Innovation : A Time-warp into 1998

I am a big fan of any Apple Keynote presentations! Even today Apple's events are coveted as some of the best in the industry interms of innovation and design. Looking back 11 years and you'll see that it's always been part of their culture as a company. Every event is backed with Job's breath-taking speeches and humor. Truly Apple is a company with better designers, innovators, engineers and simply amazing products! Some may argue they aren't the best or genuine when it comes to engineering but that said who really is? I feel it's how they deliver that counts and most companies get that all messed up. 1998 iMac Candy unveiling 2008 Aliminium iMac unveiling Today Mac has reached double digit market share and that has to mean something,right!

The New Sony PS3 *Updated*

There are some things that Sony isn't great at and there are some things that they can't be competed with. One of them is their gaming console the PS3. Th original PS3 was announced on May 2005 that followed a retail launch on Nov 2006. that set a new bench mark to the gaming industry. Now after 3 years Sony announces it next version of the PS3. Unfortunately under the hood its the same great gaming console but its new design is... simply put "SEXY". ( I have a thing for electronics, not my best traits) Why I think that the new PS3 is a buy for all those who don't own one yet: The platform has another 4 years (bare minimum) of market life left. It packs some superb hardware tightly coupled with great software (PSN Home, PSN Store) It's got a blue ray player More and more game publishers have still got a long way to before they've completely resourced the complete processing power of the PS3. Prices are very competitive with other ga...

Ninja Assassin : The Wachowski's are back!

Joel Silver and the Wachowski brothers team up to produce this fast paced action movie! Directed by James McTeigue who was the first assistant director to the Wachowski brothers on Matrix revolutions and Matrix reloaded. I personally am a big fan of the Tokugawa (Edo) period; which I know after watching hours of Anime. The whole idea of a brutally trained warrior wielding deadly weapons has been a rush as far as my taste for entertainment goes. For all you similar aficionados out there, this should be a movie NOT to miss. The trailer looks impressive with great action and some great CGI action and slow-mo sequences! The lead actor, I'm not too familiar with but all I care is that the Wachowski's won't dis-appoint. The plot is almost stereotypical: Master trains kid, kid grows and excels, sent on an immoral mission that he doesn't fulfill, turns against his clan, is hunted to death and yes there is also the love interest in there somewhere. But who cares as long as there...

Wet : Killing, Havoc and Blood trails!!

Turning to be an interesting game, WET is an action packed third person shooter/adventure/Kill-em all entertainer . Why I find the game very interesting is that its plain senseless killing!! Yea some first person shooters like Killzone 2 does quench the thirst but this is a 3rd person shooter. Form the videos : stringing acrobatic moves in slow motion firing S**T loads of lead is just plain simple entertaining! The game does have a few game modes. The regular 3rd person action mode, the Traffic surfing mode and the Kill-em-All carnage mode! The traffic surfing mode is so much like from the Matrix:Reload movie. GAMESPOT: Hands-On Trailer I'm a big Quentin Tarantino fan and Kill:Bill never made it to any console. But if this game racks some great moves, fast story and Tarantino wit ; I can't imagine how many times I would play it!! Again its a little early to tell how it will end-up but from the videos I'm really looking forward to this game! ...
