Another Visit to IKEA

2015-12-06T15:13:00.001+08:00

Today we went to IKEA and darn there is alot of interesting things to see and be inspired by their different designs in home furnishing. We love going there as we get inspired to re-do our rooms and homes by just going there but one thing bad about IKEA is that their furnishing especially their beds are not standard size but they have a standard mattress and comforter to go with.

We went there today to purchase their mattress for our IKEA sofa bed as earlier on we had bought a bed to be place on top of the sofa bed to prevent the sofa bed to get all dirty. We had to find a mattress that is estimated exact fit for the bed as their bed is not according to the standard size of a Double or a Queen size bed which is troublesome. In the end we bought a mattress that is ten size smaller than what it seems, hope it can fit though. Praying hard.

It's raining heavily today and the wind is strong with lighting raging in my area but I am thankful for the rain.

My Experiences with PS4

2015-12-06T14:34:00.002+08:00

Finally I bought my very own Star Wars Battlefront PS4 limited edition. I've searched through many stores in Funan IT Mall to find this and the sales person at all the shops told me that I've arrived 1 week late as the stocks for this edition has been sold out. I was first disappointed but didn't gave up to search for it. My girlfriend told me let's go to the Challenger store as we have not searched there yet and it is located at the last floor of Funan.

Guess what, they do have stock for it and damn I was delighted. Bought one and with a happy smile on my face I quickly went home to install it. When I first opened it up, the first thing was that the smell of new electronic item and this is what I've received:

- A really cool and fascinating artwork PS4 detailed box.

- PS4 Console with Darth Vader Face Decal (500GB)

- A customised colourful black and sturdy controller

- The Battlefront Game

- 4 Free Classic Star Wars Games that can be downloaded through the PlayStation Online Store.

- HDMI Cable

- Power Adapter

- Freebies (12 Months PSN Membership)

- Manuals

Overall Experience:

It was freaking cool with the PS4 Darth Vader Decal Console sitting on my desk but the insides are all the same. No new themes of the PS4 interface that goes with the Star Wars Bundle and also the classic games are fun and entertaining to kill off that few minutes of your boring time. The controller is sturdy with no loose parts and it doesn't feel cheap eventhough I first look at the controller it is as though it is cheaply made.

The initial interface start-up was a breeze and also signing up for new members of their PSN is not troublesome and not many forms to fill in but I only encountered a server error after going through their second last step. Maybe this is due to my internet connection issues.

Gameplay:

Gameplay of my very first game was Star Wars Battlefront was smooth and the installation was not a concern as EA and DICE had made a mini game for me to play while the game installs. The mini game was me controlling Darth Vader and killing all the incoming reinforcements of the Rebels. It was fun and interesting for EA and DICE to place that to keep my boredom out while installing the game.

Interface:

PS4 interface is cool and had not much difference from the last PlayStation but the PSN content was able to keep me glued for a while as they had numerous game tittles and alot of things to download from.

Issues:

The only real problem I had is when I want to register my machine for warranty through their PSN. The error they gave me was that I had a invalid serial number engraved at the bottom of my PS4 and I was astounded. I tried numerous times and still the error occurred. I couldn't figure out what was the issue. I called up the PlayStation Customer Support and they too told me that my Serial Number was invalid and informed me to contact the store I bought from. Thus, I called Challenger and the same old routine, put me on hold and will get back to me after they forward my issues to the store directly as the number I was calling is for general purposes.

They did call me back but end up they said there was nothing they could do and thereafter, I was disappointed but not given up hope yet as I went back to PlayStation Support to try my luck but this time I went through their email system instead of calling. Now hoping for the best.

Least to say, I wasn't disappointed to had purchase my very own PS4 console.

Pocket Wifi

Looking through reviews and tips from other bloggers, today is the day that I've finally booked and ordered our pocket wifi after so many months of planning and forgetting about it. No more worries of finding a hotspot overseas for us. No worries, we'll soon give our opinion on this pocket wifi from a company we rented from when we have finished our upcoming trip.
