Year Two Semester Two Day One

So after yesterday's lessons I can say what two of my modules are about. More or less. We only had introductory lessons.

"Design methods and technology project" looks to be a practical unit where we get in groups and complete a project. We'll sort out the finances, objectives, feasibility analysis and everything else for the project I think then give a presentation on the whole thing at the end. This looks to be a 10 minute one which is a bit daunting, but at least its as a group rather than on my own. Then theres a 2500 report to write at the end which should be hard, but good enough to get a good mark on.

"Project Management and Quality Assurance" is more like the theory side of the other module. Its more about how projects are managed, rather than managing a project itself.

I have two more modules on Friday - Web Design and E-Business. These are self explantory really, but I might as well write about them again on here when the day has been done!

Uni Semester Two

The new semester starts officially for me tomorrow. My first lesson is 9 o clock and its a module called "Design Methods and Technology" which I don't know what it is. However I know it should be an IT unit, and at least both the lectures and tutorials are by the same person rather than two people. Then later on during the day I have "Project Management and Quality Assurance" which is taught by two people. No idea what that is, but it sounds like some sort of business unit, though its taught by the IT lecturers. I'll post here again after the lessons tomorrow!

Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion

So I bought this game on Christmas day, and have since played it for over 90 hours according to Steam. Here's a mini review of it.

I completed the story quest today, which is basically about how an evil lord called Mehrunes Dagon wants to invade the land the game is set in - Tamriel, which is like a big county in a country known as Cyrodill. You have to fight the forces of Oblivion (the name of the evil land) and help the heir to the dead Emperor regain his glory. I won't spoil anything, you can play it out yourself.

There are loads of side quests - at least about three per town. Then theres the guilds - Fighter's, Thieve's, Mage's and the Dark Brotherhood. The first three being self explanatory, and the DB being a group of murderers. You can join each guild and perform quests for them. You get access to their guild base and most of their items.

The actual gameplay is alright, but the only bad thing is that the caves are quite repetitive. You get many quests needing you to go into old caves, dungeons, catacombs, forts etc but really these are all the same as each other. The map is massive though you can fast travel to all towns, plus the places you discover on the road once you have visited them.

Thats all, I'd reccommend it as a game - its the best I've played in a long while! I've still got loads to play - 2 expansion packs and the last quests of the guilds which go on forever, as well as most of the Mages guild quests to do.

Youtube - JWLOFFICIAL

I'll be uploading videos again to youtube once I am back in my uni accomodation. I move back on the 26th so it'll be anytime after that. Look out for videos on Harry Potter 1, Aquanox and a few online games! I have at least 19 to upload so theres a lot to keep me going! Stay tuned....
