Randy abd Evi Quaid Insane?- ez

Randy and Evi Quaid were arrested in Vancouver for missing a felony vandalism hearing last Thursday. They left California for Canada that weak. Neither they nor their lawyer would provide any further information. Randy and Evi Quaid are being held in Canada but will be returned to the U.S. for their hearing next Thursday. The Quaids had planned to apply for Canadian citizenship. Evi Quaid begged the Canadian immigration officers to allow them to stay in Canada. Evi says that some people are out to kill Hollywood celebrities. She claims that their friends David Carradine and Heath Ledger were murdered, and was afraid to be murdered next. David Carradine was found dead hanging from a rope, and Heath Ledger was found dead from taking an overdose. Brian Tsuji, the Quaid’s lawyer, is requesting mental help for the Quaids. The Quaids faces no charges in Canada. The Quaids were charged for illegally living on land that didn’t belong to them. They were also charged for causing $5000 in damage to a guest house. As you can see, the Quaids are not what you would call normal. They have committed numerous crimes. This doesn’t make them seem entirely sane. Their fate remains unknown. But think, what a great movie could be made out of this event.

New Wii Red Edition Console RR

Theres going to be a new Wii red edition console, you should get it as fast as possible if you want to get it, because its only available in stores for some time. The New Red Edition Console would have Red Wii console, and the Red wii Remote Plus, and a Red Nunchuk, and Wii sports and New Super Mario Bros wii game pack, this haves a lot stuff and this is a good deal, because it includes all kind of stuff that are pretty cool. The New Red Edition Console would cost mostly in stores 200$, like it would cost 200$ in Target, Waltmart, and Gamestop. You could Pre-Order the console in stores and get a better deal for the game, because in Walmart you could a gift card of more than 20$ for Pre-ordering the game, and in Target it's the same thing if you Pre-Order, but a bit diffrent, and in GameStop if you Pre-Order it you could get like something that wasn't included in the Product that has to do with game like for example this New wii console involves Mario Bros then you by chance if you Pre-Order it could get like a Action figure of Mario Bros. This game is pretty cool , and if you want a game then this game would be a cool game to buy.

You could get one here and Pre-order it!!
here: Walmart      here: Best Buy

Facebook Apps Leaking Info?-AGX

In the Wall Street Journal an article appeared that said that our privacy on facebook is at risk through the apps.  according to the journal when you use a Facebook app like Farmville and Texas Hold 'em it sends your Facebook ID to companies or whoever is smart enough to be able to access it. This violates Facebook's privacy rules. Facebook has taken drastic steps to stop this by freezing some of the apps making users unable to use or download them. Some groups like RapLeaf have gotten this info. They have not only hooked this up to their database, but sold this data to other companies.


As a fairly new facebook user this doesn’t really affect me. I don’t really use the apps and don’t spend the hours glued to a screen instead of talking to people face to face.I think about the massive number of facebook users that use apps and realize that those companies could be compiling up to a small countries population of raw data. That's thousands if not millions of little bits of data which gives access to an email which could mean even more spam in our inboxes. All this has convinced me to be even more careful of my facebook and keep to people I know.

Morrison Digital Trumpet-M&M



The Morrison Digital Trumpet runs for about $2,495. It is very expensive but totally worth it. It's like an electronic piano. In the sense that you can change the sound and pitch at the touch of a button. There are eight buttons on the left side of the trumpet that each make it go up a half an octave. Unlike the real thing you don't need to move your lips at all, all you need to do is blow. The right hand is used for pushing the buttons for the fingerings and the hole in the back holds a trigger which is used for your vibrato. You plug the trumpet into the VL70-m adapter and you can change the sound to any possible musical instrument in the world. The trumpet can play over 10 and a half octaves. The battery pack for this instrument itself is worth $99 US. Don't expect to see this valued object on eBay very often the fact that this advancement in instruments is almost 2500 dollars is a fact that the buyer might want to hold onto it. And the instrument is only available from select sellers so look hard and look good because if you shop right you can have a custom Morrison Digital Trumpet.

Halo Reach: Updates-AGX

Halo Reach is the latest and currently last game in the Halo franchise, but just because the game is out doesn't mean that the developer Bungie is going to "Sit on its hands." Bungie has implemented some changes to their latest game.
1. On areana Zealot bungie has added a return to battle field  to fix a camping issue.
2. On the gametypes Oddball and Territories they have replaced the dropshield armor ability with the Evade ability for the reason check out this Inside Gaming.
3. SWAT (no shields, headshot=instant kill) playlist has been removed from the slayer playlist and has been given its own home.
4. Boardwalk has been removed from the gametype doubles areana.
5. There is no longer a Scorpion Tank on the map Hemorrage.

