We (My Friend and I) were at the Mall trying to kill some time when we decided to go to the arcade and play some fighting games. Instead we found something way cooler. It's Rambo the Arcade. It just SHIPPED IN!!! After few minutes enjoying the game's trailer/demo, I decided to give it a go. The machine took 4 tokens and a few seconds later, I was playing as John Rambo, ex-green beret. I have some video footage of myself, playing the game.
Sorry we were unable to show you the whole play through. At the end of the video you can see that the cameraman suddenly stopped filming. This is because he was 'poked' (Yes I said it! Right in the lower ribs! Ooh kinky!) politely by one the arcade girls and asked to stopped filming the game. I was told by my friend that we were asked to leave because we weren't obeying the arcade's house rules. They were nice enough to let me play the game till I used up all my lives but instead I manage to meet the 'boss' of the chapter and manage to defeat it. I was on my way to chapter 2 but the previous mentioned arcade girl kindly asked us to leave. Well that's what you'll get when you break house rules in the arcade. Well I did my best to show more on Rambo the Arcade to you guys. I will try to show some more game play on chapter 2 if I can. Get ready the hidden cam! 1 Comments

North Pole, South Pole? Who cares? Its Death Magnetic!Death Magnetic the long awaited album from MetallicA. Being a huge MetallicA fan I bought it the day it was released 12th September 2008. The album is way way way different from St. Anger and to me this album is good. Lets face it, MetallicA was super awesome in the 80's. You can't deny that. Over the years they 'evolve' and become totally different band. I think its something to do about cutting their hair short. Who knows maybe their hairs was the source of their previous 'Greatness'. That's a mystery no one wants to solve.
Being said that, Death magnetic is the right direction towards that 'Greatness'. Its not like the previous albums in the 80's, like Ride the Lightning or Master of Puppets but its something that head towards that style of metal. The music and lyrics are again similar to their early work.
An example would be the "The Day That Never Comes" which I believe is their first single for the album. The song is great and has that 'One' feel towards it. Maybe its the music video for the song that make me compare "The Day That Never Comes" to "One". The song (The Day That Never Comes) starts slow and has a ballad feel to it but has the song progress it feels upbeat and more heavy. The riffs at the end or the outro sounds like 'One' or something from ...And Justice For All.
Don't get me wrong though, the song is great, one of my favorites in fact. Nice to see there are some instrumental songs in the album. MetallicA may or may not lost the ability to write good lyrics but they sure know their music. The instrumental part was a great and something any MetallicA fan would enjoy. Each riffs and the piano piece (yeah I know! its the first for them I think) was great and heavy at most parts. You would know its a MetallicA riff if you heard it, its that prominent believe me. As for the drums, well lets say Lars Ulrich did a great jobs as always.
Overall this album is a good one. MetallicA fans alike should get it and listen to it. I advise you not to compare it to the older ones and listen to it as it is. You will then understand that they have gone back to the 'essence' of MetallicA.
Chain Letter Nullification - Have this and not only you are immune to curses but fire aswellOkay, next on the list of useless things in the world is something very annoying and somehow people will still pass it on after reading this. Chain mails, yes its chain mails fellow giantbombers. No, no, it’s not the suit of armor that blokes in England wore for combat during the medieval era. It’s the one that attempts to induce the recipient to make a number of copies of the letter/mail and then pass them on to one or more new recipients. To me chain mail is useless and has no meaningful thing behind it (well apart from its amusing story). What are people trying to accomplish by sending or creating some random message/email to their friends that they will have 7 years bad luck if they do not forward the message/email to their other friends? It is ridiculous! It is a waste of time and effort to forward something so useless and dumb. Chain mail now exists in emails, Friendster and YouTube to name a few. Let me give a fine example of a chain mail: AN IRISH FRIENDSHIP WISH
Good Luck!! I hope it works...
May there always be work for your hands to do;
May your purse always hold a coin or two;
May the sun always shine on your windowpane;
May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain;
May the hand of a friend always be near you;
May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
OK, this is what you have to do....
Send this to all of your friends! But - you HAVE to send this within 1 hour from when you open it!
Now.................Make a wish!!!!!!
