Aftermath of the IT Show 2008

Pretty late update for the aftermath of the IT Show, because I don't want to just suddenly blast a chunk of whatnots into the IT Show post. Therefore i decided to split it up.

We decided to have some lunch after the nifty IT expedition and guess what, we ended up in Burger King. Not the healthiest choice anyone could make, but majority wins. Besides, I'm bulking so it doesn't really matter. LOL.

Meal of Dirty bulking.

My lunch combo meal. Swiss mushroom BK burger, onion rings, barley(glorified sugar) and Hershey's sundae pie. I requested the fries to be changed, coke to barley and an additional sundae pie. This is the way to dirty bulk. David, Sicko and Chingy also ordered about the same thing, only BK(not burger king) ordered a large barley. WTF is a ultra speed metabolismic black hole like him just drinking and not eating ? Soon after Hosea came along and joined in with us, as in the chat and not eating LOL.

Close up on the onion rings

The onion rings are pretty much standardized. I asked it to be changed instead of the regular fries. Greasy thin pieces of fried potato ain't cutting it for me already. I prefer onion rings over them anyday.

The pie of sin.

This pie was indeed pretty sinful for its size. The only thing i remember that was pretty much the main killer when i saw the nutritional facts for this pie was that it as an astounding amount of fats, carbs(sugar) and the worst case of all, it has 2g of TRANS FAT. "Nevermind la, dirty bulk ma. Nevermind hor, just die only"

Upon inspection when i ravaged the pretty photoshopped box, the sight was pretty ghastly. It looks like a mess as if the toppings were just dumped onto a slab of pie. Urgh. So much for the pretty showcase of the pie on the box. So typical shit. Taste wise it wasn't too bad. Standard layered mix of chocolate and vanilla mousse on a biscuit base with some chocolate chips and whipped cream on top. With such commercial pies comes a hard hitting sweet shot/sugar rush. It was very very sweet. Due to the heavy amounts of sugar, it makes your mouth sticky and dry, making you want to gulp down some liquid to relinquish one's self from such shitty feeling. I had barley, which has a fair amount of sugar as well, nice self pwnage. David's recommendation. LOL. Not say not nice la, but too sweet for my taste.

Total damage : $8.30

After beasting the meal, we all decided to head down to Bugis, where the King of all Arcades in Singapore resides. Surprisingly no one was at the GGXX:AC machine. Very weird as its a sunday and we expected a horde of pros to beast each other out. Looks like only us was there to beast each other. I tried looking for the MBR:AC machine but to no avail. Seems like they removed the machine, bastards.

Usual hangout at this arcade cabinets.

So lonely that no one is playing them but us.

Outrun upgrades.

I have no idea what version of Outrun this was, but it was a pretty new game that attracted a small crowd. It is like a glorified version of the Outrun arcade game, just that it is jacked up by the usage of a huge ass LCD screen and a mini ferrari/lambo car that you can drive it. It would shake and swivel as you drive along the track. Pretty cool shit. The only thing that turned us off was that there was a video camera that takes a shot at your face and displays it at the top of the panels that shows the audience how you look like when you play. Pretty retarded imho. That is the only flaw that turned David and me off. We wanted to try the game if only the cam would just FO. LOL.

Otomedius.

New game alert. Otomedius is a loli 2d/3d horizontal plane hell-bullet shooter with a twist. It has the mechanics that enables a user to save your character to a card so that you could unlock certain gameplay modes and maybe enables you to upgrade your own character. The usual tactic to leech more cash outta your wallets. The overall graphics is pretty nifty, more of a cute shooter game that is pretty action packed. And did i mention that the sick Japanese actually incorporated touch screen functions to the game ? David and I learnt it the hard way. We inserted 2 token, pressed start a zillion times, game won't start. Why ? Because we had to touch the damn LCD screen to start the game. Pwned again. LOL. Another nifty aspect of the game we noticed from people playing the game that day was the main character(blue haired loli that resembles Konata in only one way) has a special that lets you target certain area of the screens that you touch on the screen. Gay shit. Initial play was great for us, looking forward to playing this game in future.

After raiding the arcade, time to eat dinner ! Hosea recommended Wok Kok Char Chan Teng. What a pain to type. LOL.

Fancy menu.

As usual, we took forever to place our orders as we flipped through the various dishes, drinks and desserts. I must say, they got a large variety of desserts and drinks. Not to mention the fancy names they can come up with for them. We then proceeded to order some fancy stuff for a change. Sorry for the wrong naming of the dish if any, i kinda forgot their names LOL.

Fancy stuff.

David ordered HK Handmade Ramen with beef and vegetables.

Sicko ordered Crispy noodles with spicy/sour chicken.

I ordered Hor fun with beef and vegetables and a Mocha Lava drink.

Chingy ordered Honey Chicken Ramen ?? and Peppermint World

Nothing better than buddies hanging out the whole day.

Total damage per person: Roughly $14 including service charge and GST.

Had a wonderful day. IT Show, BK, arcades, HK food. Thanks guys. Love you all.
