Alien Isolation

Alien Isolation

I dove into Alien Isolation with a little of caution, I wasn’t sure what to expect after reading the mixed reviews that rated the game from phenomenal to sub-par. It seems like the game requires a good amount of patience and an open mind about how it should be played. Depending on the type of person who played the game, they either loved it or became irritated by the endless trial and error combined with the surprisingly extended length.

Living in southern California we get spoiled by the endless sunny days and lack of real rain or seasonal weather. So when we do get rain, it feels great. This November morning after a break in the rain I stepped out into the yard and captured a few photographs of water drops on our trees, plants, and vegetables. A few of them turned out decent enough to use as wallpapers.

This week on September 20th of 2012, I turned 42 years old. As my brother Antero the astrologer says, I’ve completed another lap around the Sun. I take a moment to reflect upon the last year and share my thoughts.

To celebrate the rare blue moon occurrence that happened this August I went out to photograph the full blue moon. My first attempt at photographing the moon turned out pretty good, so to honor the blue moon celebration I’ve made a wallpaper available to download.

As the sun was setting I had to pull over to capture the majestic beauty of it. The skys were clear as the sun was creating a glowing red skyline contrasted by the darkness of the mountain ridges in front of us. It make for a a classic sunset.

Gotta hand it to Rockstar, after so many years since the original Max Payne game they go out and bring the game back to life in a full on reboot. I have to admit, at first I wasn’t sure that they were going to pull it off, but after completing the game, impressively enough, they pulled it off and knocked it out of the park. This is my full review.
