FEAR at its best

Hello hello!! Guess what I've been up to?! Playing F.E.A.R.! For the sake of things, F.E.A.R. is basically about this team the US government formed, to fight the supernatural, so to speak. FEAR stands for First Encounter Assault Recon. OR Fuck Everything And Run. The latter comes from gamers who have played the game before.

Anyhow, since it is a game about the supernatural, you'd expect something out of the ordinary to happen yes? That happens in this game, where besides the usual firefight, and the dark halls, and long gloomy corridors, and things moving without anything else touching them, and rooms splattered with blood, and half eaten skeletons, there is this one small little girl in a red dress that reduces special ops teams to their bones by turning their flesh to blood in an extremely painful process @_@



Said girl, is Alma and she just happens to be your character's mum in the first game. Say what?!? Go play the game to find out yourself. Or be a wank and google the story out.



Piff. Cowards!!

Anyhow, am in the process of getting FEAR 2 as I am typing this out and waiting for F3AR to be released later this year. Jeng3. Will it never end??




I must say however that this game beats all the other horror games out there right now. Why?? See in games like Doom and Deep Space, you're fighting aliens!! Things that die when you shoot them. So you get a big-freaking gun and start mowing them down later on, no problem. But in FEAR, YOU CAN'T KILL HER GAHHHHH. and she comes and goes like they do in those japanese films!




You may compare with other games that have ghosts in them like Silent Hill, but none of them takes the approach that FEAR does. The horror in the game never feels overused to the point you get used to them like in Deep Space. After the first two hours you come to expect something popping out of the corner and it does! In FEAR, sometimes you get an unknown origin, but nothing happens at all! GAH!!!

So to conclude, pick this game up when you have the time and immerse yourself with a game that has a wonderful storyline and a great way to reallyl get high blood pressure =D

Humour Me

Hey people! So! Update time, I think.

1. Brandon coming home soon.
2. Wern Pheng coming home soon. I think.
3. Glee starts on StarWorld this 12th May.
4. Nat is bored.
5. Nat wants to know WHAT SCANDAL BRANDON IS INVOLVED IN!! As announced by Mun Li on the tagboard over there in the sidebar.

Anyway, time for a dose of good humour!


You may all click to enlarge.


YEAAAAAHHH!! By the by, I am not fond of CSI: Miami's Horatio Caine. I mean, the number of times he takes off and puts on his sunglasses is insane. The way he manages to not poke himself in the eyes while taking off and putting on aforesaid sunnies is also absurd. He also stands real funny, like a strange version of the air-lean.

Hmm.

Yeah yeah lets DO something!
Like go Genting or Sunway Lagoon (or both)! XD Who's up for it?

On another note, Melbourne weather is weird. It was cold (below 17's) last week and now it's in 25's. I miss the cold! =[

ZOMG

You know our little piece about a doggy named Dawg, the one that Brandon so (un)helpfully finished off (sort of)?

Well, Kay's brother Kenny grabbed the idea and wrote the entire piece himself.

He now has a two-piece submission for this year's Gemala.

Evil Kenny.

CS STABBING!

I just HAD to blog about this when I read about it. xD

Story thanks to Sankaku:

A gamer accused of cheating in a net café game of CounterStrike narrowly escaped death after irate players skewered his head on a knife.

The incident began in a net cafe in China’s northern province of Jilin, when a group of youths apparently noticed a 17-year-old boy they had been playing CounterStrike with had been cheating by using a “wallhack” to allow himself to see through walls.

An argument began and a fight broke out outside the café. During the fight the cheater had a 30cm knife thrust into his left temple, with the blade only being stopped by the other side of his skull.

His assailants fled the scene after inflicting this injury, and he was quickly taken to hospital in an ambulance, still remaining conscious. Doctors decided to operate immediately.

Doctors explain the blade narrowly avoided major arteries, avoiding a devastating haemorrhage, and failed to impair his motor control despite passing through areas of the brain associated with such.

They were able to carefully extract the blade after opening his skull in an operation lasting some 10 hours, but noted that the knife was rusty – he has been placed under observation in case fragments of rust left inside his brain cause complications.

The net café in question was apparently popular with local youths as it did not require ID – government fear mongering about gaming culture has seen a variety of draconian restrictions placed on net cafés, so the café may be facing some unwelcome attention from the authorities.

Among the comments made to this (very hilarious):

Holy fuck! Those are serious gamers.

The guys who fled should have kept the knife, it would have made them run faster.

i'm surprised a doctor or nurse took this picture WHILE on the operating Table xD

Wow, hes obviously used to using 'Power Overwhelming'. How do you not die from like 8 inches of steel in your head??



.............

=D
