OFP2 : Competitive Multiplayer Trailer
Filed under Gaming in generalok so it’s been a few days since I’ve written anything here, which is usually the tipping-point-of-blog-failure… but let’s not go there. To make up for said lack of postyness here’s another gameplay trailer showing off some competitive multiplayer aspects of Operation Flashpoint 2.
I admit to being impressed with most everything I’ve seen so far. Here’s hoping OFP2 succeeds where some other game has more or less completely fallen on it’s face.

Fig. 8

I will say nothing about Fig. 8 aside from pointing out it's awesomeness in so far as being able to distract the hell out of you. Figure it out (it's not hard) and see how you do. Yes, there is an end which for me = 139,224. continue -
Eve Online – I heard I was dead
no responses - Posted 09.27.09
When I set up my character in Eve Online, I decided to create a guy I could relate to and one for which I could create a vague back story. As it turns out, naming him "Dirk Plisskin" (distant relation of the venerable, tight-panted bad ass Snake Plisskin) was a wise move. Like his ancient forefather everyone has heard he ... continue -

So let's pretend that there hasn't been a long ass period of time since my last post. Let's pretend I've posted here every day as I have for months. Let's pretend I haven't embraced the core angle of this site (ie - distraction) and gotten myself SO distracted with various things that I just sort of stopped posting. Let's pretend. Sweet, ... continue -

Eve Online – Ship shopping for n00bs

I intended to write up a little AAR of some recent happenings in Eve Online, but I realize that a post I made this morning on QT3 pretty much sums it up so here's an abridged version that should still make sense. In short, I'm really starting to get into Eve Online. It's starting to make sense and I'm starting to ... continue -
Effing Hail

You know what the world needs effing more of? It needs more effing games where you get to control the effing weather and destroy effing things, and it especially needs more games with "effing" in the title. Happily Effing Hail satisfies on all fronts (weather related pun effing intended) by allowing you to control the weather, and in particular wind and ... continue -
Rise of Flight demo

Interested in paying a monthly fee to fly some of the slowest combat aircraft of all time? No? Me either. That said, there is a demo of Rise of Flight out over here which gives you three days of World War I aviation action, then tells you to stuff it. If you're a good pilot you might even see an ... continue

Call of Duty 4 was spectacular in all sorts of ways. The single player experience unfolded like a big budget action movie, with plot twists, unexpected events and characters that weren't just props used to explain the plot, but real people fighting by your side. The multiplayer aspect was compelling ...continue

This guy is really, really pissed off about how game companies market the co-op aspect of their games. He could use a lesson in getting his point across in a shorter length of time, but he's got some points in there. He swears a lot too, so that's a plus. continue

Seriously, I've got nothing worth writing about at the moment. Despite that, here I am so I'll just make this up as I go along. Still playing ArmA2 incessantly, and though most of my particular problems are worked out I get the odd CTD and BSoD. The CTD's are just in ...continue

I tend to start games, and never "finish" them. I put that in quotes because the term may mean different things in different circumstances but I'm basically talking about completing the main point of any given game. Maybe it's the main storyline in Call of Duty 4, or playing through ...continue
What is the Cave of Distraction?
At the end of a hard day, many men retreat to their cave. Often times that cave contains a computer or gaming console which allows the man to destroy things and recklessly kill people with merciless abandon, as men were born to do. The cave and the games therein provide distraction, from all those things in life the man needs to be distracted from. This site is about the distractions, found within the cave.
