Today was a hell day, drove to work early got a few things done. Worked all day until 15:30 not even a lunch-break that would count for something. Got home from work, did a bit of valcuum cleaning and fed Pixie, had him out for a bit. He stepped into my eye, just a few moments later I rubbed my eye with a finger that had just been in contact with a jalapeno. OUCH! Played a bit of Call of Duty: World at War, I’m at the second to last mission and it’s so hard it’s unbelieveable. Took a drive down to Netto and did some shopping and now I’m here. Just speding some time before I’mm picking Sara and a friend up from the movies.

I think I’m gonna drive out to Lyngby where I’m picking the girls up, and listen to some Giantbombcast from E3 and have some soda.

Hi all.

I had to do it eventually, write some stuff from my everyday life. Saturday Sara and I were at a friends house to visit him and his wife and watch Le Mans. We watched the first 8 hours at their placce and then we headed home. Sara went to bed and I watched a bit more Le Mans until about 3 in the morning.

Gaming-wise I’m playing Call of Duty: World at War on PC and as you can see on the frontpage I’ve written a small evaluation of it. On the Xbox 360 I’m not really playing anything but I spun up Need For Speed: ProStreet last week, and I can’t say that I’m the least bit pleased. I’m gonna have to write an evaluation of that too. On the PS3 I haven’t really played anything on that for ages, but I might have to play som Metal Gear Solid as it hasn’t been out of the cover since I played it for 30 minutes when I first got it.

It’s already monday now and I have to go to work in under 7 hours and I’m not even sleepy.

Call of Duty: World at War

Gameplay: 5/5
This is going to be a very short paragraph, the gameplay just works, you get sucked in very quickly and lose track of time. The controls also just works like a charm and as they should. One thing I have noticed is that sometimes the enemies just stand there and aim at you but doesn’t shoot but if you get close enough, they charge at you.

Graphics: 4/5
The graphics in this game is very nicely done. The characters are very detailed and very well made. The landscapes the the open fields are “just” okay graphics wise but on the other hand the builds are outstanding and make the scenarios very claustrophobic that is just ace and makes your heart race a bit faster.

Audio: 5/5
Let me just start off with this, I don’t have a great sounds setup but it is a HIFI setup and the sound in this game is amazing. The soundtrack is brilliant and makes you feel like you’re in an action movie of some sort. The voice action is brilliant as well altough I can tell that some of the German soldiers and recycled material, this is not necesarily a bad thing but it’s just a thing I noticed.

Football Manager 2006

Wednesday, June 10th, 2009

After many years I’ve returned to one of my favorite gaming series Football Manager/Championship Manager. Not much have changed it’s still very fun and very time consuming. When I first got it for the exellent price of 27 DKR I thought to myself; “How much will I actually play this game, is it worth my time?”. Well after the first weekend I got my answer, I have played it for 15 hours pretty good considering I only had 48 in total to game in.

If you have some cash to splash and a lot of time on your hands this is a game for you. Oh and you have to like football by the way.
