This Origin "Big-O" Rig Cost More Than My Kelisa
Origin PC introduces The Big O, a gaming PC with all the bells and whistles, including a liquid-cooled Xbox 360 Slim built right in, and it can be yours today for the price of a small used car.
The high end gaming PC purveyors at Origin PC are known for packing everything they can into their pricey gaming systems, but The Big O takes the cake. The starting configuration combines the power of an Intel Core i7 930 processor overclocked to 4.9GHz, dual NVidia GTX480 graphics cards, and 6GB of Corsair Dominator memory at 1600 MHz into one beefy, completely water-cooled monstrosity of a gaming rig.
And then they add an Xbox 360.
Valkyria Chronicles 2 Review
GAMEZ score :4/5
Story : 4/5
Graphics: 4/5
Gameplay : 5/5
Sound : 4/5
Valkyrie Chronicles 2 may, or may not have been what everyone has been hoping for. Initially thought that it would be released in PS3 as its predecessors it turn out to be released in the PSP which many people were disappointed as they were hoping for a grand sequel to the great initial story of Alicia and Welkin. However, the spectacular gameplay and a new twist to Valkyrie unique art has outshine everyone expectation in the portable device capability to demonstrate its new path.
First Simon, Next Ellen, Now Kara, Left Randy?
Her departure leaves Randy Jackson, who's been with the singing contest from the start, the last judge standing, for now. Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez are the reported front-runners for the panel.

PS3 Building Spotted
PS3 Looks To Outsells X360 Very Soon....
via sankaku :
The PS3 has outsold the Xbox 360 by nearly 50% over the past year, and is projected to overtake the total sales of the Xbox in 2011.
The PS3 is said to have sold 14.3 million units over the past year, compared to 10.3 million for the Xbox 360.
Assuming the miraculous "performance" of Kinect does not reverse this trend (or Move does not accentuate it), total sales of the PS3 are projected to exceed those of the Xbox 360 in the first half of 2011.
Depending on the success of the motion controller rip-offs, the bitterly contested crown of second-place loser in the console market may yet change hands – Nintendo’s position remains completely unassailable however.
Images of the Week 29/7/10
This Vanquish screen shot is nice and cool, whats better is the introduction of the casual mode where all you need to do is to aim at the enemy and the game will shot itself, great for enjoying the fast tempo actions if you're bad at macro.

Dakimakura Madness Plagues You!!
As seen above, it seems that this guy has been infected by the otaku disease that plagues Japan all the way back to his homeland. The terms "dakimakura" meaning "embracing pillows" which is quite common in households. But Japan has evolved them into something that they could proudly bring alongside them for a walk or as a companion outside their home. Actually I am much more amazed at how normal the reaction of that guy surroundings which doesn't seem to give a damn, I guess Americans are much more open minded that I thought.
OneManga has been put to rest (RIP)
A coalition of manga publishers have successfully forced top manga piracy site One Manga offline for good.
The site’s administration posted a statement detailing their decision:
It pains me to announce that this is the last week of manga reading on One Manga (!!). Manga publishers have recently changed their stance on manga scanlations and made it clear that they no longer approve of it.
We have decided to abide by their wishes, and remove all manga content (regardless of licensing status) from the site.

Captain America Will Change!!
Talking with The Los Angeles Times ahead of the upcoming San Diego Comic Con, "Captain America: The First Avenger" director Joe Johnston says that his film will stay true to the comic up to a certain point.
Those changes will include downplaying the ra-ra patriotism of the comic - "We're sort of putting a slightly different spin on Steve Rogers. He's a guy that wants to serve his country but he's not a flag-waver. We're reinterpretating sort of what the comic book version of Steve Rogers was. He wants to serve his country, but he's not this sort of jingoistic American flag" says Johnston.
So what will his character be? "He's just a good person. We make a point of that in the script: Don't change who you are once you go from Steve Rogers to this super-soldier, you have to stay who you are inside, that's really what's important more than your strength and everything. It'll be interesting and fun to put a different spin on the character and one that the fans are really going to appreciate" he adds.
The news comes as two rather spectacular pieces of Comic Con art have hit featuring "Thor" and "Captain America", while a new shot from "Thor" shows off Chris Hemsworth in his character's human guise trying to retrieve his hammer.
This New SC2 Trailer is second to None!!
Makes me wonder why Blizzard doesn't want to make a movie... it would definitely sell!! lolz
Microsoft says Kinect doesn't like Skirts!
Microsoft’s upcoming motion controller Kinect has become the subject of ridicule for its inability to track the legs of people wearing skirts.
Those playing pre-release versions report beskirted women were unable to have their legs recognised.
Similar warnings about baggy clothing have also been circulating – it appears certain fashions simply have no place in the future of gaming.
Kinect has been confirmed by players as requiring wide open spaces of the sort only guaranteed in cavernous American homes, as being dependent on players remaining standing up for many games, and as being only able to actively track a few players at a time – although spectacular when working properly, just how much it can be relied upon to do this is a matter of some concern.
Well, I have a very small room anyways, and it doesn't seem that Kinect would work for me, so I'll vouch for Move ;-)
Zone Of Enders 3? It might turn up into reality!!
Kojima has expressed interest in a third ZoE title, but said he was too busy with Metal Gear Solid 4. That game is done! Adding fuel to the ZoE speculation is the latest Metal Gear Solid Integral podcast, in which the following question was thrown out there: "How many people really want Zone of the Enders a sequel?"
Konami's Aki Saito added, "If there's so many people wanting to see Zone of the Enders, why not put the priority on top, a little further up, you know, but we just want to know."
Saito even encouraged listeners to "make sure you write your comments and we'll check your comments out."

