Congratz to those who received an offer from Oxford University. Those who hasn’t got any news, in due time.

And for those who got a rejection, live it up already. Some of the university offers you got are too good to be true.

Blackadder

Posted in General, Videos at 8:16 pm by alvinyoo

Starting to love this 1980s British comedy series, starring the famous Rowan Atkinson. Also, if you want to see the young Hugh Laurie up-close, watch Season 3 and Season 4. Unfortunately, he isn’t as cranky in this case as he is in House M.D, but rather, absurdly stupid.

Season 3 Episode 1

Episode 2

Episode 3

Episode 4

Episode 5….

Gah! Lazy copy and paste. Go youtube and search for Blackadder. I do not know how many episodes are there for each seasons. Go on, search on your own.

Those who thinks Halo 3 have better features than Crysis, shut the fuck up! Where’s the realistic features in Halo when Crysis actually delivers it all. Here are some facts that you imbeciles should consider first before slandering Crysis fans as amateur fps player.

Fact 1: Crysis has a critic’s rate on par with Halo 3 by major gaming multimedias such as IGN, Gamespot, Gamespy etc. etc.

Fact 2: According to almost all gaming corporates, developers and publishers, Crysis is the sole key that will revolutionize the gaming world. It’s features are the best among the best. Next-Gen physics system, Advanced rope physics system, incredibly intellectual A.I., highly-realistic sound system, stunning graphic effects, dynamic day and night cycle, breakable structures (organic and inorganic), incomparable parallax occlusion mapping system, amazingly realistic facial animation etc etc. These are the features that gamers would love to describe in one word – realistic. Can Halo 3 deliver that?

Fact 3: Be delegate enough if you’re a smart man. Truth is that the mapping schematics, routes, local buildings are actually derived from the real original vicinity, known as the Lingshan Island (which is also named the same in the game). As I said before, please be delegate because there are no North Koreans or Aliens as stated in the game.

To sum it all, Crysis is better than Halo 3. Live with that fact, bastards.
