New Asian Xbox 360 Bundle


Just found news on a new Asian Halo 3 Xbox 360 bundle:

http://asia.cnet.com/crave/2008/01/31/microsoft-ushers-in-cny-with-festive-xbox-bundle/

"Microsoft is back teasing gamers with yet another festive Xbox 360 promotion. This time round, the Redmond company is offering its 20GB Xbox 360 Pro console, two wireless controllers, hot-selling Halo 3 and one-month Xbox Live gold subscription all for S$669 (US$440.13). Compared to the previous S$649 (US$426.97) Xmas Vinva Pinta and Forza Motorsport 2 bundle, this Chinese New Year package offers even better bang-for-the-buck with the controllers and game alone worth a total of S$226.70 (US$149.14).

If you have been holding back a purchase so far, this is probably a good opportunity to give the HD console a second thought. Afterall, you will certainly need some form of entertainment to keep your guests (especially the restless little ones) occupied during the festive holidays. And just in case you have this burning question back in your mind, the consoles are neither auspiciously dressed in tasty mandarin orange nor feminine red packet hues. Yup, too bad!

The above-mentioned pricing is meant for the Singapore market. Pricings for Hong Kong and Taiwan are HK$3,199 and NT$13,680, respectively. "

Gamers based in the Philippines: How to get in Xbox Live

NOTE: This article has recently been updated (as of August 12, 2006). Singapore no longer lets you input '00000' as your zip code. Please see below for alternate zip codes. So you're a Filipino living in the Philippines with a brand-spanking new Xbox 360. You've heard about all the wonderful stories on Xbox Live. You happen to have a pretty good broadband connection. One day, you try out the Xbox Live sign-up options on your 360, and you find out to your dismay that your country is NOT listed. What do you do? Now, you can probably enjoy your 360 without live at all, but I have to tell you: YOU ARE MISSING OUT. As Peter Moore said in the recent MS Press Conference: "Having your 360 connected to Xbox Live is as vital as having your computer connected to the Internet". He is so damned right. I've been playing on Xbox Live for almost a year now (both on my original Xbox and the Xbox 360). Essentially I found out all of this with a little bit of research, a lit...

Lost Odyssey Theme Song - "What You Are" by Sheena Easton

I've uploaded the theme song for Lost Odyssey in YouTube. Check out the video below: At first, I wasn't so into the song but when I heard it in full it grows on you. The song is actually quite beautiful. It was sung by Sheena Easton. With the lyrics from Hironobu Sakaguchi and the composition by Nobuo Uematsu. Very moving song, specially once you understand the lyrics. Below are the lyrics for the song "What You Are" by Sheena Easton When you touch me It feels just like a dream With the warmth that's in your eyes When you look at me I hear your voice beside me It whispers to me I can't hide how it makes me feel The shyness you see I may never Understand how deep it goes But I know how I feel What I hold deep in my heart There's just no way to stop this It's hopeless but true I feel this love More than anything So what more can I do You know I thought I would be much stronger than I am But then I feel the boldness that's inside my heart Just melt aw...

Tips for new Lost Odyssey players: How to beat Grilgan and Bogimoray

Seeing that many people are already getting the game, some might be having trouble with the first and second real boss (the first machine you face doesn't really 'count' as a boss): To the ones who have made it through, post your best tips for those two bosses here. My first, major tip: Don't power-level or grind. You'll ruin the game for yourself and there's no strategy there....you won't learn how to play the game. Other tips: 1. Water kills Fire, Fire kills Wind, Wind kills Earth, Earth kills Water. I forgot the element of the griffin boss....use the appropriate magic against it. 2. For Grilgan, be aggressive with the HEALING. Play defensively and protect your characters as much as you can. 3. If you have a flare bomb, ground bomb or any other type of bomb, use it now. Don't worry, you'll find others in the game. 4. If you have an instant heal potion of some kind, use it. Again, don't worry, you'll get more later in the game. 5. For Bogim...
