These are afew of my favourite things...

(Left 4 dead 2 (above))

I have afew interests, of course I like music but alot of people do that so I'll go for my other interests.

I'm interested in weapons, design, the physics behind them and the dynamic range of them. There are alot of guns circulated around the world a gun everyones heard of is the Kalashnikov 1947 shortly as AK-47. My favourite rifle is the SA80 british model which is l85a2. (Picture below) a british soldier wielding the gun on a rifle range, a 6x scope. Also an underslung grenade launcher. The l85a2 is of the bullpup variant (Ammunition clip is behind the trigger) the older l85a1 used to have an issue of the clip falling out so it was a good upgrade to the rifle.


The entirity of my youthful life was about the military my dad was a soldier in the british military where he was based in Northern Ireland and West Berlin, both times facing imminent danger from the opposing side, In Ireland he was shot AT never hit when he was just fixing an aerial. In West berlin he and his squad were prepared for the Russians to attack and were trained to stay up for 72 hours and hold back the russians until backup arrived. Fortunatly for me and him that never happened. The military have always interested me mainly the british and Russian forces which are both atleast once extreme powers.

Finally in this boring list, my favourite games.
I'm into the real war simulation of combat that requires skill and thinking (Not so good at the latter) latest being ArmA2 it is highly modfiable which in short means theres alot of stuff made from other gamers like me, I've added alot to it from a 10gb game to a 30gb one with the mods. I know this bit will sound lame but a Star Wars mod for it is out soon which I'm slightly looking forward too, at current I'd have to say my favourite game is left 4 dead 2. (http://steamcommunity.com/id/gardiad is my gaming profile) I play left 4 dead 2 with my friends Kelly, Storm and her husband Wolverine (In-game names) I've played about two whole days of left 4 dead 2 in the last two weeks which is a bit much but hey, I'm unemployed :P
I think personally I'm very good at it some people agree some don't but it's pretty much fighting off zombies but there are 'Special' zombies :
Spitter : Spits acid onto the floor which hurts survivors
Charger : A man with a huge right arm who runs into people grabbing them and slamming them down onto the floor repeatedly
Smoker : Has a very long tongue which he wraps around a survivor and starts to crush them like a snake.
Jockey : A small zombie that laughs disgustingly and leaps onto survivors heads dragging them around
Boomer : A fat zombie that throws up bile that attracts zombies, when it dies it explodes in bile.
Tank : What a man would look like if he did 10,000 bench presses a day, a huge infected (and the strongest)

I think I've rambled on enough (:

Keep smiling
