My internet connection is on the blink so I won’t be around for a few days. But, it kind of works out since it’s the birthday weekend I’ll be too busy with other things anyway. I might even get in a bit of skiing on Monday. Yay!

Well, till later then.

Christophe Gans, talking about the upcoming Silent Hill movie.

For a lazy director, like the one who directed Doom, Silent Hill would be too big of a piece to swallow.

From 1up.

I spent far to long today looking for a copy of Empire at War – every store I stopped at was sold out. Now considering that each store only had one or two copies extra after preorders I guess it’s no surprise they were all gone. However, with the help of my new best friend ‘whatshername‘ over at EB I was able to track one down – which was great because I wasn’t feeling all that well and really needed to get back to the pad (but that’s a whole other story). I even got one of those Death Star desktop ball things. I wonder if the Star Wars geeks will be buying them off of Ebay in a few weeks.

So, I quickly got the game installed – started her up – got notified of a patch (patch details) – got that installed – then finally got into the game. I started my campaign as the Empire, because as Mike would say, I get all the darkside points. I just felt that crushing the Rebels would be a good time… Is that so wrong?

Overall the game is great, having played the demo I already had a feel for the game play so I was able to just jump right in and play. To put it simply, if you like RTS games and Star Wars then you better play this game. It’s a good game chock full of all things Star Wars. If you need more convincing – grab the demo via bit torrent.

nuff' said.
