Speaking of which, does anyone payed 13.99 British Pounds Sterling to download a new PS3 game straight from the Playstation Network?
What is it? Something?
It's DOCTOR WHO: THE ETERNITY CLOCK!
Whoa! This is the first time I'd expected a Doctor Who video game coming.
Yep, the very first Doctor Who video game available for download at the Playstation Network on Playstation3 worldwide. On this game, you can be either The Doctor (played by Matt Smith) or River Song (played by Alex Kingston) as they travel different time periods of London to discover the mystery of the Eternity Clock. I know, I tried that game before but as it gets progressive, it gets difficult. Oh, and you do wanna watch out against the most memorable Doctor Who enemies from the TV series, including the Cybermen, Silurians, Silents, and of course (our favorite baddies), Daleks.
That Eternity Clock game, this is the first time we'd expected a dream come true for Doctor Who fans worldwide. I think it's cool if you're a nerd. But never mind, moving on...
Right. I heard that everyone's favorite BMW, the flagship 7-Series F01, gets a minor change for the 2013 Model Year. Take a look at this 2013 BMW 7-Series facelift.
 |
| 2013 BMW 7-Series |
As explained by others, the 2013 BMW 7-Series has new LED headlamps with corona rings, revised kidney grille, revamped front bumper, new interior, 1,200-watt Bang & Olufsen High End Surround Sound System and an optional Rear Seat Entertainment package with a new 9.2-inch monitor. Reports said that there's a new variant of the 2013 BMW 7-Series F01 which comes with the new 3.0-liter tri-turbocharged inline-six diesel, first seen in the M550d xDrive.
(oooh)
So, the 2013 7-Series now comes with a variant that has a tri-turbo diesel engine? Wowies. I'm glad to heard that.
Yeah, right. Those refinements will keep them fresh ever since the F01 came out in 2008. Not sure why the heck there are some idiots around here love the BMW 7-Series so much. One of their favorites was the 760Li thanks to is V12 twin turbo engine.
Ugh....

| Mazda Roadster |
 |
| Alfa Romeo Spider |
Hey! I got some news!
What?
What?
I just heard that Mazda and Alfa Romeo team up to create a new Spider based on the next generation Mazda Roadster.
Really?
Says here:
Yep. There's no denying that this is the first time the Italians team up with the Japanese. It's like...Axis Powers working together as a team.
(ooohhh)
I just don't get it...
(laughing)
Why?
Those Euro-Nippon collaboration. Sometimes it didn't work it out...
But some are still in the process...
Yeah, whatever. There are some similar cases which include that a new Toyota compact will have a BMW engine, next Nissan Skyline will have a Mercedes-Benz engine, something, something....
There was Mitsubishi and PSA Peugeot-Citroen. Instances like the Outlander, RVR, and i MiEV spawned French cousins include the 4007, C-Crosser, C-Zero, iOn, even the recently launched 4008 and the C4 Aircross.
Oh really? In the past, there was a partnership between Suzuki and Volkswagen but it didn't work out and the partnership has ceased.
(yawn)
(laughing)
I just don't get it about those collaboration between European and Japanese car makers. It all seems weird. It's like making sushi made out of...well...um...something European. It's like a Frenchman speaking Japanese. You know what I mean?
(laughing)
Anyway, moving out. I heard that with a show joining the ranks with Top Gear USA, the BBC America show titled Richard Hammond's Crash Course will be aired globally on BBC Knowledge, BBC Entertainment or BBC HD this August.
(ooohh)
No wonder Richard Hammond's show about him in the USA driving the toughest machines is going to be aired worldwide. Heh, most of our pals from Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Jakarta, and Hong Kong will be pleased to see Hammo's show. But that made me sad.
Why?
In the Philippines, we only have BBC World News and CBeebies. We have no such channels that aired our favorites such as Top Gear and Doctor Who. Wake up, SKYCABLE! We want those channels!!!
Whoa there! Better slow down or you're slipping it up. Anyway, back for some Doctor Who-related stuff...
Yes, indeed. If you want to see the big Doctor Who experience in Cardiff, well worry no more because BBC announced that the Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff will start at July 20, 2012, making it a perfect summer activity for those who loved Doctor Who's adventures.
Wow! That was amazing! The whole family living in Cardiff will be happy to visit that and enjoy the best Doctor Who experience. So cool, they will have to put it on their "How I spent my summer vacation" paper!
Wait, what? What do you mean "How I spent my summer vacation" paper?
(laughing)
It's what the little kids do when school starts.
Oh, okay.
Anyway, I got news that...THE RENAULT ALPINE IS BACK!
(applause)
Take a look at this Alpine of the 21st century...
 |
| Renault Alpine A110-50 Concept |
Oh, that's the car that celebrates the 50th birthday of the Alpine A110.
