Back to head gear, Sennheiser HD 380 Pro

It’s been 3 years since I sold my STAX SRS-4040 Signature System and Sennheiser HD600 w/Cardas cable. I’m back again, but am not looking for some fancy sound output, just neutral reproduction is perfectly fine since I had given up fancy audio gears and all my audio gears are Pro gears nowadays.

I am happy with the 380 so far, hopefully it gets even better after running for more hours.

The freaking “No more heroes” X360 still hangs after the patch, damn !

What have you done, feelplus ?!! Is this all you’ve got on the X360 ? I haven’t encountered any problem with the original PS3 version (without the recently released patch) even after playing through it 3 times.

edit: What ! Hang again ! WTF !??

edit: Ok, 60 hours playtime, hang 2 times on the X360 even after the patch. That’s all about it. Going to sell it when it still has a good price.

No More Heroes, X360 and PS3

Completed PS3 version 3 times, completed X360 version 1 time, going for the 2nd round.

Loading time is super long on the X360, even with the game  installed on HDD.

The freaking HDMI port on the X360 died, damn !

Right at the moment I wanted to continue to play No More Heroes, the damn thing failed to work within 6 months and I have just played it a couple of times in these 6 months.

You have got such a shit hardware and I am not touching any MS X360 nor its games from now on. Fuck you, Microsoft!

Got my replacement Elite within a few days, ok, you won me back with your customer service.

No More Heroes, my 2nd X360 game

So far apart and so long after the first one, I finally bought my 2nd X360 game, it is No More Heroes, I bought and played the PS3 version before this one.

Both versions have shitty graphics (not very shitty compared to the Wii), and load time (X360 NMH is being worst, even installed to HDD).

X360 version was a port of the US version (without English subtitles),  PS3 version is a port of the Japanese Wii version. The blood factor got me to buy the X360 version and it marks my 2nd game on the system since Bayonetta.

Valkyria Chronicles 2 PSP

Bought both the UMD and the PSN copies and sunk 71+ hours, still have a lot to do. It is good that there are still so many things to do, just leveling up and change title need quite a lot of time.

Not as straight forward as the previous one, but it is more convenient on the PSP, much easier to just pick up and play for a short while. But the new major characters are not as charming as the old one. Wish Selvaria can wear her old suit.

Update (2010-03-08):  155+ hours already, finished it once, but still have quite a lot to do, may be 30-40 hours more will clear all the missions

Update (2010-03-22): 219+ hours, only one extra mission left, 4 more medals to go, but those are very hard, 100% development on Tank and weapons are just a bit too much

Update (2010-03-27): 232+ hours, almost done with everything, except defeat all aces, 100% tank and weapons development.

Update (2010-04-06): 247+ hours, not much of a progress so far, going from 95% to 100% takes a loooooot of time.

The moment of truth

FreeBSD 8.0 released

Talked on upgrading about 11 months ago, but didn’t have time. It is already 8.0. Hopefully I’ll be able to do it before 2010.

Bayonetta, the game that sold me an X360 Elite

Read from the net that it is much much better than the PS3 version (that I have played around 30 hours), I’ve bought a X360 Elite, finally, because of Bayonetta.

The first impression was the much clearer cut scenes, and much much faster loading (after installing to hard disk). But the game play didn’t  have a large difference in terms of smoothness. X360 version does perform better but not night and day. A 360 for just this game doesn’t seem to be a good choice, yet.

Hopefully the difference will be more later.

update: After 13 hours on X360 version, I’d say both has stuttering moments, sometimes the PS3 feels better, the X360 is overall smoother, but I prefer the Dual Shock 3.

update2: After 75 hours on X360 version, I’d say it is the definitive version ! But PS3 port is still worth it if you don’t have a 360.

update3: This is THE action game of the generation.

update4: Unlocked Jeanne.
