Bad Idea..

December 27th, 2005 · No Comments

I like cars. I like car shows. I like shows about cars. It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of the Top Gear show on the BBC. Those guys are exactly what I would expect car fans doing a TV show would be like. Car and Driver is a good show but it’s not [...]

December 21st, 2005 · No Comments

Xbox 3 shitty

December 15th, 2005 · No Comments

While I’ve not had any of the issues this guy brings up, I can see his frustration. I also believed that for 400 bucks this “Next Gen” console should be easy and it should seemlessly fit into my entertainment setup and it shouldn’t have a power brick the size of the console itself.
Fan letter [...]

December 11th, 2005 · No Comments

Finally all the pieces of the XBox 360 puzzle have been complete.

XBox 360
Wireless Adapter
20gb Harddrive
2 Wired controllers ( since wireless controllers require a play and charge kit, I’d leave them connected anyway).

The Harddrive is a must really. The memory cards are really not good at holding all the content that is availible on the [...]
