Weekend Non Gym Session 01/11/2009

Weekend Non Gym Session 01/11/2009

I woke up really late today around 10 am. I was looking forward to bring Little Foot for a walk. The weather was quite hot around 10:30 am. As such, walking Little Foot was quite unpleasant indeed.

Here are the stats of the walk:

Sunday, 01/11/2009, Light cardio session
15 mins walking Little Foot around the part for 2 times
* Resulted in 75 calories burned and about 1.2km walked(estimated)

I have recently completed Wolfenstein on the PC, here is a short review of the game. The game length was quite short as there were around ten main story missions. There were a few side missions that I managed to complete entirely.

Fortunately, Wolfenstein felt like a solid PC game and was ran quite well on my powerful PC. Without further ado, here are some screenshots for viewing pleasure:

*Please note that I use the usual keyboard and mouse combo for this game as intended to for a typical FPS game.

Pros:
1. Action pack, lotsa shootings, playing around with the veil and its power.
2. Great graphics, great sound effects and sound track.
3. Decent story (could have covered more with regards to the setting)
4. Easy to pick up
5. Some RPG elements like upgrading weapons and powers.

Cons:
1. Very short, it lasted me 2-3 casual playings
2. Some point of the game, graphics looks a bit dated

My verdict for this game is 7.5 out of 10. I definitely would recommend anybody who enjoys the first person shooters games to give this a try as it is quite enjoyable.
