You suck.

No, but someone else probably did and to his benefit.

OP, I hope you had fun, and please for the love of god tell me you went to MBK? If you didn't then you probably need a return visit.

I did not, but some girls in my group did. I went to Siam Paragon though for Man of Steel in IMAX ;o. Tell me what's so special about MBK!

Siam Paragon is like any other shopping centre.

MBK is a unique expirience, an indoor peddler's market where fake items co-exist with real stuff and shops range from storefront to tent. It is absolutely huge and will take you days to explore properly, most store are about the size of a hotdog stand and they have 7 levels of it sandwiched in tight corridors in walkways that stretch for kilometres.

They have fake cloth, real cloth, fake electronic, real electronic, toy, game stuff, models, tattoo palour, message parlour, specialist shop, jewellery shop, watch shop, furniture shop, art shop, restuarant, food stand and more.

To give you an idea of the duality, these images are shops in the same complex, the former is the specialist peddler stand (i think in level 7) and the later is the official Canon shop in Bangkok:

Why did you pretend to know nothing about the Vita? It has no future and you pushed your friend to buy it? Are you stupid?

Nice grind.

Well Siam Paragon was huge and the cinema was unlike any cinema in Iceland . Oh wow, MBK sounds good. I did go to a weekend market that was huge, I think it was called Chatuchak market or something like that.

I also went to the mall that contained purely tech-related stuff, as I mentioned in the OP. That was true heaven

The tech mall was kinda fun but the price for high end stuff wasn't as cheap as I expected so I only bought some fans and a heatsink. Did you went tot he first class or the 4D cinema is Siam? I kinda fell asleep watching Skyfall there lol, the blanket was so comfortable and I was basically in a bed.

When I was at MBK, I was looking around for a Bose QuietComfort 15 headphone. One of the shop I visited asked if I wanted the fake one, the better fake one, the off the truck one or the real one... they have them all in seems!

I also bought 2 pair of shoes, of different fake quality, jackets, pants and a shit load of shirts. The jacket and pants I bought was brandless but the shirts were all big brand ripoff. There is so much stuff in the shopping mall I can literally stay there for a 3-4 days without seeing everything.

Edit: The weekend market is similiar to MBK but goddamn I couldn't enjoy it because of the heat. MBK had AIR CON ffs! That's why its a better expirience, even though the weekend market is arguably cheaper.

Edit2: And MBK has more variety in terms of electronics...

Its Sony products, your title is safe. If you own a Nintendo or Xbox however, your blood is therefore tainted and you must resign.

I mean thats how I would feel if a PS console ever entered my house



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

pfffff..... a Sony fan didn't buy PSVita. You must feel shame on yourself.... Kidding.....

Well, I bought my Vita at launch but I only have 4 games now. In the meanwhile, I have 15 3DS titles.....

Just IMAX 3D. "Premium seats", I think. You mean you got first class seats?

The weekend market had air con :O. And it was basically inside, since it had a "roof". Yes, there weren't many electronics to look at in the weekend market.

I went first class - they this recliner that could go full vertical and you get a quilt blanket, I push it all the way up and fell asleep halfway through the film lol.

I don't remember their being air con in the weekend market... it was stinking hot and I got as far as the 'roof' area before giving up xD.... I had bought most of the stuff I needed in patpong by then so I was simply looking around and searching for food vendor lol.

Would you have bought the Vita if it had a hooker bundled?
