Windows BLUE, what's on your wishlist?
What's on your wishlist for the next Windows update?
- better search (All, Apps, Settings, File)
- more personalization without mess with regedit (i.e.:filetype icons, start screen backgrounds, etc...)
- more out-of-the-box features
- better standard apps (and many apps don't have a interface in docked mode)
- better windows tiling (modernUI too), magnetic windows edges on desktop
- modernUI apps work everywhere (WP8, W8, W8RT)
- apps can run independently of Start Screen (i.e.: multi-monitor setup)
- rebuild of old dialogs (i.e.: mouse/screensaver settings dialogs are from 1995 or 1998 or 2001?)

Drakan: Order of the... END
So I finished another old game.
Drakan has proved a winning combination of action and adventure with an interesting history.
A few bugs here and there, and sometimes the gameplay is limited to collecting this and that thing to continue, but in a never boring way.
After finishing the game you can find Rynn and her dragon Arokh in the next chapter called Drakan: The Ancient's Gates.

Drakan: Order of the Flame - MOD - and another patch
There is a "new" patch for Drakan to resolve the start bug and a MOD to add some fancy things.
I have yet to try it ... but now I would prefer play the game without mod...
The mod seems to be unavailable now...
Some screens:
"This is unofficial patch for Drakan that solve two of major problems with game (Alwarren exiting crash and Start Game crash). All it's content will be included in Drakan 10th Anniversy as well. Develeoped by Shelim&Kronikarz"Take a look: http://www.moddb.com/mods/drakan-10th-anniversary/downloads

Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy): Game Over!
Graphically it is excellent for the period, the story gets a little weird towards the end, but it certainly deserves to be played.
It is an advanced graphical adventure that combines different elements of gameplay and its style will surely be used on Heavy Rain (which I still play, next time).
The final I got out of my game session is: good.
Thank you QD!
And now some screens:
