Seasonal Picture Dump
Following a really good review of GTA4 in my daily newspaper, Politiken, I was going to post a long-winded entry about the vast differences between game reviews in the mainstream press and reviews in the more specialized gaming press. Unfortunately, it looks like N’Gai Croal beat me to it. My entry was going to be a lot less opinionated and more observing, since I really liked Vigild’s review in Politiken, but apart from that, I don’t really know that I have anything to contribute to the discussion.
So instead, you’re going to get a random picture dump of photos I’ve taken over the last 2-3 weeks, because I love taking pictures and I love showing them off almost as much. First up is a batch of photos I took because the motifs remind me of various games - I’m really geeky that way. Then you’re getting a couple of random pictures too, because I’m a very self-indulgent person.

| Clearly they’re developing a lethal zombie virus in here. Or they’re controlling the national surveillance grid. Watching us all. | No game, really, the lighting was just hella good for photography that day. |

Tomorrow, I’m leaving for Malmö to attend the Nordic Game 2008 convention. Expect plenty more photos and a rundown of speaks I’ve attended when I return, Friday.

Hmm you may be right, but looking at the source photo, I think he’s adjusting his window shade:

Maybe you should ask those guys controlling the national surveillance grid for higher resolutions or better angles?

I don’t think I have clearance for such requests. Any attempt to gain higher resolution photos will just get my file flagged.

The people running national surveillance in Denmark are probably bored enough to let you know what was up.

They’re usually quite busy. We have a lot of really pretty girls in Denmark, if you catch my drift.

You have evil thoughts. You should be under surveillance.
