MHF 2 is available now! Monster Hunter 2 on PSP. Its release date is August 28, 2007 on gamespot.

I am not sure if I can pick it up in a local store in Toronto today. But I will.

There’s never a game which I can keep playing for 180 hours now. I know. It is crazy!

It takes a lot of time to gather all the resources to make your own weapons and armors. Different weapons have different element property which means different damage for the same monsters. Even poison the monsters or put them into sleep. Armors have different skill points. Once you reach levels you will be able to have different techniques such as auto mark monster on the map, more hit points and etc.

The most fun part is the multi player. I have couple friends often come to my place and we play a 3, 4 hunter’s quest for a big dragon. We’ve done some request over 10 times just to gather enough resources to make a anti-dragon bow

I’ve been play Japanese versions only. The technical words may not be correct.

Here’s an amazing video of 4 hunters vs one of latest big bosses.

I just visited Comodo’s Beta Corner today and found that beta 2 was out! Great news! For 4 months I’ve been waiting for Comodo’s amazing free firewall product that supports Windows Vista. And it’s finally almost here.

Being one of the many Comodo firewall fans, I was going to change to Windows XP after I got my laptop back in May. The reason is that Comodo firewall version 2.x doesn’t support Windows Vista. However, lucky for all us, they had an announcement version 3 which supports Vista, 64bit Windows and it’s almost alpha.
Well, that was the waiting history.

The next update will be a RC and I am going to definitely put a RC version on my day-to-day use laptop!

Thumbs up Comodo!

My friend’s PSP is not working no more. The “R” trigger button seems always be pressed by an invisible force;) .

The syndrom is that he can start a game, but cannot quit a game by pressing Home button. Once the back to home screen is shown, there’s no response by press any button except the home key itself.

Also in MHP2 (Monster Hunter Portable 2) , the hunter is always running. (appears just like when R button is pressed)

We think it’s because the PSP is busy responding to the pressed R button.

Thus, the immediate solution I had was to take apart the psp and do so some inspection and cleaning.

It’s not difficult to open the cover at all, there are 4 screws inside the battery compartment, 2 on the back of the psp located the other side. and another one on the side opposite to the UMD door.

Open the front cover was easy too. Same as the plastic right trigger.

I suddenly saw a boost in traffic from 2 major websites of my projects. A simple “site: “command, I found that one website, used to have 3000+ pages indexed in google with pages in supplementary search result after the first result page, has 7000+ indexed normally (out of supplementary results) after almost 6 months seo work.

The other one, used to have 300+ indexed (most of them are in supplementary results), has 483 pages indexed out of supplementary results after constantly building quality links.

Well, the hard work certainly pays!

If you find you self in a situation that an aspx page cannot be accessed from IIS 7 on Windows Vista, read this.

go to Control Panel –> Program –> Turn Windows Features on or off

then expand Internet Information Services –> World Wide Web Services –> Application Development Features

Last, just check what features you need: ASP, ASP.NET, CGI, ISPI and etc.

Here’s a list of most common shortcut keys(hot keys) used on Windows OS or in Windows applications. I use those to improve productivity. And you can image that when my colleges see I do something without using the mouse they ask, how did you do that? Well, these shortcut keys are not secret. You can find it in Windows help or documentations.
