Just saw a friend share this — it’s episode one. A high-def version will be available for download soon, and the author keeps updating it. These cute characters look familiar… heh, now I remember — the official site once ran a series of “When We Were Young” comics. I really like all of them, and the 3D treatment looks great. This animation takes us right back to when WOW was young~
This afternoon halley summoned me over for a few rounds of Red Alert 3, and my craving for StarCraft 2 shot straight through the roof… Finally there’s some solid word: Q2 next year. Well, sooner than I can mentally handle, hehe.
On the 4th of this month, gskinner.com released version 2 of GTween. This version is more compact (3.5k) than the previous one, runs more efficiently, and introduces a new plugin model for greater ...

Flash SwitcherLets Firefox switch between different versions of the Flashplayer plugin, for compatibility debugging. This extension allows you to easily switch from one flash player plugin version to another, or also to remove or save the currently installed plugin (maybe for testing the express install). Once installed you will find the “flash switcher” icon in the Firefox statusbar at bottom right (and also in the Tools Firefox menu). Click on it and a list of available options will appear.

During the long wait for Diablo 3, we’re no longer lonely — because now we have Torchlight. Here’s some info (download links at the bottom):
The new site went into design and development on July 27 this year, mostly in my spare time. And now the construction is finally done — it’s shipped. http://www.mousebomb.org/ the homepage now redirects to the new version — go take a look. The new version really did drag on. Since the 2007 version I hadn’t updated my personal site for ages. In fact, before building this one I designed two other versions — one during Spring Festival 2008, and another in late September 2008. One of them was going to have a star-travel theme. On the first visit a login box would pop up saying “Commander, welcome back” (just like Tiberium Wars). Once inside, you’d see a galaxy where visitors piloted a spaceship to explore planets, could send out cosmic radio waves to chat, and so on.
I happened to come across the CNC4 promotional animation — I wonder if it’ll be the intro for next year’s full release?
A few days ago I watched the movie 9 — mediocre plot, but grand visuals — and the images of those future robots are still vivid in my mind. Yesterday, the big Flash game Machinarium entered my gaming journey.
疯狂约会美丽都 Les triplettes de Belleville, also known as The Triplets of Belleville. Watched it today. The first 5 minutes made me decide this was a unique and great piece of animation. So I paused it, hurriedly ate my meal, very reverently closed all my other programs, and gave Les triplettes de Belleville my undivided attention.

Ten years to sharpen a single sword — guarantee the quality, not the quantity. After watching Jiaokeli’s See Through, I fell unusually in love with it. (download page portal) One person spent three and a half years pouring himself into creating a personal short film, giving up a stable job and material comfort, all for a little over 16 minutes of animation. What conviction sustained him through it? How could it not be a masterpiece?
My Norton is about to expire, and MS just released MSE the day before yesterday, so I quickly gave it a try. Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) can protect computers running Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7 against viruses, spyware, rootkits, and Trojans. The Microsoft Security Essentials software itself cannot fend off all web threats, but when used with the IE8 browser and a fully updated Windows operating system, it will provide users with a complete security solution.
