TFC has taken over my life (well, as far as the computer is concerned)! I sometimes forget that there is actually a single-player mode to it, called Half-Life! TFC in the morning, TFC in the evening. I’ve probably played about 15 hours of TFC this week. I still basically suck, but I get a kickass kill every now and then. I am usually an engineer- it gives me so much power building sentry guns! And that kill Snake was talking about was pretty good… but he left something out- I killed him with a grenade and then immediately got another guy with my shotgun! As much as I like the HWGuy’s assault cannon, he’s just too damn slow! I prefer a good old engy, soldier, or spy any day.
I have also been whipping out some Doom2, of course. I have been concentrating on HacX, Marines, and Slaughterhouse custom WADs. Slaughterhouse comes with one new map but has no enemies. I have been fixing that. It just has too good sounds and graphics to pass up. But, mainly, I’ve been playing Marines. It’s short but good. To go along with the FPS swing, I also eliminated some blue-blooded Nazis in Wolfenstein.
Due to boredom, I almost played Multiplayer Diablo on battle.net then stopped, remembering that it SUCKS! Instead, I played some DX-Ball2 (it seems futile to ever finish it) and Solitaire (I said I was bored, okay?).
I haven’t gotten my RAM yet, but I’m sure that it won’t work on my crappo-rama PC either.
Notice that we never mention The Sims anymore?
