GTA4 - Trailer 2 | Grand Theft Auto IV

Fun fun fun!!!

I wrote a post last January about Battlefield Heroes, geee, and I had not even had the opportunity to watch the trailer yet! Now I got the videos but could not play yet, it looks very, very fun and crazy! I hope the gameplay i as cool as it seems. I am more of a realistic game player (Battlefield2 and hopefully sooooon BF3, America's Army...) but hey, why wouldn't I at least try it!?!

Enjoy!

and the Trailer #2

Natascha McElhone... so nice to meet you!

This evening, I met a charming women, simply like that, in my neighborhood, in Paris, France : Natascha McElhone. Actually, I am lucky enough to meet pretty often, nice, smart, beautiful and friendly persons, anywhere... Miss McElhone is special and I felt it a long time ago. I wrote about this good British actress already in this blog, since she played in the brilliant Californication serie with David Duchovny, among other series and movies. But this, was "en direct Live"!

Long hair, light and floating in the air as she looked like flying towards me in the rue Saint-Honoré, smiling. Tall, proud and elegant, she is even more attractive in the "real life" than on the screen. My mind didn't think twice, I stopped her! But of course, I did not have anything more clever to say than : "Oh! You are Natascha, Natascha McElhone, aren't you?!... euuh... Nice to meet you!..." #O_°#

Needless to say I blushed, pffff... Her friend husband was kind of trying to pull her politely, to keep on walking as they seemed to be in a rush for an appointment... I did not want to delay them but part of me would have loved to keep her talking and smiling... Kindness, surprize and wonder were shining through her eyes!

Next time? ;)

Battlefield Heroes : new, fun and... free

If you have liked Battlefield (1942, Vietnam, Battlefield 2...) and spent hours playing one of this FPS (First Personal Shooter), you will definitely look forward this summer 2008 to download for your PC this new game proudly developed by DICE and brought by Electronic Arts (EA) : Battlefield Heroes!

New graphics, obviously as you can see it on the picture ("fun cartoon-style shooter", like Team Fortress by Valve), but a new business model as well. Indeed, EA will release it as a free game (download only) and earn money on advertising and micro-transactions.

There's not many details yet, but you can read the Press Release here, or simply visit the official website : www.battlefield-heroes.com.


PS : Meanwhile, you still can (re) discover Company of Heroes (and its stand-alone extension : CoH Opposing Fronts), a spectacular and clever RTS game (Real Time Strategy) taking place in Europe during WWII.

Work hard, play harder!

Cashmere mafia, a 21st century "Sex and the City"?

With this new year just beginning and the Globe Awards just canceled because of the linging US writers'strike, I was actually surprized to see new series coming up. Lucy Liu caught my eye as I was reading on internet films news, the words "Season 1", "first episode" and then this catchy tricky title...Cashmere mafia. What did I need more to go and discover about it? :)

I have no expectation yet, I will watch and see if the magic plays on me. Have you seen it? What do you think?
