On March 30th, Modern Warfare 2 fans will be able to purchase a new MW2 map pack on XBL to cure their case of ‘mapathy.‘ What is mapathy you ask?

(mapathy.com)

The first two map packs for Modern Warfare 2 will be released exclusively for the Xbox 360 & for only a month. PS3 and PC players should expect the first map pack at the end of April or in early May.

The Future Is Here and it Brings JET PACKS! [4 comments]

March 9, 2010

jetpack

You guys, I almost peed my pants when I saw the video of this thing flying. JET PACKS! SERIOUSLY! And only $90,000. I don’t need a house or car, I’ll live in the sky.

Take a look at the site here.

And it gets better: You can be a Test Pilot! If only I could get to New Zealand and have (what I assume will be) a large amount of money.

My only concern about this model: Where do I put my groceries after a quick flight to the store?

Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta Trailer Will Give You A Heart Attack [4 comments]

March 3, 2010

Let me first start off by saying JETPACKS and ASSASSINATIONS! Holy mother of Anakin. As if I wasn’t already excited about Halo: Reach before, I’m now about 2-steps away from jacking some Seattle college n00b’s Vespa and riding it all the way to Kirkland, WA to find Bungie Studios. I want the Beta and I want it RIGHT NOW!

Can you wait til May, 3rd?

The 72 Hour NewEgg Sale [Add a comment]

February 26, 2010

GAHH! It’s already half way over and I have barely even glanced at it!

All I know is that I need a small, new LCD monitor and the Samsung 18.5″ on the NewEgg is $169.99. $70 bucks off feels like a deal, but I don’t know if I have enough time to make a decision! ALL THIS PRESSURE! I hate how long it takes me to go through with this stuff, I always have to shop around and read reviews and be 100% sure that I’ll be happy, then reconsider again and blah blah blah… Dang it. Maybe next year.

The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile [Add a comment]

February 25, 2010

No, this is not about Robert Pattinson happily smiling at you while doing your dishes, so all you Twilighter idiots can go hyperventilate someplace else!

The gnarly, 2-D side-scroller ‘The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai‘ was a violent blood bath fest on XBLA. For some reason I never brought myself to play it. Despite the fact that my list of games to play is more or less turning into a 5ft long pirate’s scroll, (YEEAARGH!) I’m extremely motivated to play it now that Ska Studios has released the trailer for its sequel ‘The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile.’


Looks insane! :D

Xbox Live on the Windows Phone 7 Series [2 comments]

February 15, 2010

First things first, Happy President’s Day! This day means so much to me! Being a person who works on holidays, I can finally find easy parking and get to work with no Seattle traffic. Amazing! What a joyus day! (What fore-fathers? Abe & George, who?)

Now back to the important stuff, Microsoft displayed and announced the Windows Phone 7 Series, a phone that has been long awaited by Microsoft/Window’s fans since the iPhone’s release 3 years ago. If you havent checked it out or watched the video yet, click here!

Feeling like I now live in the stone age with my touchscreen-less, no internet, scotch-tape enhanced, Blackberry Pearl that I purchased over 5 years ago, I feel like its finally time to step out of my comfort zone and consider a new phone. But now for the real question, which direction do I go? The Apple iPhone? Google’s Nexus 1? And now that the Windows Phone 7 Series is thrown into the mix, (-P.S. what kind of name is that?) this is a big decision to make!

Being someone who is definitely in between the Apple vs. Microsoft war, simple decisions have become extremely complicated with all the choices & conflicting limitations from both sides. Which products will work with this & that, who has what and which one works better, it’s a constant battle that must be settled with one solution: GIMMIE ONE!


Now here is something that sparkled my eye about the Windows Phone 7 Series. It will have Xbox Live. (Its going to have touchscreen! It’s going to have Windows! And it’s going to have XBOX LIVE! BIYAAAAAAAAAH! -Howard Dean) “But theres already a bajillion different games for mobile devices and some phones can already connect to XBL through certain applications!” So what does this really mean? Here’s what Microsoft’s said:

“Games—This hub delivers the first and only official Xbox LIVE experience on a phone, including Xbox LIVE games, Spotlight feed and the ability to see a gamer’s avatar, Achievements and gamer profile. With more than 23 million active members around the world, Xbox LIVE unlocks a world of friends, games and entertainment on Xbox 360, and now also on Windows Phone 7 Series.”

I’m excited to see what the Windows Phone 7 Series has in store. I might not wait til the 2010 holiday season to purchase a new phone, but at least I’m happy to be looking forward to one! What do you guys think about the Windows Phone 7 Series?
