SLS AMG vs. LFA




Both the SLS AMG and the LFA are my favorite dream exotics because of its monstrous performance. Upon every Forza 3 owners obtained the special Stig's Garage Pack as a prize or as a exclusive DLC in the Forza Motorsport 3 Ultimate Collection, in stores now, owners can now take a joyride either the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG and the Lexus LFA. Trust me, I tried both of these, and the results may differ from every car enthusiasts (and video game addicts).

CASE ONE:




First off, I tried the SLS AMG. At first, the engine sound of the SLS AMG's 6.2L V8 engine seems a bit harsh. The rough sound of this engine made me disappointed, but the urge of being a fun-to-drive exotic made me tickled by its desire. Cornering is a bit OK for me, as long as you need the right timing, and the right concentration to turn the Gullwing at any necessary corners. Feel free to ask how does the SLS AMG behaves in both real life and in video games, including Forza 3 and the upcoming Gran Turismo 5.

CASE TWO:



Time to hop inside the LFA! Upon trying the LFA, I can feel Mr. Hiromu Naruse's soul flowing through my hands. The LFA's 1LR-GUE (5.0-litre V10) engine packs a impressive sound and an astonishing performance. There is no way the Lexus LFA is quicker than the SLS AMG! For that, I really love the way the LFA moves. It's like a soul of motion drifting through my overall enthusiasm!

I prefer the Lexus LFA than the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG because the performance, the style, and the quality, its impressive that the LFA is much more of a exotic than the SLS AMG. I'll give a double thumbs up to Toyota Motor Corporation for creating this one-of-a-kind Lexus LFA! As I wondering, the SLS AMG is on sale at CATS Motors since its Philippine debut at the 2010 Philippine International Motor Show. The LFA? Sources said Toyota Motor Philippines and Lexus Manila will bring just one in one color, WHITE, at a hefty price of over 40 million Philippine Pesos.

Thanks to the DLC from Forza 3 Ultimate Collection, everyone can try both of these! I wonder what will I react if both of these appear on GT5...

Bata, Bata, Tayo'y Tumula again...

What just happened in the November 19 episode on TV5's Lokomoko U

- Gags involve in a game of bingo

- Another round of Pinoy Brainless with J.C. and Rainier

- Another episode of Bahaw, Ikalawang Hain that Pinky (Diane Medina) is pregnant?! After so much pictionary guesses and mishaps, Doc (Rainier Castillo) check ups Pinky and he told that Pinky is pregnant.

- Back at the prehistoric drawing board please because there was another episode of B.C. Bisihan, showcasing how the guitar was invented in the prehistoric times.

- Eh? Another "Bata, Bata, Tayo'y Tumula"? Remember last week? The book? Nagtula? Never mind. Another round of Bata, Bata, Tayo't Tumula is happened. The so-called Kinder One students doing the Otso-otso dance, then a batch of so-called Kinder Two students appeared in animal costumes.

1) "Sa aking nanggagaling ang ini-inom ng mga bata. Sino ako?" The audience said "baka", but the answer is "Yaya"?!

2) "Ako ang nag-gigising sa umaga, ako ay pumuputak-putak. Sino ako?" The audience said "manok", but the answer is "Nanay"?!

3) "Ako ay malusog, lagi niyo ako nakikita, ako ay may foot and mouth disease. Sino ako?" They answered "baboy", but the answer is "Kris Aquino"? (JOKE LANG PO!) The Kinder One students said "Lagot" to the one with the pig outfit who said this one, but she said, the teacher did it (???).

4) "Ako ang katulong ni tatay sa pagaaaro sa bukid. Sino ako?" They answered "Kalabaw" but the answer is a tractor?! Wait a minute...

5) "Mabilis ako tumakbo, mahilig ako sa damo. Sino ako?" They answered "Kabayo" but the answer is "Adik"? Eh, wha...?!

Gotta admit it that kindergarten never been this fun in Lokomoko U.

The appliances you love at the gags that make you yell...

The November 19, 2010 episode of Bubble Gang Kin-Z got gags that made them yell. Also, there are sketches involve on some guy at the gym thinks that he's gay, someone pretends to be sick, two men who are stranded on an island for 15 years, three men arguing each other at the beerhouse because of the change, alien invasion, some guy at jail is texting his wife, a doctor with a weird words, and a woman with a love among appliances.

It's "Heaven" with Moymoy Palaboy and Roadfill in another IyoTube segment.

