Need for Speed Payback - A Screenshot Showcase

Cruising on the Highway

Blasting Pursuers Away

A Blood Red Beauty at Night

Inside a Sieve of Shadows

Immediately after buying a Lamborghini Huracan. Got so excited I even forgot to hide the UI.

Depths of the Canyon Await!

Might as well burn bridges with speed

The prized Koenigsegg Regera. Payback lets the player drive it once in a heist mission before locking it away until the end.

Outta my way!

A serene space in an otherwise noisy city

The Beast stirs up some dirt in its wake

There's light at the end of the tunnel, just go straight ahead

The Huracan takes a tumble

Drifting past the casino

Another great capture ruined by my excitement

Way to crash a Lambo!

Where's the fire?

Thrusters fired with full capacity

An empty road and some sun - perfect day to race

Road signs matter little to rebellious racers

Killer decals right there

Royal blue for a royal ride

Waiting for the crane...

Another cop car ready for the junkyard

I see you on my tail

Flying around in the construction yard

Doesn't get any more pompous than a gold-plated Lambo

Nocturnal showdown and a sparkling getaway

It's all about to become a blur...

Must have been an electrifying pursuit

Didn't know the Roadster featured in NFS Payback; that's quite the lift-off!

Harry Potter Crafts #1: Advanced Potion Making by Libatius Borage (Hogwarts Potionbook)

While my mates and colleagues are all doing something or the other to help them get a job three years from now (or even before that, depending on the person concerned) (FYI, I'm in the first year of my Bachelor's programme as I write this post), I have been whiling my time away doing unproductive work (which effectively means that I'm doing nothing). They are building their skill sets so their resume gets laden with attractive features while I am still figuring out how to make a resume. So, these holidays, the least I could do was to complete my unfinished works if I was not going to start anything new. One of these works was a handwritten manuscript of Hogwarts potion-book "Advanced Potion Making" which Harry and friends use in their sixth year of schooling. I was always fascinated with the potions depicted in the books and movies and as a child, I used to pray for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to be real. Of course, I eventually realised that...

So this is what being down feels like.

So this is what being down feels like. Writing something and just to save yourself from having to think much about the title, putting the first line up as the title to the whole piece. Sitting on your bed with lots of things to do but no desire to do them. What once seemed pretty interesting and a productive way of spending time has lost its spark now. Things that could keep you going for hours on end now ignite a flicker of interest inside you that dies within a moment and you go back to sitting in bed and wondering if you should do anything or just lie down. Deciding every day to write something and even getting ideas, but failing to put them into words just because you lose interest by the time you switch your computer on. Even if you do switch it on and open Microsoft word and write a line that occurred to you while you were riding down the road, you cannot carry on further because the part of your mind that supplies ideas has run out of stock. Apparently, it works on...

A Serendipity for Godric I was rummaging around some of my old stuff just now, looking to clear up some space and discard useless junk, when I found a certain something that, I embarrassingly admit, I had forgotten about. This certain something was a eulogy written for me by my friend who goes by the pseudonym Godric Gandalf Dumbledore. He wrote this back when I was in XII standard which means, roughly a year and a half ago. I won't divulge his real name here. I apologize to him for forgetting about this eulogy. When he gave it to me on our farewell, and I read it when I got home, I thought of writing something similar and giving it to him but due to some or the other reason, I couldn't. When I read it today, I was overwhelmed by a similar desire. I am giving this desire a form for everyone to see and for my friend to discover. I will still send him a copy of what you are about to read but I'll be omitting the lines which you already have, so he wouldn't know that...
