Recently, I’ve just got myself a copy of Halo 2 for Windows Vista and BioShock, and I’m kind of busy playing Halo 2 on LIVE, an online multiplayer service offered by Microsoft. You can for yourself see a screenshot of a Halo 2 multiplayer game running on LIVE above (click to enlarge).

Actually, it’s already been a while since I’ve got Halo 2 for Windows Vista, but I’ve just been busy these few days playing BioShock and Halo 2 on LIVE, as I have said above, so I didn’t have time to make a post on this. Anyway, I think that Halo 2’s storyline and cinematic effects are impressive, but as you know it, the graphics are pretty outdated considering it is a PC port of an Xbox game.

Halo 3 has just been released for the Xbox 360, further hampering the sales of Halo 2 for Windows Vista. I have yet to finish the Halo 2 campaign, so it will be a while before I will decide to get my hands on a copy of Halo 3, which looks rather impressive.

Personally, i think Halo 2 for Windows Vista feels more like an Xbox 360 title, than a PC port of an Xbox game. It features 3 exclusive maps for Windows Vista, and upgraded grpahics and textures. Although it’s not much considering it’s a PC release, think about how Halo 3 will impress us when it comes out for Windows Vista.

Besides Halo 2, I’ve also got BioShock, which makes Halo 2 for Windows Vista look like a Nintendo Wii title, considering how impressive it’s graphics are. It uses DirectX 10 textures too! Plus, the game’s wonderful storyline just draws you into the whole action. BioShock also gives the player freedom to explore the world of Rapture.

What’s bad about BioShock is that it hasn’t got multiplayer - rather pitiful considering it’s an AAA first person shooter. Other than that, BioShock is impressive in almost evey area of the game; storyline, music, etc. Nothing else makes it worse than Halo 3, in my opinion.

Well, guys, enjoy yourself this coming October! There will be lots of electronic games coming our way, at full speed! Crysis, Gears of War for Windows, Need for Speed ProStreet - you can list them all! By the way, if you haven’t got yourself a copy of BioShock, you really should!

Now… here’s one for you - it’s a very funny mistake a magazine editor made. This magazine was supposed to be called “Parents”, but the cover image blocked the letters “a” and “r” from the “magazine title, and the top of the lettter “t” is blocked by some words, which makes it read as “Penis”.

Now, if you don’t know what a penis is, this is what it means: The penis (plural penises, penes) is an external sexual organ of certain biologically male organisms. The penis is a reproductive organ and, for mammals, additionally serves as the external organ of urination.

This post is pun intended, so don’t feel insulted or offended in anyway. Otherwise, I’ll have to delete this post, which will be a huge loss to this blog. I don’t know about you, but this is the funniest blunder I’ve ever came across on the Internet.

I don’t know if you actually liked, or disliked this extremely retarded mistake somebody made. Anyway, it’s a good find. It’s explicity can be debated, however, but I feel this is nothing explicit or sexual but only a stupid mistake a retarded editor made. Anyway, just leave a comment if you think this is a good find.

Halo 3, the game that was talked about, discussed and debated over many times before it’s release, has finally been released for the Xbox 360. In Singapore, huge crowds of people queued up outsde Suntec City Mall to get their hands on Halo 3 during noon.

So, is this game really that great? We do not really know, but many online and magazine reviewers has given it a score of 8 and above. That can be an interesting feat, but Grand Theft Auto San Andreas had achieved higher review scores back in 2005 when it came out.

Halo 3, being the final game in the series, will tie up loose ends in the storyline of the Halo series. The story arc started in Halo: Combat Evolved, however, is not complete. The events that happens between Halo 2 and Halo 3 will only be addressed in Halo Uprising, a Halo graphic novel, and so far only one has been released. Also, Halo wars, the prequel to Halo: Combat Evolved, has not been released yet, leaving some Halo fans puzzled about the storyline.

Many Halo fan fictions have been written, read and forgotten, but the Halo storyline has yet to be completed. Microsoft should understand that most people that play Halo are gamers, not comic book fans, movie-goers or bookworms. Certain storyline elements are only found in the Halo films, graphic novels and novels, which makes in impossible to understand the series’ storyline by just playing the games.

Besides, the single-player campaign mode in Halo 3 isn’t at all impressive. Without the multiplayer mode, Forge map editor, new “support weapons” and Theather mode, Halo 3 is just all plain bread with the usual arena-style FPS elements that just fails to impress the seasoned gamer.

Perhaps, Halo 3 would appeal more to the casual gamer. Seasoned gamers might welcome Forge, the new weapons and vehicles, improved graphics and Theather mode, but it’ll get all boring once you’ve played through it and got the hang of it. Multiplayer is the only one impressive point of Halo 3, besides Forge.

In a nutshell, Halo 3 had given more than we had expected, but it just fails to impress the seasoned gamer. Halo 3 introduces many new weapons, vehicles and modes, but it didn’t mange to fill up the storyline gaps yet, which is a pity since it will be the last game in the Halo series. The Multiplayer mode of Halo 3, however, didn’t fail to impress the gaming community, as always. Good job with the multiplayer, Bungie, but it didn’t impress me enough for me to grab a copy myself on the launch date itself.

It’s September 24th today. Halo 3 will be released on 25th September, just merely one day from today. It’s the game everybody is anticipating ever since the release of Grand Theft Auto IV was delayed till next year. It is expected that there will be long queues everywhere on the release date.

