PS 2 DVD games to scatter

21 November, 2008 Jayden 15 comments

Ladies and gentlemen, today might be your lucky day. Read on to know why.

Here is some of the games that I loved.

ps-2-dvd-free-1
// Tenchu – I like this game because it feels good to stealth, ambush and to kill. You travel around many places like jungle, cave, japanese styled houses and mansion. I get a lot of pleasure (last time) by infiltrating people’s base and stalk them. HAHA

ps-2-dvd-free-2// Zone of Enders – I was a big fan of Squaresoft (Square-Enix), Tri-Ace, Konami, Namco and others. Z.O.E is a quality game produced by Konami, the producer of the famous “Metal Gear Solid series”. The game is swift and exciting since the beginning of everything. (I’ve completed all PS2’s MGSs =] )

ps-2-dvd-free-3

// One of the greatest hit of PS2, Self explanatory. I missed those CGs and real voice acting, it was the evolution at that era!

ps-2-dvd-free-5

// Fatal Frame II – One of the best horror game in PS2! You get to explore and ‘kill’ the ghost by ’shooting’ the ghost with a ‘camera’. You will run out of ‘film’ instead of ‘bullets’, you press the shutter instead of the trigger. This is what makes this game different from others. Walking and viewing the scene through the ‘viewfinder’ of the camera is cool and scary, because you have to be alert and ghost might be just behind you. Story revolves around two sisters found themselves lost in an unknown village. The village is performing some kind of ritual and the sisters have no idea that they are actually involved and needed in the ritual.

// Unlimited saga, arc the lad, Disgaea, Breath of fire 5, Sninobi, Resident Evil: dead aim are some of my favourites.

Nethertheless, gaming is history, I quit gaming ever since my PS 2 broke down few years ago and we didn’t bother to fix it because exam was going on that time. After exam, we got addicted to Dota and never crave PS2. When all the hype about Dota is gone, I found myself a part time job and spent most of my time working and hanging out with friends instead of playing games at home. Until today, PS 2 remain broken and I have no idea where it went. I miss the good all ’sofa hugging’ days in the past, but I doubt that I’ll be settling down in that sofa and touch the sleek controller again. As we grow older, we began to realize that time is not enough, (for me, at least). I’ll focus and spent my extra hours in a day in other area. (well, i MIGHT get (‘hoot’) a PS3 in the future if money and time is not a worry. HAHA)

Stage 2 of Tri Xtreme Season 2

2 July, 2008 Jayden 13 comments


Stage 2 of HSBC Tri Xtreme Season II kicked off on Sunday, 29th June 2008! There’s 6 Challenges in total and teams are required to complete as many challenges and as quick as possible. We were busy attempting the challenge and time for photos are limited. I’ll let the pictures do the taking here.

//Listening to instructions at the Hawker Stalls @ Jerudong Park

The organiser controlled the traffic by giving out ‘Block Puzzle’ to solve within 30 minutes, teams who are able to complete the puzzle earns the extra privileges to start their game early without the risk of queuing. However, after 30 minutes, all teams may start their challenges with the ‘block puzzle’ unsolved. There’s 4 teams (i think i managed to get it done within the 30 minute limit, and we were not one of them.

The organiser further controlled the traffic by smartly allocating different teams into different ‘Zone’ (challenges). Upon completing their first, required challenges, they may go to other zone (challenges) in any order they like, as long as they completed all and arrive back to the gathering point before 1pm.

Game 1 – Speed Racer

//One of the challenges at Go Kart.
This ‘Speed Racer’ game doesn’t compete on who’s the fastest driver alone. It is a test of memory. There’s 20 logos being placed on different bends of the tracks and we were required to memorise them IN ORDER. After completing a circuit, 1 member gets out and another gets in and continue driving / memorising. All answers must be handed in within 15 mins (or 10?)

What’s so hard? – IDENTIFYING the logo. I didn’t know “CALTEX” exist until my team mate tell me.

Game 2 – Eww!!

This game requires a team member of 4 and it works like a chain. It goes like this, Member 1 do something, take something to Member 2, member 2 uses it to do the task and pass to Member 3 and so on.


Task 1
– A member (Member 1) is required to dig his/her hands inside this bucket of hands to find tiny keys.

The Ew? – There’s earthworms inside! And we let Shenny to do it. Girl + Nail don’t mix with Worm + Sand much.

Task 2 – After finding all 6 keys, Member 2 must use the keys to unlock the correct box out of 6 to find a plastic bag. I attempted this.



The Ew? You gotta use your fingers to dig through piles of dead raw fish.

Another box, can someone identify what are those red coloured stuff? It’s stinks after staying under the hot sun for hours.

The Ew? – Possibly the smell and the fact that the fish is RAW.

Task 3 - Member 3 (Carmen from my team) is required to take the spoon out from the plastic bag found in the previous’s box, hold the spoon with his/her mouth and carry  these chicken liver (?) from a bowl and top up on the weighting machine (?) until its 100g.

The Ew? – “chicken liver is not disgusting, but there are flies around the liver!” said Carmen.

Task 4 – Member 4’s (HanLuen) task is not EW but rather tiring. Member 4 ought to scoop the sands from the red bucket and drop it in the blue’s. Once the blue bucket reached a certain level, Member 4 gotta run back to the starting point to complete the game.

//Hanluen likes to act cool in every photo, therefore i take this opportunity to upload his ‘uncool’ shots that i took. =D

The Ew? – Nothing Ew, maybe ’sweats’ ?

PHOTOS

I’m aint gonna post all the challenges here, it’ll be too long. From here on, pictures with captions.

Although we didn’t get pass the second round, i enjoyed all the challenges and the fun. We understand how ’second stage’ is and maybe, we’ll be able to do better in ’season 3′! We were weak on ‘block puzzle’, not so good on ‘memory’ and can’t find out the word for ‘hire purchase’ on “Triple threat” challenge. At the end of the day, We forged a greater friendship and understanding among our team. (HL is an ‘aeroplaner’, Carmen should work on her stamina and Shenny must work on her fears.) B$20 for all these fun and experience is definitely a bargain!

We went to the beach to enjoy and managed to take many nice photos! Will be uploading them in the next post.

SATA – I’m doing a Hair Show tomorrow at either Mall or Rizqun, not so sure, but the main point is that they made an “Army Haircut” for me. Guess I’ll be wearing caps more often now. What should I work more on (related to post)?  I miss my hair~ Looking forward to Sunday’s Audition in CCMS & Post Event Celebration! Time is too little.
