Perfect World Countdown: Reset to 11 Days

Even if this gives me a chance to tick off several items in my To Do List, I was sorely disappointed because now I have to wait over a week before I can do underwater battles like this:

So while we’re wiling away the time, waiting for the endless tick-tocking before closed beta testers can finally soar through perfect skies, let’s delve a little deeper in this much-anticipated game…

COUNTDOWN TO PW CBT!

2 days to go before new game addiction begins!!!

Can’t wait to create a flying swimming mounting gathering character in my likeness that explores medieval China!

Here’s the link.

Here’s what I said about it before.

And though the GE CBT didn’t end till last week, I stopped playing it a week prior to that.

Thinking Rock: Map Out Those Thoughts

After numerous ways of trying to organize buzzing thoughts in my head, from desktop Post-Its to online checklists, finally stumbled upon a more effective way of organizing tasks.

Based on the Getting Things Done methodology of task management of, well, getting things done, Thinking Rock is a simple program that allows you to segregate your projects, simple tasks, and basically any thought that keeps you stagnant and procrastinating.

Eye Cam See Yooouuuu…

That’s actually as small as a Magic 8 Ball. But it foretells the present very very accurately, as long as you’re within range.

Did Palm sell out?

So why is the latest Palm Treo 750 sporting a Windows Mobile OS?

My last experience with Palm is with my now-defunct Zire 71 (which I truly dezired). During those days the brand’s battle was more against HP Pocket PCs, whom I thought didn’t have a very user-friendly interface.

We are family!

A salute to Granado Espada by the wizard, scout, and musketeer of Tarush family. The thing that hooks me most to online RPGs, aside from virtual communities, is getting attached to your character. And since you start out with a family of three in this game, you can imagine how much it can potentially snag avatar-philes.

Gusto MMO Pa? (Part 2)

And this is just the character creation page.

Note the golden glint in the details and reflection on the floor. Can you imagine what graphics the environment must have?

Photomuse.org

Deserving a ranking in Time’s Top 50 sites of 2006, Photomuse acts like an online museum of nostalgic photos.

Gusto MMO Pa? (part 1)

So the local MMO publishers are going head to head to head.

Level-up Games, Inc. attacks with Perfect World. IP E-Games retaliates with upcoming Granado Espada. And LU! fires back with Ragnarok 2. Both of their games set to be launched this week.

I was one of the 6-8 hand-picked individuals (or so i’d like to think I am THAT special ) who was fortunate enough to preview Perfect World on the China server.

One thing that I’m sure I’ll spend hours on is customizing the avatar and creating several characters. Avatar customization in this game is so extensive that you can use a slider for almost everything. And create characters that look almost exactly like you.

Tarush Tech on Beta!

Tarush Tech is going on open beta!

With all the tech coverages, site reviews, and gaming addictions gathered, it’s about time that I holler out my views and hands-on experiences.

Welcome to my first post!

I’m still wrestling with this new blogging thing (though gazillions are already utilizing it). Please bear with the consistent changes. Hopefully I’ll get in the grind enough to achieve the tech blog I’ve been envisioning.
