The Gamer
- So how about this? I got myself all worked up over my chatpad not working with the wireless headset. Probably the next day it was working, and I figured wow I am a schmuck for complaning soooooo much about that, luckily last night it did NOT work, so clearly something is up, and I am not insane.
- I finally passed the end of Act III in Gears of War for Windows - only 2 acts to go
- I finished Pirates of the Caribean: At World’s End, to add to my 100% complete list. Soul gathering was the most annoying part. It isn’t hard, just time consuming. It took about 16 hours total.
- I am up to level 40 in Kingdom Under Fire. I can see why the game gets some mediocre reviews, it really is alot of the same, and to get all the achievements is without a doubt going to be a complete grind. I however still enjoy the game and would tell everyone that might be interested to at least give it a rental and see what you think.
- The gamerscore challenge is over, as expected Pat2k9 nabbed the prize with a serious gain over all of us. I opened my big mouth and trash talked Kanone into beating my butt too - I did finish up with 4th place. Considering the time I have to game, and the games I have available - it wasn’t a bad placing I guess.
The Coder
- I continue to dabble with the code for TheLiveEye.com - still nothing obvious, really just trying to test out somethings to make it more stable, or more efficient, so far I am not sure I made any real progress actually.
- DaKing240 sent me some more ideas to expand on his contest site - which I added some of that stuff to the site, but it was mostly basic HTML and throwing some ideas out on the site to expand later.
- At work I have been essentially rebuilding the entire framework of our existing application - its proved rather fun, frustrating, and rewarding all at the same time - the first phase is almost complete after about 2 weeks.
- I did some coding for the not ready to announce project, which by the way will be officially announced and open for discussion soon.
The Person
- Another boring week for the non-gamer, non-coding section of this little update. I just did the normal things, spent time with the family, watched tv, etc.
- My DVR system died, so I missed Prison Break, rather annoyed about that
- Also due to the DVR issue, I once again missed the Sarah Conner Chronicles, I guess I am just not watching this show - if I miss too many episodes in the start of a show, I just never keep up with it - anyone else watching this?
- My wife got me interested in Dexter - so we rented the first season on DVD and watched that, it was interesting, not sure if I will upgrade to include showtime or just watch box sets when they come out yet.
