Legacy

not Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes. One copies his dad and the other is "always smoking mirrors".

BASKETBALL


What do you think? Pretty unbalanced eh? 3 US team players, all young, in one NBA team.

Though, this might have just ruined their legacies. Too many superstars in one team. If they win, what happens? The TEAM is remembered. Individually on the other hand... it could be a whole different story. If they win, nobody will be saying "LeBron won" or "Wade won" or "Bosh won" because it's true. They did it with a pretty star studded team. It's sad too, because previously all three of these guys pretty much defined their teams. You know, those players who, when you mention the name of the team, you instantly think of that one superstar. Take for instance, this guy


Michael Jordan IS the reason the Bulls have 6 trophies sitting in Chicago right now. It was simple. With Jordan, championship. Without Jordan, no championship. Once Jordan got it right the first time in 1991, he never got it wrong. 2 more championships followed. Then he left for one year. What happened? No championship. Then he came back and won 3 more consecutive trophies.

I don't think this can happen to the "3 Kings" at the Heat. IF they do win 3 consecutive championships, the Heat will become legendary, but, espescially for LeBron, they can't achieve that Michael Jordan status, if anyone does for that matter. Think about it, even Kobe finds it hard to win championships without a decent big man to back him up (Pau, Shaq).

I'm looking forward to seeing how these egos clash

It is unbalanced so why is short form imba instead of unba? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Long Time No Post

So just post.

WRESTLING
Undertaker storyline ridiculous now. The story goes, before Fatal 4 Way, Taker qualifies for title match by defeating Rey Mysterio. The next week he is found in "a vegetative state". So Kane goes all pissnuts and hunts down the attacker. After about 2 months of speculation, Kane reveals that Taker says that Rey did it! It's okay. The only problem is... it's true. Undertaker was sidelined due to a broken orbital bone and nose along with a nasty concussion... which he sustained during the match with Mysterio. Hmmm... Kane even states that it makes sense because Rey wanted to take his place. What if the attack wasn't kayfabe? oooo

Big Show is having fun torturing SES. I'm having fun watching it. Team Nexus vs Team Cena... pretty cool if it wasn't for Bret Hart and Khali. Khali should stick to his joke segments while Bret Hart really should just hang up the boots.

SOCCER
Spain wins! yayyyyyy!

Liverpool acquire Milan Jovanovic aka guywhobeatgermany, Joe Cole aka guywhobeatmanu and Danny Wilson aka guywhobeatceltic for a grand sum of 2.5M pounds. wth?

Anyways great start for new manager Roy Hodgson as a "weaker" squad of players see FK Rabotnicki of with Ngog scoring a brace. Keep up the good work YNWA

Kiwis rule

18-0

So long never update, I'm ashamed.

NEWS
Results came out, don't wanna talk about it.

I've just finished my 3 week adventure around Asia. How do I feel? Hmm... not bad, I really miss Taiwan coldass weather. Indonesia was cool too. Except for when some certain 2 idiots got drunk. They claim not to, but think about it, when was the last time someone told you "I think I'm drunk", let alone "I'm drunk"? Whatever, glad to be back in the most developed country in South East Asia.

WRESTLING
You may be wondering what the 18-0 in the title stands for. But chances are if you're reading this section you already know it. Wrestlemania XXVI has come and gone and the Undertaker's streak has yet to be broken. So one legend continues to grow, but sadly another has to die. As part of the storyline and as a result of his loss to the Phenom, Shawn Michaels has been made to retire. This signals the end of a storied 26-year career where the Heart Break Kid battled his way through to the top the ranks in the WWE. Throughout his 22-year stint with WWE, Michaels won back-to-back royal rumbles, created DX, won a plethora of championships, retired, unretired, won a few more championships and so on and so forth. It is only fitting that "Mr. Wrestlemania" ends his career at the grandest stage of them all. Thank you, Shawn Michaels.

