replacing pain with fear-induced, adrenaline-rushed, monster attacking mayhem

Posted in gaming, love by wastefulspace on January 11, 2008

While I was driving to the office today, I remembered something really out-of-the-blue.

Rewind to 2006. I was finding ways to get over pain, I was belching smoke like a badly tuned-up car, my coffee expenses were rocketing sky-high, but as soon as I get home, the nightmares start.

And most of the time, I was at home.

I had to find something to do. So I plugged in my PS2, and went in a search for games that didn’t remind me of him.

Fat chance.

So I asked a friend to let me borrow some CDs, and he gave me Resident Evil 4 (RE4) among the mix.

Resident Evil was memorable for me. Back in highschool where PS1 had Biohazard, I remember flinging the controller and running for dear life from being scared to death of zombies, the sound effects and the really bad aura.

So I decided to go for it. After all,I felt sunk, it didn’t really matter if I was scared to death. In fact, the whole pain+fear+agony was enough for my masochistic tendencies. LOL

The first part was the crappiest. Adrenaline was pumping, the fear was multiplied, and each moan and each creak sent me jumping off my seat. Until I was beyond a hour of gameplay, then 2, until I went on. Getting new guns, getting new amo, continuing the plot, and still jumping every now and then from the vibrate of the cellphone.

Up to date, I finished RE4 around 2-3 times just to get the cooler guns.

I have no idea if it helped me, but I guess it sorta did. I was too busy feeling the fear that I forgot some of the pain, plus imagining every crazed, possessed, monster dude in the game was the guy, and I was head-shooting, suplexing, and beating them to a pulp, was a reliever.

I guess if I was going to be asked on ways to get over a guy, I would say.

Play RE4

A day of random sorts

today, i had plans to shop for a chest of drawers with ben, plans were turned around abruptly since my little sister had no company at home, so i tagged her along. which made me not do the thing i was planning. (which was to buy a chest of drawers).

we met ben at Timezone around 11ish. And went to EGG for a quick PS2 fest. Trying out the game I was chickening out for a long time already which the zomgzwtfbbqsauce Fatal Frame 2 : crimson butterfly. To prep me, I read up info (no spoilers) from the Fatal Frame 2 official site.

It was broad daylight. We had a cool plasma tv and the slim PS2 plus a controller with a faultyR2 button. I was the one controlling it at first, but when I saw the first appearance of ghosts…i freaked and let him controlled most of the parts. :P

after another few minutes of TMNT, and Metal Slug 6, we headed to Teriyaki Boy to eat, Chicken Teriyaki don for him, kani salad for me and tempura for my sister.

Enteng Kabisote was beyond my expectations. After seeing the failed Karma, I vowed not to watch any MMFF films anymore. But since here is my sister, who compromised Enteng for her wanting to watch Mano Po 5, I had no other choice. The review would probably soon follow.

After that Timezone fest. Played DDR after the longest time, the dance maniax Upper Right Sensor for center playing (or the Upper Left Sensor for 2nd Player) was busted. Tried the UFO catcher, and played HOD4. Zombies no problem. Something abour carrying ancient cameras, creaky sliding wooden doors and eerie fog all around gets me :|

A late afternoon snack at Cafe Breton with Roel and Harmony ended the good day.

To have waited for my sister who already went home :| was the pits. It was dizzy walking around calling about 20 or so times for her to answer…Gah. I already forgot to bring home some roast beef from dayrits :-<

well i’m glad i’m home. i got to talk with a certain friend of my mom’s who treats us like family. She asked me if I was the one who wanted a job in Shanghai, I told her “Why not? :D” She told me to apply :)… I’d be keeping that in mind…but not yet maybe…someday :) if i feel i’m ready :D

dammit, okay star wars episode II isn’t what i’ve been expecting at all. and yes i have to finish my deadlines now or be doomed to eternity later. so i won’t blog much, the layouts i’ve fixed for my site will be postponed till the nth and i would officially be detaining myself from eating and sleeping and to work on this. Now that i am having a bad case of writer’s block.

i just got snail mail from poetry.com saying my poem was chosen for the audio compilation. this is the second best thing that happened today.

The best thing that happened today is we play 3 hours of battle realms and we didn’t lose. Not once. to stuffy old zymeth. Haha! Take that! i have strengthen my strats with the help of jr. and few miscellaneous wolf tips from rrl and jep. thankiee.

jin then nosied his way to the pc to play a lil 1 on 1, which struck me laughing silly as jin’s peasants killed his spearman.

all the way saying “run my peasants, run!” vetz and i doubled over with laughter.

by the way, anyone knows there a decent and not so expensive digital cam / digital cam / web cam?

gotta go work…

typing this offline…oh, wait, i’m online again… whee. i have this uncanny feeling of weirdness again. (it keeps on attacking me, and frankly i’m out of tranquilizer darts to keep me sober.) gling even told me i’m just not myself today.

okay fine i miss him okay?. i’ll stop(will try to) typing up mushy sentences here, i can hear you barfing already. and i’m being whiny.

and so here i am. thinking for another layout….my version 3 would probably be version 3.99 hehe well exaggeration… i’ll have to fixed up my writings so they won’t be too sloppy, yet they won’t be about a hundred pages. the guestbook is half-finished. just need a decent image to go way up there and it’ll be set.

what’s a link exchange? i know it sounds stupid but is that where you exchange links? you give your url to her and vice versa? (okay not only am i freaky, i lost a couple of brain cells in the process too)…

i am willing to make link exchanges… =) (if you want your links here…that is) drop me a msg on email or on the guestbook all found in the complains part of the site.

i hate zymeth (the most intelligent AI in battle realms) he(she?(it?)) keeps on killing me and killing me and killing me and killing me and killing me and killing me and killing me….(you get the picture)

all because he trains faster than i do…when he reaches 80 something i’m only at 60…

which makes me vulnerable…yep, vulnerable, you know like sheep-in-the-big-city type of vulnerable?

which is totally an oxymoron, since i’m a wolf in BR.

anyone interested in helping the unfortunate one, you know where the complaints are…*sigh*

nothing like a good strategic br to whip up the nerves and calm your system…

oh by they way thank you for the table layouts ♥ . i was absolutely touched *smiley* it was a nice game of br don’t you think? ;) we handled those wolves and lotus(es) good! *high five*. and by the way, all your units can hang by my territory anytime they want, ;) just like those cute archers hahahaha =).

i have a thing for those lovable horses in battle realms.especially when they get close to the peasants….hearts just float up the screen like the :lovesigh: smiley in the PEx forums….hehehe *happy*
