Its a Long Weekend


Its a long weekend, thanks to Wesak Day falling on Friday, today to be exact. Paycheck is in, so everything is good. I was strolling along the Toys Dept at Wangsa Maju Carrefour, and guess what, I found this guy for RM 30 (around USD10) Its freaking awesome. I have to admit, I am not a bug fan of the Animated line, but Optimus Prime for RM30? Its a sin not to buy him. Few comments from me, the built and the mold is tough, and the colors are vibrant, but the plastic feels cheap. One huge plus, it transforms FINE. Oh ya, its a Voyager class. Fine by me.

So I rented The Army of Two 40th Day. Well, I was glad I rented it. Because it was HORRIBLE. The graphics are so shitty. Everybody looks so muddy. The atmosphere was dark, and in the darkness, PIXELLATED PARTAYY!The audio was very bad, there were times where I had choppers flying above my goddamned head, but I cant hear its rotors. Fuck. And lets not start about the story. Freaking ridiculous. It has no plot what so ever, and its extremely linear. The only moment I had fun in the game is in the 'bromance' minigames. The rock, paper, sicors, the 'manly hugs' between Rios and Salem. The morality judgement adds nothing to the story line, its either you risk you ass to get a rifle butt from some random Chinese, or, just pump the lead, full, terrorists and hostages alike. Hey, if I was Rios, in a city that is scheduled to go to Timbuktoo, I will be busy saving, MY OWN ASS. And whats up with Salem sounding like Chris Redfield? I chuckled.

Now me and the wife are busy with the Eyepet, a very good virtual pet simulator, and I love how Sony integrated PS Eye with this. Now I see the potential for Move and I cant wait for it to be released.
