Where I'm at right now

Edit: Forgot to mention that I took off the ads. They were very intrusive and weren't actually generating any cash.


Ah, new year, new batch of games.

As I begin my inevitable loss of interest in EVE online I looked into other MMO's. This time, it's warhammer online: age of reckoning. It's not the only warhammer-ish thing as of late, I bought dawn of war anthology a few weeks back.

I went for the retail version of warhammer online and struck gold.



Yes, that is the collector's edition of the game. This thing is scary huge. It's roughly as big as an xbox 360, and I think even a little heavier. It was on sale for $65 at electronics boutique (EB games) at the st. lukes westfield shopping center. Obvious plug, but that was an awesome deal you have to admit.


In other news, things have been going great - I finally managed to fix a busted partition on my hard drive (that was about 17.9 gb of unusable space)and added it back to the main partition.

How did I do it?

..Dunno, actually.


So, anyway - Warhammer 40k Dawn of War. Friggin' brilliant, if I say so myself. I didn't think squad-based real time strategy would be possible - if even such a thing existed - but I have been proven wrong.



WAAAGH!


Other than that, nothing much else has happened. Currently looking into buying mass effect 2 on steam.

Add me on steam if you want to, here's the link.

I'd just say my steam community name but there's about fifty different goddamn "penguin"s on there.

Half life 2 dragged kicking and screaming into 2010.

EDIT#2: Replaced the twitter widget and also changed the general layout of the blog.

EDIT: Just noticed that the twitter widget has broken and is now displaying whatever the hell it feels like. Hmm.

Now there's something you don't see everyday...

PS1 Emulation... on windows 7?

Technology these days, eh?

Earlier today I dug out my mangled old copy of Digimon World and got my old install of ePSXe running, loaded up a few plugins and it worked like a charm. I just wish I had looping eye of the tiger every time I entered the gym. It was made really enjoyable by the fact that I had managed to get my PS3 controller to work with it, thanks to the good chaps over at .

Their latest drivers allow you to emulate an xbox 360 controller using a PS3 controller. Works with most games, Left 4 Dead being the exception.


In other news, I've been playing about with a few games. Fallout 3, Overlord, Torchlight, James Cameron's Avatar: The Game...

Yes, a movie game. Despite what reviewers say it isn't actually that bad. It feels like ubisoft actually tried.

Tried being the key word, they still failed horribly.





oh god that buggy was the most horrible vehicle ever
