Nancy Drew: Legend of the Crystal Skull December 25, 2007

Time and again I like to mention how much a fan of PC Adventure games I really am, and this opportunity just doubles up on that one for me. I’ve managed to resolve Nancy Drew: Legend of The Crystal Skull. Of course, I didn’t want to spend too much brain on it so I looked up a walkthrough to quickly help me cross some obstacles. The game reached a dead end, and something tells me that it was a bug and was not intended. What happened is that I played Nancy’s best friend Bess for a while there and a mini food van stood in the way of an alley I had to sneak into. Whenever I tried to enter the alley, I would instead end up inside the food van and to some food. Since there was no other move remaining I decided to quit. A bit of tampering with the ‘Save Game’ files restored the game to an earlier time from where I finished it to the end, carefully avoiding the trap this time. I wonder if the game developers know about it.
Anyway, the game rocks my socks! An instant hit with me. It was completely worth it and my time was spent really well.

Backstreet Crap December 21, 2007

Here’s another post on the things I hate. I hate Backstreet Boys. They’ve hardly released a single decent album after their first and most of them are lame. I don’t understand why some Indians must go all out to endorse them just because they’re smartly dressed, look impressive and most importantly are firangi. Even there I think only Nick is average looking because of his fair skin and blonde hair and the rest are just extras. Is the current generation of Indian men so self-demeaning to idolize chocolate boys. These are the same people who go Ga-Ga over Hrithik (Six-Fingered-Freak) Roshan. There’s a nasty thing about sequels that has the Roshan bandwagon rolling. I’m talking about Krissh 2 and Koi Mil Gaya 2. Both are so lame, I could puke in the theatre. Why must we underestimate ourselves so much? Ask your friends who still listen to Incomplete and have their posters hung inside their hostel rooms. Yuck!

I hate idle people. People who are too lazy to even analyze what they’re saying or doing. These people are bound to say or do something to upset your mood, are extremely irrational and temperamental. And when they unite in groups, that sort of in itself spells doomsday for you if you happen to be in their vicinity. Go get a life!

I’ve redone a pre-made www.wordpress.com template and spiced it up to suit my preferences with this magnificent header and layout. The header was done using the latest techniques in photo-editing and image enhancement. In fact I would have liked it animated but flashing effects and blogging don’t go hand-in-hand. Otherwise the few of you out there who actually read this crap would find it hard to concentrate, now wouldn’t you? Besides, I was thinking of placing Google Ads on this page just to irritate the reader.
What i just found out today about my HP 2401 tu laptop with genuwine Microsoft Windows Vitsta Home Premium is that you can’t take screen captures the way you can like in the case of Windows XP. Instead, you use the following command: Fn+Prtsc.
Another thing I’ve learned only recently is that free-hand sketching in the real world can be quite a challenge if you’re to use it to improve yourself for a goal.
