The story of aion

There must be a strong story, when a multi player game is so successful, or it is not too easy to become a massively multiplayer online role-playing games or MMORPG. This fantasy game was released in North America on 20th may 2009 by a major Korean game developer company named NCsoft.

According to the story the world Atrea was created by AION in the beginning. He did create the human and also Balaur (Dragon god) to protect all human. But later Balaur attacked human and doomed everything that refused to accept their lordship, due to great obsession for power. They did start using their sights of human. In aion kinah games, there are five Balaur, they climbed to the height of the power from others. Eventually they became famous as the five dragon lords. Aion was one who refused to grant them the power they desired, the power to match his own and they churned up against the god that created them. Now there is one tower named “The Tower of Eternity” at the center of the earth, it is the source of all aion powers and Aether of the world. Aion created the twelve Empyrean lords to protect the tower and these Empyrean lords made a barrier around the ground of the tower to make it safe and people did start developing civilization within that barrier.

Hybrid SLI Technology

Scalable Link Interface or SLI is the industry leading technology by NVIDIA. The basic of the technology is to generate a combined force of NVIDIA motherboard’s GPU and a NVIDIA distinct Graphic processing unit (GPU). When end user adds NVIDIA Graphic card with SLI facility to a NVIDIA Hybrid SLI enabled motherboard, it increases graphic processing performance with GeForce Boost and provides level-headed power management with hybrid power. In one sentence you will feel the power of a combined force of an embedded and a discrete GPU.

The Technology is not pocket friendly at all, the end user must buy a discrete GPU to experience the most recent 3D games with High graphical option and the power consumption will increase noticeably. All though NDIVIA is planning for something to decrease the power consumption but until they are hitting the market the electricity bill will increase. SLI is available in both Intel and AMD platforms.

While Upgrading

PCS – Personal Computer System, reflection of your need and choice. One adorable device that can deliver the ultimate ecstasy of a boy’s life. Related Technologies are changing every day, if you are buying a PC, after 6 months you will feel “let’s upgrade once”. The up-gradation is up to your need.

If you are feeling that all official works are smooth then it is OK, but if you are a gamer or multimedia professional or music composer or a fast computing lover then you will need a market survey before upgrading to the next level.
First properly sketch your need. If you are a gamer then you must think about what kind of technology latest games are comfortable with. For an example latest gaming companies are making games processor based, they are including lots of real-time processes to make them real. That is why while purchasing a gaming PC, just thinking about a powerful graphics card will not be beneficial at all.

If you are a multimedia professional then you must know what kind of graphics cards are suitable for multimedia professionals, like NVIDIA has their own different section of professional GPUs apart from gaming GPUs. They are called “NVIDIA Quadro”. If you are thinking about some music editing or composing work or practice then go to the website of any leading sound technology manufacturing company and see features and benefits of their products. Then go to any related forum and look for the reviews and comments. Then decide your next buy.

Remember the dough will leave your pouch, that should make you feel great or the pouch will be thrown in bin.

Kind Regards
Gamer Boy.

once upot a time - there was Consoles

Gaming consoles are modified computing devices or interactive processing unit that brings on video display signal only for the purpose of playing games. It will need a display device like television or monitor to give the virtual output of arcade games, there are dedicated arcade machines are available but not for home use, you can chare others to pay for the play.

Some basic elements or supplies of gaming consoles are:

a. Gaming media or sources of arcade data. This can be any type of read only memory data storage it can san be expressed as program storage for that particular gaming device.

b. Read write memory device. During game play there are some user interfaces like saving the game, loading the saved game position, deleting unwanted saves. For these actions one read-write memory is highly needed.

c. Main console unit, this is the main part with a gaming processor, random access memory and audit video transformer to deliver analog of digital output, it is a hub like device, where we can attach the power supply, gaming cartridges or ROM, controllers, audio and video output device.

d. Controllers are like to hands of the gaming console. It transfers human interface signals to the core to process the next move or action. There are game pads, keyboards, joysticks, infrared devices.

e. Power supply, supplies power to that device according to the need or capacity of the Unit. There is an adaptor that supplies DC current, converted from AC supply.

We can divide the gaming console periods by years of advancements.

1. First generation (1950 to 1972)
2. Second generation (1976 to 1983)
3. Third generation (1985 to 1988)
4. Fourth generation (1989 to 1995)
5. Fifth generation (1995 to 2000)
6. Sixth Generation (2000 to 2007)
7. Seventh generation (2008 to continuing)

Crysis is Quad Core

Not talking about the lack of qualities in Intel quad core processor. Real time calculations are needed in new age games to deliver the perfect action and reflexes, to make them touchier. The time has changes when our job was to think about the graphics cards, while purchasing new games, during game play, the AI software processes lots of real time calculations, they need multi-cores in order to process these calculations. Every game developing company is taking advantage of these multi-cores, available in market.

Crysis: The next generation game, from crytek, famous for creating record breaking graphics and real time reflex in gaming models. They are pooling the game performance to the last level of perfection. It rips all power from a powerful gaming rig to run; recently they have developed the cryengine 3. It is tested that crysis is smoother in quad core processors, in quad cores it is giving a continuous 24-30 FPS, though crytek is saying that, multi core will be beneficial to run, to make the game a mass product but it is clear that crysis only runs better in quad core. If you are having quad core then it’s ok or you are going to suffer.

Crysis is a game with more advanced A.I. and physics and audio requirements, like GTA-5 and godfather 2, multi threaded processor are only way to make these actions smooth. There are settings, need multi GPU to run and more and more ram and a powerful CPU.

Undercover – was not like Most Wanted

As a gamer, I do believe that the last hit from EA games was Most Wanted in NFS Series. After that carbon has eaten too much punch when it comes to a comparison and the last one was Undercover. In between I really want to write that NFS mean illegal street race, stylish moves, cars and up-gradations, wreckage, breakage, take any route you want, free style strategy to me and too many others. There are lots of games providing realistic track racing games, NFS should not be one of them. That is why I do not consider “Pro-street” and “shift” as a part of the series.

Under cover was not bad, cool realistic graphical quality, full of cinematic and dramatic effect but the game play was not cool, when I was hitting cars they were not breaking, I mean the hitting impact was not that attractive. It was like I am touching and without breaking the car, drivers were dying. Police chasing was also not that cool and difficult like most wanted. They can be easily cheated.

I love doing anything with a car in NFS; I really mean it while saying “anything”, NFS is the best game for me since “hot pursuit III”


But now I have stopped expecting anything more that Most Wanted from them.

Gladiator the Daeva

Gladiators. The Daeva, that is the group they belong in aion kinah games. They are some kind of supernatural abstract entity in “Avestan” language. According to the Gathas, which is the most previous context of Zoroastrian cannon daeva (s) are “wrong god” or gods, are refused to be a part of the god community for some kind of misuse of power or madness.

Daevas conform to the star of the sword, extremely practiced, most wild melee weapons used to solve problems in no time. These weapons are having different fighting abilities and a gladiator’s job is to unleash the ultimate power of the battle skills, are available in that particular weapon. To attack enemies with power and pin point accuracy if the ultimate fantasy of a gladiator.

The Empyrean Lord Nezekan, while training Elysean Gladiators, they do follow the teaching techniques of him. The god of war but Asmodian Gladiators do follow the technique of the Empyrean Lord Zikel god of destruction and slaughter.
