Back to Black!

Not necessarily my favourite game of all time, but definitely one of my recent faves, Black lets you unleash awesome fire-power with the added bonus that virtually everything in the game has a propensity to blow-up! Stuff actually begs to be blown-up. One of the best things about the game though, is the way the difficulty cranks up sharply from one level to the next, and it just gets extremely intense.

So, when you find yourself pinned-down under heavy fire, with no ammo and very little health, you have no option but to make a run for it. back where you've come from, scouring for missed items. It's just an awesome game!

A Demonstration In Artifical Intelligence!


So, this morning I had my Intelligent Internet Applications exam, although it's actually Artificial Intelligence, I have no idea why they named it so. It was 2 hrs 15 mins long, 3 questions from 5, and it was very hard. We were prepared for that however, because out tutor had seen the paper a few weeks ago and her exact words were "I'm glad you're sitting this paper and not me, I wouldn't like to be in your shoes!" That put my mind at ease, not! Needless to say, she never really conveyed just how hard it really was.

Anyway, it's also a really good film, A.I. quite long but sentimental enough to make grown men cry (possibly) and that's quite hard to achieve though the medium of television, although not for weak minded women who cry at at even the most pathetic soap-death. I should know, I've seen it happen many a time. Usually, I need to consume a considerable amount of alcohol before I can be made tearsome by something which would normally barely register emotionally.

Now, I only have the Network Systems exam on Thursday to negotiate, then the guys at College and myself are going out for a little drink to commemorate the end of our degree course, following which I'll most likely have to spend an hour or 2 on the phone to Job Centre staff, explaining that I'm no longer a student, but once again a filthy unemployed person, not worthy to receive their pity nor disdain! I look forward to that!