While we are on the topic of streaks let's talk about other Wrestlemania streaks. Two other streaks have recently finished. Edge lost to the Undertaker 2 years ago and John Cena was pinned last year, ending their respective WM undefeated streaks. But one other streak continues to live on. Vincent Kennedy McMahon's legendary 0-4 winless streak at Wrestlemania. This is without the managerial matches. With them his record is even more magnificent at 0-6. It's just sad. See for yourself
WM 2000: Managed The Rock. Loss
WM X-Seven: loss vs Shane McMahon via pinfall
WM XIX: loss vs Hulk Hogan via pinfall
WM 22: loss vs Shawn Michaels via pinfall
WM 23: Managed Umaga. Loss vs Bobby Lashley via pinfall
WM XXVI: loss vs Bret Hart via submission (sharpshooter)
Will he ever get a win? maybe. All four of those matches have something in common. They're all No Holds Barred matches. Maybe, just maybe if he decides to wrestle in a traditional match, who knows, he might just get that first win :)

John Cena won. Was there any doubt?

actually I bought 4 games since last post. Some relatively new ones, Red Alert 2 and L4D2(2ndhand too, wtf?) and some serious oldies, Wrestle Kingdom and Def Jam: Icon. But... since I've been doing waaaay too many game reviews I'll talk much about to them. Suffice to say that I've enjoyed playing all 4 of these games.

ppl acting "cock-y" at school. For those at CPT, you know what I mean. Now that DL list starting to form, everyone muz chiong liao. Deny the "Cock-yness" its continuation. Force it to cease. I'm rallying the troops. C'mon CW, Mr. Chia, Pann, Enoch, Gary, Pei Yee, Clara, Xiu Xian, Kah Hui, Yeow Boon and all the other potential zai peoples, we can do iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!!!!!!!!!

A Very Merry Christmas To Everyone!

cuz mine was spoilt by some crazy Indian dude. He started jumping over gates and into houses around the Begonia/Saraca area like he owned the place, didn't even care that someone was calling the cops on him. The crazy bugger even went to my place. Dad chased him away with his trusty katana. Police arrived shortly after and are on the lookout. Beware, people of Begonia/Saraca (I'm looking at YOU Hung Khiang... seriously, look out). Oh and just because I know Jeff and Pann are dieing to know, YES Caline knows about this. Did she get "touched" hmm... you can go ask her if you want. :)

MUSIC

This song sounds deeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad. Pretty cool rap though. Still, it WILL rot your mind after a while. Stick with "Rise". That one's got a whole lot more energy.

Title: Handlebars
Artist: Flobots



Urrgh, my songs are just getting less and less annoying. damn it.
nevermind, back to basics.



Final Comment
Lock your door Hung Khiang, the Indian guy's comin to GET YA!

Exams Over!

and they suck. don't wanna talk about it.

GAMES

Went overkill... cuz it's the hols



Dynasty Warriors game at $50, I couldn't resist. It's pretty much the same as DW 6 but with musou moves replaced with awakened modes where the player will go into and ulti mode and start killing people. Pretty cool but I'm gonna leave it aside until my Japanese gets better. Maybe I'll understand the game a bit better then.



Got this because of 2 reasons. 1) it was secondhand. 2) The first Top Spin on Xbox was THE tennis game. I was kinda disappointed with Top Spin 3. Yes the game is fun after learning all the weird moves. But that was the problem. You could only have fun after learning the all weird moves. The learning curve is ridiculously steep. The pick up and play factor of Top Spin 1 is long gone here. Still... kicking ass with Roddick's crazy right arm is cool



This was a surprise. I thought I fell for the $18 price tag and bought a worthless game. My first impressions were NOT good. When I played the demo I just felt like the AI was cheating all the time. Then I started to explore the system a little more. It was pretty fun. I got addicted soon after. The strangest part is the game is pretty realistic for a street game. Wall runs aside, the game plays like real life street football. The downside of this game is the lack of depth. Very few modes. Also, this game is in DESPERATE need of a create a player system. Overall this was probably my greatest buy out of this bunch.

Hmm... what should I get next, C&C RA3? Samurai Shodown? Winning Eleven? DJ Hero? So many choices...

MUSIC

So how was polysics? Haven't heard? check older posts. MUST Listen.

Another annoying song this time. I'm probably gonna get a few haters for this but what the heck. Heroes of our Time by Dragonforce. It's pretty cool at the chorus and you'll appreciate the difficulty level of this song (seriously, the drums and guitar are just freakin impossible). But still, it's annoying because... well, half the time... no about 2 thirds of the time it's just noise. So without further adieu

Title: Heroes of our Time
Artist: Dragonforce



7 minutes long. Who can last?

