*fanboy drool*

It’s about time! as they jokingly say themselves when they announced it in Korea yesterday(I think there were many casualities of people fainting from joygasm).

It will still be awhile until it’s here as with all Blizzard games they want to take their time to ensure that the game is as polished as possible which is one of the reason I’ve always adored games from them. I’m surprised by how long they were able to keep the game a secret, at the end rumours were all pointing towards a Starcraft mmo so bravo Blizzard!

The game doesn’t have any new races, just the classic Terran, Protoss and Zerg although I wouldn’t be surprised that Blizzard announce the day before release “Oh and by the way, we have a fourth race!”

The screen shots look awesome but they also don’t look all that different from the original game apart from being in 3d now.

There is a Gameplay video coming to their site soon, I’ll put it in here once it arrives.

*fanboy drools some more*

Category: My Thoughts

I’ve started working again, it’s a rather tough physical work that starts in the early morning so I haven’t had much chance to post in here.
I spent the first month after getting back home with my parents sick…lucky me, I went to the doc and he said I had asthma so I’m on medication now that I have to keep taking, luckily it’s free in Iceland because the government pays for it.

I got my summer vacation payment from my old workplace a hefty sum of about 220.000 isl kroner or $3500 so I have tons of money and I’m thinking about whether I should buy something or just save it for a rainy day, perhaps next years DO.
Gaming related, I’ve started playing Crackdown again after the new Downloaded content became available, That game is always fun although it only holds a limited appeal.

Halo 3 beta starts tomorrow, I don’t know if I’ll have any time to take part just yet, work isn’t making it easy, I’ve also been working Saturdays the past two weeks.

I ordered the Spider-man 3 game yesterday, the game has been getting mediocre reviews because of some bugs and bad camera but I’m willing to look past it for a chance to be spider-man. I haven’t seen the movie yet but I’m gonna try to get to the cinema asap.

More later.
