Going back to my roots

Going back to my roots yeaaaaah, back to my roots, thatahatahathaaa..

So these past few days I have been checking out the C++ syntax. Due to past experiences with several languages I’ve gotten a pretty decent idea of what they are talking about. I’m looking forward to learning more about this programming language. If anyone has got some pretty decent articles concerning this language please send them to me, I can always use decent reference material.

I really haven’t got enough experience yet to call it a better language then the other ones I’ve got to know over the years:

  • C#
  • Visual Basic 6 / .net
  • Java
  • Pascal (the shame)
  • Basic (a long long time ago, in a galaxy far far away)

Yet I am confident that it is truely a very powerful program language.

In other news, tonight at 6 pm local time apple will introduce a sh*tload of new products upon the world and will go into deeper detail about the features of the new leopard Macos. I’m very curious about the OS itself, I couldn’t care less about the other rumorred gadgets (itv, iphone, ibrator,…).

And I am STILL waiting for my Wii! Come on Nintendo, what’s keeping you?

Wii want to play!

So I have made an order for a Wii last week. I hope it arrives soon because wii want to play.

Did I mention I am very bad at waiting?

Am I the only one who wonders if apple helped with the design? :D

Let’s sum up what makes this console a good buy:

  • Innovative controller, which depends on movement besides button smashing
  • Nintendo has always had a decent line when it comes to games (despite the kiddy image which Nintendo has had for years now. Don’t people realise that games like Resident evil, Medal of Honour, etc arent kid friendly)
  • It looks good ;)
  • Did I mention it looks good?
  • The Wii has the ability to surf the web, send messages to friends etcetera. Multiplayer games should be on their way. (The Gamecube also had the abilty to network/make a connection to the internet)
  • Nintendo is fun for family and friends
  • Women will like this machine!
  • Real men will adore this machine…
  • You have the ability to buy nintendo’s best retro games and play them all over again.
  • An SD Card slot to expand storage space
  • The price
  • Did I mention it looks good?

And the bad:

  • No superduper graphics (but still up to three times better compared to the gamecube)
  • A 512MB built in flash disk instead of a hard drive (Though it is expandle to 2.5 GB with a 2 GB SD card)
  • No DVD/CD-playback (But who hasn’t got a decent dvd-player nowadays)
  • The controllers will use up a surplus amount of batteries, though a rechargable system is about to arrive)
  • It doesn’t look like the one on the right (thank god it doesn’t look like the one on the left)
  • Most Classic games require a special classic or gamecube controller
  • Classic games aren’t free :(

I guess Wii’ll have to keep on waiting till I get a phone call that my Wii has arrived. :(
