Hey All

If you were wondering where i’ve been the last few days, I decided to take some time out from super hi graphics console and pc gaming, shoot em up, bang bang, and try something a little more strategy based.

Galaxy Online is in Alpha stage at the moment( and it shows in some places heh). It is free to play (there is a “mall point” system which you can use to aid your expansions, but it isnt “necessary”), online, and did I mention “free”? =p

The graphics leave much to be desired, however it is not the point of this game. Strategy, numbers, patience, timing, are things that will aid you more with this one.

“Top down” view of your “Galaxy” ( what the game calls “Galaxies”, are really more “solar systems”), it is not so much “TURN BASED”, more then time based. It will take time to build your buildings, more so as you upgrade them, and it will take time to travel to other systems.

Insurgency is another steam game, to be precise, a mod of Half Life 2.

Insurgency pits two teams (the americans and the insurgents) against each other in an ultra realistic bloodbath for control of ‘zones’ within the current theatre of combat. Infantry only, a single burst from an AK74 will drop someone dead, and grenades and RPG’s leave your ears ringing and deaf for a short period of time. Bullets go thru some surfaces, allowing some sneaky strategies to be employed, but overall, Insurgency is one hell of a fun, addictive, realistic, true to life first person shooter that tests teamwork skills and situational awareness, and of course, your shooting skills.

The weapons have no computer aided sights, its all manual, and ironsighted/scoped.

It has a pretty active australian community, roughly half the size of ETQW, and players can always be found on servers.

I’m a huge fan of the game and genre (realistic fps), and I highly recommend it to all of you.

Hey guys, just blogging here to fill in my disappearance for the past 2 months.

Basically the main thing for this trip is my Brother’s Wedding.

Starting from the left, there’s my Sister, Sis-In-Law, Brother and finally me.

After the wedding I set off to find myself a job and somehow landed a job as a bartender.
And that’s how I spent my last 2 months.
Oh, and here are some pictures.

Here’s Johnny!

Here’s Johnny’s drinking buddies.

That’s all I am gonna tell for today.
Until next time, IPX.
