As you start to work out whats going on its a first person shooter ....But with a twist!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead of knowing where you are going from the start you have to kind of Paint your way through it with a paint gun that slowly uncovers your surroundings. Have a look at the vid it seems like this guy has got some really good ideas for pushing what can be done with the first person shooter genre of games.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BrOw&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3096483932135993033-618852438472460296?l=www.sybrows.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.sybrows.com/feeds/618852438472460296/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.sybrows.com/2009/06/unfinished-swan-ian-dallas.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3096483932135993033/posts/default/618852438472460296'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3096483932135993033/posts/default/618852438472460296'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.sybrows.com/2009/06/unfinished-swan-ian-dallas.html' title='The Unfinished Swan (Ian Dallas)'/><author><name>sybrows</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02597517527474835514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='13722735344633232824'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3096483932135993033.post-5287627897438928280</id><published>2009-06-11T15:32:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2009-06-11T15:33:49.555+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Carnival'/><title type='text'>Desta-Nation @ Cowley Road Carnival</title><content type='html'>Desta cowley road Oxford invite 0001 Hob Goblin 11am-7.30pm then after party in the Bully 9pm-Late&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/pAnUMTamwOQ&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x234900&amp;color2=0x4e9e00"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/pAnUMTamwOQ&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x234900&amp;color2=0x4e9e00" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3096483932135993033-5287627897438928280?l=www.sybrows.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.sybrows.com/feeds/5287627897438928280/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.sybrows.com/2009/06/desta-nation-cowley-road-carnival.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3096483932135993033/posts/default/5287627897438928280'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3096483932135993033/posts/default/5287627897438928280'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.sybrows.com/2009/06/desta-nation-cowley-road-carnival.html' title='Desta-Nation @ Cowley Road Carnival'/><author><name>sybrows</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02597517527474835514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='13722735344633232824'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3096483932135993033.post-2801563997143212915</id><published>2009-06-09T16:44:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2009-06-09T17:17:44.944+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='uhura'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='saitenyo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sylar'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sybrows'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='star trek'/><title type='text'>Sybrows - BrOw Trekking across the Interwebs</title><content type='html'>Well through my own personal project to get some kind of web presence I have encoutered my shapeshifting, telekinetic, doppelganger that is Sylar AKA &lt;a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=sybrows"&gt;Sybrows&lt;/a&gt;....

Got down to the last two the agency said (but then again they are bound to say that to keep me sweet.)  Had a mental weekend out of commiseration and it has taken me till Tuesday to fully recover to be honest.  I must be getting old!&lt;br /&gt;Anyways my CV has gone over for another job in Abingdon.  It seems that all the jobs this agency has to offer are in Abingdon!&lt;br /&gt;As I am now running seriously low on cash I am thinking about doing some posters for a bit of freelance work to bring in a bit of cash while waiting for a proper job to come in.  I am sorting out Lou’s PC tonight for a bit of dinner so that’s a start :)   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the mean time through my sheer boredom and need to give my liver and empty wallet a rest I have been fixing my MP3 collection and  messing about with &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_7"&gt;Windows 7 Release Candidate&lt;/a&gt; some more. I am quite impressed with it though I don’t thing it likes my ageing system too much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those that don’t know it’s the newest operating system from Microsoft that is the successor to the much maligned Vista.  Windows 7 is now very near completion and looks to be a much more improved and polished product.  And it comes with a &lt;a href="http://digg.com/microsoft/Someone_at_Microsoft_is_Taking_LSD_PIC"&gt;seriously trippy wallpaper selection&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v31/sybrows/?action=view&amp;current=win7rc_03.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v31/sybrows/win7rc_03.jpg" border="0" alt="Windows 7 RC7100 Wallpaper"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v31/sybrows/?action=view&amp;current=windows7100_small.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v31/sybrows/windows7100_small.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Weird eh!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyways on that note i'm off for now.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the way that bar at the top is a selection of tunes that I will post up from time to time you have to press the little triangle to make it work though ;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Slaters &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BrOw&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3096483932135993033-5840755658509678710?l=www.sybrows.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.sybrows.com/feeds/5840755658509678710/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.sybrows.com/2009/05/back-on-horse-or-whatever-saying-is.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3096483932135993033/posts/default/5840755658509678710'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3096483932135993033/posts/default/5840755658509678710'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.sybrows.com/2009/05/back-on-horse-or-whatever-saying-is.html' title='Back on the Horse (or whatever the saying is !)'/><author><name>sybrows</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02597517527474835514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='13722735344633232824'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3096483932135993033.post-7483980293542229178</id><published>2009-05-14T11:41:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2009-05-14T12:13:45.127+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='first post'/><title type='text'>First Blog Post</title><content type='html'>Well here goes I have finally created a Blog so that I can write twoddle about stuff and post up bits and bobs that I have been up to!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currently I am waiting to hear back from a job that I interviewed for on Tuesday.
