It’s time to ROCK! How we got Rock Band, and what’s to come.
I’ve been crazy excited about Rock Band ever since it was announced. Even after hearing about how tons of people’s guitars/drums were breaking after a few hours, I just had to get it; largely because relatives were over for the holidays, and I wanted to play it with them. I finally got a chance to…
Karaoke Revolution video: “I Believe in a Thing Called Love” EXPERT
Karaoke Revolution 2, “I Believe in a Thing Called Love” by The Darkness. Sung by my friend Amber, on Expert. Platinum Record score (23954), full combo. Game vocals are off, so the only voice you hear is hers. As I wrote at the end of the video, this was her first try, and the game…
Some Thoughts on TimeShift
I had been looking forward to TimeShift for a while, but getting closer to release my excitement had been waning a bit. People sounded a bit unimpressed, the time powers weren’t really as interesting as they first seemed, and the delays meant it was no longer as groundbreaking as it may have been. I was…
Rock Band (PS2 version) bundle for $150, shipped! [DEAD]
For any of you who have current gen consoles (360/PS3), you’ll probably want to get those versions of Rock Band so you can take advantage of the downloadable content (of which there will be TONS). However, I still don’t have a 360 in my room yet (we have one downstairs in our living room), so…
Download: Weezer – The Blue Album (DTX files for Drummania)
Someone posted this rar file on another site, but the link was dead. So after searching around, and not being able to find it, someone sent it to me (thanks, avjgtfusion!). If you play Drummania on your PC (DTXMania), and you like Weezer, this is for you. Most of the songs are pretty easy. They’re…
Second Life: “Burning Life” going on RIGHT NOW!
Forget everything you’ve heard about Second Life (SL), if you’ve never tried it. Two years ago I joined (and this was back when you had to PAY to join!), after seeing the Burning Life 2004 video (embedded below). Burning Life (BL) is the Second Life version of Burning Man, and it is the reason you…
Quick Review: “The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay” (Xbox)
I’ve had this game sitting on my shelf for over a year. With the remake coming out, I figured I’d at least throw it in and play for a little bit, and then wait for the remake to actually finish the game. Well, guess what? I got hooked on it. Finally I checked online to…
CRG mentioned in NGamer magazine! Twice! (scans)
A while back KieranMcClung commented that my Donkey Konga video was in NGamer magazine. I finally got some issues, so I took some pics. NGamer is a fairly new UK Nintendo magazine (and, might I say, a pretty damn cool one. I’d get a subscription if I could). Some months they do a list of…
How my Nintendo DS helped us change a tire
It was 3 am this morning, and we were at a friend’s house. Some people were hungry, so three of us decided to go drive over to a fast food restaurant. I just went along for the ride. Well, this quick trip to get food resulted in some wrong turns, and getting pulled over for…
Hardware Review: Thylus (DS thumb stylus)
Update: Since posting this review, I created a promo video for Thylus. —— The Thylus is a thumb stylus designed for PDAs, Nintendo DSs, and other touch screen devices. The makers were nice enough to send us a few to test out. We tested them on a DS, DS Lite, and many different games.
