Latest Tweet: Right, I think the latest AMD drivers have had an adverse effect on my graphics card. NVidia for my next card methinks.

Left 4 Dead 2 first impressions and videos! :o
Posted by PooJee @ 1:39 AM, Thursday, 29th October 2009

After 27 hours of more rage, the PC demo of Left 4 Dead 2 finally hit just after midnight (GMT time) and I’ve given it a quick go. So far the game is looking fantastic, there’s no doubt it’s similar to the original but this one seems somewhat more polished.

The graphics appear to be more shiny and zombies now take visual damage if you shoot them but don’t drop them. I’ve noticed on a few occasions that some of them are still running around with a great big hole in their chest after being scratched by the shotgun.

I had FRAPS running for my first go so here are a few videos after the jump! :)

Left 4 Dead 2 demo RAAAAAAAAGE!!!
Posted by PooJee @ 11:53 PM, Tuesday, 27th October 2009

Oh my god, I don’t think I’ve ever seen so much rage on an Internet forum. Today was supposed to be the early release of the Left 4 Dead 2 demo for those who have pre-orders for the game, while XBox 360 owners got their greasy mitts on it first thing this morning PC gamers had to wait until 8pm.

Bandwidth oopsie!
Posted by PooJee @ 11:37 AM, Sunday, 25th October 2009

During the last five years of being on broadband I haven’t ever had any regard for the download limits put in place by my ISP. This is mainly because I’ve been on the unlimited usage package – which has turned out not to be so unlimited after all. As for the very first time I have been slapped with a Fair Usage email by my provider moaning that I’ve downloaded 80GB this month and if I hit 100GB they will proceed to slow my connection during peak times (5pm – 12am).

Y’know I could’ve swore I’ve downloaded more than this in a single month before, especially when I used to download loads of anime, particularly Bleach (huge series).

Anyway, how did I hit this limit? Well, lets say Windows updates (twice!), downloading Steam games (twice, again – also includes Unreal Tournament 3 which is 8GB a pop, ouch!), Youtube videos in HD and of course, good ol’ torrents have contributed nicely.

Now the question is, in the remaining six days of this month, do I slow down my usage and risk slow internets or do I continue as I mean to go on? Weeeeeell, the latest episode of Dexter will be available tonight. :)

The clocks have gone back and the evenings are going to start getting dark and, but who cares when you’ve got the Left 4 Dead 2 demo to keep you occupied as Winter draws closer.

The pre-load on Steam has begun and I’ve got mine downloaded:

The demo is out on the 27th October 2009 on Steam for those of you who have pre-ordered with the mere mortals getting it a week later.

Yay for finger prints! :D
Yay for finger prints! :D

My copy of Windows 7 showed up today, which was a bit of surprise considering the postal strike that is currently underway. I guess not as many of the posties were for it as first thought.
