  1. The thing is about technology, the more restrictions are imposed, the more people try to circumvent the restrictions. Coming from a third world country where the common people cannot afford to buy original games, I can see a lot of backdoor channels where they can obtain those games at a fraction of the original cost. They used to say that putting region lock on DVD would prevent it from being pirated. Is it still true today? When the PS2 came out, they say it was not possible to pirate it. That may be true at that time, but now? I don't think so. Sometimes, I understand why some people pirate stuffs. But often times, it's too much that you should be ashamed of yourself. Take mobile apps for example. an app cost roughly around $0.99, do you still want to pirate those? And yet, it is rampant here. There is a place here that are full of shops that will jailbreak your apple product and install an unlimited amount of apps for a certain fee. That's just crazy. Do take note that I am not pro-piracy, but I'm just telling the truth of the reality and how it is right now.
  2. HOT DAMN!!!! So they were saving those summons as the ace in their sleeves? Don't know about you guys but I'm really getting excited here.
  3. About that Sasuke thing? Who are you to argue if he arrived together with the 4 Hokage? That's an uber advantage you don't want to ignore. As for the war, yes, it is taking it's time. Seems to me that the only way to keep it interesting is by adding more characters into the war. Works for me.
  4. Well, they have no choice. They need all the help they can get. Besides, Itachi made sure of Sasuke's fate through Naruto. If something needs settling, it would be right after they deal with the end of the world.
  5. That's the whole point of being an anime dad, you get to be bad@ss and make your son look like an amateur. We've seen Ichigo's (bleach) dad become bad@ass, we have yet to see Luffy's (One Piece) dad become bad@ass, heck even Goku's (Dragon Ball) dad, Bardock, is a complete bad@ass. On another subject, look on Naruto's face, classic.

  10. I see, we don't have Costa, cafe Nero or Kenco. We have Nescafe not as a coffee shop but as a coffee you buy off the shelves of the grocery. Some of the famous coffee shops here that I think are available internationally are Starbucks, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, UCC Coffee, Country Style, Dunkin Donut (though mainly known for their donuts, duh), Gloria Jeans, J. Co Donuts, Seattle's Best Coffee and Ya Kun Kaya toast, to name a few. Oh, Krispy Kreme also There are also some lesser known establishments that serve Illy's and Segafredo. Although coffee drinking is still going strong, we see a rise in the demand for Milk Tea, as new Milk Tea establishment seems to pop up pretty often.
  11. Oh, pardon me. UCC is a coffee brand from Japan. They have cafes all over asia so i presumed they are also available in the other side of the world. Apparently this is not the case. Thinking about it, I don’t seem to have seen any UCC when I was in indy. In asia, UCC coffee is available in the shelves of the supermarket.

  24. If you are looking for premium tea, I would suggest Tieguanyin. It claims to have health benefits as well as having a rich flavor. I know very little about tea, but the tea shop in Hong Kong recommends this. I don't usually give in to the sales talk but the gentlemen in the tea shop really convinced me. I don't know how to describe it, but the gentleman was advanced in years, and speaks in an old fashioned way lined with wisdom. The sagacity of his words made me choose it. As for coffee, I'm not an avid coffee drinker. But I have heard that the coffee from UCC tastes very well.
  25. Hmm... maybe it's a culture thing then? MSG is present in a lot of commercialized or processed foods. Which is why some people tend to avoid it. As I said, MSG is the "cheat code" to enhance the flavor of food, which a lot of chefs tends to avoid. Then I guess this can also be an additional reason for my original topic. Sure, it may be present in some foods, but you know the saying that anything in excess is bad for you.
