360

Man.. I thought I wouldn't buy this thing anymore after wasted 1 caused by a 3RROD aka 3 Red Ring Of Death... but, got caught up in seriously best deal, RM1.1K for a brand new Elite (Market is around RM1.4K unmodded).. I accidentally bought it. Still I have done a lot of research b4 that, always updating with news on the Jasper set and for a year long clean RROD.. could be one the factor i bought it.

At first I thought it wasn't modded.. then I tried backup copy of Tekken 6 which I asked the seller to pick one along the way.. and it runs fine.. Now that I know it was modded so, I can't go online!, what a shame.. .. I don't know whether it's a good or bad news.. The pros is I can play very cheap games, and the con is I cannot go online.. hmmm.. still got the PS3 for that (and free summore ^^)

Anyway, having a 360 felt a bit nostalgic since its the first new-gen console that I bought which gave me an awe for it's graphics long time ago.. It's been 2 or 3 years since my last 360 (not fully mine actually, shared with my brothers) died which leaves dozens of original games, which, only finished playing 2 or 3.. and so by having this new baby maybe I'll finish the rest of it.

So.. that leaves only one console for this current gen.. that is a Nintendo Wii.. doubt I'll buy it.. the graphics is like old gen.. similar to old xbox (that I still got it as a media player in my bedroom) except for the control schemes. If I bought it maybe because of the games... it even doesn't support HDs

I know someone might be wandering how am I gonna finish all the games that I bought.. the truth is.. I don't really know.. since the PS2 era, I bought, pop the dvd in, play a bit, then keep.. with so limited times and full time job, which also having me full commitment into it.. I think I can't... darn it.. I'll be missing lots of good adventuring there..><

or maybe I'm just a collector ^^

Heavy Contrast

I've been reading a lot through the internet since early in 1990s or maybe earlier.. and one thing that very much annoys me is Over Contrast between the use of background and foreground.. Reading blogs with WHITE font vs BLACK background really hurt my eyes.. when I put away my eyes after reading them, I got this horizontal lines like Burnt-In effect such as you got in your old tube TVs when idling too long.. So, to anyone who are using this Over Contrast on their blog, please change it to a softer one, THANK YOU!


Btw, black font with white background is natural.
