Its been a while since I've last posted a blog post, mainly the reasons are that I have had a lot going on at school, work to do etc. so this post will catch all of you up to speed on what I've been playing.
First off, EMPIRE TOTAL WAR! I got this game last Friday as soon as my local Futureshop got it and I have to say it is the best strategy game I have played in my life (Granted that I haven't played each and single RTS, RTT, TBS, etc.) My computer handles this thing pretty well on Medium, but I have decided to upgrade parts such as my 8600GT up to a 260GTX+, change my 3GB RAM to a new 4GB set, and upgrade my PSU to a couple hundred more Watts. Soon after I'll build a brand new one, because those upgrades will be temporary. Heres' a screenie, granted its from the demo but who cares:

The game only has a few glitches and bugs that are quite annoying, but Creative Assembly said they are getting a patch to this game this week. Other than that, EXCELLENCE!
It would also seem that I have leveled up on Gamespot to 31 - Ippon which is some sort of Japanese martial arts score.
Thats it for now. Time to get addicted to Empire again. Back in a year or so (Exaggeration or not?).
