I think 7 would be good if you could hook up with people like Dave in the evenings. I was there for 8, but 3 days of it was a giant work party, so entertainment was indoors at the conference centre (magician / singers / dancers etc). Not really representative of a normal holiday). I think 5 would be enough on your own.

Going digital if I'm not out of here by Christmas. Which I will be, so I'll be staying physical. xD
Originally posted by noobish hat View PostI might be moving to Singapore soon too. What kind of game shops do they have? Any? Do they have retro stuff? Isn't there strict censorship in Singapore?
I work next to Funan, which is one of the main tech/camera/figures malls. New games are quite cheap within the grand scheme of overpriced Singapore, and cost around $60-77 SGD.
The censorship sucks. You can't buy porn mags or anything because they don't exist here. Besides that some of the more 'mature' video games can get delayed for weeks whilst they go through the MDA classification to make sure they don't contain explicit content or anything anti-communist.
Be careful what you say online as well. You can leave your free speech back home.

It's not, not officially anyway.
Not necessarily a bad thing overall. But there are certainly remnants of it within the politics and general mindset of the people. Don't dare say anything bad about the government publicly.
The population is mainly Chinese. There are a lot of Indians too, and billions of Bangladeshi construction workers. Chinese people have it best when seeking permanent residency too, for some reason. Probably because the government is Chinese. I've got no chance.Last edited by dataDave; 22-06-2015, 16:32.

Anyway, if anyone moves out here or comes for a holiday be sure to hit me up. I'll treat you to a seafood dinner and advise where to eat cheaply.
If anyone's a Street Fighter head I can introduce you to Gackt, Xian, & Co. at Tough Cookie, as well as pinpoint all the worthwhile arcades for you.
