreamcast off ebay when drunk (I know) and didn't know what to do with it, so I bought it off him as it gave me an idea. I've got a fair selection of old consoles and I was thinking about starting a blog in which I play through some of the bigger games, both good and bad on each console. I'd be able to cover the big consoles like the Megadrive, the Snes and the N64, and compare them with less popular ones like the Gamecube and yes, the Dreamcast. I'm curious to look at what made one console succeed where another (arguably) failed, and I want to do a bit more writing to fill up my time.


Problem is I know next to nothing about setting up a blog. Talking nonsense about old consoles, yes. Useful life skills, no. So I was wondering if anyone here would a) be interested in said nonsense and had anything they think would be worth talking about, and b) can tell me where someone like me should host such a blog. Would I be okay with the like of Bloggor/Wordpress or should I play it safe and use something that holds my hand a bit more like http://www.1and1.co.uk/hosting-windows , which seems a bit more 'for dummies'?
