Kraizen's blog

I had a lot of laughs reading the articles at a website made by a guy who obviously has a good sense of humour.

What starsign are you? You can convert it into it’s Call Of Duty United Offensive equivilent.

For instance, myself, aquarius on cusp with capricorn.

Aqkarius Defining characteristics:
Aqkarians are, by nature, a rather scary bunch – they have a distinct habit of sneaking off and shooting you in the head at the very moment you least expect it, scaring the crap out of you. Mild pants-wetting is frequently the outcome of battling these silent but professional types, hence the term Water-Scarer.

Favourite weapons: Rifles like the Kar98k and Mosin-Nagant, however Aqkarians are fond of using scopes if it will result in frightening people.

Respected by: Most players, for their professional, methodical yet humble approach.

Loathed by: Leetos, Tauntus.

“Dedicated Counter-Strike players are possessed of an indomitable will, as evidenced recently in Russia where a team promoter tried to shake their nerves during a round of the first-person-shooter. In order to put his players off their game, he flooded the room with strippers who did their best to distract the players. However, these hardened Counter-Strike veterans have clearly given up on women long ago, and acted like they were not there.

Even exposing their bare boobs and sitting astride the computer monitor like had no effect. The gamers just kept on clicking like nothing was happening. To be fair, a number of the strippers look kind of haggard and drug-ruined, so they might be easier to ignore. In any case, however, this story is proof that if you play Counter-Strike for long enough, you turn into a psychopath. FOX News must be informed!”

For better or for worse, i’ve decided to legitimately aquire my Operating System, and have purchased a copy of Home Premium Windows 7.

After a download process, and a surprisingly simple USB boot drive creation program supplied by M$, I am sitting here wondering why the hell things havent started exploding, and random images of bill gates are not interspersed between the frames, I can assure you.

The new interface has some pretty decent features, but unfortunately after a quick look, it seems that they have hidden the real control of the operating system behind even more fancy menus :/

Ahh, but that my friends, is confirmation that Windows 7 is more than Vista with a new interface.

Quite simply, they have further removed the layers between amature and professional user, and this results in (for once) an interface that conforms to its design in both areas and for both users :)

Anyway, i’ll keep you all posted :)

Coming soon to a l4d game near you ;)
