Yey. Like bmxing. But with a deck and four wheels. And no handle bars or brakes. Or bike frames or...
Skating. Good fun. And something I'm still not terribly good at but hey, we all get better...possibly. Anyways. I got my first board when I was five and it was a fish board with some kerazzy colours. Absolutely impossible to do any tricks on but hey such is life. Not that I could do any back then but thats not the point. There is a point to this part of the erm 'story' though. It was fun. It was fun to have your own vehicle. You could use it to travel laces. It was a damn site faster than walking and more fun to use than a bike. It was great. But then of course I got slightly older and the board seemed to get smaller and more out of date and slowly my interest faded.


roll on 1999
in 99 a game came out called tony hawk's pro skateboarding. I bought it and I loved it. It rekindled my skate boarding fire and for christmas I strived to get a new deck. And after much looking around, I got one. It was a crap one, granted, but it was still a board. And not a fish shape board either. A proper trickable board. After much practicing I was finally able to ollie. Not very well but I could. Then my brother got some ideas. The trucks on the board were no the best in the world. Okay, they were shit. He had recently found a snake board. A snake board with good trucks. Now skateboard+snakeboard trucks= Shit. Skating along and...crack. Scrape. Fall. Bang. Ow. Snapped the front trucks off and broke the base of the deck. End of the board! Ah well. The skating fire was once again slightly extinguished.
 

The enemy wont know what hit them? In this they will.
So ive discussed the graphical splendor and the weapons. But youve gotta kill something with all those weapons right? Well its a world war 2 game you idiot, youre gonnna be killing nazis. So you equip yourself with a springfiel and go round the corner and out of the trench. The first thing you see is a machine gun turret thats been blown up with a single nazi standing next to it. You notice him after a second through the smoke of the turret. Theres one problem. Hes noticed you first. He takes one random shot through the smoke before backing off. You suddenly hear him screaming something in german. Three seconds later a few of his mates pop up and decide to help him out. One taking cover behind a rock and nudging his gun over the top to fire at you. Another, not being able to find cover, drops to the floor and shoots at you whilst rolling around. The other hides behind the turret hoping that his mates will waste you for him. Just from this quick scene at the beggining you can tell that this is no ordinary FPS. The A.I is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Ive shot people and watched them fall to the floor. Thinking they were dead i walked away, only to find that they were slowly crawling away to find cover. Its great. Ive walked up to a wall thinking that id killed everyone only to find that there was one coward hiding behind the wall, who when i caught him, quickly jumped up looking surprised (yes there are even facial expressions). The A.I really is the best i have ever seen. Better than half life? I hear you cry. By far. Much better than half life.
