I was browsing the usual places that gamers gather on the net to find out the newest pieces of info about their favortie gaming topics when I came across the SKUs for the new Xbox 360. It was interesting to see how Microsoft was approaching the next generation of gaming. Instead of having one set system, it appears that they will have two. For those of you wh
When I read the first of the allegations, these were some of the hard points that were pointed out. Now that they have started in earnest, and I have read a lot more about it, this is my response: " Yes, AMD is a superior chip, and yes it is hard to buy and support a AMD-based computer." While I was shocked to read some of the ensuing media, I have changed my stance. It does make sense the Grove and company would end up using retaliation for p
As I approach lvl 60, and as I have posted in my other WoW post, the need for better and better equipment becomes greater and greater. One guild in particular has been brought to my attention time and time again: Soverign. Sov is one of those ultra guilds that spend almost every night doing the high lvl instances and getting the loot. Seeing them decked out m
I would concure that statement
THe thing is that it is great the the AMD line of 64 bit chips are out there, and gret for them to jump the line and be first. The problem I see with AMDs move is that they put so much time and effort into producing 64 bits chips without the support of 64 bit programs/OS. Sure, XP 64 is supposed ot be somewhere (has someone actually seen it yet? I haven't) and all that time and resource could have gone elsewhere. I have a feeling that AMD will stay in
I will also be in line for the midnight offering of the book here in my town..woot!
Well, the countdown is almost done. Thousands upon hundreds of thousands of muggles wait in baited breath for the next, second to last installment of the popular Harry Potter series from J.K. Rowling. The US publishers have already accepted over 1 million pre-orders, no doubt increased in the last week before the storm breaks. My local Chapters Book
So, AMD (American Micro Devices) has decided ot wage a war against it's only competitor, Intel, for unfair business practices, a'la DOJ vs Microsoft back in 97. The processor manufacturer is calling Intel's business influence unfair. What started as a lot of back and forth, AMD has decided to push it's suit onward to the American leagal system and taking its
I was in a party in on of the higher level instances, in this case, Dire Maul, when a Staff of the Ogre Magi dropped. As a priest, I was very intent on getting it. For that matter, it was the reason that I went through the hell of Dire Maul. THe rules for loot was simple, pass on everything and then roll for Blues and sets. Then, the rogue in the party looted it and l
as many gaming maniacs probably already know, your PSP can become a expensive tool for oldschool gaming. Most have probably already read or have tried to use Homebrew emulator programs for the Sony PSP. Basically for the newly informed, it is a hack exploit that allows you to boot emulators off the memory stick of your PSP to play emulated NES, SNES, Genesis, and even
grrr! me hate ppl like you lol! j/k
No, I totoally agree. It makes sense for the gaming industry to point sex into the next generation of gamers, but it is their responciblity to NOT do it. While there is some pressure for gaming companies to draw in a older crowd, I'm not sure console games are the way. While I agree when you say that men can go and buy porn, the reason that they want these same men in the gaming market is pure money. Adults don't have to ask a parent to buy smutt, and
Do you remember a little game for the Xbox and PS2 called BMX XXX? Sure some of you do, and most likely, some of you bought it. It was a adventurous romp into BMXing and nudity. Critics held it up as another reason to ban games or kill games all together. After all, if our precious kiddies are exposed to these things in a video game, what will come of them?
Equilibrium is waht made me a fan of Christian Bale too...go rent it! NOW!
THis starts out simple enough: I got a e-mail form the regional tech department the other day stating that if we are working on certina model e-machines, please note the motherboard type. Apparently certain motherboards and power supplies, when combined, will cause the computer to burst into flames. I am not kidding. I have lamented to colligues and
So, on the server of Dragonmaw, I have hit 56 with my NE priest. Reflecting back on some of the gaming highlights and lows of playing, I thought I would mention a few. I love that this game allows people to level cap, but some of the people playing shouldn't be that high. I have gotten into some parties where there is just no way for our party to survive, bec
What can I say that hasn't been said a million times over the time since Batman Begins came to the big screen until now? Nothing. There is nothing to say. I was a little scepticle about the re-invention of the whole series. After all, wasn't the original Batman good? Didn't it give us all hope that there would be a good future for comic book movies until they disappoi
It has been a long time since I wrote a article, and I thought what better to write on then the impending next generation console war. When the original next generation consoles were released back about five years ago, things were in a interesting place. Nintendo, the king of the consoles had been defeated by the up and coming starter Playstation and people
Well, it seems that someone decided to release a new version of one of my favorite trilogies in five parts. Yes, last week, nation wide, HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy was released to the masses. I was so excited, I read through all five books like I would before any major movie production that spawned from a book. Just wait for November when I re-read all
I am a huge fan of Nine Inch Nails. I have all the Halo albums, the singles, the stuff that a normal fan would have. Yesterday, I picked up the next album that came out, With Teeth. I was scepticle. You see, way back in the day, NIN released a double album called the Fragile. I was hyped, it was two discs of my favorite frontman and whatever musical
Well, it has been almost two weeks sice I updated..being a corporate whore in a large company doesn't do much for life except make it a huge thing revolving around work. But, on the plus side, I know get to post my thoughts about WoW. First off, I spent a entire weekend playing it with very little sleep. I have to say that the one thing that has ent
It is truely amazing where your life could lead you. I, for instance, never thought I would have quit FFXI for WoW. First, let me add my two cents into the ring. It is a freaking good game. Blizzard took a game, made it ten times better than anything else it has ever made, then made it 100% better than that. So, by calculations, it is 1000000000 times better
David Hasselhoff as Nick Fury? Dang.....can't sleep, movie will eat me.
not that this is a defense, but there is little concrete proof that MJ is a molester. To me, it sounds like he is, but I'm one person. To just randomly throw out there that he is a pedo and somehow is escaping the justice of the system, not so sure.
somehow I don't think it would be..the hollywood answer to manking movies better is cramming them with stars...Nic Cage has star power, so therefore people will go see it regardless...they haven't figured out that comic and gaming movies don't nessisarily work that way...oh well.
