GYAMZ

Hey guys, I'm Tony. I like gyamz.

I will quickly talk about Demon's Souls today. Demon's Souls is an action RPG for the PS3. (Playstation 3 ) This game is an exclusive to PS3.

This game is known to be very challenging and unforgiving. Games in our generation, we are given everything with no punishment for mistakes. For example if you played World of Warcraft since Burning Crusade or earlier and compare it to Wrath of the Lich King, you will know what I mean.

So if you expect to lose nothing every time you make a mistake, don't try this game, because you will make a lot of mistakes and start from the beginning all over again.

If you watched the trailer, the game does look pretty boring. And if you happen to be watching a friend playing the game, apparently it is boring as well.

So if you are actually playing the game, you get to choose your class like a Soldier or Magician. For every character you make, you can allocate points into attributes like Strength, Vitality, Magic and Intelligence. You can do this every time you level up. Your character will also have equipment slots, from head to toe. You will then try to fight your way to the end of the dungeon.

However, if your PS3 is connected to the internet. You can also summon up to two 'Blue Phantom' to aid you, but be aware of faggots that will invade your world as a 'Black Phantom'. These black phantoms are real players. Most of these players will have some kind of PvP build and most likely destroy you, but if you want to be a faggot too, you can always just plug pull your PS3. This is the PvP element of this game, and at higher levels of the game there is an active PvP community.

If you somehow do manage to complete the game, well New Game+ awaits you. The difficulty will be increased by 50%, and then another 8% every time carry on again to New Game+.

Score: 8.5/10

Dilemmas

Going back to Taiwan in the mid year holidays. Not sure if I should buy a DSLR, a decent video camera, or just save money and buy more clothes. ZZzzzz..

Well the benefits for buying a DSLR are pretty obvious, I can take mean pictures of my trip and also be useful in the future for taking pictures. As for the video camera, I can make films of my trip and also use in the future for videoing myself when practising bboying. Hmmmm. Decisions..

Also, another thing that's been on mind lately is if I should get my skulls hemmed, I quite like the stacks most of the times, but sometimes it seems a bit too much.If someone can help me answer these questions in my mind.. please help.. lol.

Season changes suck nuts, I always get sick every season change. Need more people to sing "soft kitty" to me ^^.

Got no relevant multimedia for these thoughts in my mind, however I thought I'd share this interesting video about a Bboy talking about synergy.

Martin's Music Vol. 2

I went along with some friends the other night to watch a New Zealand production of the Broadway musical, Rent. But I'm still waiting in some photos so i'll have to hold off on writing a proper blog on my Rent experience until I get them. So for now I thought i'd blog about some more music that i'm diggn' at the moment



Mos Def - Auditorium (Feat. Slick Rick)
I also found this clip of Mos Def breaking down Auditorium, how the song came about and what he was thinking when he wrote the lyrics. The way he explains his lyrics makes the meaning seem really clear, well the part he explains anyway, check it out:





The Roots ft. Erykah Badu - You Got Me



Common - Everywhere
Probably one of my favourite tracks off Universal Mind Control, he's got a concert in Auckland next month and i'm still in the midst of debating with myself whether I should go or not as the concert is in the middle of my exams and i'm pretty sure I have an exam on the day. Sigh

Grease Zynga

Been watching this clip over and over again. Classic musical, catchy, good lyrics and nice melodies. What more can a human being expect from life? Grease is pretty dope, probably one of my favourite musicals of all time (sound of music is pretty mean too). Many of us at some time of our lives most likely loved grease, but has forgotten about how beautiful this film is. Keen as to watch grease on DVD at Sop's house now.

Also, selvedge denim in the first second (0:01) of the film.

In the past few days, due to watching Jaishan and Blair playing Zynga poker. I have recently re-found another old love of mine, Texas Hold'em. The thrill of getting the best hand, feeling proud with a great bluff you made and betting correctly to win the pot, these are many of the few joys in life which I now realise I have been missing out on.

Please send me free chips :D.

I can feel myself catching a cold, the weathers so crap nowadays and constantly changing. I hope everyone brings an extra layer to uni and keep themselves warm! don't make the same mistake I did!

CON-GRAD-ULATIONS!

So this week is graduation week. I should be graduating at this time but unfortunately I am not. Then again I don't want to work just yet and would rather stay at uni for as long as possible as after that my life is basically over.

CONGRATULATIONS:
JESSEY

Oh yeah, I had my first Camera battle, which I easily won!

Sara Bareilles

With martin posting up what he's been jamming to lately, it has inspired me to share the music which I've been listening to as well.

Stumbled across Sara Bareilles while visiting a friends blog where she used her song "gravity" as the background music.

Whether you are in or out of love, her songs are all quite touching and pretty mean to chill to, or get you into the mood for study.

Martin's Music

A few jams that i've been jamming to lately



Corinne Bailey Rae - Paris Nights / New York Mornings
Wow, such a soulful, chill song. A slightly funky beat paired with Corinne Bailey Rae's beautiful voice makes this song good to have on repeat while working/studying. I must remember to buy her latest CD at some point.



Wu-Tang Clan-Can It Be All So Simple



The Fugees - Fu-gee-la
I really like the beat of this song and Lauryn's voice is so powerful.



Nirvana - Come as You Are (Live Acoustic)
A song i'd heard a number times during my younger years, but only really started appreciating recently. Probably because my musical taste is more open than it once was.

Theres so much good music out there
