I have just obtained an assault Rifle that makes the AK-47 look like a pellet gun. Fighting the military with this thing is like a shooting fish in a barrel now. This is well timed as I am now starting to face the powerful mutated beasts in the game. The zombies aren't too bad but these gas mask wearing jumping things are like Fiends on the happy juice.

Plus my skill at playing STALKER is through the roof as I have now completed The Arena. A set of eight death match style matches where you face off against other people from lowly Bandits to fellow STALKERS and even the Military. I got stuck for ages on a certain match but then finished it all this afternoon.

I am not saying anything against Ukraine but although the gameplay is brilliantly fun, even more so than Crysis, it does have the feel of an early 00s late 90s title, just with a modern engine. A-list Devs must feel pressured to make their games big and worthy but they get the wrong end of the stick. This could sound like a bad thing but of course, as we know, it's the kind of thing that makes us dribble.

I can't stand MMOs. The idea of playing online with other players is so crap in my opinion. It probably has something to do with my main experience of MMOs being Runescape and getting so bored of that. When I hear about new ones like Elder Scrolls Online and Star Wars Old Republic and the hype surrounding them from people ready to start playing, it makes me think what the fuck. Of course I'm not saying they are shit. The fact millions of people play MMOs prove they are good. But not for me.

Fought the ****** in the jail yet?

EDIT: I bought Dishonoured second hand. And although I went on to buy two of the DLC (they are more like the mission packs of Quake than the 'extra weapon' or 'exclusive skinpack' shit in other modern games) I bought the Dishonoured GotY which includes the game and the DLCs.

Two of the four DLCs for Dishonoured are 3 extra missions each where you play as another character that you meet in the main story. It's kind of like SoA where by the DLC missions are actually better than the main game. Which is saying a lot since the main game is still brilliant.

It's rather new (the GotY edition) so if you want to try out Dishonoured in the future, you should buy this version.

EDIT 2: Also Bad News. I could not transfer Jasc Animation Shop to my laptop and I could not find the disc. What it does is allow me to import images made in MSPaint and dictate their length. So a still of a guys face may be 3 seconds long. A still with on-screen text (a thing of the past I know) could be set at 10 seconds long. While a frame of a fast paced fight may be set at only 0.3 of a second. After doing this for a number of images (such as a scene) I can save it all and then when I import it into WMM2.6 it appears as one block on the timeline. Without it the timeline is a giant un-workable mess with just one scene - Nevermind 5+ minutes worth.

Can you think of a good alternative that I could use instead of Jasc?
