For one, I uninstalled Call of Cthulhu so I could play Devil May Cry 3 SE... Finally got it! I have been craving for it for years. Also, I started System Shock 2 from the start again. Lost my other saves, but I don't care. It's a great game anyways... and creepy as hell! The audio in some areas gives me the creeps even now... DMC3 is really great. Now at level 9, hacking and shooting the forces of hell is quite satisfying. I love the combos that you can pull off... I got a S ranking in level one too... level two is a bit difficult to a S rank. Got an A instead... I'll see what I can make of it...

About two weeks ago I made a deal with Lewuz. I'm making a review for Dead Reefs... got the game today. Played it until the tomb section. A key broke, so I'll have to find another or just get in there somewhere else... or use something else. The game sofar is pretty good, but not the greatest adventure game I have played. It would have been nicer, if it would have been a point-and-click game. The keyboard only controls are cumbersome to use.

Since I have a lot to do the next week, I'll try to play Dead Reefs alot this weekend...

I found a really interesting game on miniclip. (I haven't visited it in months or even years...) It's like Guitar Hero, but with piano. Since I am taking piano in the music school, it will kinda come in handy. It's not a whole piano or anything, but a really great idea for a flash game...

See ya around!

weird... every post this far has included RE4... well, just letting you know that I have started RE4 again, but the good news is, that I found my lost saved game, so I am currently in chapter 5-2 or 5-3... it's the second fight with that army guy, Jack what'shisface. trying to finish this godforsaking game, so that I can go back to UT2004.

Well guys and gals... if anyone noticed that my now playing list was updated with Half life 2. It was a short time only though... cuz I finished it in what... 3 days? And It was great. Got past the part in Ravenholm, where I left it, right to the end of the game. And guess what, I wanted to stay in the Half Life world... but sadly no. I loved everything about the game. Especially the last few chapters. The graphics were still great then, they're still great now. The last chapters reminded me some Matrix and Halo. Mostly Matrix. It's just too bad that once the game was over, I closed the game and realised that this was it. I didn't have Episode One or anything. Maybe I'll get it sometime this-or-next year. Or... the Orange Box sounds tempting. But because I don't have drive space I will be forced to buy some more, or buy an long dream that I've been having. A XBOX 360. The games that I want for the console are Oblivion, Bioshock and the Orange Box.... but wait... I want also the WII... because of Zelda... not just TP, I could play WW too... oh god... I want them all...

Started to play RE4 again on my PC. From the start... yes... I was somewhere around the 5 chapter, when I took it off... damn me... well... something else payed the price too for playing the game again. I've been having tough times at school... so I have to pull myself back up. I know... last week of the semester and all... but I want to do it....

for me.

Resident Evil 4 is a game, that I have been wanting to get my hands on for over a year now and finally I got it! (tänud torukatele! :D) Since I borrowed a controller from my friend, I was in heaven. There is also a mouse support patch thingy, but I want to test out with a controller. I didn't want to test the keyboard action too... that would have been fustrating. I also haven't played a good shooter, only stealth usually or puzzle (Abe) games. Morrowind has also been quite fun with the archer mod in Suran and enhanced sneaking (time of day and stuff...)

Anyway, Resident Evil 4 is one of the best shooters that I have played in years, partially thanks to the graphics (thank you Euro version!), but the story is so far very interesting and the action is hard, but rewarding and pretty darn satisfying. I'm not going to start explaining the story, I'm sure everybody who is interested in shooters knows it. Although the graphics are nice, they aren't so good like the GameCube version had which is pretty dissapointing. And the cutscenes are pretty weird too, sometimes they are really good, sometimes weird-looking. The gameplay is sometimes tough because I started on the normal difficulty setting (didn't want the easy) and it also may be the fact that I haven't played this type of game since I played Cold Fear. It remines me of Cold Fear in a good way, the controls are similar so there's no re-learning, which is a good thing. Don't know if the graphics are better than Cold Fear has, but anyway, they're pretty darn similar. Speaking of difficulty, I died 6 times in the game that have been memorized by the game, maybe I died about 9 times. I would say that 3-5 times I got my head de-capatated by a chainsaw like in On the Spot (pretty much every demo ended by a chainsaw massacre). Although it's pretty horrible, it looks good. The physics are similar to Half Life 2's, it really suprised me, how realistic it is. You shoot a enemy in the leg, he drops down. You round-house kick an enemy, he go's flying through the air where you face with Leon.

I played about 3 hours of the game non-stop. Got past the Church, I'm near the lake, where a boat sequence has to come. I'll play this game to the end for sure!

Bye.

