I must have missed entering a cinema for the past couple of years since I only caught whiff of the upcoming Angelina Jolie film, Maleficent. If the name sounds familiar, Maleficent is Mistress of All Evil from the 1959 Disney animated film, Sleeping Beauty. Yup, the one with the horns. Disney Interactive...

Back in the day when I used to play MTG,...
I got to hand it to Blizzard, they really did a banged-up job with Reaper of Souls. The inclusion of Loot 2.0, Adventure Mode and Nephalem Rifts, along with the increased level cap has resulted in me investing more hours to date in Diablo III than Torchlight II (which I previously rated higher than the...
Do you own a smart watch? I consider my Garmin FR10 to be a smart watch, considering that it does a bang up job calculating the distance, speed and time during my runs and it even syncs with an online service (Garmin Connect) when it is connected to my Mac. Smart as it is, would []

Last Sundays run at Bukit Jalil, the Brooks Half Marathon 2014 almost got cancelled by the organizers due to the haze. Coming from Klang (which fared poorer on the air quality index), Ive been chomping at the bit for a good run since the haze has resulted in me staying indoors most of the...
