[Prototype]

Ek het gister n nuwe titel vir die PS3 gekry, n titel genaamd [Prototype], n titel wat freakin awesome is! As jy like van n fast paced slasher tipe game, is hierdie die game vir jou. Ek is heel impressed met die hele gevoel van die game, en die controls is eenvoudig en maklik om te gebruik. Die hele storie speel in New York af wat deur een of ander virus of iets oorvat is en al die mense in zombies laat verander het. Almal wat my ken weet dat ek zombies mos kwaai like.
Ek hou van die idee dat jy freely kan roam en jy hoef nie nodwendig direk in n mission in te gaan nie. Daar is baie klein missions wat jy kan doen vir ekstra bucks en upgrades. Ek moet sê die coolste ding vir my is die feit dat jy teen geboue kan op hardloop, afspring en glide. Ek like dit. En jy kan tanks commandeer, wat handy is waneer jy hives of compounds moet opfok. Anyway, ek het nog net so 4 ure gespeel, maar op dit wat ek sover ervaar het, rate ek Prototype n 8/10.

Playstaion Home - 11 December 2008

Vir die wat nie weet nie, ek is n avid gamer, en ek het nou net baie goeie nuus gekry!


SONY Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCE) today announced that its highly anticipated PlayStation Home Beta service for PLAYSTATION3 will become available for all PS3 users around the world on December 11th, 2008. Following the successful completion of the closed beta service, PlayStation Home’s open beta service will continue to evolve with new features and functionality.
PlayStation Home is a ground-breaking 3D social gaming community available on PLAYSTATION3 that allows users to interact, communicate and share gaming experiences. By leveraging the power of PLAYSTATION3, PlayStation Home delivers overwhelming visual graphics and rich gaming social experiences only possible on the PLAYSTATION3 platform. Within PlayStation Home, users can create and customize their own unique avatars and explore the virtual community in real time where they can communicate freely through text or voice chat.
PlayStation Home users will not only be able to enjoy variety of entertainment content such as Mini-Games, videos and special events along with their friends, but will also be able to create their own community by using the “Club” feature to create clubs with other PlayStation Home users who share the same interests. PlayStation Home also allows groups of users to launch directly into their favourite online games together from PlayStation Home. PlayStation Home, available as a free download starting December 11th, will launch directly from the PlayStation Home icon on the PlayStation Network column of XMB (XrossMediaBar) on PLAYSTATION3. Users will be able to experience basic features and services of PlayStation Home, free of charge. PlayStation Home will allow open interaction among users, business partners and SCE, and will evolve with additional features including dedicated game spaces, special events and exclusive themed items, to further enrich the entertainment experience on the PLAYSTATION3 platform.
“PlayStation Home is truly a promising network community service on the PlayStation platform, made possible with the powerful combination of PS3's overwhelming computational power and PlayStation Network that covers many countries around the globe,” said Kazuo Hirai, President and Group CEO, SCE. “We are committed to providing PS3 users with exciting gaming experiences with PlayStation Home and together with our partners and users, expand the new world of interactive entertainment as we move forward.”
For users accessing PlayStation Home in the SONY Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) regions, themed virtual environments will be available to explore. Starting with a themed Far Cry 2 space, PlayStation Home will offer game inspired environments that allow people to discuss the specific games, plan strategies and access content and clues that will enhance the gaming experience. The number of gaming environments such as this will regularly increase, with spaces for Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, Warhawk, Motorstorm and SOCOM following very soon. SCEE is working with leading publishers such as: Electronic Arts, UBISOFT, Midway, Sega and ATARI to create engaging environments that will provide users with an on-going gaming experience.
“We are very excited to be bringing PlayStation Home to Europe and the PAL territories, offering users an interactive, social, gaming experience,” said Daniel Hill, Home Service Manager, SCEE. “PlayStation Home is unique to anything else in the gaming world and by partnering with both global and regional gaming and non-gaming brands, we are able to offer exciting and entertaining content that will enhance the PlayStation experience.”
SCEE today also announced the first partnerships with some of the world’s most respected lifestyle brands for the Open Beta. Fashion leader Diesel, contemporary furniture designers Ligne Roset, energy drink Red Bull, film studio Paramount Pictures and video content providers Hexus TV and Eurogamer are the first on board. They will offer resident’s virtual clothing for their avatar, virtual furniture for their PlayStation Home apartments, exclusive video content and a virtual flying challenge: the Red Bull Air Race. Visitors and residents will be able to explore PlayStation Home with their avatar character and, thanks to Diesel, avatars can look great from the start with Diesel offering the latest men’s and women’s designer avatar clothing, with items ranging from free of charge to €1.50. So for those visiting PlayStation Home, they can dress their avatars in the latest jeans and jacket prior to getting out and about.
On the home front, PlayStation Home gives everyone their own apartment to spend time in and entertain friends - who will now be able relax on exclusive Ligne Roset furniture.

