I liked Fable... a bit. It was a little bit too easy... and Peter Molyneux once again proved that he can come up with great ideas, but he focused a little too much on them and made major mistakes at other points. Well, at least I wanted to play this game through this time - can't say the same about Black & White 1 & 2 'though.

Playing a buttload of mods I downloaded. I'm excided about a HL2 multiplayer mod just like Day of Defeat, except it's based in 1776/7 in the American Revolution. It's going to be interesting...

Perfect Dark Zero.

Gettysburg: Source? That actually sounds interesting, though the gameplay will be horribly anachronistic. Muskets were so inaccurate due to being a new invention, and this was when armies still marched toward one another until they were about twenty feet apart, and then just kept firing with their muskets and letting their lines drop. And people were exectuted for desertion/cowardice if they had the sense to take cover.

Yeah, I've been thinking about how they were going to fix that. I haven't exactly played it yet, I've been saving my bandwith for Azereus before all the seeders decide to quit bothering...

Actually, I'm screwing around with Simcity 4 (legally obtained, of course ), and I'm actually doing okay at it despite sucking at every other Simcity game.

I've only played 2000. I managed to cover the entire map in arcologies and the surrounding cities still had larger populations then mine. I suspected unfair play.

Simcity's the ultimate form of antigaming. You spend hours building a lovely looking utopia, then you run out of space and trash it with as many disasters as you can.

Well, I started playing it last night. The gameplay's refreshing, and definitely interesting. It takes abou five or six seconds to reload, and you only get one shot per load, so half the time you're running around with your bayonette stabbing people. There's some balancing that needs to go on, but the game's still in Alpha .15 build, so they've got a ways to go. They definitely took some liberties with the musket accuracy, however. The maps are simple, but good and range from long to very short range. I'll provide a link when I get home, the school blocks gaming websites.

Oh, and Gettysburg was the American Civil War, not the Revolutionary War.

Right now I'm trying to make a comic using Half Life 2: Gary's Mod, but I keep getting distracted with making dodgy sex scenes.

As promised, the link: http://mods.moddb.com/5662/

Click on the Downloads tab near the top. Just don't expect it to be free forever, Valve might gobble it up and release it commercially, like it seems to be doing for every other damn HL2 mod

Also, have you seen this this yet, my good doctor?

Personally, I'm playing Virtua Fighter 4.

Indeed I have, I just haven't checked out the latest comic yet, that was what inspired me to use Gary's Mod for comic purposes.

I was making a completely awesome Dawn of the Dead style setup to take some pictures in, but I accidentally clicked 'disconnect' instead of 'resume game', so I'm screwed.

Just got my copy of Metal Gear Solid 2 - Substance. Damn it, this game rocks. But the character-names are giving me a headache... what kind of disease must have plagued the authors, so that they'd name the guys Solid Snake or Liquid Snake...?

[Dr Lecter]

I made a couple screenshots of Max Payne diving around shooting with random Half Life 2 characters. Aswell as a rather clever comic, as soon as I have improved the punchline abit.
