  Leaving to Norway

  My flight from Tulsa to Memphis leaves tomorrow (December 21, 2009) at 4:25PM. Then I have a flight to Amsterdam at 7:30PM. Once I reach Amsterdam, I will take another flight to Oslo and then a train to my intended destination.I am very concerned about the weather in Amsterdam. I checked the flights to and from Schiphol Airport, and there have been several delays and cancelations. I am hoping for a miracle here.
  

  This is probably the craziest thing I ever did in my life. My next blog should be from another continent. I find that hard to believe.

  Take care everyone and see you soon.

  QUAKE III: Arena Review
  

  

  CLICK ON THE PICTURE
  

  This day 10 years ago (December 2, 1999), Quake 3 was released. It remains one of my favorite games till day, and I thought if I were to review it, now would be the time. I am not sure how many of you played this game, its one of the best deathmatch games ever. Any PC gamers reading this, who have not played this, should immediately fix the mistake by buying a copy.

  THANKSGIVING PURCHASE

  I bought the THQ pack on Steam for Thanksgiving. Cost me $49.99. I think its a fantastic deal.

  1. Company of Heroes
  2. Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts
  3. Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor
  4. Frontlines™: Fuel of War™
  5. Full Spectrum Warrior
  6. Full Spectrum Warrior: Ten Hammers
  7. Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights
  8. Red Faction

  18. Warhammer® 40,000™: Dawn of War® II

  18 games for $49.99! Also, my uncle generously agreed to reimburse the money. That just made my Thanksgiving.I thought the Orange Box was a great deal, but this is even better!
  

  VACATION

  If everything goes well, I shall be spending Christmas in New Year in Norway this year. I got my Schengen visa last week and I bought the tickets to Oslo. I will be leaving here on December 21st, 2009 and returning on January 10, 2010. I am really looking forward to this. Its going to be a trip of a lifetime for me.I will post more about it in the coming weeks.

  EXAMS

  I got done with one of the finals today, and I have two more on Monday (December 7, 2009). I cannot wait to get done. I want to start playing Company of Heroes.

  EXCLUSIVE PC GAMER

  With Nutcrackr buying a PS 3, I think I am one of the few exclusive PC gamers remaining. Its a dying breed, but its good to be part of a niche community.

  Well, that's all for now. Hope everyone is doing fine. Keep us posted on your Christmas plans.

  Take care!

  Mass Effect! Level 34 - Paramecium

  

  This is a thank-you blog to Ben, who just gifted me Mass Effect over Steam. Its available over the weekend for $9.99, and I was seriously contemplating buying this, when he asked me open my Steam, and there it was.

  In Christmas 2007, it was Opposing Force, in Christmas 2008 it was Fallout 2 and original Half Life, and 2009 it is Mass Effect. You got a hat-trick buddy.

  Thanks again for this, I really appreciate it.