I hope you made your wish! Now then, if you send to: 1 person --- your wish will be granted in 1 year
3 people --- 6 months
5 people --- 3 months
6 people --- 1 month
7 people --- 2 weeks
8 people --- 1 week
9 people --- 5 days
10 people --- 3 days
12 people --- 2 days
15 people --- 1 day
20 people --- 3 hours
If you delete this after you read it... you will have 1 year of bad luck! But... if you send it 2 of your friends you will automatically have 3 years of good luck!!! :-)
Please let me tell you a little secret. You do not need to forward or send such email to your friends and family. And don’t worry because you will not have (add number of years here) of bad luck and your (add name of love one here) won’t leave you for another man/woman. I have been deleting such mails for years and I have yet to receive this “bad luck”. In fact my luck seems to be better after each deletion! If you have faith in yourself then good luck will come, naturally. Don’t be deceived by some geek behind a computer screen creating and then sending these nonsensical and annoying mails to keep him occupied and entertained. Don’t let the geek win. Please. If that won’t change your mind from sending these chain mails to other people, let me do it in a different approach. Be in mind that most of these mails have viruses in them. You people know what is a computer virus is right? Well for the Jocks and Dumb Blondes out there I shall ‘educate’ you guys on computer viruses. For the Jocks, computer viruses, in a nutshell, are “little” things that will delete your downloaded porn without your approval (Oh My God!). As for the dumb blondes, computer viruses will delete your digital pictures you taken in (add name of hangout spot here) without your approval. Well, after reading this article and you are still not convinced that you should not forward chain mails, let me tell you this:
If you send/forward anymore chain mails to your friends and family after reading this you will get a lifetime of bad luck and you will be poor for the rest of your life. But if you stop sending or forwarding such chain mails you will be blessed and mountains of (add your country’s currency here) will appear in your bank account in 3 days!
CANGER - A new super burger?Well there are references of hamburgers in the video game world. What about a CANGER? Okay seriously, when will they stop making useless things? Well you guys have to wait a little longer because there is another useless thing in our world today. This 'thing' has place canned food (a useful item) and fast food (a food chain restaurant) into a whole another level.
A company manages to fuse a cheese burger in a can. Thus making it into a CANGER. Yeah I noticed too. It sounds awfully close to CANCER isn’t it? Well I am not surprise if you get CANCER by eating one of this CANGER. Canned food has been around for quite some time now and to me it’s a godsend. Especially the can food tuna made by the rest. In case of emergency (meaning no food to eat and you don't want to bother yourself to call for McDonalds/KFC or go to your nearest Family Diner) you just have to open the can up and VIOLA! tuna in a can and it is so good that you can even eat it on its own. *smiles*
It’s okay for tuna really. This is due to the fact that tuna is being cooked and prepared PROPERLY. As for this "CANGER" don't expect it to look like a burger like the above inserted picture. It’s going to look like minced meat with pieces of bread in it. In my opinion, that is not even a burger. The Company should not call it a burger in a can nor a CANGER. They just have to call it minced meat and bread with a side of lettuce.
Honestly I have not tried one. But will I try it? The answer is NO. The reason is simple: if they can't get the name right for the food they prepare, there is a high chance the taste won't be right either. 2 Comments
You know, I'm not a sexist person. But there comes a time when I do think that when God created women, he probably has no idea what he was doing. Or maybe he does? Who knows. But I have always believed that we men, with our abilities to come up with complex stuff like computers and binary codes and what not, have always been unable to understand the female psyche. And for that valid reason, I call women 'Crazy people'. And believe you me ladies, from where we guys are standing, and if you were in our shoes, you would definitely understand. I actually came across a book. And it was actually written by a female author for men to better understand women that is. And it had these equations as examples to how men and women react to different situations. And here's my version of it.
A man's thoughts...
1) Damn I'm hungry. Hey it's dinnertime already? 2) Maybe I'll eat some burgers and chips, plus they'll be playing the game on TV. 3) Let's go to a Sports Bar.
Equation is:- 1 + 2 = 3 Simple, yes?
A woman's thoughts...
1) I'm hungry. It's dinnertime isn't it? 2) I wonder if I go out to eat too much? Or maybe not enough? Have I paid my phone bill yet? Why does my boyfriend want to go to a Sports Bar... That place reminds me of my ex... Plus there was that incident with my Hair. That was awful. Maybe I should wash my hair before i go out? Why do guys like to eat so late? The food is nice... but it is so oily and fattening, plus it gives me gas. And that can be so embarrassing... 3) I can't go to dinner. I'm really overwhelmed. Why can't my boyfriend understand.
