Just caught the first episode of "Reaper". Quite intriguing. Now off to grab the rest of the first season.
I recommend it for those of you who are into the horror / superhero thing with a healthy dose of humour.

^^ 100% true. Windows Mobile blows every other platform outta the water when it comes to third party apps and support.
-
From personal experience I can testify that Windows Mobile phones display below average signal strength and call performance. This is the only reason I am inclined towards the E90 and iPhone. Otherwise it would have been the Tytn II for me too.
-
been using the tytn ii for a few days now - pretty solid wm6 phone (no other phone has better specs... for now). adjusting to the fact that it's a PDAphone (not a smartphone) BUT even then it's a all-round device that i'd happily carry in my pocket (it weighs 190gms!).

How much did it run you for? I'm getting a new phone next weekend. Trying to decide between the Nokia E90 and the Apple iPhone.
32k + 4gb mem card (2500) + screen guard (400) - yes, it's a lil steep, but it *can* replace the need to carry along a laptop...

The price is good. I got my K-Jam a couple of years back with a 2GB card for about INR 32K. So, its par for Windows Mobile phones.
But I'm seriously digging the Nokia E90, even more so since signal quality is of prime importance to me.
-
^^ I'm sure that wasn't the reason. They charged me the full amount. Its just the customs invoice that listed the price at 20GBP.

^^ People weren't willing to tolerate a delay in Bioshock and literally ruined MA's month. I shudder to think of the uproar that a GTA IV delay will cause.
-
^^ how to do that ?
Send an email to customer support asking them to do so.
Funnily enough, they did it for my Bioshock Collector's Edition order without even my asking them to. Invoiced it for 20GBP only.
-
pre-ordering the Special Edition from GAME
Any customs charges?
Depends on your luck. You can ask GAME to underinvoice the shipment.
-
There could be a slight delay in the game's release in India as was evidenced by Bioshock. (Please direct your hate at Take 2).
I'm playing it safe and am pre-ordering the Special Edition from GAME. So it should reach me within a week of official release.

Guys,Just wanted to know how much would a HDMI cable(good brand) cost in the market....Can someone suggest me a good brand......
Brands dont matter since HDMI is digital. As long as the cable isn't broken it will be fine. Order one from PlayAsia. It costs about US$10 there.

Edit:
I remember this scene now. OMG !!! Am I glad they didnt go with this for the 2007 movie. :roflroll2:
-
The movie is good because of its special effects and because the Transformers look and feel like giant robots. Also, the half decent storyline adaption did help along with the "human" touch of Bumblebee. When I saw the flick in the theatre, I swear people were clapping and cheering when Megan Fox strapped Bumblebee to the back of the tow truck and reversed into the fight.
This flick is a keeper IMO and certainly one of Michale Bay's finest works (not saying much, I know, but hey, I actually liked "The Island").

i dont know what i'm gonna do when my 360 dies (yes, i said 'when', not 'if').....any idea how much it costs at local shops to repair RRODs?
Anywhere from INR 2K-5K.

Collector's Edition for me. I need that lockbox for my PS3 fund.

-
^^ To be honest, I liked the 2007 version of Megatron. The facial features suited his evil disposition a lot better than the cartoon version.
-
Just watched the old classic "Bullit" starring Steve McQueen.
What an amazing movie. No frills, no background music, just stoic performances. And the car chase sequence and on-foot chase at the airport are absolutely fantastic. Even more so when you realize thatMcQueen did all the stunts himself. :shock3:
All in all, a welcome escape back to the days of classic Hollywood movie making (even if the director was British).

After months of delay (and a whole lot of tears) it gives me immense – and I do mean immense – pleasure to inform you that Grand Theft Auto IV will be releasing for both the Xbox360 and the PS3 on April 29.
"We are so excited to be releasing Grand Theft Auto IV," said Sam Houser, Founder and Executive Producer of Rockstar Games. "We've pushed ourselves very hard to make something incredible and hope the game sets a new benchmark for interactive entertainment."
I really don’t remember when I was this happy last.

One Funny Comment was, "That's when i am going to buy a PS3"
akS !
Thats not unusual. It will be a system seller for sure, just like Chains of Olympus will shift PSPs off the shelves.
-
^^ Difference only in Gameplay....and maybe the new co-op and MP. In terms of gfx/animation, I'm not having any high hopes ! I won't be surprised if Saints Row 2 has better gfx than GTA 4 !
Not to forget that Mafia II is already looking better than GTA IV

A snippet from the review of GTA SA :
Does the framerate still stutter? Is pop-in and draw distance still an issue? Are there any collision quandaries or other graphics-related bugs? Are the sound effects still tame by other action game standards? Does the AI ever have stupid moments or not perform the way you'd want it to?To be honest, the answer to all those questions is a definite yes. But an even better question to ask (and one that has a lot more direct impact) is, "Do any of the issues explored above really detract from the overall experience?" In a word: No.
GTA IV won't be any different

Thats really sad. I was looking forward to something different.
-
Very tasty screenies. But it still looks like a spiffied up version of Saints Row with a wider colour palette.
Now you can go on about how GTA is not about the gfx, and I sure as hell am not gonna let substandard textures keep me apart from this instalment, but the fact remains that the game is behind the curve in character modelling and texture work. I can only keep my fingers crossed that the animation has improved drastically over the previous versions of the game.

Holi has come early for Prasabhu this year.

You have a ONE year warranty for hardware failure and a THREE year warranty only for the RRoD.
