Run For Your Life

This post is more like a notice rather than an update. Okay, the main thing here is: I was in Kuching during the day to retrieve my new 8GB Kingston pendrive from Sharon which she purchased for only RM48 and also shop for games. I netted myself 6, but in the end I still fail to find Dokapon Kingdom (ENG). There is the JPN version in Crown Plaza but since the ENG version is supposed to be out for purchase already I don't see the point of playing the JPN one. Persona 4 was a wholly different case ... it was a long wait between July 10 and December 9, so duh, I'd play the JPN version first since I really can't wait anymore - Master LL and the others are already playing it before I bought it. FYI, Master LL is one of the most famous gamers on YouTube who upload their gameplay vids. Gotta love the lot for sharing - since some of the games are those I may never get to play anytime soon, e.g. Eternal Sonata or Tales Of Vesperia. Anyways, I have nearly nil time to blog! TAR's coming up in a few minutes even though I've already found out about the results - *SPOILERS* Terence & Sarah are finally out! *SPOILERS END*. And to compensate for no gaming during the day, I will be gaming tonight. And since the photo-uploading will consume a lot of time, I don't think I can make it. Well, for those lazy to read long posts, feel free to take my vacation in Jakarta as a breather since I'd most likely only be able to post short updates since I will use up most, if not all, of the daytime for shopping and having fun in theme parks et cetera. Oh yeah, I hate shopping for clothes, but I never really did specify, yes? Pants/Trousers/Jeans/Shoes are so irritating, but when it comes to shirts, it's easy. Today I got two new shirts, courtesy of Esprit ... well, I never thought I would be buying shirts, but my sister bugged my mother to go to The Spring ... so yeah, at least I ain't buying books this time. Actually I still have quite a lot of books from MPH which are yet to be finished. About the shirts, one is white, the other black with shades of pink (...) and gray. I prefer the former for its sketchy design (me likey!). I also saw a few of those really old farts at Mango. They either do cross-dressing as a hobby or have wives who follow their tastes. IMO women prefer to shop for clothes with other women instead of men. Hmm ... interesting. My mother said they are buying clothes for their mistresses. Possible. A strategist never ignores any possibility unless given evidence that it is impossible to occur. All my sister wanted was a meal at Sushi King really, though I pressed on going to Food & Tea since it's more economical and I am taking a break from Japanese food. Anyway it seems the menu has been updated again with new food. I tried the Egg-Mayo. It has a miniscule amount of roe on it, and I guess that's okay ... too much roe bugs me sometimes. It's quite tasty ... I think it will become another one of my faves. The croquette's been there since opening day, but this is the first time it's actually in stock, so obviously I ordered it. It's quite good, but if only there's ketchup, it would be better. Sadly there's only wasabi and soy sauce available. I tried the Oyako-don (IIRC) which was AWFUL. Do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT even think about trying it. In case you will be going to Sushi King in the future, thank me for being your voluntary lab rat.

What games did I buy? Well ... um ... let's start with the three games I am greatly anticipating to try out:

Resident Evil 4
Monster Lab
Yakuza (yes, I actually played the sequel first)

I saw a bunch of sleazy boys looking at both of the Yakuza games at Crown Plaza. They were like, "What's so great about this? Got tattoo only nia." Oh my, that must be my first line of broken English in my blog. Anyway, I can't stand these lousy low-rate gamers who just diss a game without knowing anything. Okay, even if the game is bad, realistically 
speaking, I doubt those jerks would actually get themselves a tattoo as elaborate as Kazuma's (the box art shows his back's elaborate tattoo). Hmm. The other half of the games I bought are merely for multiplayer purposes:
Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity
Mortal Kombat: Deception
Need For Speed: Most Wanted
Oh my, Most Wanted is my first NFS game, and I rarely play racing games, so pitch in any tips if you can! I just hope my buddy will like it. I have nearly no interest in it ... but whatever, I'll give it a try. These days we've started on One Piece: Grand Adventure again ... thankfully our skills didn't deteriorate much. We played Tournament Mode 3 times ... with me being reigning champion. I still remember the finals!
1st Tourney: Mihawk (Me) VS Shanks (Him)
2nd Tourney: Kuina (Me) VS Usopp (CPU) (My friend's Chopper was beaten by this Usopp)
3rd Tourney: Ace (Me and I won't use the ENG dub's name for Ace) VS Zoro (Him and I won't use Zoro's ENG dub name either)
OP: GA is my favorite anime-based fighting game. It's just awesome. Wait, since when is anything not connected to One Piece ISN'T awesome? According to the recent Oricon charts on manga, the highest rated manga is One Piece, not Naruto. Naruto isn't even in the Top 10. That's reality. Naruto is rubbish. But at the same time, my beloved JJBA isn't on the list either! Well, at least it doesn't mean that it's worse than Naruto. Phew.

p. s. My flight has been altered from the 20th to the 21st!
