Well, if there was ever a picture that epitomized my day this is it. Adriana went to Nice with Tati for the weekend, which means time for me to have boy's weekend. Now you would think I would be out enjoying the beautiful spring day (and it was a beautiful day) but not me. I settled down with pizza and computer games, trying to conquer the world one turn at a time.
As a kid I loved playing video games, but as I've gotten older I've not had the time or interest to play much anymore. But once or twice a year I go through a period of digging out the old CD's and firing up my stone age Windows computer. So, happy to say that on Saturday I wasted about 15 hours of my life and successfully conquered the world!

Scattered about the dead alien is his ray gun and its rare energy cells. Go easy on these - these are all you get!

You should never think that optimized setting cannot affect your game play...
Having floated about in the 1-for-1 kill zone of the score board for a while I did some tinkering and found I could raise the resolution of my game. The result was instant and consistent - my scores rose!

Strange but true... Film-makers, computer gamer makers, 3d modellers
and geeks the world over have a noise in their pants that murmurs, "YAY! Please shoot me, lady in a bikini. I wish to die with an erection."
BORING! Why not make this instead eh?

Tactical Ops: Assault on Terror was a mod for the original Unreal Tournament.
As a Apple Macintosh gamer (yeah, really!) this mod was our alternative to the PC's 'Counter Strike'.

In my opinion the 'Advanced Warfighter' series is much underestimated by the majority of battlefield FPS players. It comes in a third behind the likes of BF2 and Call of Duty series, which is a shame as it is a beautifully constructed and exciting game.
However, having said that - even the Ghost Recon purists have their issues with the game and would like to see a more conventional and contemporary battlefield environment rather than the slightly futuristic feel that GRAW introduced.

My name is Larry and I'm a Sims-oholic (also a Flickr-holic and a Wii-oholic) ... there, I feel so much better now that it's all out in the open :-)

Here's the scuttlebutt ... Ebenezer and Kathleen Goth are hosting a pool party at their palatial mansion ... the crafty matchmakers are throwing the affair so that Andre Deppiesse can meet Paula O'Conner, (woo-hoo, woo-hoo) ... the other guests are former public servants Kenneth Deppiesse and Christopher Long who are friends of Eb and Kathy ... Eb was begat by Balthzar who was begat by Rupert who was begat by Alexander who was of course the son of Mortimer and Bella ... if you're not a Sims-oholic, you don't know what the heck I'm talking about, do you :-)
Well, here we are - it's 8am on Saturday. My 24 hour game marathon started 8am Friday...
This is the score board from the very last game I played before I met my goal of playing through 24 hours.
And if I may say so myself, it was a bloody lovely score and a fantastic game to end my marathon with.
The server on which this game was played is the |abs| Cod4: HC Mixed Server, and as you can see the |abs| clan players were the main participants.
To be honest, when I started playing on their server at about 7am I was dog tired and wanted to get the thing over and get to bed. This wasn't helped by them playing the CoD4 formats that I am least familiar with - Search & Destroy and Sabotage.
By about 7.30am I knew I was on my last game, and imagine my surprise when their server rotation came up with Domination mode and this map - 'Crash'...
This is undoubtedly my favourite game mode and map, and my spirits instantly lifted. The effect - as you can see - was very positive (I had been playing very poorly since about 3am and was TKing all over the place).
This was a superb way to end my mission - and it was a real high. THis - ironically - was one of teh best played, moost challenging and entertain games I had played in teh whole 24 hours!
Many thanks to |abs| clan for superb competitiveness. Of course the small numbers meant this was a very tactical game - not the simple run and gun you usually get with CoD4.

Well, all that remains for me is to say 'goodnight' (though the sun is shining, the seagulls are making a heck of a racket and I hear people going to work).

As part of the Blizzcon 2017 goodie bag, I got this little figurine of the character Reaper from the Overwatch video game. While I am sometimes concerned about having too many little figurines like this taking up shelf space, it sure is fun to photograph them!
People ask me why I bother taking so many screen shots of my filght sim action - well lovely pictures like this one are the reason...
I would be happy to print this one out and hang it on my wall! (But I am a bit of a sad Milgeek!)
Heroes of the Pacific, despite it's age, still manages to provide some excellent eye candy at times. Here I take off on a training mission in my TBD Devestator torpedo bomber.
