ME LIKEY...

NEC 43 INCH CURVED LCD MONITOR: Editing and playing video games would never be the same!!


REEBOK EX-O-FIT: I know, they look like Yeezy's, but I need a pair of space boot looking kicks to kick around. This should be available in stores now.


INCASE NYLON BACKPACK: It's about that time that I need to update my backpack. It's black and has a lot of compartments.. what more can I say?

MICROSOFT PROJECT NATAL

This right here is the future. I really didn't get into the Wii thing, but this actually looks good. I'll wait for the reviews before I bust a hole through my wallet.

ADS FOR STAR WARS WEEKENDS

You know about me and my Star Wars? This is ill! Might have to take some time off for this. It goes on from May 22nd until June 14th at Disney's Hollywood Studios!

GEARS OF WAR II

I've been in the slow with the posts, but still have to share my nerdiness whenever as possible. I picked up Gears of War II, by Epic Games, the morning it was released. It's a great game, but Halo still blows it out of the water. The graphics and animation is still far superior than most games, however thought that they could of done more with it. For those in the slow, “Gears of War 2,” a shooter game, is the sequel to “Gears of War,” one of the most popular titles for the Xbox 360. Gears of War 2 continues the story of Marcus Fenix and Delta Squad, locked in an increasingly desperate battle against the nightmarish Locust Horde for the survival of humanity. WORD!

MARC ECKO "REAL TROOPER" HOODIE + STAR WARS "FORCE UNLEASHED" FOLLOW UP

Marc Ecko continues the Star Wars collection with the "REAL TROOPER" hoodie for the Fall line up. This was bound to happen and glad to see it available now. Zip-front hoodie features “Storm Trooper” body and the hood looks like a mask. I'm going to buy 30 of them for my friends and have them wear it when we go out while I'm in my Darth Vader mask.




I've been meaning to post about my experiences with Star War's "Force Unleashed" video game, but got caught up with this weekends festivities. I like the concept and story behind this game. It starts off you being Darth Vader attacking a Wookie village, in search of a Jedi in exile. Once after destroying the village and snapping the neck off of the Jedi, Vader then adopts the fallen Jedi's son. It's like the real story of how Angelina Jolie met Maddox. Later you become the son, now apprentice of Vader, and carry out missions for him. All in all I finished the game in 3 days (3-4 hours at a time), on regular mode. Next week I'll try it on Sith level and see how many more days that I'll waste on completing the game. Anything to get the closest thing to becoming a Jedi.

STAR WARS FORCE UNLEASHED

Star Wars Force Unleashed: is released today (September 16th). Gona pick this up and nerd out for a few weeks. See you all in a month.

GRAND THEFT AUTO 4

I know that I'm a bit late, but I after hearing all positive reviews, I had to cop it. I haven't had the chance to really nerd out and play for a straight 6 hours, but the intro was already insane! It's like watching a high budgeted movie. Kudos to the people from Rock Star, a well put together game. I figure that next week I'll be able to lose myself once again in this video game world. It'll keep me from going out and save money...... until I get bored of it.

TRON GETS "SWEDED" / WIZARD TV

For those who have watched "BE KIND AND REWIND" will get what SWEDED means. Here's a SWEDE version of Tron.


Funny sh#t!

ARMY OF 2

A few days ago my cousin introduced me to a game that his company suited for. I forget what EA got his company to do, but it's a fun game to play. If you're into first person shooter games, then this one is a must have.
