"Hand Held Controllers Obsolete in 3 years" says idiot boyfriend!

OK, so there are a lot of things my boyfriend and I do not agree on. What movies we should go see or what television show we should watch for the evening sometimes can be tricky. But nothing and I mean nothing has lead to more of a WWE styled showdown then the idiotic statement he made to me today! The man told me that "Hand held controllers will be obsolete in 3 years". Seriously how did you become my boyfriend making such stupid statements. So let's analyze this statement with some facts!

Dexter is coming Back!!!

I have just seen the trailer for the new upcoming season of Dexter! If you haven't been following this show then you are really missing out. Set in Miami, the show centers on Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall), a blood-spatter analyst for the Miami Metro Police Department, who moonlights as a serial killer.

It's Official Kinect Will Retail For $150

The news might not be a surprise for most of you because speculated prices had been advertised on numerous retail websites since E3. Nevertheless, there were still some (small) surprises in Microsoft’s announcement. Kinect games will retail at $49.99, instead of the $59.99 more typical of Xbox 360 releases -- and the basic Kinect unit will come bundled with multiplayer outdoor game Kinect Adventures.

I want to see Quentin Tarantino's Natural Born Killers

I recently watched Natural Born Killers today. There was nothing on cable and the dvd was staring at me on the shelf so I popped it in to watch. Now this movie is one of my favorite films by Oliver Stone and I have always been entertained by the over the top characters Mickey and Mallory Knox. But I have to admit that I have always and still want to see Quentin Tarantino's original vision for this movie.

Xbox 360 Dashboard Update Coming in November

The Xbox 360 dashboard, the user interface for Microsoft's gaming console, looks like it may be getting a slight polish in November when the company launches their Xbox Live Gold Family plan. Microsoft confirms that the November Family Center update will include a "refreshed" Xbox Live dashboard. "Yes, the next Xbox LIVE update will include Family Center," said a Microsoft spokesperson. "As we discussed at E3 it will also include a refreshed Xbox LIVE dashboard, the new Kinect Hub and ESPN. This update will be available over LIVE just prior to Kinect for Xbox 360 being available in store in November. We have no additional details to share at this time."

GREEN LANTERN PRODUCERS WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have to comment on the “first look” at Ryan ReynoldsGreen Lantern “costume,” on the cover of EW (magazines are still useful?!). This costume sucks Monkey Balls! Reynolds is not actually wearing a costume, rather the entire suit is CGI-ed onto his body. Who ever came up with this brilliant idea needs to be blackballed from Hollywood. I would not only think that having your entire costume CGI-ed to your body would be more expensive then actually wearing a costume made out of material but having your costume CGI-ed is just fucking STUPID!!! It looks like something I created in photoshop. The mask looks like face paint. The costume looks even worst. If the costume looks this stupid I can only imagine what the fight scenes are going to look like. As a woman I would have loved to see Ryan Reynolds in an actual costume because he is a lovely piece of eye candy (I apologize in advance to all my male readers) but this is just crazy, bizarre and beyond stupid. I am not looking forward to this sure to be shitastic movie.

Cool Youtube video rap!!

So I am a YouTuber. I am looking for cool new videos all the time. I found this video from a Youtuber named DeStorm. He gets thousands of views for some of his cool rap videos and this happens to be one of them. He had a challenge to piece together a rap using almost exclusively video game titles. Yeah, it does sound kind of stupid I know but I was really amused with the results. So I am posting it here for you to enjoy! Thoughts?! Leave your comments!

How The Mighty Have Fallen

It really sucks to admit but I have FINALLY been defeated by my boyfriend in a video game. I am no longer invincible to him and it is a crushing blow to me. Here is how it all went down. Yesterday we decided to get some gaming in after a lengthy argument the previous night over my obsessive Modern Warfare 2 playing. We came to a happy agreement and decided to play some Split/Second the next night. Game night arrives and I put my trusty game into the Xbox 360 thinking to myself this is going to be to damn easy because I am way better at this game than my boyfriend. Boy was I wrong!

I PLAY TO WIN!!!

As I have mentioned in a previous post my boyfriend has yet to beat me in any video game. I am here to say that I am still undefeated! I do have a very interesting update on this. So I recently received the race car game Split Second for the XBOX 360. Split/Seconds core gimmick revolves around a series of environmental traps called power plays that causes your opponents to crash if you time them just right. You can fill your power play meter by drifting around turns, drafting behind opponents, and catching air off jumps. This game is actually pretty fun. It has a lot of replay value with its online multi player mode. So this was a good purchase.
