Hi guys,

I have been too busy for the last few weeks. My HSC and CET cl@sses have started and they are for 7+ hours everyday. Add some time for traveling to those 7 hours. This summer is probably the worst summer in my life. No time to play, visit GS, etc. Moreover to make thing worse, we have tests every Sunday and believe me, those tests are too hard for me.

Here's what I did in the last few weeks-

Games Update-

Got some new games and a demo.

  1. Frontlines: Fuel of War
  2. World in Conflict
  3. Frets on Fire
  4. Grid Demo

Frontlines: Fuel of War-

It's a surprisingly good game. Not the best, but really good and worth the price. The graphics are good and about the story, well I cannot say anything about the story because (you may find this weird) I don't watch the cut scenes. Haven't tried out the MP yet because of lack of time and some other reasons.

There are some problems that I faced with the game. Like, either its highly un optimized or I am the only one with the problem. I can run Crysis without any problems on med-high settings at an average 35 FPS. But this game, it runs at 20 FPS average even at medium settings and at resolution 1024x768. Anyone else faced this problem? Rest all fine about the game.

Overall, I am quite impressed the game. Everyone must try it and to make it better, its super cheap in India. Still the game is not comparable to Call of Duty 4.

World in Conflict-

Now what can I say about this game? Its an uber RTS. So good graphics, gameplay and real good story (I am watching all the cut scenes in this game). Moreover, it runs perfectly fine on my PC again on med-high settings. Again, I have not tried its MP because I never really understood it. I mean, we cannot play 1 vs 1 match in this game? Does it need to be co-op always? And no time to understand all that for now. No more words to say about this game as all know about it.

Frets on Fire-

Anyone here tried this game? If not, let me tell you. It's a game like Guitar Hero 3. Made by fans I think. Some people like it and some people hate it. I don't know any reason to hate it. Main thing is, I like it and I am having fun with it. If you like such games, you should try it too.

The best part is, the game is free and you can download it from HERE. Just 34 MB. It comes with 3 songs. You can get more songs to it by making your own songs using the in built song editor or simply download some song packs. Awesome game, but try it at your own risk because you may get addicted to this game like I am.

Grid Demo-

Grid is all about good graphics, physics, everything that a racing game should have. The graphics and physics are unbelievably good. It's a simulator + arcade type racing game. The demo had 3 race modes, which I never cared to read and hence never understood. Two of them are races I think one race cl@ss and the other is muscle cl@ss. The third one is the drift cl@ss.

The game feels so real. Feels like we are driving a real car and the people watching us playing feel like watching a real race on TV. The best part of the game is, although it has so good graphics and physics, it is not at all heavy on the system. Runs on high settings on my PC. Well not maxed out, but high settings and solid FPS is pretty good for my PC.

Shopping-

This summer, I did a lot of shopping for myself. Bought 9 T-Shirts lol. Did some major PC upgrades too.

First of all, I got a new mouse long back (I think start of this month May). It's the Logitech MX-518 Gaming mouse. It has an awesome sensor of 1800 dpi and very good grip for me. And yeah, its huge. Compared to my normal mouse, its very big. On the first day, I was not able to control it. It was too fast for me. So fast that I was not able to click on the close buttons of the windows.

Second PC upgrade is a major one. Here is a picture of what I got-

Yeah, they are 2 PCs. Included in the picture are-

2 x Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.40 GHz

2 x Abit IP35-e Motherboard

2 x Corsair VX450W PSUs

2 x G.Skill 2 GB RAM

1 x Cooler Master Elite 330 cabinet

Not included in the picture are-

1 x Western Digital 750 GB SATA HDD

1 x Western Digital 320 GB SATA HDD

3 x Asus DVD RW

1 x Tag USB Hard Disk cage

Now you may be wondering why 2 PCs. It is 1 for me and other one for my Dad.

Life Update-

As mentioned earlier, I am too busy with all my cl@sses and stuff. Still managed one day out. Although I have no interest in sports especially cricket, I went to watch the IPL match at Wankhede Stadium last Wednesday. The match was against Mumbai Indians and Mohali Super Kings XI. What an awesome match! Tension of losing till the last ball. Finally we lost the match but I enjoyed the experience. So many people cheering, and I had never ever seen a cricket match in stadium except Cartoon Network cricket 6 years back.

I am planning to go for the finals of IPL on 1st June at the D.Y.Patil stadium. Hope I get time and the ticket. Also almost forgot to tell you all that I am enjoying eating a lot of mangoes. So much mangoes that I am sure that I have put up some weight.

So that's all for now. I am a bit too busy for now and I think I will be free by 10th or 11th of June.

So bye all and enjoy gaming!

Some people just don't have opinions. Like polya.
polya must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could polya possibly have for not rating a single film?
