drug is the drug

unearthed from the last century!



i remember getting addicted to this when i first played it. its as addictive as the drugs you "peddle" in whatever metropolis you choose. note that this is the crude DOS version, and is much fun even if it isn't the Windows one.



by the middle of the month, i remembered how to sell, managed to pay off my loan, and even banked some money. hoooo-haaaaa!



by the last day, i banked most of the dough and took a slight hit with some unsold Ecstasy. almost $190,000 earned in 30 days. not bad for a one-off.



if only i was this judicious with money in real life. wait, that means i'm gonna be dealing. or in jail. or dead.

thanks for the memories, Beermat Software!

need a donation

this, specifically.



drop me an email so i can tell you where to ship it, generous souls.

baby got back

the rumble is finally back, reports Gizmodo. well, its about time, baby! just roll out that PS3 bundle with MGS4 and i'm good to go.

there will be blood

yes, i got that DVD for a mere $15, a cheap bargain considering it will be a classic down the road and i even the scales a bit with all the others i downloaded "procured". so get off my case.

but that's not what am talking about here. for double that amount, they issued a Hitman trilogy, compiling those three games that matter in the series (Hitman 2, 3 and 4). i don't mind playing games even after the world has moved on to the next big thing. i still use my trusty PS2, i sold my PSP, and the only reason i may get a PS3 when that MGS4 bundle comes out is to jump on the Blu-Ray bandwagon.

so here i am, back to being a murderer. emphasis on mass.

i have no idea what the Hitman game was about prior to this, and i vaguely looked at the movie adaptation with Tim Olyphant (i guess he missed the guns too much post-Deadwood). but then again, the title should say it all. shiny guns, whacking lowlifes in both low and high places ... what's not to like? (yeah you have to be stealthy, which i really don't do a good job of)

aside from the whole thing being a time killer, i usually waste more time piling dead bodies on top of the other. its some kind of perverse fun to put hardy male Russian soldiers in various provocative positions, especially after you've stolen their clothes. take that, Mr. Russian President!

as the game progresses (i'm still on the first disc, and lost somewhere in Japan), i learned how to cut down on the collateral damage (but its fun!), although i am still a goddamned mass murderer.


my only complaint is there are no extra health capsules for Hitman to use. did i miss something in the manual? (INRTFM) oh wait, there it is.