Now, just what is this game that got everybody excited about? If you’re still wondering, wandering about and asking, Halo 3 is a first-person shooter that follows the character Master Chief and his struggle against the Covenant and the Flood. The game’s campaign missions takes place mostly on foot, but there are vehicles you can comandeer at some parts in the game.

In Halo 3, the balance of weapons and objects in the game has been adjusted to better adhere to the “Golden Triangle of Halo”. These are “weapons, grenades, and melee”; all three of which are simultaneously available to the player at all times while on foot if they are not dual wielding or not using one of the new class of support weapons.

Halo 3 also introduces many new weapons. The weapons from Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2, such as the Battle Rifle, Sniper Rifle, Covenant Plasma Rifle, Brute Shot and the Covenant Needler are back. The Assault Rifle which appeared in Halo is also returning for Halo 3.

Halo 3 introduces a new class of weapons called “support weapons”. These are a group of extremely large, powerful and cumbersome two-handed weapons that changes the camera angle to a third-person perspective when it is being used.

The two support weapons that was available in the Halo 3 Public Online Multiplayer Beta were the Machine Gun Turret and Missile Pod, although a Flamethrower also features in this class as well as a new Covenant plasma turret.

Also, this time round, when a player is carrying a second weapon in Halo 3, the secondary weapon will be stored on the character’s back (for larger, two-handed weapons) or on a leg holster (for smaller, one-handed weapons). This makes it impossible to “hide” a powerful secondary weapon and surprise unsuspecting foes.

Besides weapons, Halo 3 also introduces many new vehicles to the series. Many of the series’ vehicles such as the Banshee, Warthog and Scorpion are returning. There will be different types of vehicles, including light reconnaissance vehicles, large, heavily armored tanks, troop and vehicle transport craft, plus various atmospheric and spacecraft, although not all will be usable by the player.

There will be many gamers rushing to get their copy of Halo 3 tomorrow, on September 25. However, I think this is a little bit too hyped up. GameSpot even has a Halo 3 Launch Center. What do you think of the Halo 3 hype? Kindly give your comments on this.

In France, there’s a rule when you’re on the road - never to follow behind a bus. Not following this rule might result in undesirable consequences, usually being having a wrecked vehicle or an immobilized auto.

Now, I’m just kidding about it being a rule, but just take a look at the video above. It shows, amusingly, how some motorists can mange to wreck their precious cars or immobilize their precious autos when they don’t follow traffic rules or read traffic signs carefully.

Just make sure you don’t encounter such an embarrassment when you go to France. Remember this - Do Not Follow Behind The F**king Bus When Driving In France Or You Risk Having Your Vehicle Wrecked.

Laugh, laugh out loud! Haha. Funny one there, this video just fails not to amuse me everytime I watch it. I just won’t stop laughing everytime I see a vehicle colliding into the road barrier. Actually, I think it’s the drivers’ faults. Couldn’t they just drive on the main roads or something? Pure Retards.

Well, here you go - another joke. I find it funny, what about you? Was it funny? If you like it, kindly leave your comment at the bottom.

In Queenstown, New Zealand, a burglar returned to the scene of his crime on the same day and took back the goods he have stolen earlier along with a heartfelt apology note.

Along with those goods, he had bought with a credit card he had taken from the home of Graeme Glass who was at work in the southern resort of Queenstown, New Zealand, at the time.

Apparently, the burglar had smashed a window to gain entry and made off with a notebook computer, a camera, and Glass’s wallet including the American Express credit card.

However, the thief returned the goods later in the day, along with a new basketball and two pairs of gloves bought on the stolen credit card.

The family later discovered the loot piled on their kitchen table with a neat, handwritten full-page note from the burglar saying he was sorry for “violating the safety and security of your home”.

The robber also promised to leave cash in Glass’ mailbox to pay for the smashed window when he had enough money.

The note said: “I have never written truer words when I say that I wish that I had never done this to you and your family.

“From the bottom of my heart I am sorry.”

Queenstown police said they have a description of the thief from staff in the stores where the credit card was used.

What a wierd robber indeed. What could have caused him to take the goods, credit card and things bought with it back to the scene of crime? Guilty Conscience, perhaps. Haha.

Recently, it was known that Scientists in Italy have managed to develop a formula that could be used to manufacture a suit that gives the wearer some of the abilities portrayed by a favourite comic book, Spider-Man.

The ‘Spider-Man’ suit would then be able to work by having the gloves and boots coated by carbon nanotubes, which would allow the wearer to cling to concrete, metal and glass. The nanotubes will be shaped like hooks and loops and imitate the hairs on the feet of a gecko.

In other words, it means that the wearer would be able to shoot out spider web material, cling on it and swing around with it, just like how Spider-Man would be able to. Well, it is cool, isn’t it?

According to the scientists, the suit is still in its initial stages of development, but it could be used in everything, from the mundane — such as window cleaning — to the exciting, such as space exploration. This is jsut another wonderful thing worth blogging, no?

The blog has just gone offline again…. I hate to say it, but no, it’s not server problems again. This time, we’re down because we exceeded our hard disk space space limit. Therefore, we promise you guys we’ll look for a new webhost to run this weblog.

Just know that we’ll be back soon, with increased webspace, speed and bandwidth! I know that this has been the shortest post since two months, but there’s really nothing else to say. Just know that we’re currently switching webshosts to provide you readers with a more pleasant experience.
