Brothers in Arms Hell’s Highway is Gearbox’s new World War 2 first person shooter. This is the most impressive looking World War 2 shooter I have seen since Call of Duty (the first release).
The physics look amazing and it seems very realistic.
Check out the trailer:
I’ve been a fan of the Reno 911! tv show since its debut on Comedy Central. I thought the show was great from the first episode on and when I heard they were making a movie, I’m not going to lie, I didn’t jump out of my seat. It’s hard to make a good movie out of a tv show, especially a comedy. Nonetheless, I knew that I would get around to seeing it. Which I did, this past Saturday.
There are alot of funny parts in the movie, but many of them you have probably already seen in the trailer. What you probably didn’t see (or hear for that matter) is all of the vulgarity in this movie. I guess having to censor the language on tv must be hard for the Reno 911! writers because the movie was full of it. I’m not complaining about that at all though, there was definitely some hilarious stuff that was heard and seen in the film that couldn’t be done on tv. Especially the scene at the motel in the beginning when you see almost every officer whacking off.
I didn’t expect much from this movie so I wasn’t completely disappointed. If you are a Reno 911! fan, I wouldn’t even bother to say “Oh my God you have to see it”. It’s definitely possible to wait for Miami to come out DVD/Blu Ray. In the end, Reno 911!: Miami had its very funny parts and it also had its recycled/intensified tv skits that you’ve most likely already seen.
When I was between the ages of 5 and 12, hockey was my game. I still remember seeing my first ever hockey game on TV between the New York Rangers and the New Jersey Devils, and asking my dad who he was rooting for. Being from New York, he told me to root for the blue team, the Rangers. I started playing ice hockey about a year later after becoming completely obsessed with the sport which I then played for about three years until it became too expensive for my family. I then turned to roller hockey for a few years. After a few seasons of roller hockey, I got burnt out of the sport and almost completely forgot about it until recently.
I’ve been following hockey recently and I know that there have been some major changes made to the game since the strike two years ago. The ‘acceptance’ of fighting is one of those changes and fighting on the ice has apparently become an everyday occurrence. I’m pretty sure I see a nice scuffle on ESPN Sports Center at least twice a day.
But last night was absolutely insane.
Chris Neil of the Ottawa Senators drills Chris Drury of the Buffalo Sabres a late hit. Drury gets sent down quick, his helmet comes off and there is some blood spilled. Drew Stafford steps in and him and Neil start exchanging punches.
Buffalo’s coach doesn’t like what he sees happening to Drury and sends out five thugs onto the ice. You can see at the face off, the Sabre’s have no intentions of going after the puck:
What the hell is going on? The goalies are fighting? No one has seen that since like the 1970’s. This has to be the biggest brawl in sports since that pussy Varitek from the Boston Red Sox tried to fight Alex Rodriguez, sparking the Yankees-Red Sox brawl.
I came across this video demonstration of Yahoo! Messenger 8.0 for Windows Vista. It seems like it is going to be pretty cool looking and will fit into Vista’s UI fairly well. There are some new features as well.

I was watching Sports Center this morning and the hockey highlights came on. As soon as I heard the word ‘fight’, I turned around to see what was going on. Apparently the Devils and Rangers were playing a pretty rough game. I saw New Jersey’s goalie, Brodeur, get in Avery’s face and push him after Avery skated into him on accident. Avery then shoved Brodeur and he took a nice spill. Then, Cam Janssen of the New Jersey Devils, started calling out Lundquist of the New York Rangers telling him he was gonna get a beatdown. When Janssen got on the ice, this is what happened:
As you can see, the fight starts off fairly even and then Colton Orr just lands a nice left on Janssen and drops him. That’s what you get for opening your mouth.
Thanks to HockeyFights.com for the video.
Javier Mascherano, the Argentinian mid-fielder, will be leaving West Ham United and teaming up with Liverpool FC. Mascherano has been desperate to leave West Ham almost since his debut in England and hasn’t played in a match with West Ham since October 22.
He will undoubtedly be an asset to Liverpool because he will be in their starting lineup. Mascherano has been cleared to play. Even though he played for the Brazilian team, the Corinthians, and West Ham this past year, FIFA has ruled that he will be eligible for play this season.
Now, I’m wondering what will happen with Tevez, another Argentinian who came with Mascherano to West Ham over the summer.
It seems like West Ham cannot catch a break lately. First they spend some big money to bring these two over and then Tevez and Mascherano basically refuse to play and now they are sending their talent to another club.
