More Star Wars Galaxies stuff
Thursday, June 12th, 2003
Check out some of the beta testers’ accounts of the game. Right now this is all that’s passing through the Non-Disclosure Agreement, but man it looks like an absolutely awesome game. I’m gonna need some upgrades for this one too… DSL, a stick of 512MB of RAM (=768MB total), and a new AthlonXP 2400+ will help. ::
Delayed Posting.
Thursday, June 12th, 2003
Well, life is generally boring now. I can post something interesting every single day in Berkeley, but not here.
So here’s a week’s worth of material. 
- Star Wars Galaxies – This game could very well be the best game ever to hit the market. Hopefully it’s coming out on the 25th of this month, but it’s been delayed several times before. It’s one of those Massively Multiplayer Online Games… like Everquest, only better, and set in the Star Wars universe. Think about it — you can do anything — fight ewoks, build droids, join the rebellion, become a Jedi (albeit with much difficulty)… it’s everything a gamer and a Star Wars geek could ever want — to live in the Star Wars universe. Don’t worry, it’ll only take over my life for the first couple days.
- Driving is going well. I’ve only almost crashed twice. Not even that really, I’ve just cut someone off once and made one or two risky moves. I’m learning
- LAN Party?* – I’m planning a LAN party for sometime this summer. I’m envisioning 8-12 people, all 1337, no n00bs. (hahaha. just kidding. everyone’s invited. hmm, better not say that on the internet… “you’re not invited unless I tell you you’re invited.” there. that works). Games include: CS, Starcraft, AoEII, Q3A, JKII, STV:EF, and more. It’ll be at my house, and sometime in July. Tell me if you’re interested.
- A Job? Me? – I might get a job. I don’t know when, I don’t know where, and I don’t know how. I just want to make some money doing something related to computers. Ojai PC Pros? Ojai.net? Lynda.com? I’ve got some options. I’ll look around and keep you posted.
- DSL Is finally in Ojai and has been for months, but my dad won’t get it. He says we don’t need it at all, that dial-up is just fine, and that it’s expensive. I plan to convince him that he does need it (a lot), Dial-up is insanely slow and can cause mental instability, and DSL is the same price as Dial-up plus the extra phone line that we need because we use it so frickin much. I will win this one. :-]
That’s about it. More next week. Hehe. ::
