NOKIA HANDPHONES I'm sure all of you know NOKIA. Their phone models are the coolest and most common around. They release a new model, like, every month, so it's easy to lose track of which one is new and hip. And NO, I don't work for them...although I wish I do. And they aren't paying me too... that's why picture quality very low.... |

This one is rather pricey. I remember seeing it for RM 1600++. But wait for a while, and the price will come tumbling down. |

I actually used this one before (relative's). Very advanced, but consumes a lot of battery power (a LOT). Suitable for business people only. Costs about RM 2400++ |

The Matrix Reloaded & The Matrix Revolutions (2003) |
|||||
Remember that really cool film, The Matrix, staring Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Ann Moss, Hugo Weaving (Elron in Lord of The Rings) and Laurence Fishburne? Well...it's baaaack... Nothing much is known about the new film, except that Jada Pinkett Smith (Will Smith's wife) is the new face. I gathered a bit of the story line, something about discovering a Matrix within the Matrix, Trinity being an agent, someone more powerful than Neo... and also... there will be more about Zion. I watched a sneak preview on MTV Screen, and found out that two (yes, TWO) Matrix films will be released next year within months in between them. It's actually one film, but was too long, so they had to split it into two. But the story happens within 24 hours... sounds interesting? The trailer was awesome... |
Latest PC Games After a long time of not playing any games (all not appealing), I have rediscovered the joy of computer games. These three games appealed a lot to me, and I am buying all three... Forgive me if it is not THAT new.... after all, I did mention not playing any games for like, a century... |

Age of Mythology (Ensemble - Microsoft Games) |
|
For those of you who has played Age of Empires 1 or 2, this game is a must. It's exactly like Age of Empires, but with a catch: mythology plays a very important part in this game! So if you're a sucker for mythology...get this game!! (also Zeus: The Master of Olympus) This game features 3 civilizations - the Greek, Egyptian and Norse. Each has their own distinct features and gods. Here are some: Greek - gain favor by praying at temples. Heroes are strong but expensive. Army includes Hoplites... Egyptian - gain favor by building monuments. Army is cheap and fast. Army includes Cavalry Archer... Norse - gain favor by engaging in battles. Army is strong but with weak armor. Army includes Huskarl... |

Emperor - Rise of the Middle Kingdom (Impressions Games - Sierra) |
|
From the creators of Caesar, Pharaoh & Zeus, comes Emperor. Each of these games are about building cities of different civilizations. Caesar was of ancient Rome, Pharaoh of ancient Egypt, and Zeus of ancient Greece (with lots of mythology). Emperor is of ancient China...something that I have always been into. It's so cool... I'm lost for words.... |
