Defiance: In The Drink Again
My driving is so bad in game, and what just happened, the pictures should be grouped together, in order of event.
1. Stuck...
2. I try to get un-stuck...
3. I lose the battle... in the drink again. This is where I log off for the night.
Note: I think this is the third or fourth time tonight I've accidentally driven into the lake. It was never deliberate damn it!

Haiku Halo
About a month or so ago I played Halo (Halo: Reach to be specific) for the first time on my brand new Xbox. Below are a bunch of haikus that were inspired by my first Halo: Reach experiences. And I really should go back and play more! Also, I should do some DayZ Haikus... maybe.
Have rocket launcher
Tip of the Spear, dead at start
Noob has lost the war.
So useless is Six.
Thirty seconds of combat.
Dead again, now dead.
Nothing like the high.
Hunters evaded or killed
Achievements unlocked.
Hunters! Oh shit! Shit!
Please don’t notice me Hunters!
Why don’t you just die!
Okay, going good.
What! Dead! What killed me now!?
Bloody suicides…
Yeah! Bang! Bang! Got ya!
Oops. Where did that cliff come from?
That’s right, dead again.
Dreadful at driving?
Don’t let random AI drive.
They are even worse.

A Little Minecraft: Because it's a little too long for Twitter
Wouldn’t it be funny if I described recent Minecraft experiences to people at work.
“I was on my friend’s Minecraft server, out gathering wood in the jungle, as you do, happily chopping away. When I decided to go back to my hidey hole I realized I did not know which direction I came from! And every side of this overgrown jungle looked the same! So I wandered off in a direction in the hopes it was the right one, but I just got more lost. Eventually I got my friend who was in “GOD” mode to come rescue me. He teleported me right to my house, it was weird his face filled up the entire screen for a second.”
I’m pretty sure I’d get some odd looks.

Dear Zombie Apocalypse Diary Day 6: Where I ride an old bicycle...
Had some company in DayZ last night… sort of, was on Skype with friends while playing, we all made it to the same server, but we never actually found each other on the map. But it was fun listening to a friend experience the game for the first time. I hear after I logged off, they managed to find each other on the map, just as it got dark.
Dear Zombie Apocalypse Diary…
A day in DayZ like every other day, a new beginning. I arrived somewhere on the coast, but I have no idea where, I forgot to pay attention at arrival. I ran in a random direction for a minute, and saw a lighthouse, but it was not the same lighthouse I’d seen on previous days.
Coming upon the lighthouse it was to discover something delightful! Leaning against the lighthouse, on both sides, were two old pastel green bicycles. I couldn’t resist, I sat on one, and rode it around the hill, up and down that hill for a few minutes, worked quite well. Unfortunately, I couldn’t figure out how to take it with me, and now I’m kicking myself, I should have just rode along with it, instead of leaving it on the hill. I guess I didn’t want the hassle of going back for it if I had to travel prone for any extended time. Oh who cares! I should have kept it with me as long as I possibly could. Lesson learned.

Dear Zombie Apocalypse Diary Day 5: Welcome to Elektrozavodsk...
Monday night, chose a US server, yet got night time… ok. This is going to be a short one.
Dear Zombie Apocalypse Diary…
Once again I’m a new survivor, finding myself on the beach, at Elektrozavodsk. This was my first time anywhere near this location, I was worried. It was night time, and I’d heard rumours about the dreaded Elektro being a bandit mecca.
Being that it was dark, I guess the one advantage was that the zeds couldn’t see me, the disadvantage, I couldn’t see them. But I kept on the move, trying to discover anything useful. Got chased by some zeds, but lost them quick, didn’t get a scratch on me.
After wondering around for a little while, I got tailed again, I ran, right into a building, there was a stairwell, and a very loud sound of flies buzzing, disturbing, I ran up it, to one floor, there was loot, I picked it up, and then ran up to the next floor, where there were a few more items to pick up. I now had a gun, an AK, it was loaded, I turned around and faced the stairs, ready for those zeds to appear. They didn’t, but I could hear them, loud and growly. I took a look around where I was, it was a small space, surrounded by windows and nothing else, no doors, no more stairs up.
So I waited, expecting zeds to come charging up the stairs. It was dark, those flies were buzzing, the zeds were growling. And then I heard it, gunshots below, the zeds were quiet. But the flies buzzing seemed even louder. More waiting, nobody came up.
After a while, I figured it might be safe to venture down, so started down those stairs, when I got there, there was someone at the bottom of the stairwell. They had a crowbar, I ran past them, announcing that I’m friendly. I was unharmed when I went past, but I did hear a suspicious ‘swish’. Then I ran into the ground floor room, I was almost out of the building, then I saw another survivor in a door way. Crouched, gun pointed at me. Before I even got a chance to say anything… a brief flash, and I was dead.
Note: Geez... where were these guys on Sunday when I wanted a quick death.
