Hahahahahahahahahah.... nah It's alright

I wouldn't have to buy it again (come on, 11€ is nothing compared to the retail price in Switzerland) if it wasn't for this asshole whom I lent my UT3 DVD almost a year ago (IIRC). Then he moved to Sofia and 'accidently' took it with him.

hahaha i bought UT3 too some months ago. i bought this because ..... aeh ... its a nice engine.... wait theres a game inside???

And a bunch of other albums... liquidation of a really cool Extreme Metal store here in Zürich R.I.P Knochenhaus.

Got myself a new mouse (G5) to replace the 1$ one I had from when I was broke.

Oh and I also bught UT3 and Empires total war, but I think I played both the exact same amount of time. (which is 30 minutes).

I've spent more time playing tower defence http://www.towerdefence.net/games-204-Warzone.php

Went to Lamington Road yesterday (Bombay's electronics/computer street)

Bought a DVI->HDMI connector, 1.5m HDMI cable so I can connect my old PC to the TV for the time being before I build a compact HTPC next week or so.. I have XBMC running on that PC and it's goooood.

Also bought a soldering iron, multimeter, wire, flux, couple of capacitors, transistors, resistors..I'll try building a small headphone amp in some free time (if I get some i.e). My first electronics DIY attempt..

Lets see how fantastic it'll be after 2 hours.

Far Cry 2 was great, despite a few missteps.

IMO it sucked since it was ALL the same. And everyone is hostile.

My sentiments exactly

I bought it this weekend also... all enemies are hostile, every mission is the same... novelty of the game world wears off fast... I am glad it was only $20. It doesn't feel like a game, more like a polished tech demo..

Not to turn into the Far Cry 2 defense force or anything, but I think it's a game you really have slip into, rather than brute force through missions. It definitely tests your patience and really does screw you over every chance it gets but that's sort of the crux of the game, I think. The survivability aspect of it really provides a unique experience; finding alternate routes, using the rivers instead of main roads, learning to avoid enemies instead of constantly confronting them. It can be easily overlooked if you get frustrated by that sort of shit though, and it's unfortunate, cause it really is a great game and did a lot of things really well.

Not to say it's infallible, I think what exists as the overarching sort of pattern of the game could have used more variety, and makes it easy to fall into a monotonous routine of mission grinding. But I think once you accept that the game really isn't about that, you can start taking in a lot of the emergent little crazy moments and situations that arise and really see what the game does best. It's a demanding game but it works in its favor in the end.
