Been away for a week.
So, after a week without internet, I'm now back from my disappearance. Well I've got myself a new graphic card and we've disassembled the family computer, making me not accessable to the internet. I couldn't play a few new PC games before, but that time is now gone, I'm now enjoying the new gaming. I got a Gainward NVidiaGeForce 7800 GT 512Mb, it's the first time I've ever had an NVidia graphic card as I've always used ATi graphics. But this does looks satisfying... well that's probably because I've been using a two-years-old graphic card: Sapphire ATi Radeon X800 XL 256Mb.
We've also bought Norton 360 and Windows Vista: Home Premium. I didn't install the Vista into my PC. The 360 though has now another 365 days to go until it expires. About the Vista, all I really like is its new theme... icons and those stuff, the AeroGlass; and that it's DirectX 10 compatibility. Well I can be wrong as there're many program experts out there, this is just my opinion... yet. One day, I might regret. I installed Microsoft Office 2007 Ultimateinto my computer, just because I didn't want the old Microsoft Office 2000; that was way out of date.
Apart from those programs, I also installed Supreme Commander and Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. To be honest, I really like Supreme Commander more than C&C 3, even though many people say that C&C 3 is much better. It's because I think that it's not so innovative, it's like just that the graphics has been enhanced and with some newunits and gears, again it's my point of view. Supreme Commander however, is much more spaciouss and... read my review instead.
Despite the fact that I've got new games and graphic card, as well as some other softwares.My friendalso bought me a new game for my X360: Lost Planet: Extreme Conditions. And it's not because he's a nobhead, he owes me a lot of money as he keeps asking me for money in school. I've stopped giving him money now, probably I've realized that I've been inane. I continued to give because he said he would pay me back somehow, so I just gave him some more until it reached to about £40, and he payed me back with a game. Heh, this game is quite alright, I like its online play. I hear that many people saying this game has a very short single-playing mode. Well I just started yesterday and played for about 2 hours... lets see how long it takes for me to finish this off.
After my one week disappearance, I've discovered the trailer of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare; I'm looking forward to that. I really enjoyed Call of Duty 2, I can admit that it was the best FPS game I played last year. It's the multiplaying games that mainly makes FPSs so good, as single-player mode ends quite fast... always. So I hope the fourth duty has some cool new missions and a longer lasting single-player, and don't forget the awesome multiplayer; ZyoX will return... with his sniper.
And I can finally see that Pokémon Diamond has its release date revealed, not precise though, July.
My waits are getting closer. I've been waiting for: a new graphic card, Supreme Commander, Pokémon Diamond, Linkin Park - Minutes To Midnight andThe Saga of Seven Suns BOOK SIX: Metal Swarm since February. Now they're finally getting closer, and some of it I've already got. Surely, more things will come during this gaming year, such as Unreal Tournament III and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. But I've actually thought of not buying the Wii. It doesn't have many good games, that's why. The only ones which I believe are the best are The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. All the others are kind of mediocres, except a few ones. They're more likely to be familygames.Overall, it doesn't have many games which I really like.
14 days to go until Minutes To Midnight releases, and I might not buy it.
Diamond will get its ass on the shelves on July; and Metal Swarm... it should release on June, but delayed to December. I just found that out. Andit's very, very disappointing.
I've also thought of getting S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl. But not sure. Is it good?
Anyway, that's it for this time.
Take care.
