God Bless Zeus

After spending the whole day with MS(Malaysian Studies, but everyone knows it's all BS), I finally got to visit Holiday Plaza. Again. That's maybe the 6th time this week? I dunno. Maybe.

Anyway, I got there and asked the first guy if Modern Warfare 2 was out. He said he doesn't know, and that he's just a security guard.

So I went to the closest software shop and asked the same question. He said it may only come next week. Personally, I preferred the security guard's answer.

I walked all the way to the Mcdonald's section of HP glancing at each and every store knowing that it was gonna be just like any other day.

After making fun of the McTreat ice cream vendor and looting all the free ketchup I could get, I headed back out. It was raining too, and a James Blunt song was playing in my head to set the mood.

All of a sudden I nearly whack into a DVD rack(this part of the story is true), and there it was; almost like a gift from Zeus:

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 PC DVD.


And then, (because Zeus works in mysterious ways) I saw RM 45 price tag.

I had RM30 in my wallet.

What's worse is that Zeus KNEW that I spent exactly RM15 that morning. I was starting to doubt that all those sacrifices of goats and lambs to Zeus were in vain.

Even though I had used up my "50:50" and "Audience Vote" lifelines, I knew I could count on the old "Phone a Friend".

The hard part was trying to explain to Julian the whole situation, with how many people would be sharing and all that. Especially since I had only 30 seconds.

He saved the day.

And then we waited for the 1 and a half hour long 3-dvd installation to complete.

It's pretty awesome. The single player was a little better in COD4.

I CAN'T GET THE BLOOODY MULTIPLAYER TO WORK!!!!!

at least there's spec ops missons.
