Finally, we get to know that SPM 2008 results will be released on 12th of March, which is next Thursday. After the long waiting, I'm going to see how many subjects that I've failed in. Can't wait for that day to arrive as the waiting is killing me now.
To make the time "fly" faster, I've been concentrating on gaming(again), but not as excessive as last time, of course. Far Cry 2, the next-generation FPS PC game, is very tiring to play for long hours as compared to Maple Story. However, I've just finished this game recently, and I'm not feeling to keep on playing L4D or my ears will burst from gunfire. I came up with an idea: Youtube-ing.
If you're living in Malaysia I'm sure that you're familiar with this local telecommunications company called TMNUT, with their broadband serviced named SCREAMYX, offering "broadband" speeds as fast as a dial-up connection(for some people, or take it as an exaggeration. No offence!). Hooray!
Since it's that slow, buffering Youtube is a helluva task to carry out. A one-minute clip might take you more than 3 minutes before you can stream it smoothly. Given this situation, you can open the clip first, pause it, do something useful in your life while waiting for it to buffer completely, before watching it.
Suddenly I have the urge to watch MGS3 cutscenes to revise my understanding towards the story of the game. The best of all, it's the game's ending. I loved the ending the moment I watched it. This is one of the best endings, if not the best, for a game. Listening to the soundtrack while watching the movie just makes the ending feels so...dramatic. I havn't play MGS4 yet but in fact, I think MGS3 will be the best game in terms of storyline in the MGS series.
Here's the movie clip. You may watch it if you like it. Enjoy!
It's touching, well, at least for me, since I get touched rather easily. However, finished gameplay is recommended for the best experience ;p. Did you learn anything from this movie? Well let me share mine. I learnt that history can be altered by politics or some other factors. For example, The Boss should be remembered as a hero for her sacrifice but she was remembered as a war criminal in history instead due to the "special arrangements" made by the government.
I know this is fictional, but that doesn't eliminate the possibilities of this occurence in our world. I mean, imagine, what if the texts we read in our History textbooks aren't the actual events or facts but is altered instead? Who knows if we had been given false informations regarding history all these years without realising the truth? Well, only God knows..
Lastly, I would like to end my post with this famous Chinese idiom:
尽信书不如无书
