- AMD -
A few years ago, AMD users are always proud of having the fastest processors around, but not anymore, ever since Intel's Core 2 Duo came out.
But never mind, Malaysians can have something else to be proud of... proud of the fact that real shots of the processors always show that they're Made in Malaysia.
Possible benefits? slightly cheaper? hahaha
- Game Engine -
A game engine is the core component of a game (PC/consoles alike) - or basically the underlying technology which allows easier development ... ... and read wikipedia's definition instead >>. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_engine.
Famous engines include Epic Games' Unreal engine 1, 2 and 3 (*very very very widely used*), Valve's Source engine (Half Life 2), Crytek's CryEngine2 (Crysis).
And here comes a new engine called Dunia for the game Far Cry 2.
Well, the name doesn't really have anything to do with Malaysia actually... hahaha... no contribution from Malaysia - nil. NOR will it be used to render a virtual Malaysia, nope. It's just that the engine is given a Malay name... lol, but befitting the engine though, as it looks great at creating a virtual "dunia".
- No fee FREE -
Lastly, something we can be more proud of... or maybe just half proud of - churning out FREE MMORPG to the world.
June's PC Gamer US (not MY) specially mentioned Korea and Malaysia as "flooding the web with more and more no-fee games every day - many of which are archaic, incomprehensible, or just plain bad". Plain bad eh, I gotta agree. I guess this makes it only a quarter to be proud of.
And... add to the fact that Korea (and to a much lesser extent China) are the true countries that are developing these games, and not Malaysia (we're just localizers), that leaves us with nothing to be proud of...
