Contrary to the e-mails I have been getting, no it hasn't been the Notwork keeping me off of the beautiful land of the Internet. It was actually C&C Generals and Battlefield 1942. This managed to consume late Friday night and most of Saturday, wrapping me up in exciting gaming bliss. I don't say it as a bad thing, as I enjoyed playing some games that I wouldn't get to otherwise. If it wasn't for everyone playing for example, I would probably have not tried BF 1942, especially after my previous FPS experience. I would like to retract statements said, and restate that while Natural Selection nearly killed my enjoyment of computer games, Battlefield 1942 has restored faith previously lost. I could run around and shoot, jump in a plane (or man the gunner slot), drive a tank, ride side saddle in a jeep, and even drive a gigantic aircraft carrier ashore. And this was all ON ONE MAP. When a game like this comes up, I don't really pay too much attention to it, simply because I am sure it will find its way around the net and then fade away. Not only has it managed to stay on the radar, but it may even be something I make the full investment in. Yes, before you ask, we were playing a cracked version for LAN play only. Even with only 6-8 people it was rather fun, and the map didn't feel to big. I imagine once you get 15-30 in there it gets pretty crazy, and if you ever have all 64 slots filled, you are going to be in for one hell of a match. But, all this gaming was for Saturday since Sunday would be a long day up north.
I spent 90% of my time Sunday working and doing BAAS stuff. Lots of web stuff to design. Got home, had a good phone call, called it a night. I had planned to go into more detail, but sleep won out.
