Red Faction: Guerilla

As promised I would write a review about Red Faction: Guerilla. For those who are interested you can read my review here: Red Faction: Guerilla Review. I'm sorry for the short and summarized review but I simply don't have much time to write one. Please leave a comment of what you think about the review.

Need for Speed: SHIFT

Oh and I don't know why I all of a sudden have such high expectations of games but I played Need for Speed: SHIFT on a friend's computer. The graphics are insane but the race-simulation is simply too bad to be true. I would love to write a review about it but it's actually to bad to be reviewed in my humble opinion. Damn, I was laughing more than enjoying it haha!

Please leave a message in my blog, I'll comment yours as well!

After not having played any games at all for a long time, I have finally made a come-back. It took me a while but feels good already! So right now there is 1 game I'm keeping my eye on, and another one I'm going to enjoy real soon.

Call of Duty 6: Modern Warfare 2

Believing the giant hype behind Call of Duty 6: Modern Warfare 2 I started doing some research. After seeing several gameplay videos on YouTube and images on Google, I was really impressed. It looked so much like the previous Modern Warfare game but no, it was even better. Knowing I've played the previous game online pretty much, this one is a must for me! So after checking when the game was going to get released, I pre-ordered it immediately!

Red Faction: Guerilla

As a huge fan of any Red Faction game, I have been tracking Red Faction: Guerilla since the day it was announced. I had no clue about when this game was going to be released, not even that it already is released. So making my way from the train station to school, I met a friend that said how awesome the game was. He already had a legal copy of the game, so I immediately asked him if I could borrow it. At the moment of writing this blog the game is on the desk next to me, waiting to get installed and played! I'll keep you guys updated about how it is and even write a review about it.

Stay tuned, I will keep you updated!

Due to my new school (Education: Game Design) I was kinda forced to buy a heavy machine to work on. Not heavy as in weight, but heavy as in specifications and well.. this one pretty much is!

I've been searching for a decent ASUS, Acer, MSI, Toshiba, Fujitsu and even Packard Bell system. Until a friend told me about the fusion (or co-operation) between Dell and Alienware I changed my mind and searched around on the Dell website. The system I decided to buy is the Dell XPS M1730, yes it's a laptop and yes it's 50% Dell and 50% Alienware.. rawr!

These are the specifications:

CPU: Core 2 Duo T8300 (2,40 GHz)

RAM: 4GB (667 MHz, Dual Channel DDR2)

O/S: Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit

Screen: 17,0-inch UltraSharp

HDD: 320GB (2x 160GB RAID-0, 7.200RPM)

VGA: Dual NVIDIA 9800GT (SLI)

And uhmm the price.. about € 2000,- so it was pricey. But this laptop beats my current game computer in overall, so I'm really satisfied! The only thing that bothers me is the slow memory, 667 MHz isn't that great. The Windows score says 5,9 on everything except for the RAM with a 5,1. Might be replaced in the near future!

I don't know where to start but THANK YOU GameSpot! As you guys may have noticed, I got banned from GameSpot about 2 years ago giving up gaming or being into it. At this very moment my account got reinstated by Jody (THANK YOU! ). I don't have time to update my profile at this moment but at the end of this week I'll update as much as possible. When my account was still accessible I was 18 years old, now I'm turning 21 in December already.. :O So it has been a while!

I'm really looking forward in being active in the GameSpot community again and I will do my best to stay a life-time member!

Stay tuned, tons of updates coming soon! Hell, glad to be back!
