GamesOctober 1, 2006 2:58 pm

I am tempted to write about the loot I have gotten recently, but then I remembered a post by a blogger a couple of weeks ago asking more anime bloggers to blog about games or something like that. Since I play games almost as much as I watch/read anime/manga, I thought writing this post would be a good idea. It would probably be a better idea if I weren’t at college right now and I had more time to play games.

I think I’ll start with the game I probably play the most, Civilization IV. I’m sure I won’t have to explain the game to most of you guys, given it’s apparenty popularity. I’ve had the game for a while, but it would always lag at later points of the game due to the amount of material on the map. Thankfully, my new laptop actually has a GOOD video card, so I get to play this game at 1920x1200 resolution. I must tell you this now: if you are no fan of Civilization, I wouldn’t advise you to read this post.

It seems as though the first release candidate for Firefox 2 was released without me knowing about it. It’s a good thing too, since I was unable to use Firefox 2 Beta 2 on my laptop because it was somehow more unstable on this machine the old Viao. I had it uninstall it and install Firefox 1.5 in its stead. I could really feel the difference from 2.0 and 1.5. I really missed the close things on each individual tag and the automatic spell-checker. You guys can check it out here, too.

In other news, it seems as though some hackers have revealed to the public some critical flaw in Firefox’s implementation of Javascript with enough information for other people to take advantage of the flaw. It seems as though they did this, instead of using Mozilla’s bug bounty program, for the “for the good of the Internet.” Yea, I’ll certainly believe that when my computer gets compromised because of this. Thanks guys!
