Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath mini-review

Leave a reply

I finally finished Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath (OSW from now on) a few weeks ago and thought I would write a quick review of it. What a great game. Highly underrated. I did a quick search for it at GameRankings.com and the average review for it is an 87%. I would agree with that rating and in fact, I think I would give it a higher rating – maybe a 95%. It is a truly great game. I enjoyed the hell out of it. The graphics, story, voice-acting, and even the weapons are superb. It ranks up there as a top 5 Xbox game in my book. If you haven’t played it, rent it or buy it – the price has dropped to $29 last time I looked. Well worth it.

I just rediscovered Audioscrobbler….I had heard about it before but couldn’t get it to work. It keeps track of what muisc you have listened to. You download and install a plugin into your favorite MP3-playing program (I use Foobar 2000) and then it keeps track of what you listen to. Here is an image that shows the last few tracks I have recently listened to:

So, what are YOU listening to?

Slashdot image recognition – WTF?

I can’t remember my slashdot login so I wanted them to email me my password. You know those images you have to look at then type in the letters that are in the image (and the letters are all squiggly or colors/patterns go through them)? They are called captchas. Take a look at these from slashdot:
WTF?
Is that dkiiymi?

WTF?
WTF is that first letter?

I am a HUMAN and I have a hard time telling what letters those are!
