Game on!

Posted by Harmonic Agenda on

Night..

We have a “massive” storm called Berit hanging over some parts of Sweden tonight. I’m sitting in my kitchen in Stockholm, and it is quite windy outside my windows. SMHI calls this a class 3 warning. I feel pretty confortable where I am at the moment.

It has been a good day today. I bought some new facial products from my favorite brand Clinic and a new Björn Axen salt water spray for my hair. The woman in the store gave me some free 3 step products from Clinic. Thank you! It is so important to take care of your body. Though there are too many people who don’t seem to care at all. I used to be like that. The only thing I have always been taking care of my whole life is my hair. I Got bullied a few times, because the other dudes called me a girl! Haha! :) Kids.. And the funny part was that they all loked like shit and didn’t get a single girlfriend! Way to go parents! *Thumbs up*

I can honestly say that I am NOT going to the gym. I have always liked playing sports. I did my whole youth. Football, Marshal arts, Indoor bandy, Basketball, Skateboarding, Soccer, Snowboarding, riding BMX and other bikes etc. I miss doing it, a lot. But I don’t feel tempted to work out at a gym. It is not my thing, Yet. And the gym cards are SO expensive.

I ordered new glasses yesterday! Woho!! They look exactly like I imagined them to look like when I finally found them. My old ones are starting to fall apart. I got annoying scratches on my shades. I’m so looking forward to put them on! :D

Would you like to have a piece of this Angry pizza? Haha, it is so cool!

Me and my brothers Simon and Johan are big Forza Motorsport fans. We play a lot together online. We always have a blast together! Just like old times in our sofa 10 years ago. :) I sometimes take pictures of us driving together. The photo features in Forza is simply AMAZING! If you get the camera settings just right, some photos are impossible to tell if it is a real life picture or in-game. I have a few pictures in my gallery. If you are interested, feel free to check it out!

Now I feel like playing some more 360! It really is the BEST console ever made! If Microsoft keep playing the cards right, I believe they can make the next one even better! Remember to keep the best from the 360! Sony, I do not have much to say to you.. The Uncharted games may be one of the best games I have ever played in my life. But ONE title is not enough to make a console great. I really can’t understand why people choose PS3 over the 360! Sure, Blu-Ray is awesome and the player in the PS3 is REALLY good. But.. then what?? Where is the love for videogames? Why choose to give the players free online play if the service stinks?! Why keep a menu system that is ugly and boring as f*ck?! I think the PS2 is probably the best console before the 360.. For ONE reason – THE GAMES! The games where AWESOME! And there where TONS of them, just like on the 360! The games ROCK! Sure Microsoft had a bumpy ride in the beginning when they first launched their brand new console. But they managed to turn the game around, literally. They made their new version stylish and quite. They released Kinnect. A groundbreaking new device and a totally new way to experience games. They keep updating their Dashboard, to keep it fun and up to date. I LOVE MY XBOX! (And I did NOT own the first one).

I feel so luck to be alive in this time era. I feel blessed to be able to swipe my fingers on my phone to read the news, or to tell my phone to play my favorite music. Or to be able to play my games and watch my movies in high definition with incredible digital mind blowing sound. I am so looking forward to experience more groundbreaking new games and technical advancement in my life.

I love my life.

Work hard, play hard..

Hey :)

I think you have noticed that the activity here is reduced. The reason is that I am working 9 hours a day. We are currently working on one of the largest electronic business projects ever to set foot in Stockholm City. I am really proud to be a part of this. We (by we I mean me and my colleagues) are working really hard and I think the pay off will be legendary. I still have to be very secretive about everything so far. Stay tuned.. ;)

Last weekend Liam was here. :) we finished the first Uncharted game at last. We really enjoyed playing it together. After the credits he instantly held up the cover for Uncharted 2 and said “John, let’s play this now..”. :) So next weekend we will continue our next adventure together. Great games! Best on PS3.

Last night I finished the final Gears Of War 3 act. It felt good to pet an end to the series. Though I am pretty sure Epic games will cintinue making the series, but perhaps they’ll wait for the next generation consoles. And in my opinion Gears 2 i still the best one in the series.

Since Halloween is closing in.. and it is midnight in 15 minutes, it is time to finally start playing Dead Space 2.

I talked to some of my close friends a week ago. We discussed wich difficulty you should play a new game on, you first play trough. One of them thought that “normal” is the best way to experience a game for the first time. His argument was that he want to have the story served on a silver plate.

But I think he is wrong. Todays games is getting easier and easier. One of the reasons is that, more and more people who are not used to play games, discover the magic world of video games. I guess that the gaming industry want’s to think “Well, your mother should be able to pick up the controller and play”. I don’t really think we are there yet. Perhaps when my generation are all grown old. :)

I always play games on the HARD difficulty the first time. Normal is too easy.. You rarely die, you just float through the story with minimum effort. That is NOT hardcore gaming. Even if you play the game 20 times on the same difficulty. I want to experience moments of frustration. I want to feel mentally and physically fatigued. I want to feel the adrenaline running trough my vains when I am SO close to beat that impossible act. I want to play some parts over and over again until I reach perfection and complete the “impossible” task. I want to feel the satisfaction when I beat the final boss, and know that I did it HARD! ;)

Dead Space 2 is installed and ready.. Here we go!

Uncharted day

Have you guys ever used Tradera? It’s like the swedish e’Bay. It is addictive as hell. Haha! I usually buy video games there! I recently bought the first and second Uncharted game, since I still haven’t played them yet.. Yeah, I am kind of ashamed about that.. :P I really look forward playing through them both! I also got the Need for Speed Shift 2. It looks really good and is a good completion from Gran Turismo 5, since GT5 is more of a simulation and Shift 2 a “semi-simulation” with an arcade twist feeling. ;) The last NFS I played through was Need for Speed: Underground.. that was a loooong time ago, right?!

At the moment I’m watching Sharkville on National Geographic HD. Paula is asleep beside me and Liam is playing with his trains and little cars on the floor. It has been a good day so far. Erling, Paulas dad is coming to pick up Liam in an hour, he really wanted to visit his grandparents. :)

I’m really looking forward to the Shy Remixed release on friday!! I’m so proud of my remix of Broken Hearts. From the first time I heard the original BH I fell in love. Since this is a track with a little dedication to me. :) So when I heard that I actually was going to remix it, I got really excited about it. I made the arrangement in about 5 hours over a night. And then I continued with the track on the next day with some help and ideas from Paula. She actually came up with the lowpass filter idea on the chorus and that made the track so much more dynamic!

I really hope you would like to support it on friday! It will be available on iTunes and Beatport. It will probably take about 2-3 weeks before it is released on Spotify, I’ll keep you posted about that too.
