dude, you will _LOVE_ it.

SPOILER WARNING

2 of the best stages in ANY GAME EVER:





1) Death from above - You are in a C-130 specter (Same plane they used in the Transformer movie to aid the survivors in Qatar by shooting their cannons from the plane. The entire stage is in night-vision surveillance footage mode where you have to assist ground troops from above.

2) Chernobyl sniper stage - East Block europe, you + 1 in your guilley suits have to sneak through enemy territories to a sniping location, then use your Barret to take out a target, where factors like wind factor, bullet drop and the Coriolis effect comes into play (that's the thing that makes your toilet water spin a certain way due to centrivical forces)


Down side is its a very short game (i finished it in 7hrs of casual gaming), but it's TOP quality. I didn't like the MP side of it though - too cramped/fast for me.
 
right boys and girls ... and Mephisto ... home time for me! \o/

Tomorrow I have to do a 18km beach marathon that crosses 2 rivers. Surfers Marathon ftl :(
 
what the hell was i thinking ?????????

I'm doing a friggen 17km beach marathon tomorrow that crosses 2 rivers!!! I'm as unfit as an american fast food junkie!

Please think of me, for it will not end well...
 
flip ... i have so many butterflies in my stomach it feels like im waiting to do a oral in english class :(

2hrs until the marathon starts. :(

By the hammer of THOR! I'm so stuffed!

Weird thing is I only took 10-15min longer walking it this time than I did running it last year. It was pretty friggen orsm ... running along the beach and across 2 rivers for 17km.

I'm a bit broken now though :/ but i gots me t-shirt :D

2hrs40 or so... will get the official time soon.

It's quite a well known race with loads of international people coming to do it. It started 35yrs back when the local surfers and road runners had an argument about who was the fittest, they had a race and the surfers got pwned, so they organized a rematch but made it along the beach. It's been an ongoing race each year... with the additions of walkers (I power walked this time coz I was just coming out of bronchitus and woulda killed over if I ran) as well as paddlers who paddle from the start all along the sea to the end.

We did it last year for the 1st time without any practice and nearly died but it was cool. If you finish in the cut off time you get a cool shirt :D

Next up is a 50km cycle race , a 1mile swim in the local river and then a triathlon. We did all these last year too because we were tired of always sitting behind our PC's and doing squat all exercise. (Then rested a year afterwards :p )
 
Thats really cool. I have been so incredibly lazy in terms of physical exercise over the past year. I used to play a fair bit of cricket, rugby, squash and tennis at varsity.

I would actually love to get a game of squash in sometime
 
It makes a world of difference... instead of just coming home and playing WoW etc. the whole day. You actually feel refreshed for work.

What a bunch of us have been doing lately is to go down to the beach after work each day and go for a longboard/bodysurf session until 7pm or so. It just rounds of the day on a smile.