When Britney Spears got together with Kevin Federline, I shrugged it off because I know that every girl goes through her ‘bad boy’ stage. I’m not saying that Kevin Federline is bad, in fact, he’s far from it, but he does try to come off hard. K-Fed is more of a misguided, confused, classless, idiot. I’m sorry but a wife beater and a flat brim doesn’t make you gangster.
So as I said, I didn’t think much of it when Britney married him. Then I heard she had gotten pregnant and I started to think maybe this was a more serious relationship than I had anticipated. Wrong. Not even a year after her first child was born she divorces K-Fed and starts hanging out with Paris Hilton, the amateur porn queen. Even then I just assumed she was just trying to have a little fun and maybe even convey a message that single moms can still have fun. I don’t know, maybe not. But that is what it seemed like to me.
Then she starts flashing her cooter all over the place and there are rumors of her having drug abuse problems etc. Where the hell did that come from? Paris Hilton really knows how to ruin lives and it starts by her convincing her friends not to wear underwear in public.
Now Britney goes and pulls this:
Oh my God. Apparently she checked herself into a drug rehab center in Antigua (or some other place like that, I’m sorry I can’t find the exact location), spent a day there, came out, shaved her head, then got a tattoo. I guess one day in drug rehab really does make you cold as ice.
It’s clear that Britney has lost her mind. You have two children. Go home. You shouldn’t be partying until six in the morning with Paris Hilton unless you want to turn up on every porn website on the internet. Something is seriously wrong with this girl and she needs help.
Yeah, I’m 20 years old and I love video games, and I really don’t give a shit who knows.
NBA Street Home Court marks the fourth installment of the NBA Street series, which in my opinion are the best basketball video games ever created. The NBA Live series has sucked for a while now, and the 2K games just don’t do it for me either. To me, I feel like they don’t capture the atmosphere of the NBA very well. It might be just me but seeing players like ‘Melo and D. Wade on some beat up court in a random city just feels more appropriate. You get to show off and pull off moves that you would see in an AND1 mixtape and embarass your friends game after game.
I’ve had the demo for about a week now and the game seems to be coming along pretty nicely. The new moves are amazing and the graphics are obviously on par too. The only thing that I didn’t like thus far is that thye seem to have gotten rid of the ‘trick stick’. All moves have to be done with the ‘Y’ button and ‘RB’ button. I’m not sure if they aren’t planning on implementing the ‘trick stick’ for this release, but I hope they are.
Regardless, this game should be alot of fun. If you haven’t played a Street game, they are a bit more ‘arcadey’ but in my opinion they are alot more fun. The visuals are pretty nice looking too, especially when you get a ‘Game Breaker’.
Once I get the final copy of the game, I’ll be sure to post my impressions then.
I don’t even know if you can classify his comments as homophobic. When I think of the word ‘homophobic’ I think about someone who is just grossed out by two men having sex with each other. Someone who is afraid of dealing with anyone gay in their lives. What Tim Hardaway said is just pure hate.
You know, I hate gay people, so I let it be known, I don’t like gay people and I don’t like to be around gay people. I am homophobic. I don’t like it. It shouldn’t be in the world or in the United States.
I’ve come a long way since high school. I’m sure going to a big university and being exposed to all different kinds of people did some really good things for me. I can understand Hardaway, or any man for that matter, being uncomfortable in a locker room with a homosexual man. But, that’s not all Hardaway said. I’m sure there are thousands of other professional athletes and regular people who feel the same way Hardaway does, but they didn’t come out and say it publically on the radio.
If you can’t believe the quote above, then hear him for yourself:
For those of you who don’t know, I’m pretty conservative. But, these comments really make Hardaway sound like an uneducated fool.
Former New York mayor, Rudy Giuliani, has confirmed speculation that he will be runnning for the presidency in 2008.
As a New Yorker, I remember Giuliani’s response to the attacks on September 11th. He did a great job then and has been praised ever since. He also did a great job cleaning up New York City before the terror attacks. He cracked down on crime and cleaned up the city a great deal. I still hear my dad raving about the things he did for New York today. Apparently the city streets were infested with millions of crack heads that would scurry out to your car, spit on your windshield, clean it with their sleeve, and ask for money. That was before Giuliani came into office and when I was younger, so I don’t know if that’s true, that’s just what I’m told.
As an Italian American, I would love to see Giuliani represent the Republicans. I’m not sure if the rest of the country is ready for an Italian American president though. I’m sure the the north east will support him (he’ll probably even be able to grab some of the Democratic population too) but the south would have a problem with an I-talian winning the primary. It’s a ridiculous thought but still true in the year 2007.
Giuliani definitely has my vote.
pandemic*@!
