    Least satsifying game endings?

    Rage what a let-down that was. Finally storm the gates of the stronghold of the enemy we learned very little about or why we should be fighting them, then after fending off a few cracked out borg smeagles with a minigun you get a bunch of metal shelters popping up out of the ground and then...

    My TV keeps temporarily dying

    I have a 40" LCD TV by Seiki. everytime the power gets cut off to unexpectedly (IE power outage/surge), the standby light doesnt come on once power is restored and it won't turn on. This is very odd considering it's plugged into a good quality surge protector, and everything else plugged into...

    Winamp Bids a Final Farewell In December

    well this sucks. winamp has been the only music player i use. the interface is brilliant and it has a visulalizer like no other i've seen. it supports most any format of audio or video, in addition to having support for burning cd and sync with ipods and other devices. i've literally been using...

    Taking a "Break"

    so me and my gf have been together for a while, 18 months this friday actually, and we've been close friends for years before. a few months ago she moved to Toronto for college (i live in an adjacent town an hour away), we both have our licenses but no cars so we rarely get to see each other...

    The Last Of Us: What am I missing?

    Call of Duty: Ghosts Lets You Play as a Woman

    i can't believe that this culture has gotten to the point where a woman in call of duty makes the news as if it's so shocking and ground breaking. then again i suppose it adds a certain amount of realism call of duty so sorely needs.

    Nintendo Will "Never" Develop For Other Platforms, Says Iwata

    i honestly think it's the only way nintendo is going to stay afloat. the second last paragraph made me lol. nintendo's last major progression in game technology was the N64. it had amazing graphics, a great lineup of games and developers (especially with Rare on their side), and they were...

    Lets Talk The Big 3 (Anime shows)

    if you didnt like that part, you really wouldnt like how they cut to an entire non-sequitur SEASON in the MIDDLE of the arrancar arc. basically it goes from ichigo beating a major foe, to everyone suddenly being back in town doing nothing of any relation to what just happened, then season 10...

    Lets Talk The Big 3 (Anime shows)

    My big 3 anime shows are Bleach, DBZ, and Full Metal Alchemist. i also enjoy Hellsing but i never finished it. all of the shows i mentioned are essentially the perfect shows for boys aged 11-17 who want to see blood, fights, and explosions. But now that i'm older i appreciate the stories...
