Fenghuang

Well they're essentially gigantic fireworks...

So has anyone else been reading about the seven missles they've shot off lately? I keep telling people that the reason the launches failed was because of Sam Fisher and Third Echelon, and that I'd played this level before and everything turns out alright, and that despite their misguided execution they're just trying to wish us a happy 4th of July by attempting to participate in the blowing up of things, but apparently this stuff is pretty serious.

I weep for my country.

I should play as Gary. His nossie model was cooler than the stock one.

The Hum of My Computer - Jim's Room

Oh, and for the Death on the Mississippi mission: cktail Lounge, guy asked me to put a bottle of Champagne in his room, gave me his keycard. I stole his tux and VIP pass instead. I used the pass and the tux to get through the scanpoint with my guns, just in case I needed them later. Went down the hall that comes after the Cocktail Lounge, sailor was coming out of the doorway to a Staff Only type refreshment room nextdoor to the kitchen. Used the open doorway as cover so the guard posted midway down the hall and staring my direction didn't see. Stole the 1st Class Purser's uniform off the floor there. Entered the kitchen, told to take the cake to the Skipper, poisoned it, then grabbed it. Walked out on the deck, dropped the cake when I noticed a mark was in front of me leaning over the rail smoking, pushed him over, unfortunately he didn't fall in the water but onto a lower deck next to my escape boat. Oh well, no one seemed to notice. Left the cake there to do some recon. Waited until the coast was clear, fibrewired the guard. Dragged him and threw him over the rail into the shadows. Waited for the guy with the burgers to take a leak. Fibrewired him while he was urinating. Watched and waited to figure out how to take out the last two marks. Sedated the 1st Class purser near the end of the area, dragged him around the corner (right under the light ) since since the drop from the (SIX FOOT) rail kills him. Waited until the last mark besides the skip came out and leaned over the rail. Threw him off and into the water. Picked the lock on the door because I didn't feel like walking around. Grabbed the photos, realized I forgot the tainted cake. Ran back down the stairs to get it. Brought it back, walked in, fed it to Skipper, dragged his corpse to his bedroom so his boytoy wouldn't notice. Walked back down to where I got the 1st Class Purser's uniform, changed back into my Tux, walked back to where I got the tux, changed into my Purser's uniform, walked back to where I got the Purser's uniform and changed into my Sailor's outfit, snuck over to the armory and grabbed the FN2000 when the other Sailor's back was turned, walked back to the Bridge, left the Sailor undressed next to his clothes. Snuck through the Engine Room and around back of the boat to the Lifeboat. Escaped. I think my favorite level has to be A Dance with the Devil. Walking around in my mark's costume was just too fun. Surprised nobody noticed the host had gone bald all of a sudden though.

Tell me when the schizophrenia sets in. Nothing for summer but it's looking like I'll be flying out to NY in December.

It's called spreading the love.

There's probably enough then but I didn't know that the upgrades would become obsolete originally because the upgrades that make them obsolete are the last ones to become available. So now I've got a fully upgraded pair of Silverballers, SMG, Shotgun, Sniper Rifle, and a completely unmodded M4. Also I have neither of the health upgrades and to get those I'd have to sacrifice one of the shotty upgrades. Oh well, replay time I guess.

No respawns or save system means the cashcow ends a lot sooner.

Nevermind, I understand it now.

It hurts my brain?

I saw a boy on the street corner today, and he had a stack of paper with smilie faces drawn on them. He was handing them out to people, and they'd smile, and thank him, then walk on their way a little bit happier because of the joy the lad was spreading. I walked up to him and asked him why he was doing it? He said that he was trying to be just like his hero, chos echo. I told him that he wasn't doing that anymore, he didn't think that the smilies were worth the effort. The boy looked dejected, frowned, and stood there thinking for a second. Then he said "Well even though chos doesn't think making people happy for the sake of making people happy's worth it anymore, I do." and he continued handing out his sheets of paper.

And by your meaning you mean bodily fluids. Am I right fellas? I mean, am I right?

Pro Wrestling is a soap opera for men.

You gots to be stealthy about it man. Gots to have tact. My day is one long ogling spree.

My only complaint is that even after I finish the game with Silent Assassin ratings across the board I don't have enough cash to upgrade all my weapons fully.

Dude, what are you talking about. Cars the game was awesome!

Are you a bad enough dude to save the president Musopticon?

You should see downtown Grass Valley. Warm weather lately. Ladies walking around downtown in nothing but a bikini top and board shorts. <3 California.

No, we need even more smilies.

No, that's Professional. I finished the game full SA. Last level (Requiem) was buggy as hell. Graphically. I suspect it suffers from the same ills as the game does if I try to turn AA on.

awesome dude! thanks!

Honestly from what I can tell game testing is a crappier job than foodservice. It's like all the frustrating parts about gaming without any good stuff. Imagine if you got stuck at a really hard part in a game, only you couldn't stop playing that really hard spot no matter how boring or mindnumbing it got without losing your job. Then imagine it isn't even hard, but you're just being forced to play the same part over and over again. Sucktastic.
