21:41 Turkey won Senegal by a goal to nil in extra time. They will be facing Brazil again in the semi-finals on Wednesday, June 26 2002 @ 7.30pm. GO BRAZIL!~!~!~

17:12 Korea beat Spain in penalty kick 5-3, damm it, Korea is really damm lucky. Everyday is Sunday to them. Germany against Korea on Tuesday, June 25 2002 @ 7.30pm for the semi-final match. GO GERMANY!~!~!

15:24 Boring 1st half of the match between Spain and Korea, I see the way Korea play, cannot make it,
wonder how they manage to defeat Portugal and Italy, maybe they are lucky at the time. For the 1st half, they hardly attack Spain at all, and Spain did all the attacking.

21:27 Yes Brazil did it, beating Belgium 2-1, and will be facing England in the quarter final. As the commentator said England has never won Brazil, will history repeat itself? We will know it on Friday, 21st June 2002 at 2.30pm.

18:22 Sorry for the late update, was playing Warcraft III until I forgot the time, the game really rocks. Anyway, USA beat Mexico 2-0 and they proceed on to the quater final. In an hour time, Brazil will play with Belgium. Go Brazil!~!~!

World Cup 2002 Day 15

21.30 DAMM IT, I can’t believe that Korea beat Portugal, Portugal just lack luck, nevermind hope they can do better in the next World Cup in Germany. Lets hope Korea faces Brazil somewhere Brazil will whack them with as many goals as possible. Go Brazil!~!~! For Group D Korea and USA went into the 2nd round.

14.30 yes, Japan did Asia proud by topping Group H and making thier way to the 2nd round. Joining them in the 2nd round is Belgium which is 2nd in Group H.

2.30 Hmm interesting stuffs about the world cup:

Brazil last won the world cup in 1994.
Before that they won it in 1970.
Add 1970 and 1994, it equals 3964.

Argentina last won the world cup in 1986.
Before that they won it in 1978.
Add 1978 and 1986, it equals 3964.

Germany last won in 1990.
Before that they won in 1974.
Add 1990 and 1974, it equals 3964.

So going by this logic, the winner of the 2002 world cup
is the same as the 3964 - 2002 = 1962 world cup.
The 1962 world cup was won by Brazil

1:00 Updated the ususal stuffs, today will be the last day of the group matches. So expect only 2 matches per day for the next few days. =)

Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos Gone Gold
Posted By Lester Chan at 00:43 in Gaming

Yes, thats right the game we have been waiting for, for the pass 2 years had gone gold. It will start shipping to retailers worldwide on July 3 2002. So guys, start saving your money now, from what I know, the collector’s edition will be about S$110 and the normal edition will be about $60. Not confirm though.

Here is a scoope from its press release:

In Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, players revisit the war-torn world of Azeroth a generation after the end of the Second War between the Orcs and the Humans. The fragile peace that had since settled over the land is now on the verge of being shattered, for a dark power has returned after thousands of years to carry out its nefarious plans. Two new races - the Undead Scourge and the Night Elves - emerge to join the fray, as players follow a single epic storyline through four successive campaigns. Players can also take the battle into their own hands in an enhanced multiplayer mode, playable on local area networks and exclusively over the Internet on Battle.net®, the largest online service of its kind in the world.
