Moving!
Right!
So I've moved to a new address: http://vamberfeld.soclog.se/ love it!
In mah house.
Dear readers.
I apologize for the apparent gross neglect of this blogg.
Without further ado I shall attempt to redeem myself in my readers eyes.
bah, who the hell am I kidding? I now damn well I'll "forget" to update again.
Life sucks, get a helmet.

So, whats new in my life?
I now own a shiney ps3( yeah yeah, My computer is still mah favorite baby)
A brand new iRiver e-book reader, damn good buy that. So many books, so little space.
AND! I will soon be the proud tennant in my very own borrowed appartement! who'd knew!?( if the previous tennant didn't crash the place that is.)

Since ze shiney new dungeon isn't confirmed yet I'll talk about the ps3
I'm impressed with it, good graphics, the games I bought are entertaining to the point that I'd like to take a few days off from work to gorge myself.
I'm also impressed with how easy it was to get the sexy little thing to find all the videos and mp3s I got stored on my computer.
I'm poorer, but it was worth it.
well, Now that you know I'm still alive - I'll get the feth outa here before the fans notice I'm back.

Thought begets Heresy; Heresy begets Retribution
'cause the band is still playing.
Ah... sleep...
If anyone wonders, dreamhack killed me.
Dh09 Winter. By the Emperor I missed Dh, So much to do, so little time.
Four days of bliss and about 10 hours of sleep in total. Yeah, I feel like crap. Totally worth it though!
My plan was to update the blog once a day during dreamhack, let's just say that my priorities got messed up.
So, for four days I watched True blood, House M.D, Bones and Supernatural. Not to forget the 'round 20 hours I spent mowing down soldiers in Modern Warfare 2.
In short, A good time was had by all, except the ones at the wrong end of my barrel.
I also played Starcraft II, and yes, deep down I am a Blizzard fanboi. Nothing compares to a massive zergling rush.
Even managed to survive one round in the Beta tournament they held! For the swarm!
Dreamhack this year was massive and superb, the only complaints I have was our seats( Please, lets not sit directly under the ventilation next year) and the 15 y o in the seats infront of us.
I tried to kill them with my mind once every 15 minutes or so, sadly, without success.
I know, it's not witty and it's not pretty but I'm too tired for this. I promise a better post in a day or two - when I'm rested.
In other news,
Beat Dragon age, already began the second playthrough.
Horus Heresy series ist done.
Finished the latest book in the Gaunt's ghost's series, ffs high command! The Tanith first and only belongs on the frontlines!
Jin-roh - the wolf brigade is still a good movie.
Got mah new books, more short reviews/musings! yay!
Windows 7 is still awesome.
Radiohead saves the day yet again.
I hate my current theme, will make my own when hell freezes over.
Still got a job, on that note, better get to it again.

Since I can't get no sleep.
Phew. Been an intence week, or rather, it's been intence since last thursday. Damn you, Bioware, for making a modern version of Baldur's Gate, The bane of sleep, destroyer of social life.
Dragon age: Origins is everything it promised to be, Great mature story, an immersive world, low system requirements(yay for max graphics on laptop) and THE bloody game of the year.
I've played for 36 hours or so and so far I've completed less than 35% of all the content in the game. It's singleplayer, and that keeps the quality high - no lord noobhaxxorz running around.The voice acting is very good in most areas, there is no denying it.
The graphical art design is leaned towards the realistic side of things, no over the top shiney "look a power ranger!" armor which is very refreshing.
I've heard a lot of complaints regarding that and I say, they're talking out of their own arse.
If you look at the "better" gear you see the difference in craftmanship, It looks like it's better crafted. It's subtle, and that explains why most gamers can't appreciate it. Sissy final fantasy lovers... A wee bit of refined taste wouldn't hurt you.
It's a grim George R.R Martin kinda world, and that my good friends, is the reason we all should love it.
No one is to be trusted at face value. Everyone has an agenda. There is no such thing as innocence, only varying degrees of guilt.
Not that much has happened on the reading side, well, I've read about half Legion by Dan Abnett and it's everything you can expect from him, a good read all in all.

As I lay here crying.
*whimper*
Trying to install windows 7 on a Asus G50V is...
Lets look at it like this. The G50V laptop is you. You're 6 years old.
Meet Vista, its your big brother who loves you. Windows 7, the guy that picks on you alot. Grabbing your toys, pissing in your drink - stuff like that.
What we have here is a scenario with two endings that goes like this
Installing a pure version of windows 7:
Your big brother leaves the country with your father and you never see him again. Windows 7 turns into the worst bully ever, he steals your dvd, he eats all your candy so you can't get that extra speedboost and he hits you over the head with a brick. You're rushed to the hospital with the diagnosis: Retarded. Bad ending.

Uppgrading vista to windows 7:
Your big brother never leaves, he loves you and will bring down his oversized fists on anyone that tries to hurt you. He catches windows 7 in the act as the little inbred bastard tries to convince a dog to take a dump on your jacket. Big brother intervenes with furious anger. He charges forth, grabs the dog by the tail, swings the dog over his head and proceeds to beat windows 7 into submission. The dog yelps and windows 7's screams echo across the schoolyard. You run to your brother hugging him and thanking him for his timely interference. Crying and with snot running down his face( not to forget the smashed dog) windows 7 begs forgivness and promises to be your bitch forever. Good ending.

Yeah, so I finally got the damn thing working... Haven't tested any games or other demanding applications yet( was about done 02.13 this morning) but it seems promising. Even stays overclocked from what I can divine. When it works its feckin fantastic.
No new manga today... and will review Galaxy in flames tomorrow(if you can call my pathetic little notes as a review).
Tired...
--Thought of the Day--
Success is commemorated; Failure merely remembered.
Here I am.
First facebook now this... damnit.
Right, Welcome to the Sixtysixth!
guh... this is harder than I thought. Well, This blogg will contain my random rumblings, links that I want to share, music, movies, games. The list goes on, all in all - all the good stuff that keeps me entertained.
This( admittedly great idea) was pointed out to me by my very good friend Petra, whom during the years had to endure an endless torrent of links to this and that( no idea how she actually endured that, patience of an angel).
She simply said "I can't really be bothered with that at the moment, didn't you make a blogg a while back?"
And I replied "well yeah..."
"Then use it!".
"Then use it!".
I know, I know - Thats not 100% verbatim, but I think we get the point.
So ehm... Enjoy.
