Unreal 3 Out Soon

Hoho! R. tells me that Unreal 3 (a la Unreal 2007) is coming out on November 19th. There was a neat tech demo on Unreal 3's graphics engine a while back, so I'm rather interested in seeing what the new developers have done with the new technology, and perhaps more importantly, whether a new video card is in order *crosses fingers*

Anyway, haven't been updating this website as much as I'd like, mostly because of M2 -- Second-year med school is a lot more fun than I initially expected (and sooo much more fun than first-year). Just to clarify, on a test, you might get a case history as follows . . .

A 29-year old previously healthy man brought to ER after collapsing on sidewalk. Physical examination shows dilated pupils, a perforated nasal septum and a prominent callus on the right thumb. CT scan of the head shows an acute right frontal lobe hemorrhage.

. . . and you'll have to figure out that this is drug overdose -- the perforated nasal septum comes from route of administration (inhalation -> necrosis of nasal mucosa), the callus on the thumb is caused by flicking a lighter, and the hemorrhage is caused by the arterial vasoconstriction effects of cocaine. It's like Sherlock Holmes redux!

School stuff aside, did get a chance to marathon Kekkaishi with M., and was quite disappointed at the general wishy-washiness of one of the main characters when given a chance to turn to the dark side in exchange for untold power. For heaven's sake, if Sasuke can do it, it can work for anyone (hehe ^^)