Now onto the major update. Bungie has announced its first bit of downloadable content. The Noble map pack will unlock three maps Tempes, Anchor 9, and Break Point. This pack will cost you 800 microsoft points and will be coming out november 30th (Ask for it at Christmas, Hannukah, or whatever holiday you celebrate.)

I think Bungie has done a great job with these changes especially the evade change. Bungie's tenacity to make a good quality game is always a pleasure to play and a good way to build with community. I can't wait to see what the Noble pack has in store and to see how the halo community responds. Halo has proven to be a game that stands the test of time and this one looks like it's going to last a while.

Smartphone 4G Hype?- ez


Woohoo!!! Smartphones with 4G wireless are coming out!!! (backtrack) Wait a minute… Do you really need it? The wireless giants (At&t, Sprint, Verizon, Cricket, etc.) have decided to launch a new line up of new smartphones along with 4G plans.
            Most people that buy the 4G plans don’t need the power. “You can get wifi on any device near your phone.” Some people will argue. And, yes it will deliver broadband speeds to your phone which will range between 3-10 mbps allowing you to load and download videos and music simultaneously. This is more powerful than most DSL and cables, while 3G networks can only compete with a slow- medium DSL connection. It sounds good right? Well, think again.
            Here’s the catch. You’ll need to get a new phone to be able to use 4G networks. You’ll have a large variety to choose from. Service providers have released expensive phone line ups. The bottom line phone is in the $100’s range. Ok… it’s still not much. But, to top that the 4G service will cost you $10 a month extra. The price is fair, but here is the final catch. To use it as a wireless hotspot will cost you $30 a month. With the phone service this will cost you $150 range!!! You could get a decent car with costs that much.
            The average person doesn’t have the money to pay that much for the service and most won’t need it unless they own a business or something. The prices may drop, but until then think twice before you switch to 4G.

Incoming 3-D gaming-M&M




Playstation 3 is one of the first systems to recieve this capability. The update to 3-D is going to be put over the playstation network and you use it as a regular update but may take longer than a few minutes. The data for the update is going to be shown as a firmware update. There are going to be two firmware updates. One is going to bring the ps3 up to the right format and the second firmware update is going to be for the gaming changes. Some of the first 3-D games are going to be MotorStorm 3D Rift, WipEout HD, Killzone 3, and MotorStorm Apocalypse.  Since the ps3 is capable of playing movies they are able to play 3D movies. But not all the 3D formats for movies are going to be able to work on the ps3. Sony said that they are still working out some of the programing kinks and the update for changes should be coming out soon. Even if you have a ps3 that is compatible with 3D you still need to have a 3D tv and the glasses for it to show up in 3D.

movie: 30 days of night dark days RR

I saw the new movie 30 days of night dark days like a few days ago, it was kind of good, but it wasn't as good as first movie 30 days of night, because it didn't have that much action as the first one and also 30 days of night dark days wasn't put on theaters, so that doesn't make it look that good. 30 days of night dark days like it continues the story based on first movie, but on end  of the movie the monsters didn't all get killed and also the woman that survived  the attack at end of first movie, she probably died at end of second movie, because she like discovers something and tries it out at end of movie and gets killed, you got to see the movie to find out. This movie was pretty good and it's genre its horror, it seem like horror and suspense. If you are interested in seeing zombie monsters killing people and people fighting back, see the movie. The movie also has new people in it different from first movie, and the movie also has new bad guys and mostly the events in movie mostly occur in city different from first movie which first movie events mostly happen in a small town in Alaska. If you seeing this movie and want to see another horror movie, you could see resident evil after life that's a horror movie with zombies killing people, and it does have action and suspense on it. 30 days of night dark days was a pretty well movie in my opinion.

Windows 7 Phones and Xbox ft. U-Verse- eZ

Hot!!! Xbox and Phone people, here comes something that you all have been waiting for! Move over set top boxes. Xbox users can throw out their old set- top boxes because now AT&T announced that you can get u-verse programs through the u-verse converter. AT&T also announced that Windows 7 phones now come with u-verse preinstalled. So, now you basically could watch TV anywhere through your phone or Xbox. Xbox people can now get live programming, watch on demand videos, and watch stuff you recorded on your Xbox DVR. This will most likely boost Windows 7 phone and Xbox sales. Even though Xboxes have hard drives, AT&T has decided to not grant Xbox users the ability to record TV on their Xbox. This is most likely because AT&T doesn't want people replacing their DVR in favor of using their Xbox (which is understandable). Iphones and Blackberry Torches can access Disney and Discovery owned TV shows for free. These include ESPN and other sport channels, the Discovery channel, the Disney channel, ABC, and Animal Planet if they are u- verse subscribers. Windows 7 users can watch shows anywhere they want even if they don’t have u- verse at home. They have to pay $10 a month to do so. They Windows 7 Phone policy is already in place. The Xbox policy will start on Friday. So heads up!!!   

