Been two weeks since my last report..
This time..will be about the Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars launch event. The event was held at LIDO Cineplex @ Shaw House. Arranged to meet my friend there at 11am but he started queing at 10am and meet him at the venue itself. Suprised to see at least 20 people queing already...some standing or lazing around....went over and joined my friend...who is the 10th person...which makes me the 11th...phew~
Was lucky to be the first few...few of us are getting impatient and were complaining that we still have 2 hours before the event will commence at 2pm. We sit down there...eating...joking..and staring at good looking gals walking by ^-^
Its natural ma....for a guy...or a bunch of us...hahaha!! Saw a few with explicit details from them...*drooling...*
Enough of those..haha...oh ya...I saw a news reporter cum news caster at the event before it started...guess those who watched news will recognise his face. Able to get one picture of him...will post pictures at the end.
1.55pm
The reporter came out..with two camera man beside him...filming the scene and we are dodging those "cannons" they are holding.
He was interviewing the first guy...naturally...and we were just few steps behind them...;)
2pm
The first 20-30 people are allowed to enter the event "hall" and lined up. Some kinda short speech was going on but who cares? WE WANT THE GAME!!!
Finally..being able to lay my hands on the so-called Tiberium Bag with the goodies and one additional mouspad was given only at launch. After that...I realised that the little queue that I've seen earlier has become a long one...VERY long indeed...went round the 5th floor twice....OMG!! Lucky we were early 'birds'....
That's all of it....pitctures coming up.....and reports of my computer and laptop soon!! Watch out..

The event note above the place that accompanied us for 2-3 hrs...=]

Command & Conquer 3

AHH...here's the pic with the news reporter...his name is Zhi Hao..if I remembered..

So many were present...this was when the speech takes place

Full contents of what's inside the bag and the green mouspad...GDI
Stay tuned......

Today has been a tiring one....when down to the IT Show at Suntec City twice...duh~
Wasted lotsa money on fares lo....=(( EZ-Link card has a negative value now...LOL!!
Its been a fun day also lah...haha...went down to Ms Ng's new place...its nice...but prefer mine..hehe...its good that we can meet up each other and catch up with old times...
Just loving it!!
Talking bout the IT show...its crowded...as usual of course...11.30am reach the Convention Centre and its filled with loads of people....terrible...doors aren't open yet there were so many waiting outside...that's the craze of the famous IT fairs in Singapore...3 times annually...
Looking around for PSPs as my friends wanted to get one...SO EXPENSIVE!!
$325 for a PSP with a game....told them to get one at Sim Lim will be better...I was looking for computer parts for my new system...HARD!
Asked around...but what were offered wasn't what I was looking for...Sianzzzz~
Bought a ASUS DVD writer with LightScribe for my dad and a piece for RAM for the new system...1 Gigabyte=D
Nothing much to shop there....most of the parts I want wasn't selling there...so had to go down to Sim Lim to get what I want...so happy to get a new system....my present one..seems to be obsolete...new games cannot be played...new programs cannot run...headache lehs....
Oh ya...I've collected my Ridge Racer 7 for my PS3 this afternoon...everyone at the IT Show was queing up just to lay their hands on the PS3...but I can enjoy it at home...wahahahaha~
That's all for today....nothing nice to say....hmm...did I missed someone at the IT Show today??? Hope not....don't wanna regret for not staying there longer...

Was mentioning about the PlayStation 3 two weeks ago when it was announced that its launching on March 7 2007.
I've gotten one set!!!!
Sounds a little stupid...=P
PS3 sets will be limited to those who pre-ordered or went down to the launch party at The Cannery located at Clarke Quay. First 200 will be entertained with the priviledge to own an Official PlayStation 3.
Ordered one set at Sim Lim Square with a game...but according to the shop...Sony delivered the wrong quantity of the game I placed...therefore I couldn't get one yesterday when collected..SAD =(((
Anyway...I've got the set..which is more than enough...here it is:

This is the PlayStation 3 60GB Premium version boxshot.

Up-close of the front

This is how it looks like when first opened. Neat.

SIXAXIS...that's what Sony name it...Bluetooth controller with up to 7 per set
As the name suggested, it can be tilted in six directions when gaming to provide exceptional game play

What's inside the big black box.....

Closer look at the console itself with the controller....~Shiny lehs~

Set up of mine after getting it....*Its off...the red LED tells*

Just taken this morning...shifted its position...
Already downloaded Demos to allow me to expand my game collection instantaneously...although they are just...demos...
Its kinda cool..switching it on and off just buying pressing the PS logo on the Sixaxis....wire and fingerprint free!! Its damn shiny and glossy.....can't bear to touch it..hehes
That's all for my introduction of my new console....after spending S$799 on it...game and accessories costs excluded....but I'm happy to spend that money...=D
*Will update soon*
