Aaaanyway

I'm going to bed soon. I'm *tired*
Which is weird because my mean bed-time for the past has been something like 12 (1am one night, 11pm the next)
But now *every* night by 10.30 I'm *wiped*
Bizarre
Speaking of bizarre..
I "purchased" Left 4 Dead. I'm still downloading it (4gb...) and when it's done and I have played it look forward to my opinion of it
Be forewarned
It's a freakin' Zombie Apocalypse Survival Horror Game
They don't get any more bland
And this one actually *has* bland, boring level design (subtley hidden by some kind of random Director AI)
So... Yeah
I watched the TV spot
Looks *horrid*
Cliche' characters, a setting plagiarised from Dawn of the Dead and bad, BAD one-liners
I can't imagine ever being impressed/awed/intrigued by it
All I felt was "Eerrrkkhh... Another city+zombies dash for the finish..."
But, who knows
I ordered some Intel, Nvidia and DOlby stickers for my PC from Ebay
Wonder if they're legit/passable as legit
Or if they even have adhesive =P

Monstarz

Was listening to this. I first heard this nine years ago and I still listen to it.

I think thats a record for me. The video is *way* trippy...

The Eternal Struggle

One Ring to rule them all,
One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all
And in the darkness bind them

Those immortal words inscribed upon Sauron's bling are more suiting now than ever.
Why? Is there a mad crusty-armored dude with his very own volcano going to whoop some Human/Dwarve/Elve ass? Hah. I wish...
Instead it is another, even more epic struggle
And it's happening in your offices. In your homes. In your pockets, ladies and gentlemen
Yes. The much-debated topic of Uber-Oneness

The Netbook vs The Smartphone

DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNNN

They can to something like 80% of the same tasks. The remainder seperating them. Only one can win and be 'The Device' of the 21st century
But what will it be?
Will the sturdy, ultra-portable Netbook win? With it's bigger screen and storage, and more robust operating system?
Or will it's (generally speaking) higher cost and larger footprint bring it down?

Or will the small, hip, techy Smartphone win? With it's push mail, it's always-on mode, it's merging of Phone, PDA and some PC functionality see it victorious?
Or will the lesser-beefier hardware, often-clunky OS and somewhat poor inbuilt PC-functionality leave it in the dust on the battlefield for Goblins to shit on?

Yes, ladies and gentleman. Like VHS vs BETA, HDDVD vs BD,(Blu Ray for you non-techies)
There will only be one victor
But who will it be?

...I'm safe because I have BOTH^^
Mwahaha
Let the battle commence

Duke Nukem Footage

...Which footage!?
HAH
Seriously. Duke Nukem is like The Wet Dream for the 80s pimply, nerdy teenager (me 20 years in the past?!)
See this
I mean they kept the generic Bad Guys
The tried-and-true Pig Man, Alien Soldier and Big Ugly Bad Boss Thing
*sigh*
Watch the movie
I noticed:
About 10,000 horrid (although rather comical) 80s calls, including "I'm not going to fight you, I'm going to kick your ass!"
And
(Worse than anything else)
Corridors
Yes, ladies and gentlemen(Who?! -Ed)
Corridors. VIdeo game designers still think we enjoy corridor after boring corridor full of boxes ansd bland, generic tunneling, more boxes, low ammo and MORE BOXES
And then some more bad guys
Bah
By the way
Duke Nukem Forever (The title in wuestion) is probably older than I am!! Seriously!
The textures on Pig Man would look OK about five years ago on LOW-settings-enabled half-assed FPSs (Or the latest Soldier of Fortune)
I have a Laptop again, BTW
Core 2 Duo 2.0, 3gb DDDR3 RAM
And
A G105M CUDA-enabled GPU
Yes. Be jealous.
Aaaaanyway
This is a shout out to my wonderful, sexy (Yes, I said it^^) amazing, cute beautiful pretty girlfriend
I love you
(Her, not you other readers^^)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOVELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
