Philips SHE950 versus the Shure SCL2

-Nintedo Wii- — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 23:46:31 +0800

Hello!

I had recently purchased a Koss Sparkplug earphones that died on me, and I've been looking to buy a new pair of IEMs.

The Shure SCL2's look great, and are probably a safe-fail-proof IEM for the moment, and my brother has the E2C's which are great.

But the Philips SHE9850 caught my eye, and it looks like a great looking IEM, and based on reviews, it seems to be a very tough competitor to the SCL2s.

Now, I want something clear, and with sound isolation and also seperation of the instruments. The bass isn't THHAAT important, and durability could also play a factor.

I'd like to hear some input as to which IEM would be a better choice.

Pearl Forum or Tama Imperialstar?

-Nintedo Wii- — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 18:16:20 +0800

hey, I'm getting a new drumset soon!

I've decided on either the Tama Imperialstar or the Pearl Forum.... since theyre both around my price range
so Pearl Forum is one of the most widely played entry-level kits in the world along with its big-brother the pearl export! but the imperialstar has a bunch of pro-feature such as stagemaster hardware, omni-ball tom mounts,HP30 double-beater bass-pedal and precise bearing edges

The pearl forum has Cymbals included, A startup video, Pearl double-braced hardware, SST heat molding system, Eliminator style bass pedal etc

i can get the forum for RM2100 w/ whole package
and the imperialstar for RM2000 w/ everything except cymbals

which do u think i should get?

Super Paper Mario Wii!

-Nintedo Wii- — Wed, 07 Mar 2007 17:55:31 +0800

Man, i cant wait for this game it looks so cool and fun!!

look at this man i think this'll be a great ame just like the past two games!!!

[From Wikipedia]---

Super Paper Mario is a Platform/role-playing video game currently in development by Intelligent Systems, a division of Nintendo. It was originally set for release on the Nintendo GameCube but is now exclusive to the Wii.

It is similar to the previous two Paper Mario titles and the Super Mario Bros. for the Famicom / Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). The game will combine side-scrolling 2D gameplay with free roaming 3D graphics and to a somewhat lesser extent, RPG elements (unlike the RPG-style gameplay of previous Paper Mario games).[3]

The game is set for an April 9 release in North America.

Gameplay

Super Paper Mario will be the second Paper Mario game to feature side-scrolling platforming gameplay (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door featured three platforming levels for Bowser). Characters are controlled by holding the Wii Remote held sideways like a NES controller. There are eight worlds and a scoring system that doubles as an experience point system.

Pixls give the player new abilities. A Pixl named Tippy allows the player to use the Wii Remote as a pointer, using it to find hidden objects and learn about enemies.

Characters and abilities
Mario, Peach, Bowser, and at least one other character are playable. Luigi is seen in a screenshot and the current box art.

Each playable character has different traits and a character-specific ability. Mario's ability allows the player to view the two-dimensional world from the side, adding a third dimension. This allows Mario to bypass obstacles that appear impassible when viewed in two dimensions. Staying in this mode causes Mario to gradually lose health. Princess Peach can jump the highest and use a parasol to float long distances. Bowser can breathe fire, dealing more damage than a normal attack.

Enemies-

The trailer has shown that staple Mario enemies, such as Goombas, Koopa Troopas, Hammer Bros. and so on, will make a return appearance in the game, although two new enemies, a purple square with a beak, and a blue version of said enemy, have appeared so far.

Videos and screenshots from E3 2006 and the 2006 World Hobby Fair in Tokyo have depicted a number of boss-like characters encountered in the game.

Well yea thats it!! Im probably going to get it...(but first i'll see the reviews tho...)

oh yeah...if u wanna see how it plays...watch this!!!
