The human body needs vitamins & proteins to repair itself. Your bike needs servicing in the form of oil change, greasing etc. So do computers need to be serviced from time to time so as to keep them running at a top level of efficiency.

Here in this guide I would teach you the HARDWARE part.

Mobiles have become truly convergent devices. Though the primary use of mobile is communication but now people need their phone to do everything their pc does. It is highly impossible for these mobiles to challenge today’s multi core computers but they aren’t lagging too far. Mobiles today have ample power to do almost any task which you will need on your move. It can play music, surf the web, click HD pics etc. But for gamers, mobiles didn’t delivered. Gamers needed some good games, but didn’t got them. They needed good graphics but their wish again wasn’t fulfilled.

But now, Gone are the days when you were limited with playing some crappy java games on your mobile phone. Gone are the 2D games with mediocre graphics. You might think I will be telling you about the next gaming mobile, but that’s not the case here. I am talking about NGAGE 2.0

NGAGE 2.0 is the next generation gaming platform released in the midst of 2007 by Nokia. It is a successor to their popular gaming device NGAGE QD which ran the NGAGE 1.0. NGAGE 1.0 was device integrated but the newer 2.0 isn’t. It works on myriad N series devices & also on non N-series devices by some hacking. NGAGE 2.0 is available only for s60 v3 and not for earlier versions of Symbian OS.

I installed NGAGE 2.0 on my Nokia 5700 a couple of weeks ago. Being non compatible with NGAGE, I had to first hack my device. After sometime NGAGE 2.0 was up & running. The NGAGE 2.0 is designed in such a way that it helps to keep your offline cum online stats in sync. You can even play games online with other players; it just requires you to have an internet connection on your device. I encountered some minor issues during online play, but still it wasn’t that bad. I enjoyed it a lot.

If you do not have an Internet connection on your mobile then you need not to worry. NGAGE offers a wide range of single player games which are highly enjoyable. I had fun playing them on my commute, in my free time and even between lecture breaks in classes. The games look very good and the sound good too. I recommend you play them with your earphones.

Some NGAGE 2.0 Games, I highly recommend :

1) Resident Evil – Degeneration

2) Space Impact – Kappa Base

3) Mile High Pinball

4) Metal Gear Solid

5) Asphalt 3 – Street Rules

6) Crash Bandicoot – Nitro Kart 3D

7) Fifa 09

The games are highly addictive, so it’s recommended to play safe or else get ready to miss a lot of deadlines. Go ahead, Game On !!!

Ghajini !!! You must have been familiar with this name. It had been a much hyped film starring Mr.Perfectionist Aamir Khan. I saw the film in the afternoon yesterday & here are my outputs on the same.

The film plot revolves round Sanjay Singhania (Aamir Khan) who is a victim of short term. He is on a pursuit to hunt down the murderer(Ghajini) of his lady love kalpana which is played by the debutante Asin. But the difficulty in this mission is Aamir is totally unaware of Ghajini. He neither remembers how he looks nor has a snap of him. The film plot dwindles back & forth intelligently, feeding Aamir with small bits of info that helps him getting closer to Ghajini – The man who killed Kalpana.
