Hah! So, second game related post in a row here. But still – I felt like saying something. Call of Duty 6th installment – Modern Warfare. Awaited so long, and finally here, though not without bumps and bruises (gimped pc version with no dedi servers, etc), but its not what I was going to write, as I havent yet got the chance to try multiplayer. What I wanted to express now is my awe of cinematic masterpiece that single player campaign is. Though short (some 6 or so hour on average) its just an amazing thrillride from start to end. And I’d say that it means something that even me, who usually finds single player campaigns boring as hell, found this amazing. Ranging from Siberian snows to Afghanistan desert to Washington, DC all in flames and including even snow mobile cache sequences. That paired with Zimmers original score it’s just epic.

Whats especially interesting that in lots of places you can see what inspired IW in making of this game. Take Gulag level with Price extraction for example – doesn’t that just strike you as a homage to Michael Bays “The Rock”? Especially the shower room. Or green smoke on top of White House to signal that your still combat capable to cancel bombardment?

Yup.

Oh, and also few wallpapers after the jump! Read more »

So, no news from here for a while. Im indeed still at good health and alive for that matter. But that doesn’t matter right now (as Dr. Rumack said).

In these last two (?) weeks the only mention worthy things are the fact that I’ve received my next years U2 360 tour tickets (though almost missed DHL courier) and they are beautiful. Probably worth mentioning that the guy who were delivering them said that it was a particularly busy day as whole city was full of those red envelopes. Well, good thing I guess. Though there still seem be to be quite a lot of available mid and high priced seats. But who wants a seat in such even!?

Oh, and while I’m at it – to those whom it may concern – youtube will broadcast this years last 360 show live from LA Rose Bowl stadium this Sunday (25th of october, 8:30 PT or in the middle of fuckin’ night *cough* 6:30 *cough* here). Also that concert will go to DVD. I guess yay for Christmas!

And on another news – still can’t seem to get warm after yesterdays photography covering an airsoft game. Though cold seems to be just small menace compared how awesome it all turned out. Also *knocks on wood* it seems I’ll be lucky enough to get through without cold this time. Anyway - photos here.

So.. YAY! Big fuckin’ yay! Yet another chance to see the awesome U2 360 show and sing my heart out. Just managed to secure my tickets for next years Frankfurt show in presale after google-translating my way through eventim (though I’ve studied German back in elementary school I remember shit, and in this case I wouldn’t trust my “I think it means…” sense this time). Yeah, well, its kinda almost year away, but it’s definitely smth to look forward to. Especially considering the awesome Commerzbank Arena and the fact that I’ve never been to Germany so far and most definitely the fact that its U2. Also as of now it seems ther’s quite a “few” of us going that way considering the maaajor fuckup that Helisnki and some other ticket sales were.

Well, in short term now its just wait and see when presale for tours final show in Coimbra (thats in Portugal fyi) will be announced. Would kill to see that, considering how amazing closing gigs have been so far for U2 (take Vertigo’s Hawaii gig back in 2006 as an example).

And well, looks like most of hard retooling and retheming are done here. Especially photo gallery. Now just to fill it up with photos once again. And then make a backup of it all. Juuust to be sure.

Welcome to… blerg, i wonder where ive seen this text before. So, yeah, my previous host just disappeared into nothingness with no notice or anything few days ago… Aaand, me being me and not having a single backup or anything (you know, real men don’t do backups).. Whell, you get the idea. The bright side is that no money or some other valuable intellectual property was lost. Just some random mumbling and such.
