Sitting in my messy room

I know. I know. I know... I haven't been blogging in a very long time now...
I was just being too lazy to actually bring up much of an update of what's really going on in my life...
But then again, the thing is that I am busy-ing with my studies as well...
just an awesome night, spent sitting in this messy room...:P(My gf's been bugging me to clean it of course)
Anyway, well, let's see... pile of clothes... a bottle of Vodka, two glasses, some old pizza boxes, my gf's teddy bear... and technically the rest are just trash... well, the usual you get from a room that has not been cleaned in months...
I would actually take a photo of my room but I wouldn't do it because it would just be embarrassing myself right?
But anyway, I really need to get some time to clean up my room... LOL

MIA for a few monhs from blogging...

In case you've been wondering where have I been for the past few months...
Well, easier said... I've been MIA from blogging... As you can see... I've spent 3 months working... as a Customer Support Executive... Damn a really annoying job...
I've spent 1 month in training and 2 months in active service in Astro's Call Centre... That's right... It is an annoying one... An average of 60-70 calls per day and expect at least 80% of them are reconnections... this is by far the most annoying job you can ever get... Though a little fun when you were scolding all kinds of nonsense once you put them on mute... That's the fun part... Located at an isolated place called CapSquare on the edge of Kuala Lumpur, I doubt anyone ever heard of it anyway... at least none of my friends do... It is so isolated that no one even bothered going there... anyway, As I was saying, located in an isolated place, I've spent 2 months in this building... of 2 floors... though I've met plenty of nice people around and plenty of unpleasant ones... I've finally realized that this is how tough the working life is... though a short time period... I've learned plenty... And in case anyone's asking me for photos of the area... sorry guys, no photos in this call centre...

Medal of Honor (2010) review









Cover featuring everyone's favourite Dusty

Driving out at night deep into the Taliban controlled areas of Afghanistan was never a good idea. As seen in the trailer, cars go boom, bullets flying everywhere, and yes, the awesome action begins. This is Medal of Honor. For most of you fans of the original Medal of Honor series, this is by far the best installment since Medal of Honor Allied Assault. For most Call of Duty fans, you might think that this whole new Medal of Honor is a complete rip-off from Modern Warfare 2. Well, guess what? It isn't. Medal of Honor puts you into the boots of 3 different characters, namely Rabbit, Deuce and Spc. Adams. You are tasked into well, eliminating the Taliban of course. Go deep into enemy controlled areas, with the help of local rebels, or team mates. Of course, we can never forget the bearded guy on the cover whose name is Dusty. The action for the game itself was a totally new experience from what you get when you play Call of Duty. Explosions aren't as big as they should be. Grenades don't go with a big boom but instead, it goes with a rather smaller explosion.

The scenery of the Afghan mountains were breathtaking. It actually make you feel like you are inside the game itself. Though storyline was awesome as it is. The action lacked the insane swarm of enemies from what you get in Modern Warfare 2 which makes this more realistic for a shooter. Overall, I have gotten to love those sliding moves where you can't really do in most shooters with just as simple as sprint and crouch. Oh yeah, sliding down for cover behind rocks after sprinting is in. Beat that, Modern Warfare 2. The AI for the opposition were quite good. As most of the AI will tend to seek proper cover and fire at you. Though the limitation of the weapons was a little of a downfall and the terrain makes it hard for you to spot where they are.
Fantastic scenery. Is Osama there?
Hey, that's my house you're breaking into...

Maybe we should go hiking someday...


Realistic firefights proved that this game is not to be underestimated by most Call of Duty die hard fans. Overall, the realism has made this game to a really high score. IEDs, sniping and the wind speed and direction affecting it, this has got to be the most close to life shooter ever made so far. The down part for the game is its short storyline and the little variety of weapons. Graphics for the game has brought this game up, though the graphics demand wasn't high. As my 9600 GT can run it at medium without any lags. AI was intelligent enough. Sound quality was superb. Overall, rating. Graphics 9/10. AI 8.5/10. Storyline 9.5/10. Verdict:9/10

Civilization V





Well, been waiting for ages for this to come up... And finally, it's here... Civilization V... the latest installment to Firaxis' Sid Meier's Civilization series... first, I've expect the controls to be more complex with new things coming up... However, it wasn't as complex as I thought, though I barely have enough time to try out the game recently... But as far for I can say, the User Interface or UI is simple... very few options compared to what was seen in the previous installment... Civilizations from lesser known ares such as Siam and the Songhai were featured in this installment... However nice it looks, the army doesn't look like 3 gigantic soldiers walking around the map... but instead an entire regiment of soldiers... compared to Civilization IV... one more thing to add is that we can all kiss the squares goodbye and welcome back to the Hexagons... in Civilization V, we will not be using the squares like we did in Civilization IV...Hexagons have returned to replace the tiles in Civilization V... Graphics was spectacular as the lighting has changed a lot from Civilization IV... what can you say? 5 years in the development... It has to be awesome... Though I would say that there will no longer villages to explore that gives you bonuses but ruins which gives you gold or manpower... overall, since I don't get to play much bout the game... I leave it for another time before I'll be rating this game...

My first street fighter experience since the NES era...

Amazingly, I have not played Street Fighter for a long time... And recently, I've managed to get my hands on Street Fighter 4... of course, my girlfriend had never touched it... until recently... So, while she was giving a shot at Street Fighter 4... she had managed to get a hang of almost all the characters except Bison... Me, on the other hand, sucked at all the characters except Sagat... the Muay Thai fighter from the first Street Fighter... and amazingly, though I always do suck at fighting games, Sagat was the only character that I've managed to master well enough to try to fight Seth... pathetic eh? of course... i got pwned badly while fighting Seth... amazingly, my girlfriend managed to use the other fighters way better than i do... though i usually don't last the first round... except for Sagat... pathetic but true...

Sagat pwning little Ryu as usual...
the big bad boss of Street Fighter in the previous series... only to be replaced by the awesomeness of Seth

staring out into the night

staring out into the night
the lonely darkness
i chose my plight
to escape this darkness
there you were standing with the light
i reached towards you to see who you might
almost reaching it seems so bright
i fall in love with you for you were right
i made my choice i see this through
i find myself that you were true