Ee Pheng is a nice girl. I write this because she asked me to.

MUSIC
I was playing around with shuffle on my iPod and I came across this song that I hadn't listened to in a long time. So I gave it a listen and then I realised... "Damn! This song is annoying!" Don't believe me? Listen for yourself

Title: Tei! Tei! Tei!
Artist: Polysics
Album: Now! Is the Time!



I wonder who can listen through to the end?

Rest In Peace Guys

Robert Enke (24 August 1977 — 10 November 2009)

Eddie "Umaga" Fatu (March 28, 1973 – December 4, 2009)

Yeah I know I'm a bit late to post for Umaga's passing and TREMENDOUSLY late to post for Robert Enke's passing. It's sad that they had to be taken away from us this early but at least they had good runs in their respective careers before they passed away. God bless the 2 of you, you'll be missed.

GAMES
This sucks. Now I feel terrible every time i play against Germany in FIFA 10 or against Umaga in SVR2010.

Played L4d2 last Friday. Probably gonna get it for X360. Not sure. But I do know that the improvements are plenty. New features such as the melee weapons and better ending scenes are there to name a few. I'll talk about it more if I play it again or if I buy it.

Final Comment
The worst deprovement of L4D2? Lack of Zoey... duh...

A New Beginning?

Had a life changing experience today.

All my life I've tried my best to be as good as a nice Christian boy should be. But up until now I've never really accepted Christ into my life. With the help of Ethan Leo and friends at the Hope Church, I have finally accepted The Lord into my life. To feel the holy spirit... it's a great feeling. A new beginning? Definitely. Thanks to all the guys at the Hope Church and God.

Noooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!

Drowning My Depression In The Drug Known As...

VIDEO GAMES



awright! this game rox. Graphics are just too cool for words. The soundtrack is great as always. The fighting engine retains pretty much everything from previous installments. They have a new "rage" system, where the guy goes into rage mode when he has 5% health left. Collisions with the environment have been improved slightly as well.

The bosses suck though. Sub boss is a beefed up Jin Kazama. He's in rage mode throughout the fight with him. So he can pretty much kick your ass twice as hard as a normal Jin would. After you get past him you fight this big Egyptian ass of a boss named Azazel. So he's got invulnerability in neutral stance, can overhead you from the floored position AND has a move that does chip damage even though you switched it off. He's not impossible to defeat though. 10 hit combo spamming should dispose of the Anubis wannabe in no time. (hell I just defeated him with Miguel using jump kick spamming)



This year's installment is a drastic improvement from last year's game. That's saying alot considering SVR 2009 was pretty good. I haven't tried out ladder match yet, but there is supposed to be a light to guide you on where to place your ladder. RR is also supposedly improved, judging by the IGN review.

What I do know is that the new reversal system is great. SVR is actually no longer a button masher game. It now requires timing, skill and precision. More timing, skill and precision can also be found in the new kick out system where you can hold A button and release at the highlighted point. Finisher system is also pretty cool. The momentum bar fills up like normal. Eventually, you will accumulate enough bar for your signature. Performing this move successfully instantly gives you full bar, meaning you can finish off your opponent.

The create a finisher system for front grapple is the same. nothing new. The aerial finishers are pretty lame, but hey, just to add in a few Kinnikuman-esque finishers, why not? (think about it, crank the trajectory to minimum and hang time to maximum, the result is ridiculous)

On a side note, WWE totally ripped off EA Sports' Training ground style areas. Think about it, in this game, they tell you press start, you do so and you end up in "The Training Facility". Do the same in FIFA or Live and you'll be taken to "The Arena" and "The Hangar" respectively. Oh well. Good job on WWE's part. If you're gonna rip off something at least do it well and believe me, this training facility is one that should have appeared years ago.

Final Comment
DLC Stone Cold Steve Austin is broken. Overall 97 WTF!?

Tough Week

seriously... it's been a tough week, and liverpool's loss doesn't help either.

SOCCER
I think it's pretty much official, I hate Rafa Benitez. Not because he's a terrible manager, but because he plays with Kopite minds so badly. He makes us think that we're going to be big and finally knock Man U off THEIR f***ing perch (e.g. Champions League Istanbul, 3 consecutive wins vs Man U), and then he goes right up ahead and trips at the finishing line (Getting edged out by Man U, loss to FULHAM!?). so yeah, I'm fed up with Rafa and I'm deciding which manager is suitable to replace him.

