CG Character by The Hand
Insane Polygons said:
Very happy to post new wip images of a character I am doing for submission to Exotique. There’s still a lot of stuff left to tweak, but I am happy with the progress. Competition is getting tougher and tougher these days.
Recommended by Anonymous Coward: "CG works by our very own Singapore talent. I don't believe we can't do better than The Legend of the Sea."

Game Development: Singapore lacks ability to think outside the box?
IGN said:
[Eidos' Ian] Livingstone opined that Singapore lacked "the ability to think outside the box to create new intellectual property, new game-play and new characters". Then, just to add insult to injury, he bemoaned: "The tendency here [Singapore] is to make copies of previous games, rather than to think about what the world hasn't seen before or what new games haven't been done before. [There must be a] unique selling point that differentiates them [game developers] from everyone else."

ST: Wi-Fi thief pleads guilty
Enigma said:
So, the verdict is finally out. The 17 year-old guy had really been charged just for a simple act of wifi mooching. Simple as that. So what really happened is that, the guy was bored, went out to mooch, noticed by a kay-poh neighbour who then called the police even when the wifi-network didn’t belong to him/her?
Recommended by Anonymous Coward: "Does this set the context of wifi-mooching? But I bet that there are probably quite a few out there who are still mooching on unsecured networks, away from the peering eyes of the neighbour. There is no mention of content, but theft is theft, isn't it? It doesn't matter what the thief stole."