Dead Space 2 RR

I heard that theres going to be a new game that is based off Dead Space, and this new game is like going to continue the story of dead space and is going to be like the same story, but its going to continue it in diffrent environment, because in Dead space the game was like in a spaceship that was called isthmura and you were trapped and you came there when ship got overrun already, but this time in dead space 2 you'll actually be there when the area where you are gets overrun by hostiles, the hostiles are like Necromorphs they like reanimate dead corpses in game!! , Dead space 2 is coming out next year 2011, like in early January, i think im going to buy it when it comes out or play the demo.I have both dead space and dead space extraction and dead space extraction what i didn't like is that character in that game you couldn't control and you could only control where he shoots, and in dead space it was kind of good, but the controls were a bit tricky for me, because when Necromorphs attack me from back in game they always killed me and it always made me tick off, Dead space  2 might be better than this games.

Halo Movie coming out?-AGX

It has been rumored by Machinima.com that Dreamworks has picked up the rights for a Halo Movie. This was actually attempted some time ago, but after a 12 million dollar investment went nowhere. In the latest Inside Gaming The Dead Pixel confirmed that the movie will be based off of the books such as the Fall of Reach and not the famous gaming franchise. He also shakily confirmed that Steven Spielburg will be involved with the project. It will show the origins of John-117 (Master Chief) and the Spartan-IIs.

I like the idea of this, but I'm afraid that the movie will not attracts anyone else except fans that are already into the Halo series. I personally picked up Fall of Reach once when I was waiting for my sister to get out of a guitar lesson and actually found it to have a good plot and be well written. This was actually my first interaction with the Halo franchise and have been a fan ever since. I wonder how good the screen adaptation will be though. I have a fear that the movie will end up like Transformers (without Megan Fox) a movie that will be watched more for the special effects and not the plot line. We certainly have the capability to produce eye-dazzling special effects, but I'm afraid that the in the glamor that the intricate plot will be lost. I'm crossing my fingers for this to be a success.

Types of Machinima-AGX *remastered*





1. This is a picture of chief from the IRL/Machinima Arby 'n' the Chief. It features two Halo action figures usually complaining about something in the gaming world. This usually leads to antics that are not very appropriate for younger ages, but are hilarious none the less. In this original hybrid, some parts of the show are shown as the two figures getting moved around by the creator John CJG. Other parts are in a game usually Halo 3.
2. Certain Machinimas are just videos of the game itself like a campaign walkthrough or a multiplayer match like the one above from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
3. There are two ways of recording Machinima on two different mediums. On the consoles like Wii, PS3, or Xbox 360 you need to use a piece of technology known as a capture card which records what is going on on the game. On PC there are a variety of programs that allow you to do screen capture. Some examples are Hypercam, Camstudio, or Fraps. This is an example of screen capture on the MMORPG Runescape.
4. Red vs. Blue is a Machinima that has been repeatedly praised for its comedic genius. This Machinima which has been going on for seven years spanning over 8 seasons, is produces solely in the Halo franchise (with the exception of a few scenes from the Marathon series.) It has lately been one of the first Machinimas to utilize motion capture (For an example go to Redvsblue.com look up season 8 episode 10.) The writers at Rooster Teeth are going strong and will hopefully go on in the future.
5. Inside Gaming is a Machinima that is made twice a week and shows the latest in the gaming industry. The host The Dead Pixel combines funny jokes with the latest news in gaming. When his avatar is on screen it is usually shown in the game Halo 3, but now is reporting from the game Halo: Reach.

The latest on kinect-M&M

Kinect is for the xbox 360 only. It's microsofts latest in physical gaming. The kinect allows you to browse through the menu using your body and you participate in games that are similar to things you would do with the wii controllers. One of the first games that will be coming out for the kinect would be the kinect sports that will resemble the wii sports package a lot. Adventures kinect will be a game coming out not long or with the kinect. It will consist of games that will involve physical challenges that give you both exercise and entertainment for most ages. MTV announced that they will be coming out with a title called Dance Center. They have not released any major details yet but I can only assume that it will involve an dance program. You may know the kinect as project natal because that was the original name of the project but during production of the kinect it was changed. You can purchase the kinect on its own but you can also purchase the set. Some reviewers say that it will not do as well it's assumed to be. They say that with the body it will not be complicated and that gamers that get serious will not appreciate because they are systems that have elaborate controllers that can do advanced movements and that would be just to complicated for the system. They also say that usually people game when they are to tired to do much else and jumping around and movingly like you'd need for the kinect would contain to much for some players.
