News News News

It's hard to catch up with news especially if you're working in a place where Internet connection is limited. Well, cant blame them..it just for security purpose. It seem only 3 news im interested over the past week and they are :

1) Phil Harrison Quit SCE.













The first thing i said when i read this news is "WHAT THE F**K???" Now a man who responsible making me buy PS3 leave Sony?. I must say he is a damn good speaker and know what he was talking about instead of bullshitting about the sales number. I dont know what is Sony thinking and how Sony gonna replace him but 1 thing i know for sure, Sony lost one of the best PR people in the world. Anyways Phil, Good Luck & All the best to you

2) MGS4 Got a Released Date.







The Banner above is worth than a 1000 words. I already marked on my calender for June 16 is the most anticipated date in 2008. Metal Gear will rule the world!!!!...*ahem*, just kidding. Anyways, Konami has setup MGS4 to be worldwide release which means, all territories will get MGS4 on that date.

















To make thing more sweeter than a can of Vanilla Coke, they planning a Special Edition Box set which you can see the picture above. MGS4 game + Metal Gear Saga 2.0 video + Tin Can Box. So far, this one is intended for Japanese market. For US market, Konami still didnt give any feedback yet. Hopefully the US & Euro version also get the Limited Edition. Speaking of Disc, MGS4 will use 50g Blu-ray Disc but from recent interview with Kojima, it seem 50g is not enough for HIS VISION of MGS4. WTF? Someone give him the prototype 100g blu-ray disc now!!!!

If you guys has been wondering "why 50g is not enough?", it's because he dont want to compress the data (texture, sound & etc). For Hideo Kojima, No Compression = Top Quality. Well, it seem he's a perfectionist and sometime having a perfectionist as a Game Designer is great because we can assure the quality of the game they deliver will be a top class.

Just for laugh, 50g BD is not enough for MGS4. If they come out for Xbox360, maybe we will see this boxset :P




















Dont even think about compression. I already said before, Kojima dont want to compress his game. In the mean time, keep an eye on the Countdown time at the upper right of my blog


3) MGS4 + 80g PS3 US Bundle.

















The biggest news and i somehow expected it, Sony will released MGS4 + PS3 bundle. The best part is, it's the 80g version...not the 40g like Devil May Cry 4 bundle. Im planning to get the US bundle but it seem one of the supplier said it may cost RM2000+.

F**K the price, i'll get it no matter what!!!. In fact, it's the NTSC U/C version, so i can play MGS Essential Collection on PS3. having 2 PS3 is not a problem at all. Now where can i find extra money for this :D

Morally Gray

This term mainly used to show that there's no good or evil. In fact you dont know which one is good or evil. You just do the thing you think right . I can bet most of us has been in this situation before and we just do what we think right and hopefully the thing will so on as smooth as possible. I used to get some feedback from people saying "you cannot do that..you should do that...bla bla" but at the same moment i also thought that what im doing is for my myself. It doest matter whether it will do good or bad to you..all the matter is me. And thus putting me into the 'Morally Gray' situation. Infact im already in this business for a long time pushing back to my secondary school year.

Taken form the PS2 game poster below titled Shin Megami Tensei:Nocturne (Shin Megami Tensei means Reincarnation of True Goddess), the question is...

what IF the road to salvation & path to hell are both paved in blood? Which one will you take?


Or maybe you didnt follow any of the given path, you just make you own path and destroy anything that try to stop you. MegaTen series always deal with moral choices and it's a great way to test out your real character.

As quoted from Kamen Rider Kabuto,
"Even the devil's whispers can sometimes sound like an angel's voice".

Paradise City

Artist(Band):Guns N' Roses

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home

Oh yeah..i like this song and it's a great theme song for the latest Burnout games, Burnout Paradise. As i promised, i bought Devil May Cry 4 & Burnout Paradise along with Motorstorm. By the way, i already finished Devil May Cry 4 in Normal difficulty mode :P .

New Phone

Yerp..this is my new phone, Nokia N82. Equipped with 5 megapixel camera + WiFi which make reading RSS feed is a bliss.

The quality of the picture?...the picture above itself were captured by my sister N82 phone and i purposely put my Dualshock 3, God of War 2 & UT3 at the back just as a prove that im not leeching this picture on the web.

Oh..and for the side note, im getting my Burnout Paradise this Tuesday, Motorstorm on Wednesday and Devil May Cry 4 maybe on Friday or if im out of luck, next week :P

Life's A B!tch

or at least Donald Trump said so. You wont believed how stupid people is nowdays. There's someone contacted me, someone i know and tell me "We can settle the money thingy by invest in stock". Please, get back money in 10 days?...what if the stock suddenly dropped ?. Dont treat me like a primary school kid even though i know a little about stock but i know the risk involved in there. My colleague already lost nearly 5000 bucks by doing the same thing. Yes, 5000 is consider small but it a big amount for an average people like me in which to get the same amount, we need to save up nearly a year.

so my advised to that 'someone', if you want to do it...you use your own money, if you did get double or triple..pay your debt back to me

New Additions This Month

Two new PS3 games were added to my library. And those two are Call of Duty 4 & Unreal Tournament 3.

Another two (hopefully can get 2 or else stick with 1 first) will come at the end this month. It's Burnout Paradise & Devil May Cry 4.


It seem that I'll be pretty busy in weekend for February.

Two-O-O-Eight

In a couple of hours we can safely said..."GTFO 2007 , Here come the bitch 2008 " . LoL. I must admit...next near 'can' be great for me. Well, at least for my birthday... 08/08/08. What a freakin nice number i got there.


I opt to stay in my house and kill Zeus in God of War 2 i bought recently for my PS3 instead of go & join the crowd of crazyass people that celebrate it on the street. Why? let me make a comparison.

Stay at home:

• sit on the comfortable couch
  
• playing PS3 on my HDTV
• air-conditioned room
• can eat what ever i want
• wear simple clothes
• can sleep whenever i want, wherever i want

Go out & have a partyyyy!! :

• girls
• girls
• girls....shit, she's a guy
• wet & sweaty
• FCUKING HOT..and i mean the temperatures
  
• end up sitting on the side road...if worse, cant even sit down because too damn crowded
• tired but cannot sleep....and that suck

That pretty much sum up how "staying at home" > "party outside".

Oh, before i forgot..the only fun part in celebrating New Year's Eve is during the first 5 minutes after Midnight. After that, everything is normal again, just like nothing big ever happen. If you count that in PLUS the time you join the crowd from 8 pm, it's a freakin' waste of precious time.

Actually, last 3 weeks i thought of something. What is the worst thing you ever see in your life?. For me, the no 1 spot goes to "watching hindustan movie preview on tv without a friggin' subtitle". I dont know whether the guys at the tv stations a dumbass or a moron, but 1 thing for sure..that guys think we're born with the ability to translate other language on the fly.

What the point showing a preview which you cant understand a jack about it?. Man, the world become weirder and weirder on every second and i dont expect in 2008 things will become better than this year.


Anyways..Happy New Year....

I think it's time for me to forget that 'someone'. *sigh* Now im off to kill Zeus ..again
