I heard rumor today that one of the other little video stores in town is closing up. The source isn’t the most reliable when it comes to rumors however, so I’ll just have to go do some snooping of my own to see if there’s any truth to it. If it does close up that [...]
The wireless guitars are finally available for the XBox 360, and they’re definitely nice to have. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to find a guitar by itself, only in the GH3 bundle for $99. I ended up buying a bundle and packing the unopened copy of GH3 in with my used-but-perfect-condition Xplorer guitar and will sell [...]
Cables cost a fortune, typically, it’s one of the few items that electronics stores actually make good money on. My last trip through Staples in search of an HDMI cable would have set me back $80, but I know that’s retarded so I hit up the smaller computer stores instead and picked one up for [...]
I’ve had this nasty cold now for going on 3 weeks, just can’t seem to shake it completely. I think there was a touch of the flu in there too since I was running a low fever for a couple of days last week. Now I’m left with the chest congestion and hacking cough, what [...]
Lately I’ve been turning a lot of the websites I own into blogs. They’re easy to update this way and information can be sorted into categories or by tags, and entire blogs are very easy to search through. Changing the entire look is simply a matter of downloading a new theme and in seconds you [...]
The Rock Band DLC so far this month has been pretty disappointing. On April 1st all we got was one song, Still Alive, from the game ‘Portal’. Granted, this was a free download so that’s a good thing, but then this week all we get is the Harmonix track pack, the same 3 songs that [...]
Last night I finally managed to finish the last level in EDF 2017. It’s a hell of a fight with the mother ship and since I was playing on normal without the added benefit of playing through easy first, it was harder than it needed to be. The fight starts off ok, you just have [...]
Some time soon a woman I know will be going for a bit of a stay at the hospital to get a fibromyalgia (fibroids) problem taken care of. They’ve grown rather large and uncomfortable over the last couple of years and unfortunately the only solutions are to have them removed or wait until menopause sets [...]
I picked up a used copy of Saints Row today, been meaning to try it for a while now since I had been hearing it’s one of the better Grand Theft Auto knock-offs. Will give it a try later when I finish my work on the computer. I hope the run & gun part of [...]
There’s a short cut for getting achievements for beating all 3 difficulties in Blacksite: Area 51. After you finish the game and have all the levels unlocked, simply load up the last chapter for each of the 6 episodes and beat them, in order from 1 to 6, and it will count as completed. These [...]
Another fairly recent XBox 360 game crossed my path recently so I decided to check it out. I’ve been playing on easy since I still haven’t adjusted to using a controller for an FPS game, and so far it’s been an enjoyable ride aside from a couple of annoyances. First off I’ve gone through several [...]
As some people may have noticed, this site (and my subdomains) have been rather flaky lately, especially during the last few days. Emails with tech support have turned up very little useful info as to what’s causing the problem or a good long term solution. I’m getting rather fed up with it and have been [...]
If only this were true! Good job Blizzard on a spectacular April Fool’s joke. I’m sure I wasn’t alone on this line of thinking, but when the Activision/Blizzard merger was first announced I thought “Cool, they should add a bard class to WoW and let people use Guitar controllers to play it.” And now here [...]
