Family Guy does something funny???

I usually can't stand this show but I have to admit this is just great. I'm sure most of you have seen this but I can't help but throw it on here.

Dark Knight Breaks 1 Billion

Warner Bros. announced Friday that "The Dark Knight" has crossed the $1 billion mark in worldwide revenues, making it the fourth highest gossing film worldwide. It's a well deserved accomplishment. I can't see it moving up and becoming the third highest grossing movie worldwide. The movie is out of theaters and has already hit dvd, but I would love to see it happen.

What your missing

It's been 2 months since the last blog post. I'm looking to change that with daily updates. The first being this. Something I plan to do is let you know what is really good in movies music and TV and tell you your missing it if you haven't checked it out.

This week on what your missing is Battlestar Galactica. I just recently got into this show. I never watched it because I have never been a fan of Star Trek and thought that this show was no different. I couldn't be more wrong.I am terrible at explaining what shows are about so I thank wiki for this:

Battlestar Galactica continues from the 2003 mini-series to chronicle the journey of the last surviving humans from the Twelve Colonies of Kobol after their nuclear annihilation by the Cylons. The survivors are led by President Laura Roslin and Commander William Adama in a ragtag fleet of ships with the Battlestar Galactica, an old but powerful warship, as its command ship. Pursued by Cylons intent on wiping out the remnants of the human race, the survivors travel across the galaxy looking for the fabled and long-lost thirteenth colony: Earth.

Unlike most space-based series, Battlestar Galactica has no aliens (apart from the man-made Cylon robots) and intentionally avoids technobabble


It really is a show you need to watch and if your not watching then you are truly missing out.

Free Stuff From The Web!!!...

First post in over a month! From me at least.....

The other day I stumbled upon something on the internet that I thought I would pass around to the handful of random visitors we get here on the blog.

Are you a Halo fan? Are you an old school Super Metroid fan? Have you ever wanted to see what would happen if Samus's gameplay and Master Chief's universe got smashed together?

If you answered yes to any of this, you are a huge nerd (Hey, I am too), but I am also about to make your wish come true. If you haven't seen this already that is.

Released about 2 years ago, Halo Zero Takes place before the events of Halo: combat evolved on the Original Xbox. Im not really an expert on the Halo mythos, so Im not sure exactly how long before the first game these events are. All I know is the gameplay works well.

A simple 2d sidescroller in the same vein as Super Metroid, Halo Zero's controls are mapped to your keyboard, and can be remapped in any configuration to suit your liking. Controls include a primary attack (gun), Left and right movement, Jumping and crouching, melee attacking, grenade throwing, as well as switching between grenade types (Plasma "sticky grenades" or Normal grenades) and weapon types. Weapons in the game, are the iconic weapons featured in the original Halo, and include; the pistol, assault rifle, sniper rifle, rocket launcher, plasma pistol, plasma rifle, shotgun, needler, and the energy sword. Aiming is done via mouse by means of on-screen crosshairs. Enemies included in the game are; Covenant grunts, elites, hunters, banshee's, and jackles. Health is managed in much the same way as the console versions, including the regenerating shield that recharges when your not taking damage.

Overall, not much to complain about here. The only real knock I have is the game's length, but considering its a fan made game have to understand why its not a hours long epic Halo game. Very well put togther.

Positives
Well made for a Fan game.
Decent graphics.
Music and sounds from the Original Halo
2 Warthog Driving levels!

Negatives
Short! will take you less than an hour the beat.


Head on over to The Official Halo Zero page to check it out for yourself. Its a free download and worth a try. They even seem to be working on Halo Zero 2!

Enjoy some screens I took....

Snake?? SNAKE!!!!!!!!!

So the whole reason I bought a PS3 was for Metal Gear Solid 4 and the Blu-Ray. Now I find out that Little Big Planet is doing a special MGS4 update. This looks like it will be so much fun, and the best part is the user created levels will be much more authentic with real music, backgrounds, and objects. Most importantly playing as Snake is going to be great. I don't know if we will have to pay for it but if we need to it will be money well spent. I haven't heard a release date yet but I will post it when I find out.
