Heroes of Newearth (HON)


Heroes of newerth is one of my favorite game to play. well is the only game i play now. yes i can been a geek at times.. wait. i think i am a geek. i love computer and and games. well HON is a multiplayer strategy coop online games. there is 3 v 3 and 5 v 5. the objective of this game to destroy the opponents base. to alot of girls its just a waste of time. but to a guy , generally me it helps me relax as you kill your opponent . and games generally helps us save money and stay at home. altho it is a waste of time but its a good way to waste time. haha.. atleast we are not running around doing bad stuff like drugs ect..

what is creative about HON? well ... there is more then 30 character in hon which you can choose from with all different sets of skills and skins. you can see how they create the animation and model the characters its amazing .other then that, in a way it helps us on our reflex to make judgments on the slightest moment when you are in the game.

what inspire me in heroes of newerth is part of my subject which i am taking now . multimedia. we are learning animation and abit of game design. to learn it we have to see it and use it. if we dont see how the animation movement and the modeling of the character is in the game or in the movies, how are we soppose to imitate it? 

Platos cave








i understand that the plato's cave is where they keep prisoners that was chained. They were unable to turn their head and all they can see is the wall of the cave. there's fire at the back of the cave which they projects puppets as the shadow for the prisoner to see. The prisoners cant see the puppets , the only thing the prisoner can see is the shadow of the puppets and hear echoes cast by the object. The prisoner then wouldn't know what is real and what is not real as they can only see the shadows so some of the assume that what they see and hear is real.  And if they could talk to one another, don’t you think they’d suppose that the names they used applied to the things they see passing before them?”(515b2) one of the lines from plato.  Quite confuse with this statement tho but it does make sense. they would just believe on what they see is true even if they can talk to each other. 

When the prisoners are released and see the real object they were confuse as what they see is not what they think they saw. Plato played with their mind. The mind only takes what the eyes can see and what form are they. 

What's creative about it? how plato manage to think and design this actual event and make people think differently by playing trick on the mind. 

in my opinion  plato's objective is that the mind can only take what the eyes can see and imagine what they are as the real object. but the mind can be wrong  as what we see is not always what they are. its like a mirage, the mind plays tricks on you.

Gladiator the movie

Gladiator is one of my all time favorite movie. It has one of the biggest impact on me altho i can relate my self in the movie as i am not a slave nor a king . this movie help me by inspiring me to be a better person. example maximus one of the main character , he was one of the kings men . after an unfortunate event he became a slave . then he brought him self up by winning the gladiator match! and he almost got to be the king but he died in the end.

The creative part about this movie is when now you are doing good. but after an unfortunate event you lost everything! that is not the end. life goes on and if you dont get back up your feet you will stay down forever , but if you stand and fight or face the truth and accept it , u can do it again and get back to where you were or even higher. because we learn from experience .

well in my opinion part of the flim is a propoganda. United State produce this flim. It didnt state when it was produce but it did state when it was released on  May 5, 2000.  why do people think that commodus is the bad one and maximus is the good one.? because that's what the director wants  you to think. during that time Kennedy was the US president and when he was detrone Gorge w.bush went up. could it be this is what they want to make people think about? because certainly this gladiator movie isn't really about rome. The US made this movie, maybe the US wants to think that US is rome? the great empire . This flim is based on propaganda as it want to influence the attitude of the community towards the flim. maybe the US wants us to believe that the emperor or the president now is a bad president and it need a new change. that is how i look at it when i saw the movie.
