So i finally decided to go and get a hair cut after having my curly 10 inch mop for ages and i have to say i can't believe i left it so long. It feels weird not having long hair now, i got a good 5 or 6 inches taken off, but atleast i can see clearly when i tilt my head or bend down completely. That and i wont get mistaken for Jesus anymore.

Also pulled my thumb out and got some gaming time in recently with my new purchase, Dawn of War: Platinum Edition from STEAM. The package includes the original DoW, Winter Assault expansion and the Dark Crusade stand alone. I missed DoW when it first came out since i haven't got much love for RTS games, other than Rise of Nations, but i find myself slowly coming back to them recently.

But seeing videos of Starcraft 2 and Dawn of War 2 i find myself really wanting to get back into thise genre that i've ignore for so very long. And thankfully the DoW series has been a blast in helping me do it. Currently going through the Dark Crusade single player campaign as the Tau Empire and kicking arse for the greater good.

I havent ventured into online play yet since im still getting the hang of each different army but i've found a secret love for the Tau. Space Marines and Orks may be cool but the Tau just appeal to me more, mainly because i love stealth capturing control points and such like.

Other than that i've been playing a little bit of a less well known game, Peggle. If you preordered the Orange Box through STEAM you'll remember getting a Valve themed version of the game for free, it got me hooked and i payed the £5 for the "deluxe" version which is even better. Its a good game and a great time waister if you just want to pass some hours of boredom. Been trying the challenge games where you need to score 300,00 for each level to complete it. Pretty difficult if i'm being honest but good fun none the less.

Speaking of STEAM related games i have to say i'm disappointed to not see Bionic Commando Rearmedon there upon its release. I heard rumour and then someone did say it was fact that Capcom were going to release it through STEAM aswell but that doesn't appear to be the case. I honestly slammed this game when i heard it mainly because of the increased price for the PC version compared to the console version. And tha fact it was a sidescroller, i had this horrid feeling it would just be some POS port but apparently buzz for the game is high in the PC community so i was hoping to give it a chance. Guess i'll have to go make a D2D account and download it, assuming its there at all?

But oh well with the Heavy update for TF2 planned for release on Tuesday next week i imagine i'll be back to playing TF2 a lot. Some of the achievement names for this class just make me lol. Then there is the mention of a new Meet The... video being release along with the heavy update aswell and apparently its going to be a special one. So my guess and hope is its the Pyro video so hears to hoping Valve reveal whether the Pyro is a man or a woman and end the argument lol.

Anyway cheers for reading Bomb Squad!
