Why 0014? Because I'm Twice as Good as 007

by Rainier on Sept. 18, 2009 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT

So we've decided to use movie quotes as the title for the message of the day. It's not for a particular reason, aside from the fact that we like movies a lot, and it seems like a fun thing to do. That's as good as reason as any, right? Once we have comments re-enabled, you readers can chime in with guesses about the movie title (today's quote is from the upcoming "The Informant!" starring Matt Damon).

To stay on topic, we started watching "Duplicity" with Clive Owen and Julia Roberts, and while it's a bit slow-paced, it is quite entertaining ... well, at least up until the part where I fell asleep.

Gaming-wise, I finally checked out Resident Evil 5 on the PC, and oddly enough, the game doesn't let me play in DirectX 10. I'm sure my quad-core/Nvidia 9 series configuration qualifies, but it only gave me DX9 as an option. Apart from that, the game started out a bit bleh, but once I re-familiarized me with the controls, it's gotten a lot more fun.

I also grabbed Red Faction: Guerrilla, but that will have to wait until I finish RE5.