Optimus Prime made in China using rubbishes
China never cease to amaze me with their talents, copying anything and everything possible in this world from gadgets to gigantic figures which truly defines China as no.1 in mastering the art of adaptation. This Optimus Prime is build to contest with the Japan famous 1/1 scale of Gundam which is recently being displayed again in shizuoka.
Best Moments of EVO 2010
via kotaku:
EVO, the annual fighting game world championships, draws thousands of players competing in six games. It has helped create gaming stars like 2010 Super Street Fighter IV champion Daigo Umehara, and a reputation for unbelievable game-play seen nowhere else.
Here's a look at some of our favorite videos from this year's throw-down.
This year's EVO took place the week of July 9 to July 11 with the Super Street Fighter IV tournament headlining the show. Tekken 6 was also present with its share of dramatic matches turned into miniature soap operas by the EVO announcers. While the grand finals of the tournament turned out to be a complete loss for Law and his man-handler Rip, their talents were at their most brutal in the Loser Finals against Mr. Naps shown below
Nightmare revisits photoshop
Well, I know most of you probably have seen worse, been trapped before, believing that the illusions posted on the net is true, and probably even feel victim to one of this scams. Today I shall introduce to you the probability scenarios that could come out from this picture:
1: Its a trap (meaning its a guy who photoshop himself as a girl)
2.If by any slim chances its a "she" then its inevitable that this is a product of some photoshop
3. The pictures are not modified by any means, the "girl" before and after is 2 different person (probably payed money to make this possible)
4. "She" went for plastic surgery
5. I'm pretty much 100% sure this is photoshop though, whenever you see images in small resolution, it means that it has been modified, why? because its that much simpler to modify small pictures so nobody knows it have been altered.... so don't get trapped guys/girls who often patron dating websites!
Poisonous Photoshopping.... The "Eye Burner"
I have seen a lot of photo-shopped images in my life, but this are truly some real mortifying images that could make a baby cry for nights
This Picture just totally Rocks!
Okay, not to be rude.... but I can't stop myself laughing at this resemblances LoL
Unbelievable "Paper" Made Gundam
At first when I was looking at this Freedom Gundam I was amazed by how good looking it is, then when I read on I discover that it was made from paper and I was like.... you kidding me?
At four-feet tall, this Freedom Gundam is the most impressive papercraft I've ever seen. That's right, this thing is made of paper.
The Gundam took 175 pages of paper, 500 parts and two months to build.

