No I didn't get a Wii - I lined up but sold out! (damnit)

No I didn't get a PS3 - I'm not entirely interested in having a CELL chip in my home anytime soon

No I didn't get a XBOX360 - I always think their games suck

 

Is my gaming life over? 

 

Anyway, some interesting blogs over the last few weeks covering the story:

blogged from http://www.forbes.com/2006/11/13/wii-review-ps3-tech-media-cx_de_1113wii.html?partner=rss

 

Last week, shortly after a Wii review unit arrived at Forbes.com's office, I set it up in a conference room to test it out. A colleague and I booted up Wii Sports, a collection of simple sports games that comes bundled with every console. It wasn't long before we were completely immersed in Wii Tennis. The simple mini-game replicates an actual tennis match as well as any I've ever seen: Since you're actually swinging the remote like you would a racket, you can hit with varying force or apply spin to the ball, depending on how you move your body.

Within minutes, we'd drawn a crowd, and only a short while after that, most of the editorial staff was packed into the conference room, laughing, enjoying the show and pushing for their turn at the remote. It was the first time since the original Nintendo Entertainment System came out in 1985 that videogaming felt like a party experience--not just because it was new, and worth gawking at, but because the experience is so much more physical, like Charades or Twister, and spectators can enjoy as much as the players.

After the hard-core gamers got their turns, less videogame-savvy editors took a shot, too. And it was here where the intuitive motion control system really proved its worth. There's no sequence of arcane button combinations required to throw a baseball: You just wind up and mime an actual throw. Suddenly, videogames are fun for everyone--old or young, male or female, regardless of prior gaming experience. I lost count of how many times I heard non-gamers say, "Wow, I want to get this."

 

My view:

Wii is indeed revolution!  What makes a console fun is not about how advanced it is, but it's how fun the games are.  Stop babbling about how good your hardware is cause no one will care!  Who cares about what a CELL chip is and who cares about how many SPUs/PPUs. sitting in your $600 box if the game suck!  Technology nevers interests people, it's the possibilities that technology opens up that drive us to explore and to develop!

This is my latest work!!! (well a major part is done by my sis:) ) Please take a look!!

Call out to all Canadians!!! (I don't care about non-canadians :P)

緣這個東西,是最不可思議的.

電影"不見不散"的主題歌這樣唱道"這世界說大就大,
說小就小.就算是我們今生的約定,也要用一生去尋找...."
我們都在參加一場宏大的化裝舞會,
熙熙攘攘的人群裡,我們尋覓著,
渴望著....那指間,相觸時被電擊的感覺.
那一刻,面具摘下了,顯現出真實的面目.

這之前,我們都惶惑著,
惶惑的甚至不知道自己需要的究竟是什麼.
直到你遇到一個人,

才恍然間了解了自己真正想要的,並非當初以為的.
你驚訝于自己在對方面前表現出來的,
竟然是和過去截然不同的你!
皆因你過去戴著面具.

緣分這東西不可強求.
該你的,早晚是你的:
不該你的,怎麼努力也得不到.
但無論任何時候,我們都不要絕望.
不要放棄自己對真,善,美的愛情追求.

人生的價值,在某種意義上講,就是愛和被愛的成熟.
當真愛來臨,果實也就成熟了

隨緣............隨意..............
                 隨遇.........隨喜.......... 
  

相處時需要包容.相戀時需要真心.爭吵時需要溝通
孤獨時需要人陪.難過時需要安慰.生氣時需要冷靜
快樂時需要分享.



平淡的幸福被一般人視為雞肋，食之無味．．．棄之可惜．．．．．

其實，真正的幸福只有用心去品味的人才知道．．．．．．．

幸福，因為平淡所以持久．．．．．．

與其追求未知的新鮮快感．．．．不如珍惜眼前的平淡．．．．．．．

時間久了自然明白，最平淡的原來就是最精彩的

 

Thanks for all those who chipped in!!! 

 

let's kick some a$$ tomorrow.

4、 自信——《灌籃高手》

與《聖斗士》和《七龍珠》不同，對這兩部書喜歡的和厭惡的立場都非常鮮明，都能舉出一大堆的例子來證明自己的正確。基本上在我所接触的漫友中，沒有人對《灌籃高手》有任何的疑義。
這是一部非常神奇的漫畫。想想看，湘北的熱血少年們總共只打了幾場比賽，大家都能對他們的勝負比分台詞倒背如留，卻仍是深深抓住了所有人的心。大家會為了湘北的勝利而歡呼，會為少年的憂傷而落淚，每天放學時不是飛奔回家去看那十幾集都打不完一場的比賽上課都看著漫畫暗自興奮就是模仿閑來偶像們在籃球場上奮勇拼搏。

櫻木作為故事的主角，更是一個不可思議的人物。從一開始的門外漢，到在賽場上搗亂的籃板王，再到與山王決戰時的中堅力量，他的成長另人刮目相看。雖然這只是虛構，只是漫畫，但櫻木的力量會讓人感到戰栗。
我是天才。
這句話聽多了固然耳朵會起老繭，會感覺是自我膨脹，是目空一切。但也正是因著這份自信，櫻木才敢站在籃球場上和猩猩隊長一決勝負，才會走進湘北的休息室摸起從未學習的籃球，才會在球場上以流川為超越的目標，才會有精神動力去練習兩萬的投球，才會成為山王不敗神話的終結者。
他相信自己的潛力，自己能做到這些，能夠成為未來的no.1。
所以，他成功了。

尋晚既心情: 腹背受敵。

今日既情況: 十面埋伏。

聽日既展望: 聽日先知。

 

衰野都係唔多講﹐總之都係一句﹐膚淺的人很膚淺。稔歪左既人﹐你係幫唔到佢架啦。 與其好心做壞事﹐倒不如任其天生天養可能重會撥亂反正呢。

 

祝你好運啦。

 

 

Why is the work still stacked up?

 

Propsect on tomorrow is not looking good either.

 

"I can only please one person a day, TODAY IS NOT YOUR FUCKING DAY.  tomorrow is not looking good either...."