RECENT EVENTS
Up until now I was pretty pissed at the fact that virtually everyone around me was in a relationship. But as of now I'm starting to see more people around me who have experienced breakups. And the results are just terrible. I've seen just how backstabbing some girls can actually be and after seeing horrible aftershock effects I'm starting to question myself on whether I really want to be in a relationship or not. I'm just really confused right now.

Final Comment
Angsty teen is angstyplz

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrggghhhhhhhhhhh!!!! CHICKEN CANCER!!!!!!!!!

BACKGROUND
So school's just finished and Enoch and I decide to stop over at Admiralty KFC to get a bite after a gaming session of Big Two. We ordered pretty much all we needed for a decent meal and Mohan, being the generous friend that he is, gives us... what you say... extras? and by extras I mean a Bandito Pocket and two extra Snackers. It may not sound like much but I had already ordered one box of snackers and an ultimate value box. Enoch got the UVM and cheese fries.

THE INCIDENT
The bandito pocket has all sorts of weird sauces inside it, so I assigned that to Enoch. He stopped after a full box of cheese fries, the pocket and one piece chicken. So I was left with... 2 pieces of chicken, 2 shroom burgers, 2 small mashed potatoes, a bunch of fries and shared winglets and popcorn chicken (aka the other 2 snackers). After the meal(s), we felt kinda groggy so we had a checkup and this is what we discovered...

DIAGNOSIS
Enoch, having eaten about 1/2 a chicken, was diagnosed with stage 1 chicken cancer. I, having eaten approximately one full chicken, was diagnosed with stage 3 chicken cancer.

Wait...WTF IS CHICKEN CANCER?
Cancer, as you may or may not know, occurs when cells in the body lack a gene to tell it to die. Therefore they just stay there as bad cells and kinda help the other good cells rot too. Since we ate a crap load of chicken, we were now practically chickens... because we are what we eat. And chickens lack the gene to die, evidenced by the phrase "running around like a HEADLESS CHICKEN". So uhh yeah...

EPILOGUE
Luckily the good news is that the doctors said we could easily crap out all these bad cells (literally... if you catch my drift...) before they could "infect" us, so we're pretty much ok now.

TV
"WHAT IS LOVE?" - Haddaway
These "Melvin" incidents have got me thinking lately, "Does love at first sight exist?". My opinion? Yes... but only because we are so shallow. Find out why by checking out a show called "The Science of Sex Appeal". Basically a group of scientists took a few tests to find out what causes us humans to be attractive. The results: We humans really are that damn shallow. Males are relatively attracted to females with "the curves" because us simpletons perceive those women as "fertile". And the females generally care about the males with high ranking statuses so that they can be protected. Find out more on the show, it is very interesting.

P.S. If you do know what I mean by "Melvin" incidents, good for you. If not, don't ask, my good conscience won't allow me to discuss it with you. By the way this is completely unrelated to "The Streak" in case any of you were thinking of that.

Liverpool 2-0 Man U
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. What a way to end a 4-game losing streak. With a 2-0 win against Man U. Torres scored at 64 min and David Ngog put it beyond doubt at 95 min. 1 from each side sent off via double yellows. Mr Ferguson blamed the refs again (I don't care if he said Liverpool deserved the victory, he was still mumblin for a good minute about how decisions went against him).

Chelsea 5-0 Blackburn
W...T...F... Blackburn... you suck... If there's anything that's good about this game is that if Chelsea win the League at least Liverpool isn't knocked off their f******* perch yet.

FEATURED ARTICLE

http://news.sg.msn.com/regional/article.aspx?cp-documentid=3661552

Just read it. In a nutshell, a pregnant woman is on the fated flight to Borneo and goes into labour halfway. The plane proceeds to make an emergency stop to Kuala Lumpur but before they reach there the baby is born. It was delivered by a doctor on board the plane. And what does she get for causing this hullabaloo? She gets... free flights for life?! The baby gets the same too! You know, she DID delay the plane, thus causing a lot of inconvenience and probably causing a few unfortunate businessmen to miss their meetings. Hell, she probably got a free delivery from the doctor on board. Man!
