Free Games - 2008


1up.com for the last three years had been compiling a list of free games for 2008 which you can either play online or download. I just thought I'd give it a mention here, because I know sometimes, when you are so bored, you just don't know what to do, so why not play a game to burn those idle minutes?

The list has many games from all types of genres. I came upon "LinCity", a Sim City-like game which was developed for Linux, but is now available for Win32 platforms. Its not bad for a free city simulation game. I certainly recommend it to you to try it.


Another one which caught my eye was "Beats of Rage", a game paying homage to the classis Sega side-scroller beat-em up "Streets of Rage" on the Sega Megadrive/Genesis. Rather than seeing your usual Axel, Blade characters, Beats of Rage features characters from the "King of Fighters" series. I haven't tried this yet, but will give this a spin over the weekend.

Rainy Weekend

What a way to end the weekend, being soaked top-to-bottom in heavy rain! It came very suddenly and we just wanted to get home, so we took the chance and ran all the way home in the rain. It was refreshing actually, I have had a lot on my mind recently and the being soaked certainly gave the brain a bit of a reboot. But then I realised Taiwan rain is quite acidic, not a good thing. Anyhow, I have updated my homepage with something useful for the lunch hours. Its a random lunch selector, which basically displays a picture of a local eatery which we would go to for lunch. It has been pain in the rear-end when deciding where to go for lunch. There are so many choices in the area where I work, so having something like this may ease the troublesome decision which we all make on a daily basis. I've also made use of the ned 8MB ADSL line by doing a bit of downloading and listening to online radio. Certainly makes a difference and if you guys can get it, then get it! I just read th...

Homeward Bound (For 2 Weeks)

We're setting off later this evening to UK for a couple of weeks. Can't wait to see Manchester and Ashton-under-Lyne again, not to mention to catch with friends and family and of course do a bit of driving! I haven't been driving for more than a year now since I have been in Taiwan, feels like my legs have gone! We're taking a lot pineapple cakes, which Taiwan is famous for, back to friends and family in UK, and some other gifts too. On the way back, we'll bring back all sorts of stuff to Taiwan, so another post on that when I get back. Not sure whether I'll be able to get online as often, but will try my best to keep my blog updated as much as possible while I am over in UK. My grand parents also arrived in UK from Hong Kong to attend my brother Jimmy's wedding. So time would probably be spent travelling around and take to places to see and have fun. Don't worry, as always, I'll be taking pictures! It will be Amelie's first time visit to UK...
