1OBn Dedicated Left4Dead Server

LianYL — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 03:05:39 +0000

Hi guys, I just bought us a L4D dedicated server(@ SG Wargames) for 3 months. You may connect to it at 203.116.41.180:27027.

Once you have connected, go to console and type status. Copy the entire output line and msn it to me. I’ll give you admin status so you can start spawning tanks and dropping buddhas.

As for why I linked the server to A4D’s Steam Group instead of 1OBn’s, it’s because I thought it’d be better for more people to be able to access easily. After all, almost no one on 1OBn steam group plays that much nowadays.

cool guys dont look at explosion

Plants Vs Zombies: JP Dub? (SPOILERS….kinda)

J'onn — Sat, 06 Jun 2009 13:39:50 +0000

So some of you might have already heard of Plants Vs Zombies, and some of you might even have already finished the game and watched the (incredibly cute & catchy) credits song. But how many of you have seen the Japanese dub of the credits?

No, those aren’t subs; they’re the lyrics to the original English version (which I personally prefer, but whatever), and you can see it here:

Apparently composed and sung by the same person who did all the (equally cute and catchy) music for the game, one Ms Laura Shigihara. Anyone got sauce for the OST? XD

EDIT: Seems like Ms Shigihara put up MP3s of both versions of the song on her blog ( http://shigi.wordpress.com/2009/04/02/sunflower/ ), the better to infect all your friends with. Too bad she didn’t upload the rest of the OST, but meh. Love the story about the butter sound effect recording tho XD

GUNDAM HASSHIN!

So this might be old news if you visit Sankaku, but it seems Bandai is building a full scale Gundam (RX-78) statue to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the titular mechs:

And construction is underway:

Now all we need is for them to hurry up and build a Mazinger so we can have a live-action Super Robot Wars XD

I just spent half an hour deleting spam, filtered and unfiltered. Sigh. Anyone still reading this site?

W00t, first post of the new year! XD

Anyways, since the blog seems to have died except for the odd random bit of spam, this might be a good time to show off something I found a while back. See, when Hollywood movies are brought to Japan, they usually get a subtitled version and a dubbed version (sidestepping the whole subs vs dubs debate). Which means that if you watch movies in Japan, you occasionally get stuff like this:

And if youtube/wordpress lags, here’s the direct url:

Happy new year peeps~

Hope it works fine…

Now, tremble in fear at the might of 70’s Disco!

And if that’s not enough, have some "english" lyrics with that!

In case you haven’t realised, the song’s in German XD MOSKAU! MOSKAU! PLEASE RESPECT RETARDIA! WHOOPS, I NEED INSURANCE CARD! OH HO HO HO HO, HEY!

(NINJA POSTSCRIPT: A little after I found the mp3, I stumbled upon an actual english version

and the original german lyrics with translations here

And now you know way more about this song than you ever wanted to XD)
