Currently there are 2 confirmed character for Diablo 3. Barbarian and Witch Doctor. And 3 more will be named at a later date. Most likely it will be a spell caster, rogue and priest class. No surprise there really. Yes Blizzard, here's an evil eye to you!
For myself i'd love to see a SHAPESHIFTER CLASS! No, not like the stupid druids or ware animal nonsense. I'm talking about pure Shapeshifting here guys. A character who can temporarily turn into a demon / monster / elemental / spirit / dragon / etc. Now that would be something really interesting and new to see. The character would have to go through a journey and do quest in order to obtain these forms. Ofcouse there are a limited number of forms he/she can shift into but the idea is there. The Other class I would love to play just cause it looks hot & cool at the same is the Succubus! Maybe somewhere in the storyline after D2, a succubus had fallen from hell's grace and align herself with the forces of heaven! hahaha! my imagination is going crazy now! She can be your typical sorceress with hell powers for all I care but the thought of playing a Succubus is INCREDIBLY SEXY!
I just found this out today. This is very sad news indeed. Michael is my favorite comic book artist since I first saw his masterpieces when I was 15. That was over ten years ago and his art has always been an inspiration to me. My heart and condolences goes out to his family and loved ones. Here's to a great artist now in loving memory. "We here at Comic Book Resources are very sad to report that artist Michael Turner has died after a long battle with cancer. He was 37. Aspen Comics’ Vince Hernandez told CBR News Saturday morning that Turner passed away Friday night at 10:42 Pacific Time at Santa Monica Hospital in Calfiornia. The news spread quickly at Wizard World Chicago, during what would have otherwise been a riotous night at the hotel bar, the mood suddenly turned somber with remembrances of Turner from friends and acquaintances. A minute of silence will be observed during Wizard World Chicago Saturday afternoon." (More @ source)
DIABLO 3 is official. I've died and gone to heaven!
AND THE HEAVENS SHALL TREMBLE
Two decades have passed since the demonic denizens, Diablo, Mephisto, and Baal, wandered the world of Sanctuary in a vicious rampage to shackle humanity into unholy slavery. Yet for those who battled the Prime Evils directly, the memory fades slowly and the wounds of the soul still burn.
When Deckard Cain returns to the ruins of Tristram's Cathedral seeking clues to new stirrings of evil, a comet from the heavens strikes the very ground where Diablo once entered the world. The comet carries a dark omen in its fiery being and it calls the heroes of Sanctuary to defend the mortal world against the rising powers of the Burning Hells – and even the failing luminaries of the High Heavens itself.
With all the crazy petrol increase I feel lucky that our company gave us a petrol card right from the very beginning. With all the hike in prices, it would definitely blow a hole in my monthly gaji if it weren't for the card. Cheers!
OK. I have to admit that I haven't been reading the newspaper in a long while since I get all my news online anyways. But the other day I was reading The Star newspaper - Star Two pullout specifically; And I was quite surprise by the amount of beauty ads and articles in that pullout. I mean, there's other stuff on charity work and gadgets but you cant help notice the amount of these beauty stuff like slimming, fat buster creams, vitamins for the skin, wrinkle treatment, etc. I guess what the editors choose to put into the papers is a reflection of the type of society we live in today. So I must say this...SEE! I'm not the only shallow/superficial person in Malaysia! I feel better now.
Just finished watching Kung-Fu Panda and overall I give it a 6/10. Don't get me wrong but this movie is meant for kids mainly. If you are looking for something abit deep then this movie is not for you. I went with a couple of friends so we laughed alot and it was entertaining. Dont go there for the storyline or deep meaning. Go for the silly jokes and laughs. :-)
Warhammer Online finally revealed their final career class for High Elves - The White Lion! Although it looks cool but I'm still into the army of darkness! Full story click here.
It breaks my heart every time I watch this video. It's so sad. From what I hear, Duffy actually cried for real in this video cause it reminded her of a past relationship.
