This game is one of the best and worst I've ever played. 
It is funny. Parody funny. Some of the quotes and stuff may not be that great out of context, but when you're playing the game and he comes out with this stuff, it gets me to laugh out loud....paraphrasing: "Yeah, keep pulling the trigger. That'll reload the gun." "This game would be a lot easier if I could jump." "Excuse me, I have to go earn the Beat Walley Wesley with My Bare Hands Trophy." "I'm an action hero, not a standing around hero." "Yippie-kay-yay mother...oops can't say that." And there's enough that only one or two of the phrases get old. Plus the load screens are beautifully sarcastic.
The voice acting is outstanding. Not sure who plays Matt Hazard, but QA, Wally Wessley (Neil Patrick Harris) and others... [Read More]

Not having seen any commercials, or read anything about it (after all, I don't watch cable), my friend decided to take me to see a movie for my birthday. When I heard the price of the movie tickets, I was astounded. $23 for two tickets! Had the economy really gotten that bad, that we have to pay that kind of price? Then I found out, the extra $3.50 was actually for a pair of glasses. I groaned, realizing quickly what it was. The 3D gimmick.
I wear a pair of leanses on my eyes most of the time. Legally, I can't drive without them. I can't read small print text beyond a certain distance. And I definitely can't focus on a movie screen, even if it's a theatre screen, without wearing them. So I was forced to wear two pairs of glasses. I was pretty much getting a little irritable at this point, because I felt (and probably looked) silly. Not a good mood to be in to watch a movie.
After the usual commercials played, the theatre decided to put up a... [Read More]

I recently purchased a video card by ATI. I have in the past avoided ATI products, as they've always led me to some conclusion that made me utterly loathe the product I had acquired. And this has been no exception. Thankfully this time I'm going to return it.
The first thing about the box is, it tells us that it has "512MB of GDDR2 Memory," which it does not. I was a little intrigued by the high requirements of 1gb for this monstrosity. And when I plugged it in and finished installing it, I was flabbergasted at "1.7gb of video memory." I looked up the info in the Catalyst and it told me this was possible through "HyperMemory" which sounds like very advanced RAM chips.
What the box fails to say is, the card itself actually only has somewhere between 128mb and 256mb of video memory. The "512mb" this card boasts is actually SYSTEM MEMORY. That's right, it requires 1gb of physical RAM so that it can use no less... [Read More]
