One Year . . .
It been a year today, since I actually accepted that something really horrible has happened to me. I guess one week was a long enough time to anything to sink in, no matter how unbelievable it is. And life would never be the same again.
And I must say life is not the same. Everything is changed. Every stupid single thing. I cant believe it, but it has happened none the less.
Is life good ?? Yes, at least for the time being. In fact its Great. And I guess I would never have to remember this 'anniversary' ever again.
Blast from the Past !!!
I just discovered that 3D Releams open sourced the classic Duke Nukem 3D a few years back. That means windows ports for the old classic !! Damn its looks good !! Being fickle minded, I hardly stick on to one game. But Duke Nukem was and is probably the only game I played for extended period of time (On my old P60 hehehe ).
I tried google and wow, I found the home of jduke3d a windows port of the game. The game is completly playable on my Win 2003 laptop. And then I found the Icing on the Cake - A hi-def mod for the game. So now I can play it at full resolution, with sharp hi-res graphics. This was fun. Played for an hour or so, and boy does that bring back old memories.
Lets see if I can get enough time to finish the game one more time. To be frank, after playing all new games, duke nukem kinda feels too easy. I guess I am missing the AI of new games. But then Duke Nukem is Duke Nukem.
