World of Warcrat, here I come!

I bought World of Warcraft today.

I decided to get it because I had some spare change and I needed something to do. Now that I'm in college, I understand how boring it is when there is absolutely nothing to do. So I said "OMG! MY SCHOOL'S STORE HAS WARCRAFT!" in my head and I left.

Once I returned with the copy and a pack of index cards, I popped the disk in. I didn't know I needed a credit or debit card. Now I have to wait for my card to come in. This is just great. Just f**king great.

360 Slimming Up Their Elite Prices

Microsoft has laid the smack down on Sony today, who just recently announced their new model of the Playstation 3, PS3 Slim.

An ad from Walmart was spotted revealing Microsoft's kick in the face to Sony; An Xbox 360 Elite priced at $299. $299 is the same price as the upcoming PS3 Slim, coming out around the end of this summer.

This is just another ass-whooping from Microsoft to Sony in the console war. How will Sont retaliate? A Playstation that can whisper sweet nothings in my ear, give a great massage and whip-up an awesome Pina Collada? Maybe that's just me dreaming.

I am a Gamer

I will state it now, even though I think I should of stated it earlier. I am a gamer.

There are two kinds of gamers. There are the gamers that play games for fun and enjoyment with their families and there are the gamers that play for honor and sport. I am the later.

I've owned a number of systems in my life starting with the super nintendo. Now I'm up to the Nintendo DS Lite. I had an Xbox 360, but it perished and I'm trying to earn the funds to get a new one.

Hardcore Gamer, I am. Tech Nerd, I am.

Facebook reign over the internet has begun!

Facebook recently bought friendfeed, a social networking site where one can create a news feed out of their friend's updates from Facebook, Google and Twitter.

They also recently added a search function to the site that allows a reader to search for specific information, like news updates, through the web and their own friends.

An idea scurrying around is that Facebook might just be trying to step their A-game up in the social networking world, even finding its way up to the popularity that Twitter flocks with.

Another implied thought is that Facebook is trying to beat its way into a future search engine or none-the-less, become a Google clone of some kind, like a kid admiring a hero so much he would dress up like him to a comparable extent.

What the hell was Nintendo thinking when they were patenting this idea?


A Euorpean Nintendo patent was revealed recently that just made me think so negative, its horrible.

The patent is a game where you ride horses, dolphins or gryphon's using this contraption that is an inflatable cushion that you stick your Wiimote in.

Its a horrible picture that just leaves me with my head down in shame of what Nintendo has done to my brain.

I didn't think building a PC was that difficult...mistake one.

I've decided to take on a task. A special task that many have done or failed.

Making a PC from scratch.

After my laptop became unsuable for a time, it may be saved now, I started using my mom's PC she uses every now and then. The machine is slow and a terror for a blogger like myself. It shut down on my when I do certian posts or play music and do various things at once because of over-heating.

The computer made me hit the breaking point and then it happened! I gained the brilliant idea of creating my own PC from scratch. I've been reading up on different how-to's for making a PC and I have to say, I am a little terrified at tall the details stated, but I know I can do it...hopefully.

iTunes 9 may have Blu-ray support and app organizing, along with s

Yesterday, The Boy Genius Report posted a story that when I first read the post's title, I was a little skeptical.

They state that they have a "pretty reliable source" who told them about three features in Apple iTunes 9, which doesn't have a public release date at the moment.

One feature is Blu-ray support. This feature can be held potentially true because apple is apparently integrating Blu-ray into their future iMac line-up, as stated by Apple Insider.

The next feature is the implication of app organizing and arranging for the iPhone and iTouch.

The last, but not least, feature posted was an unknown mix between Twitter, Facebook and Last.Fm. Boy Genius states a good idea that the three can probably be used to post what one may be listening to at that moment.