Tokyo Game Show is Holding up another Cosplay Event

The people who make the annual Tokyo Game Show happen are pulling out all the stops to boost attendance for the geeky game gathering. The latest tactic to draw more attendees? Even more cosplay and official fighting game tournaments.
Will you use These Condoms?
Ben Marsh's Play Condoms packaging, which aims to "create a desire to purchase the product for aesthetic reasons, rather than the necessity of condoms," promoting safe sex. Make sure to read the NSFW instruction manual. Seen via TinyCartridge.
I wonder if this kind of thing would actually put off some girls when they see their boyfriend carrying along such an "innocent" looking games. But I bet the boyfriend would probably laugh their ass off if their girlfriend give it as a present... lol
Guess who's the new Spiderman?
Andrew Garfield, the dandy man with web hairstyle will be replacing Tobey Maguire as the new Spiderman... well considering the news that the next Spiderman movie will return to its roots where our Peter Parker discovers his new superpower which lets him shoot his liquids from the palm of his hand and stick it anywhere at his whim. (sorry for the misleading vocabulary) . I for one not really a fan of Tobey Maguire as Spiderman.. well he just not that cool enough, but this man...... hmm I don't know, gives off an unique aura I should say? We shall see how it will turn out ^^
The New Xbox Slim does not have 3rod.... but it have the "Red Eye"
Well most of you are probably aware that Microsoft will begin shipping their new Xbox "Slim" codenamed Valhalla to most of the states (Malaysia too) in the next few weeks and also comes with a 250gb and 120gb version of it. There is also a bundled package together with the Kinect which is the new motion control system for the console.
What you don't probably know is... this new xbox apparently said to have solved the 3rod problems.... how you ask? by cleverly removing the ability to display the 3rod on its power button. Instead they now have the "blinking eye of death"
Makinami Mari Tops the Newtype Rankings
The recent release of Evangelion 2.22 has seen all three female leads seize long vacated top spots in the latest Newtype character rankings, with new girl Makinami Mari Illustrious successfully besting not only Yui, Tenshi, and Yuri, but also her costars Rei and Asuka… Well the movie itself is really great, you guys should check out the blu-ray version of the movie!
The Biggest Gaming Events is Here E3! Part III : Nintendo 3DS
The week before E3 is always a gathering storm of rumor, hype, and anticipation. Friday, however, delivered something unusual even for the usual pre-expo chatter: A potential look at what could be a show-stealer for Nintendo.
The Biggest Gaming Events is Here E3! Part II : Natal is renamed "Kinectic"
There's no need for conjecture; Microsoft's upcoming motion control peripheral, once known as Project Natal, is now to be officially known as "Kinect".
"For lots of people, that controller is a barrier," Microsoft creative director Kudo Tsunoda told USA Today. "We set out to make a new control paradigm where anybody can get in and play, without having to read the instructions or learn a complicated set of controls."
The Biggest Gaming Events is Here E3! Part I : New Xbox revealed
It appears, going by some advertisements popping up online just before E3 kicks off, that Microsoft plans to unveil a new model of the Xbox 360. What, then, does this new console bring to the table?
For starters, as you can see, the most immediate difference is in the look of the machine. Gone are the smooth lines of the current model, replaced by something that looks sharp, and angry. It's definitely not the path I thought Microsoft would take in trying to make the Xbox 360 more "family focused", and I'm not a fan of its "PC case mod" design.
This is Probably where the iPhone franchise is heading
Impossibe? with Apple anything is possible.... lol
Nerd Rage when GF deletes his WoW characters
A girlfriend who sadistically deleted her boyfriend’s MMORPG characters without his knowledge and secretly filmed his explosive reaction has been the subject of no small opprobrium.

A Boy Get Married To A Cow for Raping it (LoL)
A boy accused of having sex with a cow was forced to marry the beast despite his protestations that the cow seduced him with honeyed words.
The 18-year-old, a resident of the island of Bali in Indonesia, was spotted interfering with a cow whilst naked in a paddy field.
He allegedly admitted the act, but claimed the animal was at fault because it “seduced him” by making flattering comments.
Village elders decided the only way for him to make penance for this unnatural act was to marry the cow.
It is not clear whether they accepted his explanation about the encounter being the result of bovine flattery.
The marriage ceremony was duly held in font of an audience of several hundred, with the boy fainting from shame.
Unlike a conventional marriage ceremony, the unfortunate bride was subsequently taken to a river and drowned, with the boy escaping with a symbolic dunking.
p/s I guess that boy missed out a wife who can provide him with milk every morning... LoL!
P3P is shaping up to be quite Nice!
Just when I thought I won't ever have the chance to play Persona 3 since I sold my ps2 to my friend, luckly they are porting it to psp with improved content =D

4000$ for this War Machine Suit
The 25-year-old fitness consultant has been a life-long Iron Man fan, and his first attempt was more of a costume. His second? His second is a US$4,000 dollar suit held together by high-impact urethane and, according to Popular Science, over 1,500 rivets and washers. Le sculpted the helmet from clay and then created the finished product from resin.
Le decided to make this War Machine suit, the one that Stark's buddy Jim Rhodes wears in Iron Man 2, because, as he tells PopSci, "it just looks more hardcore". That it does.
