Dead Space

The latest game I played.
I've been thinking of buying this game for my PS3. To decide whether the game is worth the money, I played the PC version of the game.

This game is a horror adventure type of game in a sci-fi environment. As the name suggests, the setting is in space.
The gameplay is similar to Resident Evil 4 which is why I LIKE... ^^
The over-shoulder view very much like Resident Evil 4

In this game the instead of having the 'traditional' head-up display to display information, all info are displayed using a holographic projections, usually appear near the character's armor & weapons. This being said, everything you do will be in real-time, which means, you can still move around, being attacked, fighting monsters while your are accessing your info such as receiving messages, your inventory, maps & so on. Thus, it maximizes your in-game experience throughout the game.

Of course my laptop is incapable of producing the graphics of the game to its full potential, but from what I see from the video reviews and such, the graphics are beautifully done. Which is why I'm considering of buying this game for PS3. Everything looks very much alive. Monsters' dead bodies stay where they are where you killed them unless u leave the place long enough. The physics in the game looks pretty much well done. The way things move in the game looks real.
The sound is definitely amazing. Although I played the game only using my laptop speakers (haven't got the chance to connect my laptop with my speakers yet), I can hear the quality of the sound. As usual, music enhances the fright-factor of the game.

In this game, instead of the usual 'shoot the head' type of game, you will have to cut the limbs of the monsters to kill them and the monsters move really fast.
All the screenshots are from GameSpot

You can buy weapons, upgrade them, upgrade your armor & such. So far, I've only completed chapter 2. About replay value of the game? I'm not sure yet. I sure hope you get to keep all the stuff & upgrades you've gain once you finish the game for the subsequent play through. I'll find out about it soon enough.

The storyline, I'm not sure. Haven't finish the game yet. I think its OK so far.

There is actually an animated movie called Dead Space: Downfall. The movie is kind of the prequel to the game. If you're into storyline of the game, you definitely must watch the movie first before you play the game.

Brief introduction to the story:

Set in the 26th century, Dead Space revolves around Isaac Clarke, a space engineer who works for the Concordance Extraction Corporation (C.E.C.), a company that operates giant mining ships throughout the galaxy. When the C.E.C. receives a distress call from the USG Ishimura (a “Planet Cracker”-class ship that destroys planets in order to extract valuable ore), Isaac and four other C.E.C. employees set out on the USG Kellion to rendezvous with the Ishimura in orbit above Aegis 7. Their assumption is that a mechanical failure is the only problem. At the beginning of the game, Isaac is seen watching a video sent to him by his ex-girlfriend, Nicole Brennan, who is currently on board the Ishimura.

Shortly after crash landing on the Ishimura's flight deck, the crew of USG Kellion is attacked by hostile creatures called Necromorphs. These creatures reproduce by reanimating deceased human bodies, violently mutating and assimilating them to become one of their own (A process referred to by a scientific backstory log as "Recombination"). Isaac escapes down an elevator, and is separated from the rest of the team. At this point, Isaac, Kendra Daniels, and Zach Hammond are the only surviving members of the USG Kellion.

So far I'm satisfied with the game. A must have if you're a fan of Resident Evil 4 type of game.

Will I buy the game for PS3? Most likely... =P

Kamikustik

Last night me & zahier performed acoustic for an event called Kamikustik organized by some group of Indonesian students from MMU....

We were the 5th band out of 10..
All the performances seemed OK to me..

Zahier played acoustic guitar.
I do the vocals, electric guitar & tambourine on my right foot...
hahaha.. I always do want to try anything challenging for performances like this...

My performance was a disaster!!!
1st,... My tuning was off right from the start...
I had to stop zahier in the middle of his playing just to tune my guitar...
Then,.... I forgot my lyrics!! -_-
There was a couple of empty lines within the songs that we played....& some jumbled up lines in the last chorus of the 2nd song...

Talk about the consequences of not enough practice.. ^^

Anyway... We got good comments on our performance despite all the mistakes I've made...

I only have 2 pics(of us)...will ask more from the committee later..



The songs that we played last night was:
1. Hitamku by Andra & the Backbone
2. I'll Be by Edwin McCain

During the audition, we played Broken Wings by Alter Bridge....
We should have just played Broken Wings insteaof Hitamku...
As long as it was enjoyable, that's all that matters anyway.. ^^

Naruto

This is from Kak Milah's blog

Sarawakian songs for kiddies...^^

cong kerepang belangak sombeng,
pecah geliga ketawak teng teng
tangan nek esot tergoleng goleng
tergoleng goleng

cong kemembek
kemembek sama gendang
anak orang dalam bondong
sintak sintuk
engkang enkong
taik katak taik burong!

Bila dilagu sik juak jenaka gilak...
Bila dah ditaip..dibaca balit baruk perasan..hahahaha..

Finally I'm on my first night in hostel.

My room is on the fifth floor... O_O.. & there's no lift...
Anyway, I'll just look at the bright side of it...
I get to exercise climbing stairs to fifth floor everyday... so, its an exercise I could not skip...
Hopefully I'll become healthier.. XD...

All the big stuff is still in the house in cyber. Haven't got the chance to get a transport to move them to my sis's apartment yet...hopefully it can be done this weekend...

Dying House

Holiday's over.

I still haven't got any card reader...so..i can't put any pics from my camera in my blog...

Now currently I'm staying in this 'dying house'. Since everyone starts moving out... There's no water... The water from the tank is slowly sinking every morning shower...So the term 'dying' seems appropriate somehow. ^^

Okay.. this is outside topic..

One of my friend, i know from when I'm in MMU Melaka has started a new business...a clothing line..A new one i might say, i don't have much info on it myself...

So, do check out Closet 3110 and see what they have to offer..

Apa laa naseeeeeb~

My results out! I passed all my subjects..Glad I'm doing OK... Not great but OK....

That's not the issue though....

Just found out that the 'F*#%ing Stupid Moronic Idiot' landlord of my house in Cyberjaya owes the Cyberia management RM20K!!!!

I repeat 20K!!!! TWENTY THOUSAND!!! DUA PULUH RIBU RINGGIT!!!!

....and the management cut off our water supply until the FSMI landlord pays full amount....PLUS, the FSMI landlord is currently not in Malaysia...until about 2 weeks....

so, guess what?? We'll have to survive without water in our house for 2 weeks plus???

I think i'd have to move out from the house...apply for hostel... That's a LOT of stuff to pack.. T_T

The first thing that i have to do when i get back to KL is to start packing my stuff... T_T
I NEED HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

Apa laa naseeeeeb~T_T
