Human, Just Too Human

The past week had been great! There was no RT on Sunday due to the Army Half Marathon. Which means I finally get a peaceful weekend. Hooray.

I won the new X360 game "Too Human" as part of a giveaway contest on Sheylara.com. I was like OMG!!! I think this is the first time I ever won anything from a lucky draw. I met up with Sheylara last Monday to collect my game (she's cute!). No pictures of the meetup because I look terrible in the photo and don't ever want to see it again. :(



Anyway, the game was supposed to be released on Thursday so I got to play it early! I had a lot of people online messaging me how come I got the game. hehe. It's a pretty decent Diablo clone, though there was a lot of controversy online because it did not live up to the hype ("7 years development cycle, blah, blah"). It's still pretty addictive grinding levels, gearing up and hunting for EPICS.

Saturday night was another BoB forum gathering. This time it was at ArtfulKurosawa's home. Lots of people couldn't find his home cos' he gave us the wrong unit number. It looked like he had things all planned out for the night; he even catered food for us all (or was it home-cooked? I couldn't tell). The decor in his home was real nice; you could tell everything was renovated according to his specifications. It makes me wonder if I can ever afford my own home in this lifetime.

There were SCIV games going on in his bedroom but I didn't feel like playing with the regular controllers as I loved arcade ticks to go with my fighting games. Instead, I stuck around the living room and played some PS3 Rock Band. Having played at E2Max before, I was slightly more comfortable with the game and the plastic Stratocaster now. I'll never get tired of Aerosmith's Train Kept a Rollin' (All Night Long!).

I chatted with some of the more familiar forum members. I left close to midnight but even so, people will still coming for a visit. Raccon was very nice and gave me a ride to the East side since he lived in Eunos.

Sunday was spent playing even more Too Human.
