Halo 3: ODST 4

Let’s Not Forget About Halo 3: ODST

2 Comments

Halo 3: ODST, initially called Halo 3: Recon, was intended to be a PC style expansion pack for Halo 3. But during it’s development, the game evolved into a full-fledged package worthy of a standard retail game’s price tag. If you’re a fan of the Halo series and enjoy the fictional lore, Halo 3: ODST is a no-brainer.

Downloading TV Shows – There Has to Be an Easier Way

85 Comments

When it comes to watching television shows, lots has changed over the years. For the most part, we’ve had a way of recording shows and watching them later. For a long time, a VCR was our best bet. Now we have PVRs, on demand channels, digital distribution services, and more manual avenues like downloading via BitTorrent or Usenet. Personally, I’ve tried all of the above and settled on the latter – Usenet. While it involves the most effort on my part, the end result is exactly what I’m after. But after mentioning my desire…

What I’m Playing, What I’m Not and What Will Have to Wait

Just after this year’s E3, I wrote about all the great games that are coming out by the end of this year and broke them down into two lists. Games I will most likely buy and others that I’m on the fence about. The year isn’t up yet and we’re actually in the calm before the storm at this point in time. But I don’t know about you, I’m feeling the pinch and having a hard time getting all the gaming in that I’d like to. I’ve already put a few games on the back-burner…

No E3 ‘07 Reflections From Me

Last year I wrote at length on the hardware and software Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony’s brought to the event. But, I’ve decided to skip this year. I really didn’t see a whole lot that impressed me. I feel re-assured that the Xbox 360 is the platform with the most promise, both now and in future, but Nintendo and Sony really failed to impress me yet again. So much so, that…

Battlestar Galactica is the Best TV Series Ever

First of all, if you’re snickering to yourself and about to leave an inflammatory comment, go and rent the first disc of season 1 (which is actually the miniseries) then come back and talk to me. Now that we’ve got that out of the way, how fucking incredible was this week’s episode (3×04, Exodus Part 2)? I’ve watched up until the end of Season 2 with my wife at least 3 times in its entirety and we thought we had seen “the best episode” a few times already. Well, I do believe Exodus Part 2 takes that crown, at least for now. For those that haven’t seen it or aren’t up to speed in Season 3, there are serious spoilers ahead. You’ve been warned.
