flotsam and nonobvious

I don't like to spam communities where I'm a member, but I just wanted to mention that I have a couple other websites that you might be interested in:

flotsam is my linkdump site, where I post things that amuse or horrify me.

nonobvious is my comic site. I make the comic using the comic generator at bitstrips.com, and it is semi-autobiographical.

Check 'em out, if you have the opportunity. You might find something you like.

That's all.

That's It?

That was pretty much my reaction when I finished CoD: World at War. The message box popped up telling me I'd unlocked the achievement "War Hero", and I thought "That can't be right. That's the achievement for completing the game."

And it was.

I've been disappointed by CoD:WaW. The solo campaign failed to inspire any excitement, I didn't care about any of the characters, didn't much care about any of the missions. In contrast, playing CoD4 was like starring in a motion picture. I loved the storyline, and was genuinely taken aback at the death of any of the main characters. Hell, I started a new game the day I finished the first one. That was Game of the Year material.

I didn't expact WaW to be as good as CoD 4, but I surely didn't expect it to be this weak.

Moving On

I finally reached the point where I'm tired of Fallout 3. I can't begin to count how many hours it's taken, but I'm there. I finished the game (again) last night, pulled the disc out of the drive, and put it back into the stack with the rest of the games.

I was lucky enough to play some Team Fortress 2 with some of the guys from 2old4BS the other night, and had a great time. It's the first chance I've had to try it out. The gameplay is like a Special Ed version of COD: Fewer buttons to worry about, simpler objectives, and just not as intense. It's COD on valium -- just my speed. I stuck with the Pyro and the Heavy, and did all right.

Now I can crack open my shiny new copy of COD5:World at War.....

F3Anon

Hi there, my name is PAgent, and I'm addicted to Fallout 3.

I've played as a hero, and am now playing a character that is pure evil.

I've hit 41/50 achievements, and should get at least one more by the time I finish this game up.

I ceased to have any kind of a life several weeks ago.

Lo, I have become the Vaultdweller.

Play Doom I in your browser

Man does this bring back memories. I played HOURS of Doom on my 386DX. It's one of the only games that actually ran correctly on that P.O.S. I used a joystick and keyboard and could fly through that game. In fact, if my wife was watching over my shoulder, she'd get motion sick.

Now, you can play Doom in Flash. And it looks just like the original. Amazing.
