Mechcommander 2

Friday, May 11th, 2007

You know what? Microsoft gave Mechcommander 2 to the public!!! NOW IT’S FREE!!! ARRRGGHHHH!!! MUAHAHAHA!!! I’m a mechcommander fan!! You can’t even imagine how I feel!! It’s like Bill Gates coming to my house at Jalan Gelama Satu and saying: “Halo? Uncle? Ada orang tak? Eh, ada barang percuma! Mainan percuma..”

But of course that’s impossible, Bill Gates only speaks coding language and I’ve no chimney for him to climb down. Wait. hmmm… that’s sounds incorrect.

Anyway here’s what Mechcommander 2’s all about:

You command mechs and run around shooting things,

You can call in support,

You can repair your mechs,

Then you run around more shooting anything and everything,

..*sigh…muahahah!!!

I’ve finished the game already(2nd time!!). Hopefully after mid-term exams I’d persuade some friends to play the multiplayer one!! woohoo!!

p.s. more pics here.

Labour day…

…the day when all babies are born.

Anyway, today has been a long day. I was involved in Eden’s Day fund raising, Vietnamese Easter Service and my Kae Deng’s birthday party.

I will share with you, the highlight of my day – the birthday party. Was it the food that made it great? No! Was it my friends? Not really. Was it the BBQ grill and the atmosphere of night time dining? I don’t like BBQ, because by the time your chicken wing’s done, you’d be over done and crisp. Hey! It wasn’t my birthday party!

Deep inside a man lays the raw and brute urge to be Ah Bengish. It’s an urge that makes us man. So I did one of my life’s dream and so felt that God had somehow accomplished in my life one of my life’s many purposes.

Back tracking a bit, Woon Cherk recently had his red Kancil fitted with super-ultra-blastable sound system, courtesy of his brother-in-law (to my brother-in-law, *hint*). So he asked me to check it out during the party. So I sat in the passenger seat he let his speakers shake the car like a bee making milk shakes.
Ahem. I think you should already know what I did. I asked for his permission, stepped into the driver’s seat, rolled down the window, laid deep into the seat, stuck my elbow out the window and asked Woon Cherk to press “play”. In all Ah Bengness I passed by my friends birthday party. I felt so cool. I was the pinnacle of Ah Bengness. Well, not really. I didn’t have sunglasses on. So, not Ah Beng enough.

In short, it was highly therapeutic and addictive. Recommended to all for ONLY A BRIEF MOMENT.