It will be possible to personalise furniture by selecting from a wide selection of fabrics and leathers allowing a unique and individual look. This is an opportunity to get acquainted with Ligne Roset’s cutting edge designs created by some of Europe’s most talented designers.
As the very first consumer brand space, Red Bull has created the Red Bull Island where visitors to the Island can interact and take part in many of Red Bull’s unique events. Initially there will be the opportunity to get inside the cockpit of a Red Bull Air Race plane and compete against the PlayStation community. The real-world Red Bull Air Race World Championship has become a global phenomenon in just four years, attracting millions of spectators. Now those spectators can leave the stands, become a pilot and tackle the Red Bull Island course themselves. The Red Bull Island will continue to expand, adding new and exciting content in early 2009.

Random tos

, ,

Righto! Wat n befokte naweek! Eintlik het daar niks besonders gebeur nie, maar dit was lekker. En veral om te sien dat die Springbokke weer goeie rugby speel en dat hulle bietjie pakslae uitgedeel het! Vrydag aand was weer een van daai aande wat jy nie eintlik wou gehad het nie. Lekker geblits en sonder sleutels, probeer ek half 5 Saterdag oggend in my eie huis inbreek! Wat n mission. Nie reg gekom nie! En dit het mos lekker gereen, so ek was vol fokken modder!

Saterdag was maar babalas dag en het net gechill en rugby gekyk. Thanks Mr Fur wat my die heel naweek company gehou het!

Ek wil net vinnig sê dat Call Of Duty 5: World At War n awesome game is, en ek weet nie hoekom sê almal dis tos nie! Gepraat van tos, die nuwe bestseller van die jaar IS DIT NET EK, OF IS ALS TOS? Is ook uit. Dis geskryf deur Griffen en Chopper Charlie. Gaan order hom sommer daar by www.kalahari.net. Ek verwag my copy vandag. En by bestseller bedoel ek nommer 3 op die top 10 na 3 dae. Hy het ou Steve se boek se asem weg geslaan!

“It's hard to wake up
When the shades have been pulled shut
This house is haunted
It's so pathetic
It makes no sense at all.
I'm ripe with things to say
The words rot and fall away.
If a stupid poem could fix this home
I'd read it every day.”

n Bietjie van alles

,

Ek is sonder inspirasie, weet nie wat gaan aan nie. Die afgelope paar dae lei ek aan alles wat nie cool is nie. (Dis daai bitch se skuld, ek vind nou al tot Daughtry se musiek half ok, for fucks sake!) So ek probeer maar myself occupied hou en dit is die rede dat ek al R2200 aan games vir my PS3 spandeer het.
Net n vinnige review. Ek het Dead Space uiteindelik klaar gemaak. Baie cool game. Dis amper soos die movie Event Horizon. Dis baie scary en ek het amper n paar keer in my broek gekak! Die graphics is uitstekend en die controls is so uitgelê dat jy nie sukkel in n kontak situasie nie. Al wat my afgepis het is dat jy sukkel om jou health packs te gebruik waneer jy in n fight is, en dan vrek jy gewoonlik. Hulle wag nie vir jou nie.
Die ander een wat ek gekry het is Fallout 3. Dis n free roaming questerige (Ja, ek weet dis nie n woord nie, maar hy werk so: kwes-te-ri-ge) game waar jy basies vry is om te doen wat jy wil. Ook baie goed gedoen. Ek dink nie jy kan iets verkeerd doen nie, en jy kan kies wat se missions jy wil doen. Soos gewoonlik het ek weer almal opgefok, en ek dink daar is dalk n paar mense wat ek nie moes dood gemaak het nie! Sou dinge dalk net maklikker gemaak het in die long run. Die VATS targeting system is nogal cool, en dit laat my baie dink aan bullet time in The Matrix. Awesome game, al het ek nog net soos 10 ure gespeel.
Die ander een wat ek ook tans mee besig is, is Guitar Hero. Dis eenvoudig net befok! Ek speel nog net op easy, omdat dit my eerste ervaring met die Guitar Hero series is. Die Slayer song is poes moelik. (Wil nie eers weet hoe moelik dit is op n harder difficulty setting nie!) Dis al een wat ek sover nog nie kon klaar maak het nie. Aan die ander kant geniet ek weer die Slipknot song baie. Daar is ou songs en nuwe songs wat jy kan speel, wat dit vir my cool maak. Jy word gechallenge deur ouens soos Tom Morello van Rage Against The Machine en Slash van Guns’n Roses. Ek sal dit vir enige iemand aanbeveel.
Ek gaan ook die naweek bietjie Protea Hotel Kruger Gate toe vir n jaareindfunksie. Dit gan befok wees! Ek hoop net nie almal is nou weer so styf nie. Ek is lus om bietjie fles te vat!
