House of Brews

On Thursday the 25th of February HoB was witness to an epic battle of life and death. The stage was set on http://www.livestream.com/silencertv, twin's newly established CamWhore channel.

A epic Battle, lasting more then 4 hours, ensued and only one has stood victorious...

As the clock struck midnight and Thursday was spent, so was one more handle of Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum as Awesome Dan stood triumphant over the empty shell of his enemy. Morgan had been defeated, but at what cost? Scared from battle, Awesome Dan dragged himself to the kitchen floor bleeding what we could only assume to be pure liquor and bile before eventually being found by his wife who promptly notified poison control. He was rushed immediately to the hospital in what he describes as an "amber-lamps" and was admitted with a Blood Alcohol Content of 1.231. After a successful stomach pumping and plenty of painkillers, he was returned home later that night such that he might live to drink another day.

You're a Hero to us all, Dan. Get well soon.

A few of us have jumped on the Empire: Total War bandwagon recently since the game is being offered on steam for a mere $10.19 all this week. Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of one of the most celebrated games of 2009 (it's been out for less than a year) right here before the sale runs out on the 15th at 10am Pacific time and you're stuck paying $30 for it again. This is a great deal for a great game, and I think you'd be surprised at just about everything it has to offer.

You can find it at the steam store at this link, or by clicking one of the awesome screenies below...

Our Warsow server hosted a tourney this week in which, as I understand it, our very own quake master Mr. Pinch-Nipskies has recently had his ass entirely handed to him. If that's not enough evidence to the kind of competition this game has to offer, I don't know what is.

To get in on the action on this quake-on-roller-skates-pinball-machine-of-death game, check out this thread in the forum where you can read up on what it's all about and find links for installing the sucker.

In any case, here's some screenies to whet your appetite.

Oh yeah and before I forget: it's also completely free...
