I've been trying to get into APB this week, and there seems to be nothing wrong with the game at first sight, but I'm still having a hard time getting into it. Graphically, it is better than CrimeCraft for sure. It's also more stable and better populated, but yet I find myself playing more CC than APB. Several of our gang members have already migrated over, so grouping up with them to run through the missions adds to the fun, but once a few have to tend to social matters, I instantly get bored and leave.
This weekend, we have no major plans apart from going to an art & wine festival, so we can catch up on some Netflix movies and TV shows on the DVR.

I seem to be having an issue with my gaming rig. When I'm playing games, my screen sometimes freezes, goes black for a few seconds and then comes back like nothing happened. It sounds like a video card issue, and I think it the GeForce 250 may be randomly overheating, so I bought a roomier case. Hopefully that will fix the problem. If not, then I guess I'll try the Radeon 5870 that's lying around.
Not much else going on. We watched Burn Notice last night and finished up "2012." Later today, we may go for a hike.

The weekend is around the corner and Sunday is 4th of July around these parts, so we might get together with some friends and put some meat on the BBQ. Normally there is also a big fireworks show, but the event has been canceled this year. Our dear mayor has been squandering the city's funds, so things had to be cut all over the place.
No other major plans, apart from going to watch a movie (maybe "The A-Team") and the good intention of catching up on some press kits.
