Pondering the Imponderable -- 11:17 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Well, I played Counter Strike (you know, that Half-Life mod that all the kids are talking about) for the first time tonight at the Club Louie LAN party. My newbieness was evident to all, but I did get a couple of good shots in. Will I be dumping Quake III for CS anytime soon? Probably not, but it does make a nice diversion.

Speaking of diversions, I busted out my XWing Collectors Series CD-ROMs and started playing TIE Fighter again. The Collectors Series updates the graphics to the XWing vs. TIE Fighter engine. It's still quite dated, but the gameplay is still awesome. Nothing quite like piloting a TIE, knowing you are two blasts away from oblivion. Having said that, I'll still take a TIE Advanced any old day.
