I got my 250gb backward compatible PS3. Plus with 20 ps2 games to boot. Just finish setting it up yesterday at 1am. Was too tired to play. Now working for 2 days, so probably wont have time to play at all. Can't wait. Now I have to go hunting some games for my ps3 collection. What can I say the first time handling a ps3. That thing is freaking heavy. Like 5 kgs or something. Its heavier than my Xbox.
I want to go home and play...

Im sick
The whole family has been sick for two weeks. The cough spread from one person to another and what do you know. Im the last person that got it. I've been coughing for 4 days now. I don't mind the coughing. Its just really annoying when im sleeping. Hopefully can get better by this friday. In other news today and tomorow is my day off. So probably I hang back and just rest. Drink plenty of fluid. I've been at my mom house for 2 weeks already (quarrantine zone). I have tons backlogs of shows that I haven't start watching. Good thing a friend of mine is downloading it everyday. Ok then... Cough... Cough... Sigh...

R.I.P EGM
My 100 bucks for entertainment funds is usually spend on movies, buying blank DVD's and my monthly dose of Electronic Gaming Monthly (EGM). For those of who dont know what EGM is. Its a gaming magazine that dates back from the year 1989. Around 237 issues have been publish and 2 more months will be its 20th Anniversary.
But as they say, all good things must come to an end. Bevause of the current world ecnomy crisis right now the company that publish EGM (Ziff Davis) declared bankrupcy. As a result they sold their company to another company. And that company decided NOT to keep EGM. So next month will be my first month in 6 years without a gaming mag. Well At least I can save 20 bucks.

Movie Review : Australia
It's the beginning of the new year. this is my first movie of this new year. Before I start reviewing let me just say. If you have the money go for GSC Signature cinemas. It cost RM 18 and the seat a very comfortable. The screen is small so it looks like your very own private theater.
On to the review. This movie is a very long movie. 2 hours 45 mins long (3 if you count the trailers). Its actually part love story/part documentary about Australia and the aborigine people. Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman play the loving couple in this flick. It's kind of wired to see Wolverine in this environment (Im just waiting for him to pop a claw out). Let me give you a nutshell abou the story.
Girl comes to Australia guy helps him to herd cattle (that maybe the history of Australian beef; I dont know?). guy falls in love with girl. War, guy and girl seperated and eventually meet again. The end. In the middle of the story there is tale about this aborgine boy and his grandfather who has mistical powers.
Overall this is a good movie to past the time (if you have the time). As I say, get confortable seats. Its going to be a long ride.
I give this movie a 4/5 dingos

It that time again... Roundup..
Yee Haw... Let do a old skool roundup boys. This is not a weekly roundup as usual. This is more like a stuff-that-I-do-during-the-absence-of-this-blog-roundup.
Myself...
Things couldn't be better. Everything is just not that bad not that good. More like even. Enjoying life as it kick me in the arse. I got stuff to do but to lazy to do it. You know what, let future me deal with it. I finally ordered the JINX for the final time. I hate ordering online. The servers are stupid. Keeps on resetting and stuff. Good thing it all manage to go though finally
Games...
My Xbox is still in the gutter. So no Gears for 3 weeks. Im planning to sell that peice of crap (get fetch me at least 600) and upgrading a new one (probably the jasper set). Being downloading lots of 360 games. Prince of Persia, Tomb Raider Underworld. Mk vs Dc, but no box to play it. Actually I haven't being playing a lot of games lately. I notice my gaming habits are more like when Im in the mood. Coz currently right now Im so interested in my Creative Zen M. Old machine but still got a few kick in it.
Series...
Lots of things happening in Tv land. Prison break... OMG... The show just keeps getting better and better each season. People think that the show already Jumped the Shark (wiki that up if you dont know what it means), but I think the show will always be prison break since there are not free. Until they earn thier freedom this show will not stop yet. Heroes... Boring. Really I dont see the appeal of people having superpowers anymore, the shows has gone from brilliant to mediocre. To much plots, to many charaters we have to follow. This show doesnt give what prison break does.
Other than that, most of the shows will end in the US for a while because of the Xmas break. Meaning more time to clear my HDD space for future shows. 24 is coming soon. The best show ever. Some of the shows are coming to an end. Battlestar Galactica, Smallville, ER, and some got canceled (ie pushing daises)
Movies...
Since is the end of the year, most of the AAA titles are gone. I've just watched Wall-e. I like that movie. It shows that silient character can still make the movie enjoyable. I got The dark Knight on blu-ray. I want to see it tomorow but I think I can do that since I have other stuff to atend to. Hopefully I figure something out.
Im looking foward to seeing the day the earth stood still (TDTESS) . Remake of the 1950 original. The funny thing is the alien name is Klatuu... funny. One more to watch is the spirit. I dont think it will appeal to many people since who ever doesnt know about the comic will think is just another Batman movie. But more like sin city meats batman but with more girls.
Last but not least TRANSFORMERS: Revenge of the Fallen Trailer. This month. Can't Wait...
Ok that enough from me, adious (is that how to spell it) mucachos. Hmm... Im hungry for nachos all of the sudden

How Starbuck Save my Life - book review
Ok, this is something I haven't done in a while, read a book. Give a review. First of all the title is what as its state above. Let me give you the cliff note version of the book. Micheal Gill is a high executive in a big firm. One day, he got fired, got divorce, got cancer (or something like it) and has no money and savings. After that, he got interviewed at a local starbucks, got a job, love working there... The End. (there are someother stuff, but too long to write)
Let me tell you this book is like the how to in Starbucks. I think this is part of a marketing gimmick from Starbucks saving that is the best company in the world which offers great health and good oppurtunities. Maybe that is the Startbucks at the states. But not over here. You work in Starbucks you get around RM4.50 an hour (USD 1.24). Im not sure about the benefits. But really, if starbucks is the best place to work, why dont I see a lot a people working there. The book is ok.. nothing ho hum about it
Well I can tell you this, Mr Tom Hanks has picked up the movie rights of this book. So for those of you who doesn't want to read the book, can just wait for the movie
I give this book a 3/5 (Good coffee book... since you can drink coffee while reading it)
