Enough

I finally got enough of the comment abuse. I've closed the option to comment now that 92.000 spam comments is gone and deleted. Mind you, over 80 thousand of those over this year alone.

So, we're moving and upgrading while we do it. I'll let the interested parties know where and when I've moved the blog.

EDIT: Now that I think of it, I'm gonna link to the new blog right now and not bother with this old one. So go to the new and (soon to be) improved Time Tomblog

Third Eye View Of The Worldly Fuss

Its really true how knowledge increases the woe, meaning the more you know about things, the more you have potential for grief. Usually the distress is towards possibility of real trouble and not the actual trouble, since usually us humans have the capasity to adapt to these problems. But the knowledge of any trouble is what cause the most stress.

It is strange tho, when you look at it analytically. You get information on something which may or may not point to another thing and immediately one assumes the worst. Is this possibly the first stage of adaptation? The step towards being in terms with the state of things.
On the other hand, when everything then pans out as initially thought, the sense of relief is huge and one gets to feel lightheaded.

But still, we wind outselves up over nothing and get anxious over it...

Fallout 3 (and BioShock)

I've gotten information, in an roundabout way, that thre might actually be a Fallout 3 game on the way! Which is marvellous news of course.

Apparently the ongoing E3 2006 Expo has had some preview material available on the subject. For now, I'm going to settle on waiting for some actualy proof on this subject and only after I've gotten that I'll start whooping about.
Great news, none the less.

No Mutans Allowed (Fallout info center) claims that it was nothing more than a new poster, but hey, thats something none the less.
Fallout 3 screenshots surface @ GameSpot

EDIT: E3 has also had some ingame (or atleast game engine) pictures of BioShock, which is said to be the "sequal to SystemShock 2 in spirit" and should be out in early 2007. Which is all awesome.
