Just got back from seeing Jumper.

Pretty good actually, except for the crappy and abrupt ending...

The South Park reference in todays weekly update made me laugh.

See the pachinko part.

Dance was awesome. Except for some stupid middle aged people who kept knocking on the windows next to where me, my gf, and a couple friends were. So we went out and told them to go away, and they started calling us sluts and childish. Sure, they're in their adulthood working for a telemarketing company trying to ruin a High School dance, very mature.

And, I love taco bell's baja blast.

Yeah, jumper was pretty good. I went with some of my nerd friends for one of the guys birthday party. Twas pretty phun.

And I enjoy spawning live zombies, citizens, Breen, and headcrabs in portal then blowing the crap out of them with an RPG.

Got 2S, 2S, 3S, and 2S in my Foreign Extemporaneous debate rounds. 1 is highest, and S is highest sub-rank.
Pretty good for my third time, I guess.

I just bought Unreal Tournament 3. Vista is detecting it as an Early Childhood game =p. I think it's kind of funny, it made me smile when I looked at it.

Haha. Wowww. I wish all my games had that. Not that I would really need it, my parents don't really care much what games I buy but if they ever did, I'd love that.

And dang, 5.0? What are your specs?

BTW, I'm leaving for teh Bahamas tomorrow. Bye bye.

My computer specs are the result of saving up way too much money.

UT3 has a game rating of 1? Isn't that like, the same as the arcade games that come with Vista? Doesn't make any sense.

But yea, I got a kick out of the "Early Childhood: Blood and Gore, Violence, Language, Partial Nudity" Exactly what our early-staged children need.

HPDarkness · Post by **HPDarkness** » Sat Feb 23, 2008 8:40 pm

I think Vista just got the wrong info or something. I doubt the minimum is a rating of 1.0. More like 3.0.

They did an unbelievable job of optimizing it.

wait...wrong >_>

Heh, 5.3 for me; damn ram (its the lowest).

Without a computer that is like 3.0-4.0 I doubt you'd be doing anything but slideshow graphics. 3.0-4.0 you'd probably get average 20fps and 5.0+ 30fps plus. If you have a physics card you'd probably get a few more fps I'm told on UT3.

HPDarkness · Post by **HPDarkness** » Sat Feb 23, 2008 10:06 pm

Bah! I just updated the game and it fixed it. Looks like the required rating is 3.7.

Rest of the family is gone and I'm alone.

Couldn't find anything to do so I got out this Learn to Solder Kit mother got me for christmas like 2 years ago that I hadn't even opened yet.

I actually had some fun with it, other than getting burned by the soldering iron a couple times. Took awhile (frigg'n 4 hours, I'm slow), but I now have a European police siren (with flashing lights!)

I've been wanting to get a soldering iron for quite a while. My brother said they're a blast.

That is correct. The engine was and is amazing.

I, (X2 3800+ 2GHZ, 2GB RAM, 8600GT) can play with my brother (Sempron 1.0GHZ, 640MB, 6800) and it's pretty decent unlike H2V...with memory leaking problems etc.

My new flash game is going smoothly, thanks to SGEE.

Also, just 5 hours 'till snowboarding! woo.
