Christmas !
Nothing says Christmas like Coca-Cola advertising. And nothing makes advertising better like Inception music slapped on top of it..

Addiction

Played this last night for the first time in a long time.
The new PS3 motion move controller is just what i wanted. Neat. Clean. Move.
Sony's motion controlled gaming setup, PlayStation Move, has arrived in stores, and if you believe the hype, it's everything we wanted the Wii to be...and more. PlayStation Move's 1:1 controller tracking is just as precise as the Wii with its MotionPlus accessory, but also adds body tracking into the mix thanks to the PlayStation Eye camera. The starter bundle, which includes the PlayStation Eye camera, a single Move controller, and the Sports Champions game is available for INR 3650.
Bad part
The controllers are stuck with built-in, non-user replaceable lithium-ion batteries, and there's no automatic sleep mode after a period of inactivity, so you need to manually switch the controllers off when you're not using them. Anyone who's ever had a group of people over to play Wii or peripheral-based games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band will know that you always need a stack of AA batteries on hand to keep the action happening. Sony's choice of built-in batteries means you'll need to make sure everything is charged ahead of time, otherwise you'll have players out of action, waiting for controllers to charge over a USB cable.
The Verdict
At this stage, PlayStation Move is likely a hard sell for any gamers on a budget. The hardware is fantastic, and Sports Champions is a great launch title, but there's nothing truly revolutionary so far...if you've owned or played a Wii extensively, that is.
Personally, I wanted this add-on in my gaming family, n here I am. Looking for a active lazy weekend, where I'd laze around n do nothing except playing with the active games :)

CWG

The CommonWealth Games, Delhi.
Granted we had corruption, missed deadlines, shoddy workmanship, lack of vision & leadership, etc., etc. The TV Media have done their best in highlighting the negativity. Barkha, Rajdeep, Arnab, etc. are falling over each other in showing dirty toilets, collapsed walkways, water logging, and caustic comments by Fennel, Hooper and Co. day in and day out. Is that all they can do ? Do their TRPs matter more than anything else ? Come on guys, there is the positive side too. Completely missing from the TV are the highlighting achievements of past performers, discussions on prospects of likely medal winners, a review of the completed stadia, showcasing of India's multifaceted diversity, etc. etc.
Why haven't we been shown these pictures earlier ?
Here's wishing the games every success, despite the gloom spread by Mani Shanker Ayiar......
This is amazing…Its so splendid.
Who says we can’t host CWG successfully?????? Have a look at this….

What a Fucking place!

"Fucking" is the name of a town in Austria.
Much to the dismay of the town's 104 residents, this unfortunate name has led to numerous acts of vandalism from tourists. Visitors from the English-speaking world have been stealing road signs.
Though the town has had its name for centuries, it wasn't until British and American troops arrived to the area in WWII that the town began to receive notoriety. Back it the 1940s locals were amused by foreigners taking pictures by signs with the town's name. Now they're getting pretty sick of it.
According to one Austrian tourist: "The Germans all want to see Mozart's house in Salzburg. The Americans want to see where The Sound Of Music was filmed. The Japanese want Hitler's birthplace in Braunau. But for the British, it's all about Fucking."
