Sony Playstation® 3 deployed in Malaysia !

hip-hip-hooray !! Finally, Sony Playstation® 3 was launched in Malaysia but it was a sad news for me because I din't own it during the launch date. If not, I think I most probability will be one of the hardcore fans who starts queuing on friday night.. haha too bad.. T_T

The event was held at One Utama shopping complex on the 20th September 2008 where it was situated at ground floor highstreet new wing. The suggested retail price (SRP) for a Sony Playstation® 3 is RM 1,500 (including tax) which it includes a 80GB Sony Playstation® 3 console and one dualshock® 3 controller.

Nevertheless, you can get the official launched package on the launch date itself which it includes a 80 GB Sony Playstation® 3, one SoulCalibur IV game, one selected additional game, one tote bag and one SoulCalibur IV game disc holder which are priced at RM 1,799. To make the launch event even interesting, the first 120 buyers will stand a chance to get cash voucher where 1st-3rd customer will walk away with RM 1,000 Sony cash voucher, 4th-21st customer will walk away with RM 500 Sony cash voucher, 22nd-50th customer will walk away with RM 300 Sony cash voucher and 51st-120th customer will walk away with RM 150 Sony cash voucher.

Besides, the launch event also included a 24 hrs gaming tournament where gamers are competing in SoulCalibur IV game to win attractive prizes which included Sony Bravia™ LCD TV and of course Sony Playstation® 3. Not to forget, there is also the PS3™ game girl competition where female contestants are competing in talent quest, Q&A and catwalk competition to stand a chance to win a 3D2N flight & accomodation to Hong Kong to represent Malaysia in the Asia Game Show and Sony Playstation® 3. For further information about Sony Playstation® 3, you can visit Sony Playstation website and Sony Style website.

By the way, here are some photos taken a day before the launch date with Wai Jin. Enjoy~ ^.^

Sony Playstation® 3 display units area.

Console and game testing area. Games testing which are Assassin Creed, Ratchet and Clank Future, Ninja Gaiden and Resistance.

Merchandise area where they are displaying Blu-Ray movie titles, Sony Playstation® 3 consoles, game titles and PS3™ accessories.

Last but not least, the queuing area. See the campers, so semangat nia!! the tiny tent owners were there since thursday. o O"

All the photos were taken by Wai Jin EXCEPT the queue area!! It was taken by me!! because he was too scared to take.. haha but credits to him and his handphone camera. =)

Although I was kinda depressed for not owning a Sony Playstation® 3 console but I'm also happy to see such a event was held in Malaysia. What we can see here is Malaysia are slowly accepting game industries which is a good news for gamers. Hopefully, gaming industry will keep growing in here and more events will be held like E3 and Tokyo Game Show (upcoming games introduction events). okay.. tired already.. Razer signing off~

One word.. S-T-R-E-S-S !!

2nd semester had commerced !! sigh.. it seems to be a very stressful semester where there are two subjects which i worried the most.. one theory subject which is System Analysis and Design (SAD) and the other one is a programming subject which is Databases and Data Structure (DBDS). This is because SAD need a lot of researches and understanding where DBDS depends on programming skills.. the other two subjects are Introduction to Software Engineering and Introduction to Artificial Intelligence.. also quite tough for a noob like me.. T_T

hmmm.. at the beginning of this semester, I already felt so stress.. I really don't dare to imagine the rest of the days.. haiz.. hopefully everything will be fine for me ler.. First of all, i want to say sorry to those dota and yam cha kaki.. I think I have to hide at home from now on !! I know you all sure said it is all excuses but I don't care what you all want to say about me ler.. I just want to study as much as possible.. I don't want to flop my studies anymore ahhhh !! but what i meant is I will go out less only ler.. not totally hide at home.. kakaka =P

By the way, here are some photos taken on last monday where one of my Apiit friend, Marcus treated us KFC for his belated birthday.. so kind of him T_T and hope you like the "unforgetful" present we gave.. "white tiger stripes" (btw, was Alvin's idea) hahaha xD

As you see from the picture, it is quite a sad case that Apiit will really turn "Guys into Gays" T_T .. just joking.. I haven't turn yet.. haha guess I will stop here ler.. everyone !! wish me some luck to able to go through this semester in a "silky and smooth" way.. haha =D

unknown "Special Person" revealed !

Yo ! sorry for the long delay.. was busy helping my dad on his stuffs and I kinda lazy in this few days due to rainning season ..

hmm.. let's see.. about the unknown "special person" I mentioned earlier.. and Miss Bunny Mahjong Girl keep asking me is it I got a girlfriend already? sorry my friend.. too bad your guessing is once again w-r-o-n-g.. haha =P

I don't think I'll get a special person at the moment.. maybe is part of my love cursed or maybe I was a playboy in the previous life and now got karma already. T_T

sob .. ok .. let's cut the fuss and reveal my "special person" ...

Ta ... Taaa ... Tada !!!!

The "special person" is in fact my first laptop. hehe .. Actually, I didn't plan to buy a laptop so soon. This is because i faced difficulties when group assignments occured. In the past, it was very difficult for me to communicate/work with group members during group discussion and also the computer lab in my college was always full. So, to solve all the hassles, it is better to get one now. Besides, she also can teman me during long break hours at college ler. so good. =) hehe.. ok .. Now, let's introduce her ...

She is Asus M51VR.

Her Specifications:

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo P8400 (2.26 GHz, 1066 MHz, 3 MB L2 Cache)
2 x 2 GB DDR2 800 MHz SDRAM
15.4" WXGA Color Shine LCD
ATI Mobility™ Radeon® HD 3470
250 GB 5400rpm Hard Drive
DVD Super Multi Double Layer Drive
8 in 1 Card Reader
1.3 Mega Pixel Web camera

Her score for Microsoft Vista performance ...

As expected, the graphic card does not give a great score. So, it was expected that she can't handle highly intensive games such as Crysis even in low details. Nevertheless, I can't conclude this statement yet because I haven't install any PC games on it but I will give it a try when I'm free. All in all, this laptop is good enough for me as in multimedia entertainment, programming, graphic designs, etc and I started to love her each and everyday. =D

Moments .. September .. 2008 ..

fwah !! there are too many things to look forward during this month. Too many things until I have to list them down.. haha

26th Sept '08
Previous semester results out !! Hopefully I pass every subjects. Praying hard. =O

29th Sept '08
My beloved 29' buddy birthday!! Edmund Yee !! =D

wahh.. this month is really like a bullet train ler.. keep going on and on from the beginning of the month without stopping.. so happening and scary too !! haha.. but there are two things i really.. really.. wish for. First. " pass every previous semester's subjects ". Second - " to own a Sony Playstation 3 ". But, if to sacrifise one of this wishes, I would choose to give up PS3 because I don't want to disappoint my parents and myself again for flopping my studies. hehe

Money No Enough II

Source: Moviexclusive

Movie Rating: 4.5/5

" After 10 years, they are still money not enough!! "

As my rating stated for this movie, 4.5. I must said it was nice NOT because of the comedies acted by them but it was those touching moment in this movie. Surprisingly, i think this is the first movie that almost make me want to cry in the cinema.. lol.. but i won't spoilt out the storyboard here.. so, don't worry. kakaka

In this movie, they used a lot of CG (Computer Generated) video for some imposible scenes. lol.. as usual, the comedies.. but i think it was not as funny as the movie - Ah Long Pte Ltd. emm.. based on my experienced in this movie, i think the morale of the story is like telling us about "something". haha i bet you all will understand what i meant after you had watched it.. but i must said this movie was worth to watch !!
