MAX PAYNE





sorry folks! iam writing a post after a long time... During this period, i became a addicted gamer and it ruined me completely.. just now wrapped up the game and here comes my post..

Max payne, the name itself reveals its a one man show.. He's a police officer and the first scene itself is the murder of his wife and some bizarre incidents made him as the most sought "serial killer" in Newyork..This is the gist of the plot...

Max payne is one of the biggest blockbuster pc game evermade... It was unleashed in the year 2001... what made it so stupendous was its "SLOW MOTION SHOOTING"... He wont fight with the enemies, but his GUN does all the talking...Gun gadgets are fantastic...some of the fictional guns used in this game were... DESERT EAGLE, DUAL BERETTAS, PUMP ACTION SHOT GUN, SAWED SHOT GUN, DUAL INGRAM, JACKHAMMER, COLT COMMANDO, SNIPPER and some of the fictional bombs used were... M79, MOLTOV COCKTAIL AND GRENADES... i think i revealed all the gadgets...Every gadget used in this game are special in its own.. the way he handles the gun especially in slow motion makes u to open ur mouth for a big "WOWWWWW!!" and u can even see the bullets crossing you... (resembles matrix triology)


The game is so interactive that u will know wats going to happen next! The way the creators of this game gave an edge to the character is fantastic, his voice extremely manly, the way he jumps,grin,cry and sigh are extremely classic!

Most game freaks would have completed this game.. for new ones it will really gonna catch u and u wont come out of its web! Try it, its really a money worth!

Have A Cup of Coffee!

Its an awesome story, take a look..

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. The conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.

Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain-looking, some expensive, and some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to the coffee.

After all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is but normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases, it's just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink.

What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups and then began eyeing each other's cups. Now consider this: Life is the coffee, and the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and the type of cup we have does not define nor change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided us."

God brews the coffee, not the cups . . . enjoy your coffee.
