Damn! I got a bad feedback from a client. But maybe its my fault, I didn’t went to their level of design. For me all my works are of professional value, but to my client its “cartoonish”. The first template took me more or less a week to prepare, design and prep for coding, And all that my client can say that its “cartoonish”. I’m abit insulted but its my error, I didn’t go to their level of understanding.
The 2nd template I passed was one of the cleaniest design I’ve made, but theres no feedback on that. I now learned that me and them are different. Ive never got problems with my past clients because they like the things I design. Theres a difference being a freelance web designer from a corporate web designer.
Anyways Im okey with their opinion, these won’t hold me down. I’ll gonna rise up and crash that belief that Im just a nobody.

Need for Speed : Most Wanted
The 9th release from the Need for Speed series. I got the Black Edition for PC giving 10 new cars, 1 new race and the other I forgot *tsk*. Heres some description on the game:
Wake up to the smell of burnt
asphalt as the thrill of illicit street racing permeates the air. From the makers of the hit Need for Speed : Underground series, Need for Speed : Most Wanted challenges players to become the most notorious and elusive street racer.
Combining illicit street racing and tuner customization with the intensity of strategic police pursuit that surpasses any Hollywood-style chase scene, Need for Speed Most Wanted will be on every gamer’s ‘must-have’ list this holiday season. Out-race rivals, evade cops and exploit hundreds of miles of open road as gamers make their way up the Blacklist.
To become the most wanted racer, players must build up their street cred and Rap Sheet with gripping, white knuckle, head-to-head races with the top drivers on the streets, as well as pull daring, evasive moves to out-run and out-fox the cops that patrol the open road. Players can manage their heat or utilize a number of strategic tactics to keep the cops off their tails as they leave their rivals behind to suck their exhaust fumes. Need for Speed Most Wanted also features a variety of the hottest cars that range from tuners to super cars. You can customize your ride to race against any class of vehicles. The streets are your playground.
Ive played and finished the game, I might say its a little complicated than Need for Speed : Underground. But it added more adrenaline rush in the gameplay. Its more strategic that its Need for Speed : Underground and the storyline surfaces more than just the race. And I love the cars!!
Rating – 8/10
Need for Speed : Carbon
The game is the 10th installment of EA games to the Need For Speed series. I got the Collector’s Edition for PC which gives me 3 new cars and some other stuff hehehe. Heres some information about the game:
Background:

What starts in the city is settled in the canyons as Need for Speed Carbon immerses you into the world’s most dangerous and adrenaline-filled form of street racing.

Need for Speed Carbon delivers the next generation of customization giving you the power to design and tweak your crew’s cars in every way using the ground-breaking new Autosculpt technology. Represent your car class, your crew, and your turf in Need for Speed Carbon, the next revolution in racing games.Features:

All-new Canyon Duel and Drift race modes are the ultimate test of skill and nerve, where one wrong turn could cost you more than the race.

Designate any member of your crew as a wingman and trigger his special skill to knock out your rivals. Over 50 Real-World Licensed Cars [confirm # is accurate]: Every car is tuneable so you can customize their look and performance to suit your crew.
All I can say with this game is that its a combination of Need for Speed : Underground and Need for Speed : Carbon. Though I have only played 5% of the game, I’m hooked with the game. Strategy and adrenaline put together perfectly in the game. I love the cars and the mods!!!.

Devil May Cry 3
WOW!! I just wish I could have played the part1 and 2 of this game, Im gonna kick ass if that happens. I got hold of the Devil May Cry 3 : Special Edition for PC, and when I started playing it one day passed me by. Heres the info of the game:
Dante’s past is now revealed as Devil May Cry returns to its
roots. Master Dante’s multiple fighting styles while battling never-before-seen demons and new characters as you fight your way towards a brutal confrontation with Dante’s mysterious twin brother, Vergil.
- Choose Dante’s fighting style:
Maximize the impact of close-up blade attacks, or blow enemies away from a distance.- Huge arsenal of weapons: Handguns, shotguns, swords, and more.
- A horde of demonic enemies:
More ferocious than ever – with powerful weapons and abilities to transform and fly.
I think you can play/use Virgil in this edition, though I havent yet unlock/figure it out. The only problem for me is the control settings when using a keyboard but it didnt stop me from playing the for 1 whole day. I might gonna use my PS2 controller (yes you can use a PS2 controller in your pc you just need a special hardware for it which cost me around Php 450).
