Internal organs digitally remastered

Well,
I guess that you may have noticed that it is I who has suffered this insufferable bug and not the one they call Iced.
Rather, however, than describe my guts to you in glorious detail, I shall provide you with the enlightening issue that is PC gamers.
They cheat. Yes I said it, me the one who constantly tries to fight for these disgusting and hateful people.
Actually to use the words hateful and disgusting is probably taking it too far when I consider what Iced, Myke and Tetris must put up with but, still. Why would you want to cheat on something as trivial as an achievement, worse yet an achievement on the PC where there is no discernible gain other than the new weapons and even those are balanced so you end up with no real edge.
Moreover there isn't some kind of arbitrary number that some 13 year olds believe to be exactly correlated to the size of their penis.
Well now I've got that off my chest let's talk about some thing more interesting shall we.
For a start we have Quake live which seems vaguely interesting and could be worth a shot (sorry I just needed that one) next we I have just found out that Steam -unsurprisingly- is supporting EndWar (and more I'd imagine but, I can't be bothered to look).
Lastly I'd like to apologize to the rest of the team for not being in today but, you'll live without me.

Dreaming in Red

Needless to say, I am not allowed to say what I was going to say about certain people for legal reasons. I'm thinking that, maybe, I might copy and paste my 'Bored Log' over from my files on my work-place network, just to fill out a post: and most of them are quite funny. Most of them. But surely, a supervisor will come across this site and I will get screwed over or something. I don't know, maybe I'm paranoid.

Aparantly, netherworld narcoleptic dick pods yearn for butter. Whether you are a monstrous stupidly carcass of epic proportions, or a lame kangaroo of an indigo colouring, live your life using all your life savings as a support.

Anyways, try to prosper from my random ramblings. Beware of giant bear-like marsupials, and bears that used to be disguised as raccoons. I'm just trying to flesh out my posts, because Almighty Typealot seems to think that my lack of typing means that I overuse the enter key, as I've said before.

In short, I'm really, really bored.

Rolling on a surfboard of awesomenitude. Pandy yearns for butter.

Hay....

Anyone want to send me a free copy of Freelancer? I'm strapped for cash and I'm being threatened by Iced and Tetris- I mean, I really want to play it.

Also my cocoon is very much like a luxury condo, I have a 60 inch plasma TV, if you guys bring the food, I'll make sure we can watch Iron Man II on it.

A little like Frank West

It seems that every other post I make is constructed whilst I'm afflicted by one malady or another, this post included. If the trend persists I may have to investigate to see if there is a correlation between the two, maybe if I stop posting all my ills will miraculously disappear and never bother me again. But I would never allow this blog to fall into disarray, or worse, the unguided hands of Myke and Balai.

The Hawx demo came out on xbox live a while ago, but until recently I was the only one who played it, Balai not owning an xbox, Tetris currently having Internet issues and Myke either asleep in his impenetrable cocoon or not caring. A few days ago me, Myke and Tetris found ourselves all contained within the same four walls, we talked, naturally, but upon mentioning the existence of this demo my hard drive was briskly confiscated by a heavily sweating Tetris.
The boy, you have to understand, only has three different dreams stocked within the movie cinema of his head for his mind to play when he sleeps. One involves him flying a Harrier jet and playing a guitar solo at the same time, the second is similar but features an X-wing in lieu of the harrier. We don't talk about the third dream.

The drive was appended to the very top of Tetris' box and quickly transported him to a place of glee. I'm rarely excited by a flying game, I have nothing against them but they all seem very same-y to me, yet I found this demo very enjoyable. This is probably due to the inclusion of an experience bar, one of my many Achilles heels. Myke, on the other hand, said that assistance off mode (cinematic camera mode essentially) was cool to watch, but the game in general didn't make his happy place... well, happy.

The demo did bring back very fond old memories as well, of better days, of days when a game called Freelancer was installed upon my computer. If you ever see this game in a bargain bin and like things that are good I would strongly suggest giving it a whirl. There is currently a small contingent of us pushing to have a company server set up, and then start having "team building Fridays" where we would all play together. Also, from this point onwards, every day is now a Friday.

We sat around laughing

Them some cool lookin' claws, Wolverine, can I touch them?

Ah, Pepsi. A delight to my taste buds. I've recently got back from Sainsbury's and got some Pepsi on a deal, which is great in the current economical 'crisis'. In response to Iced's irritation at my use of the enter key, I will type the rest of this post without proper grammar, punctuation or the enter key: enjoy the eye-rape.

OK, I lied, that is hell-hard to do. My eyes were hurting just typing the damn thing! But yeah, the message was simple: Wolverine Origins: The Game looks pretty good. I'm also looking forward to the film, will post here for anyone that actually reads it my impressions of the film when I go to see it.
So, as I sit here now, with a bowl of peanuts and a distinct lack of beer, I bid you all - adieu.
