About Me

Iam a gammer from the harsh uruguayan jungle (we dont even have a jungle down here, too cold, go and do some wikipedia of Uruguay). I used to do a podcast in spanish about videogames at Radio LevelUp but I dont do it anymore... anyway those guys are there still making it so you can give it a try if you understand spanish
And i can say "�aca �aca �aca" and i know how to pronoaunce it well since im a spanish speaker, so Im a superior race.
A couple of idiots may find funny that I dont have good english grammar, but again, they are probably idiots since they only speak/write one language...

Most of my time in the internet is because of games. I love videogames so much that i sleep with my girlfriend and my ds, at the same time... i call that a "threesome" and my humor doesnt get anything better than that.
Mostly im a PC gamer, i was going to buy a 360 but faulty crappy hardware told me not to since if it goes RRoD here I would have lost my money, and as a man Im entitled to the sweat of my brow. I want to fuck the Wii and I believe the PS3 is going to be the first console in space.

In the "real" life (come on, internet now is part of our lives anyway...), I study medicine (takes a lot of time and I cant spend enough of my time playing videogames). Is not what you would call a marriage made in heaven, if I wanted to game more I should have sutdy something related to pc�s, but I grown surrounded by computers and stuff so I chose the bio stuff instead. Anyway, little time to play video games if you dont want my biographical shit.

And the main reasson I play games for the story behind them. I love well written stories like Half Life series, of course Portal (kind of a Valve fan). Other great games include World Of Warcraft (not currently playing, actually I was never hardcore, but I enjoyed the experience a lot), and of course the classics like System Shock 2. Other great titles had stuck with me over the years, classics adventure games like Monkey Island, Indiana Jones and Grim Fandango.

So, best game experiences:
Half Life 2 (and the original Half Life of course).
System Shock 2
Grim Fandango
Indiana Jones and the Fate Of Atlantis
Monkey Island

Zeno Clash Velt | 9:40 PM on 04.28.2009 6 comments

Hey, its been a while, I was at hospital today here in Uruguay wandering that if we are all going to die soon from a flu from a fu**** pig then at least I should be gaming something best fitted for the issue. What is better than fighting strange humanoids in a rather strange world? So I picked up this title called Zeno Clash, it seems like a Source mod because if you have played half life or a Valve game made with the source engine then you will recognize it. But Zeno Clash doesnt have a thing to do with half life, actually is a pretty strange for a FPS. Im not a big fun of melee combat mechanics on FPS but this one nails it. I will admit it, I just spended half an hour with the game. The combat plays fine and is dinamic, fun and at the same time I dont feel tired after a couple of combats. I use a keyboard so I suck at quick motion things on melee combat, but they got a lot of common sense issues into this one. It looks awesome too, I mean, I just have started the game and as the player you are throwed into a situation you dont have a clue what is about. Still you have to fight these humanoids that are like a mixture between humans and animals. The best thing is that as you fight them you are not only looking at the different models and textures and how well the enemies are done from the graphic standpoint (I hate copy&paste enemies), but the rest of the world concept design is amazing and will suck you up. So what do I think about this one? Too early to tell, gameplay and graphic wise they got something strange and different in a good way, but I heard the game is not that long and Iam somehow worried about the story. it seems a crazy world so I would like to see some crazy ideas that are there floating around. So maybe I will come back later with more thoughts. Attached photos:
