Gaming Weekend

In this long weekend we had the wise thing to do was stay indoors, away from all the madness and anarchy. And by doing so I managed to get some gaming time on my PC and XBOX 360.

I have already wrote about completing Indigo Prophecy, so I’m not going to talk about it much now.I will Just say that it was a great game and enjoyed playing it.

Bioshock-2-1862

I also managed to finish Bioshock 2, I was a huge fan of the first installment of the game and I didn’t hesitate to get the second as soon as it got released. Plying as a Big Daddy rocks!!

Supreme Commander 2

I also had some time to download and try out Supreme Commander 2’s demo via Steam. Its a RTS game that looks really amazing. The game should be released today.\

Munch Cart 

I posted a few days ago about our little burger BBQ that we had using the Kobe Burger. This weekend I decided to not do anything and just enjoy the food. so we gave Munch a call.

We order a few Pizzas, mini burgers, lamp chops and a couple of orders of chicken.

Burnin' Burgers

They come equipped with every thing (2 grills, a cooler for the meat, prep area, cooking utensils and all the ingredients needed) you just need your serving plates.

The food was excellent, will definitely give them another call really soon.

Minimum charge is 50KD.

Burger on the Grill

Last weekend we had very nice weather hear, so we decided to have a BBQ. I usually do my own patties, but because this was sudden we decided to try the Kobe Burger.

Kobe Stack

So my wife picked up a dozen burgers from Sultan Center. It was a very nice burger with minimal effort. The burgers were so juicy and tasty. need to find a better bun though.

The Burger

I would love a real burger at the moment.

Yesterday we passed by Info Connect at the International Fair Ground to see what’s new. We weren’t expecting much from there except for some new DSL prices but we still had to wonder around checking stuff out before ManU/Arsenal – Egypt/Ghana games.

To our amazement we found a cleaning solution in an Tech/IT expo.

we ended up buying 3 of this AMAZING Kleaner :/

Also when walking around we noticed an unreleased Android mobile device on display in a protected glass case.

Yes it is the SonyEricsson’s upcoming X10. it will be the company’s first android device that should be available as early as next month.

Zidaneoo was also looking for a new laptop. So, we had a quick look around and saw an i7 and an i5 HP laptops that had a very good price. cant remember the exact pricing and specs. but I should have the up soon.

We took our time there wich made us miss both game’s kick-off. and when we got to Showtime’s booth i saw this.

Of course they were watching the Egypt game.

And when it was time to leave, it was raining and we were greeted with a lightnings show.

So, not much to say about the Expo. With the exception of semi-good ADSL prices.

 Gulf Run 5 Day 3

Yesterday was the third and final day of the GulfRun. The whole day was drag racing only. The disappointing thing is that not all the cars participated in the event, but it was still a lot of un. Took some cool pictures.

All good things must come to an end. Thank you GulfRun you were wonderful.

The Book Of Eli – Movie Review

The Book Of Eli

Yesterday, after the GulfRun, we went to City Center mall here in Bahrain to grab a bite an a movie. We arrived there late and ended up just seeing a movie and postponing dinner to later.

First of all, let me say I love Denzel Washington, and I really had great expectations for this movie. But I was disappointed.

The movie is nothing more than a Christianity commercial, and ended up pulling some stupid moves I hated from the movie “A Perfect Getaway” which is basically lying and making you think that something is true when its not just to pull a “Sixth Sense” Where this movie fails miserably.

I wouldn’t say I don’t recommend it, because I know a few people loved “A Perfect Getaway” so I will just say the I didn’t like.

Gulf Run Day 2

Today was a really good day, the weather was a bit hot but very pleasant in the shade. All drivers participated in the full track, and also we saw some compete in the drifting competition that somehow transformed into a doughnut competition.

I also got to jump in a BMW M5 (above) and a Caterham (below) and be driven around the track.
