shooters!

although I consider myself a strategy games (real-time or turned-based alike) junkie, I would play the occasional shooter, if its hyped up enough.

of course I have played some of the famous ones like doom, quake, unreal, half life and by extension, counterstrike. my all time favs would be quake 3 and unreal tournament. the last completed one was borderlands and now playing half life 2 from the orange box package.

quarter way thru and so far its fun with the air boat to pump up adrenaline and mowing down zombies with the gravity gun etc.

but. I kinda missed the borderlands mindless fragging. the best part for me about these shooters is not the fantastic story which half life 1 and 2 have, but the fact that I can shoot enemies with an array of weapons even though its virtual.

of course I would finish up the game (and hence the story) not just for the sake but to really have a bit of zombie fun. while waiting for the terrans to arrive and frag zergs and protoss in the starcraft universe. yum!

am I on some sort of crack?

as in some sort of drug that is caffeinated? I haven't drank too much coffee today and yet I'm still up and about despite not sleeping much the last 2 days.

I wonder why and really hope I won't feel too sleepy this whole week.

and spain is the new world cup champs!

can't help feeling sad for the oranje tho because both side fought equally hard.

a match full of vicious tackles and fouls (as a result, more yellow cards than corners), and tons of missed chances, this game was watched by millions of fans and punters worldwide.

some to see which of them will finally dirty their hands on the cup. some others to see if paul was right (and he is! albeit in extra time). and the remaining just to soak in the once every 4 years sports fiesta.

and now back to sleeping properly. *yawn*

the worst birthday eve, ever!

1st the whole day clouds and rain dampened the outdoor plans. then, the dinner wasn't good and the usual safe favourite (satay) was relatively uncooked. please don't let us have late night toilet runs....

lastly, the albicelestes are kicked out of the world cup embarrassingly by the germans with not a single reply to the 4 goals.

but it's ok. messi & co will be back with a vengeance in brazil.

happy independence day america.

the cruel game that is called football

while parts of the world are still "shocked" by the brazilian exit from the world cup last night, the rest of the footballing world are more shocked at the hand of suarez that indirectly allowed uruguay to progress further in the tournament, setting up an odds-wise david vs goliath between holland and uruguay.

of course we all know that david was the victor in the story but will uruguay do what their "stronger" south american brethren couldn't? why didn't the referee award that goal anyway? why couldn't gyan suck it up and convert?

football, more drama than korean sobs.