I think this is somewhat a DeZir concept but a little bit too messy.
This is the Renault Alpine A110-50 Concept. This is a tribute to the Alpine A110's 50th birthday and it comes with a engine derived from a Megane Trophy race car. It churns out 400hp at 7,200 rpm and 422Nm (311 lb-ft) at 6,200 rpm. A semi-automatic six-speed sequential gearbox drives the rear wheels through a limited slip differential.
Cool, but it's a bit too mental. It's like some crazy man escaped from the mental hospital in Mandaluyong.
(laughing)
Okay...okay...this whole Alpine tribute concept car is a bit too mental hospital-ish... If you don't wan't it. What can you say about this?
 |
| Ferrari SP12 EC |
At first glance this is somewhat a Ferrari 458 Italia with some hint of design that harked back to the Ferrari 512BB. This is a one-off Ferrari made for the singer named Eric Clapton
(oooh)
Wait, Eric Clapton likes Ferrari?
Well frankly yes. He's a Ferrari aficionado and his special Ferrari 458 was one of the Ferrari Special Projects since the SP1, the Superfast Aperta, and the Superamerica. This is the Ferrari SP12 EC, a Ferrari 458 Italia made for Eric Clapton.
A Ferrari 458 made for Eric Clapton with a hint of design based on the Berlinetta Boxer is just somewhat a very unique Ferrari made with a signature of Eric Clapton himself. Quite a catch here...
I like it. Sadly, we can't have his Ferrari.
(awww)
Anyway, BMW Z4 by the way, it seems that this roadster got its Zagato makeover, resulting to a BMW Z4 Zagato concept.
 |
| BMW Z4 Zagato Concept |
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Another Zagato masterpiece? Last year, we saw the V12 Vantage-based Aston Martin V12 Zagato (we tried that on FM4 since March) and we'd expected a limited road-legal version this year. So, there is another car designed at the hands of Zagato and this time, it's a BMW Z4 E89?
Those guys from Zagato really are slick right now.
You say that. Heh....
 |
| Peugeot 301 |
Ooh? What's this?
I don't know. This is a Peugeot 301, a low-cost sedan made for emerging markets.
Wait...301? I heard news that the...you know. 308! Some reports saying that the 308 will be replaced by the 301...
That's just wordiness. I heard that starting with the 301, the Peugeot naming structure will be revised and all Peugeot cars will have end numbers 1 and 8. That's it.
So you're saying that for example, if the 308 gets a replacement, it won't be called a 309, right?
Yeah, they'll just stick to the 308 naming.
I wonder what happened to namings of other Peugeot cars such as the RCZ and Bipper Tepee?
Not sure, but let's wait for the verdict.
Okay...
Anyway, a few days ago, I finally got my hands on the Top Secret 0-300 Supra. A unicorn car rewarded for those who participated last month's Forza 4 VIP Rivals Event. I was going to give it to Stig to test drive it but sadly, we kinda forgot about my Mugen Civic Type R EP3. I decided to do double shifts on this day and therefore, the Stig drove two of these prized possessions.
Unicorns..
Unicorns that is...
I have the results. Mugen EP3 did it in 1:32.911 while Top Secret Supra did it in 1:24.116. That's it for now, I think...
Anyway, a couple of weeks ago, Mercedes-Benz USA noticed my Forza 4 video of a E63 AMG at the Top Gear Test Track and they said that I was impressed about showcasing it.
Really?
They said they would like to offer me a gift from Mercedes Shop and I accepted the offer.
What was that gift?
It was a 1:18 scale diecast of the Mercedes AMG SLS.
(oohhh)
Not joking. It's true. The folks from Mercedes-Benz USA sent me a gift as a token of appreciation. That diecast I got there is a bridge between me and the brand. I surely promise I won't break it apart just like what I did on the Ferrari F50 when I was a boy.
Sure?
I have my promise...
Yeah but you said you don't like diecast model cars?
I'm a changed man now. I am now accepting those because sometimes computer games aren't as better than old-fashioned toys. I agree to that now.
Oh....
Anyway, bad news. You may remember that General Motors are always a big player for NFL Super Bowl. However, thanks for ditching Facebook ads, General Motors decided to pull out from the 2013 Super Bowl.
Whoa! Hang on! Hang on! What? General Motors are withdrawing from advertising for next year's Super Bowl?
It's a shame. It costs over three million dollars to make a 30-second Super Bowl ad earlier. Next year, it will be 4 million. Some say...
General Motors never knew that will happened...
No way...
(awwww)
Anyway, that's the news and we'll leave you with a song you're familiar with...LOOKS LIKE WE MADE IT...
(laughing)
