Welcome To Containment

After a gnarly day of traveling yesterday, Tenlin and I made it to Vermont. Now we're having a multiplayer Christmas with her family. Luckily they have wireless Internet access in the condo so I'll be checking up on your gameplay while drinking fresh maple syrup straight out of the bottle.

Suicides on Action Sack Matches

Here is Mondo's typical performance in a heated Action Sack match on Live.

Happy Holidays

Hope everyone has a great holiday break. Tenlin and I are off to Vermont on Thursday to visit her family. Here's a little present for you guys. Thanks for all the good times.

Kong is Cool but the flick is not King

Jenny and I just got back from King Kong and I had to get my opinion on the blog fast.(getting a few(3) hours away from the kids on a Thursday night is always good, but not so much for this movie) Now I know why the video game demo seemed lame. The first hour is lame, the next hour is very cool CG and worth the buzz, and the last hour is just plain plain. If you read a good review, it is in my opinion way off. The Skull Island scenes are very good and the movie has much more than dinosaurs to see. Kong totally kicks arse, but the movie starts too slow and gets pushed over the edge to make it in a three hour window.
My pic is Frat House Attic with little to no ventilation and full of seeds. It'll get you buzzed, but not for very long and you won't take another hit.

The previews for Mission Impossible 3 & Da Vinci Code looked good.

360 is 'it' on the Daily Show

Get the 'it' gift Mondofresh.
Gotta love the Daily Show.

Xbox 360 Linky Roundup

In case you haven't had enough of the Xbox 360 talk by the clan, here is a list of links bound to tickle your fancy.

First, IGN takes a very comprehensive look at the X360 games coming in the next few months. There are some real gems here, so I recommend EBGames gift cards for your X360 friends and family for Christmas.

Already a classic for the Xbox, the Xbox 360 version of Burnout Revenge (coming March) looks even more impressive as GameSpot sits down for a Q&A with the executive producer.

An update on Sega's racing game, Full Auto.

I WORK at home...

Armleg and Tenlin hard at it at 10:00 AM Thursday....

Any 360 Pirate Games?

Clanmember, Mondo, wants to know if there's any Pirate Games in
the development queue for the 360. Arrrrghhhhh!!

Big shout out to J. Mickett, Esq - master of all things pirate.

360 Google Map Mashup

One of my favorite features that Google has developed is their maps. Even better - it's an open API so that anyone can customize the look and data that feeds into the map. What you get is a mashup where crazy data, practical data and freaky geeks collide.

The latest mashup: The Xbox 360 Inventory Tracker!!

This is 360 siting data and overlaying it on a Google map!!

I just wish Google would hurry up and add Zanzibar to their maps so I could start mashing up my brother, Mondo!

Rollin the Benz

With the help of my little red friend, I was able to get through the solo career on PGR3 last night. I went through on silver level difficulty (the middle), so I still have plenty of racing to do. The game is really fun. As a driving game, I think they hit the perfect balance of fun arcade style driving, offset by real world physics and handling.

See you on the track

Shark's new Baby

The newest member of the Shark family was delivered by my Nissan Xterra last night at around 10pm. She weighs 80.6 pounds, is 56 inches wide, and is a healthy happy baby named Samsung DLP. The father is doing well also.

Well, I made the jump into the HD era -- fuled by my love of the Xbox 360, Hockey, and HD...The downstairs living room is coming into shape. This is the next to last piece of the room (next up -- lighting).


To the right, a picture of the newest arrival next to the previous gaming box (the stand is coming today). In the center, the Xbox 360 and DishNet DVR.

And, for salivating, a pic of it with the 360 logo. Playing H2 last night was incredible. Unfortunately, I suck now because my view area has increased so much --- I'll have to retrain. :)

Adding an External Hard Drive to your 360

Anybody have the balls to try this mod on your precious new toy?