Things are going OKAY for now at work. Compared to handling telco previously, this is a nice change. Not because I have more time on my hands but for the fact that each job actually require us to take a step back and THINK! Our current clients are very particular about the strategic direction, planning and the big idea before any actual work can be done. If they think the strategy is shaky, then we'll have to rethink it until we get it right. Which I think is good cause I get to learn and develop more critical and analytical thinking. We still get rush job every now and then but not on a weekly basis like before. phewh!
Having said that, I think its a fragile balance right now cause of the 'other' acct which I'm suppose to be helping out temporarily is getting more and more.....Hectic. I haven't been doing any actual execution work but I have been attending some of their meetings. YA ALLAH!!!! One meeting can go on for 5 HOURS! And they will keep changing and changing everything on the visual or/and script. I cant blame them also cause the clients side have many levels of approvals and on top of that, they are not familiar with the whole advertising process. So, I have a very bad feeling that I'm gonna get raped by this acct very soon.
I was in the gym this morning doing shoulder press-ups with dumbbells. Maybe its because I was tired from doing many reps so i lost focus.....Halfway through one of the rep, down comes tumbling the left dumbell while it was in the up position. I must have lost balance. SHIT! It was so painful! Felt like someone had twisted my arm 360 degrees. Gila lah. I dont think there's any permanant damage but my left shoulder is abit sore now. If anything pun, I think its just a minor sprain. Thank God.
The Game looks pretty awesome. If i weren't broke, I'd definitely be getting this game already. So far the preview and semi-reviews looks promising. *sigh* Maybe I do need a Couger...
I don't know if it's an Asian thing or what but so far I've not heard of mat salleh going on pantang - HMM! Maybe they call it "Diets". Anyhoos...from what I know, the Chinese and Malays tend to have mantang makan. Cannot eat cabbage cause its considered cold food la, Tak boleh makan Manggo nanti lutut sakit la, Tak boleh makan banyak terung nanti perut kembong la....haihh. HONESTLY, I think if everyone watch what they eat and exercise regularly, most of the sakit lutut, perut kembong, pening kepala nonsense won't happend in the first place.
Another random picture when Zahir went trigger happy with the camera. He was so overwhelm by the hotness of this picture that he took MC the next day (Serious!). And look at Zack in the picture. Classic tongue pose.
I live at home with my cousin as a roommate. The other day someone asked me how's it like having a cousin as a roomie and I replied that is was great. We are like the sun and moon. When he's awake, i'll be far asleep and when he's up, it already time for me to sleep. He lives the nightlife like a vampire and I am a day time person. Works perfectly for me I must say.
Its Wesak day today! Happy Wesak day to my Wesak celebrating friends. Even though it's a holiday today on Monday, my body clock still wakes me up at 5.30am. O well... might as well enjoy the morning!
One of my favorite Malaysian ads. A Coca-Cola advertisement that was done back in 97/98. Honestly I thought they did a great job in localizing the brand but yet making it fun and preserving the brand essence.
On Traffic Jam As soon as you switch lane, your original lane will start moving faster.
On Advertising (Client Servicing) Your job brief will never be clear enough for the creative team. On Advertising (Creative) Your award winning visuals will never be as good as the client’s stick drawings.
I don't have any example right now but I've noticed some ads in Malaysia are trying to be clever or appear witty. Maybe its because I'm in this industry and I tend to pick on the littlest thing but I really don't like it when the ad feels forced or when there are too many layers in the joke. An ad is suppose to SELLLLLLL the product. It's great if creativity can flow within the delivery but it should not be forced.
I'd rather listen to those hard-sell Kamdar / Beras Jati ads rather than so-called clever witty award winning ads. No doubt some of them are good but not those who are trying too hard or have too many layers in the delivery. Like my clients always say.."dumb dumb it abit" or simply put it, KEEP IT SIMPLE!
I'll try to find some sample one of these days and post em here.
