Recession and back

ION CANNOOOOONNNN

December 2007 was a complete slowdown for me. As I isolated myself from the world and spent the days and nights cooped in front of the PC, I reintroduced myself to the wonderful world of gaming. Apart from Christmas and airsoft, December can be summarized as follows:

Bioshock 2
Command and Conquer 3 (my high school friends have a yearly tradition where we do an 8-hour C&C marathon between Christmas and New Year.)
Team Fortress 2
Call of Duty 4 (kick ass game – finished the campaign in an afternoon)
Gears of War
The Witcher (still playing — load times are horrendous but the game is solid, like you’re reading a novel)

As my calendar is slowly getting filled with new appointments for January, I slowly bid goodbye to a lax December. It was fun while it lasted.

You forgot Resiklo. 🙂 Oh yeah its part of the Pinoy Christmas Tradition. Get your breaks, down time and recharge your batteries when and where you can get them. It still slow going in the CBD. I expect things will speed up again by next week. Meanwhile, try to enjoy the downtime 🙂

Yeah damn, I need to make space for playing games. My box isn’t good enough to play some of those games though. I’m currently playing company of heroes, which is a MUST play for any RTS fan, and Suikoden 5 for the ps2.
