Books
I've finished Ernest Hemingway on Writing today. It's a collection of Hemingway's quotes on writing. Quite good, and helpful. Also, I'm a third of the way into The Principle of Relativity. It's a collection of essays on Relativity, both Special and General, including Einstein's original papers, and Minkowski's treatment of Special Relativity. It's awesome.

Is it finally here? The death of the fantasy genre?
Near future scifi could be nice. Like TLJ, I guess but without the parallel world.

Both fantasy and science fiction should go take a running jump in the lake. Real world RPGs for the win.

Pictures of your games
Your uber graphics card can't handle it? Of course it could, it ran at a beautiful 70 fps in the thickest forests. But the game is too laid back and lacks initiative to get you to do things. And, for all its vaunted openness, it effectively has nothing for you to do apart from xp farming.

Mask of the Betrayer III
That resolution is pretty painful. Try turning off the mystical water and removing the shadows completely. Also, reduce drawing distance by at least 50%. If you get it to run above 20fps at all times, it should be good enough for nonhitchy performance. MotB isn't GoW. Edit:Oh, and check this out, and don't forget to turn off VSync.

Saw American Gangster today. Barely competent. The acting was quite good.

Zero Punctuation - Yahtzee reviews
I think that the quality fluctuates wildly, and it never ever goes above decent. Decent as in adequate. Someone kill Bastila now. Please.

Duke Nukem Forever
Because it's a game of the future that began development in 1997?

I like how he started the review with A Little Less Conversation.

2008 is gonna be a lame year for games.
Seconded, that would be a bit of a blunder. Prince Henry for teh win! Admittedly, if Prince Henry was in Empire: Total War that would mean he was an undead. I still feel your support, though. I Feel It!

Vote for the Mask of the Betrayer!
If your PC can run MotB, it should be able to run The Witcher.

Prove it. You are Texan. Texans would never ever give their offspring names that might be construed as gay.
