Archive for October, 2007National Novel Writing Month 2007Tuesday, October 30th, 2007Every November for the past few years I have been part of the National Novel Writing Month competition, held from November 1st at 12:00 AM until November 30th at midnight. The contest is simple: you must write an original piece of fiction, no less than 50,000 words. You may do some of your homework, like [...] The Orange Box: Half-Life 2: Episode 2Tuesday, October 30th, 2007OK, I am almost sure that I had to work harder to finish Episode 2 than what it took to beat either Halo 3 (easiest level) or the Dead Rising “true ending” (fighting the Colonel atop the tank). This was plain frickin hard. The Portal ending was a bit on the annoying side, but it [...] Beautiful KatamariSunday, October 28th, 2007It is a rule that the greatest games every made are usually based on a very simple premise, so it doesn’t take a genius to “get” it. For example, Tretris, all you need to know is that the blocks are falling and you need to try to complete horizontal lines. Or Sudoku, where all blocks [...] Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T2: 4GB of on-board memoryWednesday, October 24th, 2007DPP just posted a Sony press release announcing the newest camera in the DSC-T series. The DSC-T2 is 8 megapixels, has image stabilization and 4 GB of on-board memory. This means you will not need a memory card unless you want it specifically as a backup. I owned the original DSC-T1, it was a great [...] Today is Blog Action DayTuesday, October 16th, 2007I find it sad that we are living in a world at war, where we are killing each other because of the religion we follow, or to make a buck, or because of arbitrary lines drawn in the sand. With all this killing, sickness and conflict, the Nobel Peace Prize went to somebody that made [...] PortalSunday, October 14th, 2007Well, it’s done. According to my save game, thats almost 5 hours of game play. This of course doesn’t count the many reloads, so it was at least twice that. How was it? I am ready to call this game the coolest thing I have played on the Xbox 360 this year. It was way [...] The Orange Box + new HDTVSunday, October 14th, 2007I don’t understand what was harder to believe: that we were able to walk into Best Buy at noon on September 25 and spent less than 5 minutes to buy Halo 3, or that on our first attempt to buy the Orange Box, three days after launch there was not a single copy of the [...] The Don of NYCSunday, October 14th, 2007Well, this is as close to “done” as I am going to be able to push this game. I have finished the main storyline, all of the side missions and even the extra missions available as downloadable content. The problem is I still got four achievements to go, and I honestly don’t see myself going [...] Price increases for domain registrationsFriday, October 12th, 2007Thanks to new weasel fees from ICANN, you are going to start seeing price increases from most domain registrars, including myself. On the average you will see our prices go up by about one dollar. Here are some of the new prices: For more details, please visit Gopedro.net. Halo 3 Matchmaking + Co-Op modeTuesday, October 2nd, 2007Once I managed to beat the game in the easiest difficulty level possible, it was time to start playing it again, this time to collect achievements. This means playing it at the normal difficulty level, which is pretty much above my head. Alex Esotérica, as usual, was more than ready to hit Co-op mode with [...] |
