How’s My Raya?

I didn’t go back to my kampung at Johor. Well, my grandparents already passed away years ago. There are still relatives back there. As usual, my parents will still going back. For this raya, only my sisters (biological and non-biological) went back along with my parents. So, there, my brother and I were the only people left at the house, like usual. What I did on those days? Frankly speaking, playing games. :D

Need for Speed: Shift for the win!

Need for Speed: Shift for the win!

Yeah, I spent the days mostly by playing Shift on my PS3. It’s a great game, you know. Although graphically speaking, it’s not as great as how EA promised earlier but I consider this as the best Need for Speed series ever. For PS3, jaggedness on the graphics kinda obvious since PS3′s hardware couldn’t do anything about anti-aliasing. Even so, I heard that the graphics for PC version isn’t that great (linkin told me). A little bit review on the game, the main menu interface is pretty much boring although neat. Good gameplay where Tiers and cars are easily unlockable as well as money which means even though you haven’t finish up Tier 2 events, you can even go for Tier 4 events. Of course that those levels require certain Stars to unlock them. There are quite a number of events for Tier 1, 2, 3 and 4. If you finished up those events, there are also Invitational Events and also the last Tier which is NFS World Tour. The sounds are great. I really like the car control. So much like Race Driver GRID. My opinion is based on that I am not a hardcore racing gamer. What makes this game better than GRID? Tunings and customizations. Shift is also noob friendly with those racing lines and selections on difficulties. So, what makes GRID better than Shift? Like I said earlier, the main menu for Shift is suck. GRID also has better car damages and more challenging events. I am not saying Shift is bad at that area but certainly things can be improved. That’s my short review of the game.

Raya at misao's house

At misao's house

Apart from playing games, I had pizza for my lunch on the first day of Raya. Cool, ain’t it? Haha. Pretty much I didn’t go anywhere since most of my friends went back to their homes and kampung. Linkinstreet went to my house on Tuesday however. Well, he had to work on the next day but his housemate wasn’t there. So the house was locked. He had to go all the way to my house as most of his friends weren’t around except me (there’s cloudstrife but he’s in Rawang tho). I went to Lowyat Plaza with my sister on Thursday since I wanted to find additional HDD for my computer. But couldn’t decide to buy anything. So I went there again on Saturday along with ultimaweaponx, yafex, Eccentrical and Stormy. I had a good deal of new 1TB HDD along with HDD docking. Afterward, we all went to misao‘s house except Stormy. For your information, I also bought my first ever mecha that day. From Macross Frontier. I am not a fan of mecha, at all. But this one is exceptional. The decals are very beautiful (just like what Shinn said).

See?

Yeah, Ranka Lee. Bought at Time Machines in BTS. The shopkeeper there was saying that there were three of them; Sheryl Nome, Ranka Lee and Klan Klan versions. When we’re there, only Ranka Lee and Klan Klan left. Someone might have taken Sheryl Nome earlier. We had a good laugh as how my first ever mecha would be this. Even I couldn’t believe I actually buying this thing lol.

I went to Fahimi’s house on Sunday evening. The picture above actually can be considered as the gathering of 4 best friends from school (with additional of Indra’s fiancee there). Fahimi just passed his license for piloting helicopter and waiting for final clarification before he can freely pilot a helicopter. He back home from Australia just before Raya and went straight away to Penang (his kampung). It’s just on Friday that he back again to Bangi. So it’s planned on Sunday that we will be meeting after some time.

Yeah.