Another week, another Cheche Bureche episode. Before these half sisters go to school, Bureche want a massage at the back. Cheche tries to massage Bureche but the results can be a pain in Bureche's back! LOL

War and Peace (and Harmony) in the Ilumina ending

Ilumina ending

November 19, 2010 marks the end of the fantasy drama from GMA, titled Ilumina, a fantasy depicting twins in an all-out war between witchcraft and sorcery.

In the finale, with the revived Romana (Rhian Ramos) reunited with Krisanta (Jackie Rice), the final battle between good and evil. As the battle rages on, the evil twins Elvira and Melina (Jean Garcia) uses the Ilumina to combine themselves as one because Romana's powers are stronger. With Elvira and Melina combined, darkness flows and Elvira's forces are gaining more strength. Later on, Antonio died on the battle. And now, the final battle; Romana and Krisanta face against the more powerful Elvira. Because of the Ilumina, Elvira's impossible to defeat, but thanks to the combined forces of Romana and Krisanta, they succeeded in defeating Elvira and the forces of good won. As light regains, Romana and Krisanta recovered the Ilumina from Elvira, and Romana used the Ilumina to regain "peace and harmony" among the white and black sorcerers, and reunite as one again.

With the war between good and evil ended, Romana and Krisanta visits their now-stoned father, Romano (Cesar Montano). The reason why Romano's turned to stone is to prevent his death, and with the twins recovered the Ilumina, they succeeded in reviving back their father.

The ending with a hint of "Peace and Harmony" that makes Ilumina a successful fantasy drama. Romana and Krisanta first became rivals and now teamed up to take out the evil forces.

How's that for the Regal comeback?!


Don't call it a Regal Baby, nor a Regal Idol, like what Mother Lily Monteverde said to those fresh Philippine actors and actresses appeared in various Regal Entertainment movies. What you see is the new Buick Regal. Today's Regal is the OEM of the Opel/Vauxhall Insignia in Europe.

It seems the Regal comeback is truly a budget-friendly sedan, beating out the likes of the Acura TSX/Honda Accord Euro, Volkswagen Passat CC, or even the naughty Volvo S60. Thanks to its pricing, fuel economy, and performance (I love the Regal CXL Turbo 6MT variant), the return of the Buick Regal won the 2010-2011 NADAguides Car of the Year!


How's that for a fresh European-American sedan? A true fit for the Regal Babies and Regal Idols from across the North America may find the Regal a suitable value for money.

Thank You Mother Lily, I mean, General Motors for having your Regal Baby, I mean, Regal Idol, I mean, Buick Regal won the NADAguides COTY for 2010-2011!

The new A8's body is a true "Militaires Sans Frontieres"


Since the Audi A8 hit European showrooms since early 2010, this premium flagship sedan became the talk of the town. And yes, this was my all time favorite premium sedan of 2010 since the Hyundai Equus and the Toyota Crown Majesta of last year.

It seems now, the new, third-generation Audi A8 received an award for best body, or in other words, won the Euro Car Body Award during the 12th International Car-Body Benchmarking Conference. 


Congrats to the Ingolstadt automaker for making the new A8 a true corporate mercenary fitted for the next generation of executive warriors from Europe. Hope PGA Cars grab the new A8 to the Philippines soon.

Mahou Sensei Negima ~Mouhitotsu no Sekai~ Theme Song Collection

Mahou Sensei Negima ~Mouhitotsu no Sekai~ Theme Song Collection


Mouhitotsu no Sekai (Japanese for Another World) is a made for DVD episodes included as a limited edition on manga volumes of Mahou Sensei Negima! (日本名: 魔法先生ネギま!), a manga and anime about a young wizard in training (Japanese Harry Potter?!) on an assignment as a teacher to an all-girl class in Mahoragakuen. As far as I know, this was my all-time favorite thanks to Asuna Kagurazaka, Konoka Konoe, Setsuna Sakurazaki, Nodoka Miyazaki, and the rest of the Negima girls from the anime and manga.

OK, no more hassles please. This here is a Theme Song Collection from the made-for-limited-edition DVD. It includes four songs based on the Mouhitotsu no Sekai DVD episodes included on limited-edition Negima comic books sold in Japan. It has songs like Love Drive, Get A Chance!, Magical Twinkle Sky, and Good Vibration!! Those songs are wild and cute to listen to.