One thing i'd like to point out, yes I know I don't write too much here, but hey, I'm sometimes lazy like hell... :D i love long writings like that :D getting a groove on with Daft Punk at the moment... what a great song... Around the world. Well, I even don't know what to write here... i've been thinking alot these days... about my life so far and how will it go on. many of my friends know, what they are going to do 3 years from now, but I know nothing... sometimes i even wish i just wouldn't exist... my life seems so pointless... but hey, some's life is even more pointless that it shouldn't be mentioned... maybe i'm one of them, don't know.

oh, something to write about; i'm going to Võru at the 14 of august. saxophone camp again. sometimes i think that i should just quit, because i just don't want to play anymore... some of my friends say that i should carry on... if Võru doesn't up my spirit, nothing does, so i'll probably quit. the day before yesterday wen't to the Days of Märjamaa... a marching to the stage and two songs there... one was a good song that i played a year before in Põltsamaa, pretty darn fun.

some months ago i started writing a weird novel thingy, that is somehow based on Lovecrafts stories, but it is mainly my own fiction. it's not a copy of some of his stories, although some may seem similar.

it's pretty interesting that none of the estonian writers can't write a good horror novel/story. i'll try to make something, something exciting. it's a big chance that it will fail, but i'll see...

Hiya, its been over 2 months since my last blog, so I think it is a good time to do another.

First of all, I'm pretty dissapointed with the GameSpot crew and Aaron Thomas, for making a bad job on Tenchu Z... It deserves a lot better. They should have given the review task to someone experienced with the stealth genre. Aaron is pretty much a newcomer.

Second, I started playing Thief: Deadly Shadows again, just to play it through with a dual-analog controller. It seems pretty good, by now. Also, of course i'm playing with expert, only bad thing is that in the city sections the difficulty is turned to default.

I'm also going to the Laulupidu... whats that in english... Songparty??? That Estonia is doing after every four years or so. I'm going with the orcestra there, so maybe i'll be on TV :D Anyway... back to thieving I guess...

This is a little something that I really take off of my back... :

 The pain is just so unforgetable... well... this isn't that big of a deal... compared to my heart pain (not-literally speaking, mental pain).                 In school somewhere around my first lesson I got some pain on my leg because of some unknown stuff...   

This wasn't actually what I wanted to talk to you about.

1.) I dreamed this night, that I was sacrifiest to the gods by some mayan looking peaople on a big mayan-looking pyramid... I have been having some ideas since I read the books from Lovecraft to do a story of my own... "starring"  pretty much a mayan looking people... maybe the dream was a signal to get on with it? Well... I'll try to start with it this night. Lets see what will come out of it. Maybe I'll post some clips here on GameSpot too.

2.) The other dream I had was about me and a girl I had a crush on last year. It made me almost cry. It made me understand that I'll not see her or any of the good friends I have in the last class anymore... And it made me understand that I don't know anymore who I have a crush on... three people on the list...

3.) Sometimes I feel that I need a shrink... not long ago I had even some mental problems that I wanted to overcome on my own... and it seems I have... for now... the problem was that sometimes I started to hear weird things. For example when someone talked to me, yelled at me and closed a door behind him/her, I heard It two times or even more times louder and even faster than It actually was... and there was one incident when my brother (little one) jumped across the room and I heard it like a house was torn down. I think it was a mental illness.  Every time I had it, it didn't just come a a random moment, it somehow speeded up my hearing... like a sound of a car starting to speed up... and the same thing with it when it stopped...

When clicking to the updates section, my bloodpressure started to raise because of exitement. Finally something new from the guys that are creating Jericho. A great developer interview that specifies more the story of the game and some hundreds of times seen movie, when the squad are facing a old crusader-zombie. The second trailer was great too, loved every bit of it, but kinda sad because of the woman that presumably gets killed... I hope that doesn't happen in the game, but it is very rare that it wont... I'll wait for the game passionately, because I really love Clive Barker's works. The first impressions article was impressive too and it is great to see so many people excited about the game. Wow... a half naked ninja, stealthy too :). Lesbians in a game I'm interested to... thats a first one...

The second thing... lewus, I'm playing Cold Fear again, and planning to finish it, because I want to be ready for Resident Evil 4, which I'm getting... Don't know, I'm really loving it... The second game is Paper Mario for the N64. What a nice game so far... Love every bit of it :) Review up too! I promise :) I have always wanted  to play a good RPG, Morrowind was a bit too... weird...

 

Woohoo, my brother bought a NEC DVD writer!

Now I can play games that I couldn't :)

 

Camp was great too, great fun...

I played the clarinet there too... Triinu and I

switched instruments for the rest of the week, so I'll play

the clarinet. 

 

I got to the finals of the saxophone gig... Woohoo...

I really don't want to play there........ 

Thank god, the competition is over!  It went pretty well, I got second place on the third age group. The first was a girl from somewhere, don't know, but she played really well ;)
The only complaint is about the judges is that the third place owner was bad, and my friend was better than her... Don't know why she got third... my friend should have gotten it...
Now he has somesort of a depression, and he sayed that he will leave the music school, but will play in the orchestra....
Aww... Jaan tule tagasi!!! :cry:
