Free Xbox360 Site, eh?

I've decided, I'm going to talk about all these free sites. I'm sure you've heard/seen videos about them. Well, I'm going to basically prove it wrong in a video, since people make these annoying videos about, "FREE XBOX 360!".

I've made an account(risk free-from what I could tell). My test is this, it says to get a free xbox 360, I need 12 referrals. I'm assuming that means 12 people create an account on their site? Anyways, follow this link: http://www.360Elite4free.com/index.php?ref=5080442 and create an account.

Make a fake name/email/address..whatever. I think it will be fun to make a "journey" video through this bullshit. If you get the free time, let's test this out.

*Disclaimer: If you don't know what the sites I'm talking about are, don't worry about it at all. This is just a silly experiment of mine.

Anyways, working on the GTA4 review, hopefully it will be uploaded soon!

Quick Post

Hey guys,

I got back rather late yesterday after dropping my dog off, so there was no ustream. I will do a ustream next Tuesday(5/3) as long as I don't have anything pop up on me.

So Mavrek, that challenge is rough. I've made literally 5 videos on it and deleted them all, I want my video is impact and I just don't feel like I'm going to be able to produce one like that, so I'm going to continue to work on it.

From Sunday to Tuesday, I purchased 13 DVD's brining my grand total to 400 exactly. I bought 3 from Best Buy on Sunday, 6 from Buybacks on Monday and a pack of 4 at Best Buy on Tuesday. I've already watched 2 of them and they both were, eh.

The next video to be uploaded will most likely be the Indiana Jones review/Wii Fit unboxing. Following that will most likely be the DVD update for the week and then "Why Buy a Wii." Hopefully, I'll get the challenge video done, because as soon as it's done, I'll upload it.

I enjoy watching people show off what they bought, but does everyone else who reads this? Are my weekly DVD updates boring? Do you not care? Should I make one every two weeks? Should I only write down what I get in my blog? Just don't want to scare people off with DVD updates all the time, I try to push cool new videos out. I haven't done a game review in awhile, but I haven't honestly done much gaming in the past month. Just been so tired/sick all the time.

I am very glad to see Fran got a video up, she got some kick ass stuff! I'm just glad she was ok, as I lost contact with her, lol.

So, I call upon my faithful for more video ideas. I know it was suggested to do my top 5 favorite things of which I own, which will take me a while to gather that list.

Take care everyone!

Blog on Sunday, WHA?!

Quick note guys..

I'm going to a paranormal investigation tonight, which means I'll be getting home around 7am or 8 am. That also means, I'll be freaking tired! I normally wake up at a random time in the middle of the day, but who knows when. I guess what I'm trying to say is, don't bank on a ustream once again. Tuesday, I'm taking my dog to some place that is like over an hour away after work to give him away, so I'll be getting home late.

Anyways, I uploaded all the shit I bought last week, the ad hasn't been approved on it yet, stay tuned. I'm currently working on the "challenge" video brought forth by Mavrek.

On a side note, I saw Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls. I'll review that in a video later. I've also done an unboxing of Wii Fit, that I'll add with the review I think. Lots of videos along the way, keep checking back.

I also bought 3 movies today. You'll have to wait and see which ones I bought for the DVD update video that will be uploaded Saturday night.

Anyways, I'm off to Waverly, Ohio. Take care!

Movie List

So, I've decided I'm going to go ahead and post my entire DVD collection on here. I tried to do what Sixty did, I just don't have the time nor do I have the patience to type in all 386 DVD's or whatever I'm at. So, I'll just post it on this blog and then update as I get them. I've purchased 9 DVD's in the past 2 days, but you'll know which ones I get once I post my DVD update for this week on Saturday night. You'll be able to figure atleast two out because I've talked about them and they are part of the list I'll post.

Boring Weekend

Aside from our paranormal meeting, I didn't really do jack shit this weekend. I didn't even get to do any gaming, which sucks.

Friday: Worked all day
Saturday: Worked from 9a-1p. Went home and took a nap, picked Brittany up from work and dropped her off. Went to my meeting and then took her to the mall. I did get something from the mall, so I guess it wasn't too bad. I got the remake of Night of the Living Dead for $9.99 and a free movie with it: Mothman Prophecies(SP?). Basically 2 movies for 10 bucks. I can't complain, I think I'll go to Wal-Mart today to check out their $5 bin.
Sunday: Worked from 6a-2:30p. Slept from 3p-8p. Brittany came home and we talked about wedding stuff.

I think it's pretty much official, it looks like we are getting married in Florida and then going on a 7 day cruise for a honey moon. I'm targeting around July and she wants to get married August, 8th. Because it will be 8/8/08. I'm at the point where I don't give a damn, I just want to get married and move on! I want a house, I'm tired of this apartment bullshit.

Going to be an expensive week for me. Wii-Fit for Brittany, Diary of the Dead/National Treasure 2 on DVD. I am even considering buying the new 3 Doors Down CD and the Flobots CD. I love the song handlebars and if you never heard it, check it out on youtube. I know Sixty checked it out and seemed to enjoy the music.

Not much else for me to say, I'm kind of debating on whether to do a ustream or not. I really need to get some gaming done and tonight/tomorrow night will be the only times I can accomplish that. Anyways, stay tuned if I decide to do one.

Take care!

What Happens in Vegas

Brittany and I went to see "What Happens in Vegas" starring Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher. We went to see it despite hearing horrible things about the movie because shes been wanting to see it since it was shown in a commerical during Big Brother 9.

It was good enough that you should rent it when it comes out on DVD. I wouldn't recommend seeing it in theatres. It's one of those movies that most of the funny parts are in the commerical. Cameron Diaz has lost her "sexy" appeal to me and Ashton Kutcher is just not as funny anymore. Yes, it has it's funny moments, but some things dragged on a bit too long.

The cast were a pretty good cast. Other than the two mentioned above, it also had Queen Latifah, Dennis Miller and Rob Corddry(also in Harold and Kumar 2-very funny guy). I would buy the movie if I ever saw it on sale for $5. I don't think I'd pay over 5 for it. The story was the typical romance story. They get married in Vegas after she gets dumped and he loses his job(they were obviously trashed) and he hits the jackpot for $3 million. The judge freezes the funds and sentences them to 6 months "hard marriage"(have to try to work it out). They start actually falling for each other, after trying to trick each other into not proving they are working on their marriage(if that sentence makes any sense).

Anyways, rent it on DVD when it comes out. So I've watched all the Indiana Jones movies recently since I bought the triliogy. Holy shit, I forgot how bad ass those movies are. Makes me even more excited to see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls. Woot woot!

Well, I don't have much else to say. I may not be having a ustream next week. Stay tuned!

500!

I really am not worried about the amount of subs I get, but I still think it's neat that I've surpassed the 500 mark.

So, I had a comment earlier in my last video. "All you do is sit there and talk. I'll unsubsribe if you don't do something different." It was something very similar. Does everyone who read this feel the same? I wish I could do gameplay, but I can't figure out how people transfer their video from the camcorder tapes to the computer. Ah well, I'll figure it out eventually.

I seriously hope my videos arn't getting boring. Anyways..

I watched the Brave One with Brittany yesterday. It's an ok movie. I'd recommend everyone rent it. It's very predictable and as I stated in the past, I'm not a Jodie Foster fan, but it's worth a watch once. It's just your usual grude/revenge movie. Nothing much else to say about it really.

So, I don't have much else to say. Wednesdays suck!

Doctor's Appointment = Promising

So, I didn't work today, I'm sure you could tell since you didn't get your usual noon update. I went to my doctor's appointment and he said nothing alarming came to his attention and that I should just check up with my family physician often. So yay!

I did go to Buybacks today(woot, woot). I bought 4 movies! They were more expensive, since I spent $31 on 4 movies. I bought:

1) Fright Night - I love this vampire movie. Absolutely ranks in my top favorite vampire movies. I can't believe I found it and I got it for $6.99.
2) Ocean's Twelve - I got this $3.99. The ONLY reason I bought it was to further my trilogy. I'll be buying Ocean's Thirteen once Buybacks gets one in, so I figured I'd might as well get twelve, so it will be complete. Twelve did suck though.
3) Brave One - I bought this more my fiancee. She saw some of it and got really into it. I'm not a huge fan of Jodie Foster, but I've heard many good things about this movie.
4) Deathproof - I've wanted to see this because I'm a huge fan of Quentin Taurantino(SP?). I was let down with Planet Terror and I've got to sadly say, I wasn't overly impressed with Deathproof either. It was good enough to watch, but I'm not quite sure I'd recommend anyone buying it.

Notable DVD's I want really damn bad, but they never have:

1) Lion King - For my Fiancee
2) Beauty and the Beast - For my Fiancee
3) Pan's Labyrinth - Looks really interesting(I'm jelious you got it Mavrek and for that price!)
4) Beowulf - Because I loved the movie- ALOT

Anyways, I'm going to end this blog. Ustream tomorrow at 3:45pm(I may be like 2 mins late!), hope to see you all there!

Subject Titles = Bleh

So yeah, this will probably be a short blog, because I really don't have a lot to say. I have tomorrow off work, but of course, I've got to go to some stupid wedding. I'm sorry, but I really don't enjoy weddings. They arn't fun at all to me. I really don't care for this one, because I don't know who the hell they are. Brittany wants me to go because it's her family, but I don't know who the hell is getting married.

Do you know how awkward it is when you don't know who the bride/groom is? I'll know a very small and select number of people there, but I still dislike weddings. They are so damn boring. So, on a day I have off from work, I have to go to a wedding that is 2 hrs+ away and the ceremony doesn't even start until 4:30, which means the reception runs late and I don't want to be getting home at 9 or 10pm when I have work at 6:00am. What a waste of my day. I know it sounds selfish, but if I knew the people who were getting married, I'd be like, "Hell yeah, let's go".

Ok, got that rant off my chest. I got my tax refund check today, woot. $600, but all goes to a wedding. I wish I could buy something sweet or actually have some nice spending money for awhile, but won't be doing that.

So, I've had a lot of requests to do a video with my sister(who I've talked about many times) about a game. I may very well be doing my GTA4 review with her. She just bought it last night along with Uncharted. So, I may do that Sunday(when I go see my mom for Mother's Day and upload it Sunday Night/Monday Morning).

Exciting News!: I just found out Diary of the Dead releases on DVD- May 20, 2008. So, I'll be buying two new releases that day(yes!).

To close this, I was wondering...I get home tonight from work around 11pm. Now, if I were to do a ustream around midnight, would anyone show up? Let me know, I may just very well do that.

Second post of the Day!

So, I felt like writing a bit more in this damn blog(make sure you check out my previous post). I want to focus this on gaming/movies solely.

So, I've complied a list(somewhat) of what games I want by the end of this year.

-Wii Fit(Wii)
-Metal Gear Solid 4(ps3)
-Little Big Planet(ps3)
-Gears of War 2(xbox 360)
-Ninja Gaiden 2(xbox 360)
-Killzone 2(ps3)
-Motorstorm 2(ps3)
-Resistance 2(ps3)
-Silent Hill 5(?)
-Star Wars: The Force Unleashed(xbox 360)
-World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
-Saints Row 2(xbox 360)
-Tom Clancy's End War(xbox 360)
-Ghostbusters(xbox 360)
-Alone in the Dark 5(?)

Wow, that's an ass ton of games. Those were in no specific order by the way, just as I read them/wrote them down. I've already got quite a few new games this year, so 2008 looks like it will be very promising. I can sit back and remember a time when good games came out every once in awhile or atleast promising games. Now, it seems like gaming is at it's peak as far as the game release lists. Just so many good games, it's crazy. It's also draining on my wallet, to bad the stimulus check is coming on a year that I am getting married, or I'd have the majority of them covered. There is always Christmas that will bring in a bunch of games.

I wish I could drive myself to get involved in WoW more. I just don't have the energy to devote to it, I'd have a lot of level 70's by now, but I just don't want to finish out my characters. I've got a ton that can get to 70 easily, I just don't have the motivation. Hopefully, I'll get my drive back again.

Now for the 2008 DVD's I want on release day. I've realized waiting for the DVD's to release and going to buybacks to get them used is cheaper, but these are ones I want on release day.

-National Treasure 2(May 20th)

That's the only confirmed one I noticed so far. I'm sure theres more, but I can't find a good DVD release list. Anyways, I need to go back to work.

Damn Spiders!

Alright, so the reason I had to hop off my ustream yesterday rather quickly, was because my Aunt was put in the hospital. The reason: A brown recluse spider bit her in the ankle/foot of her left leg. Now, if you don't know much about those spiders, check them out, nasty little things. So her foot looks so nasty and I hope she recovers well.

Anyways, just wanted to clarify that. So, after that, my uncle drove to Buybacks(its off an exit on the way back) and I bought a couple movies for my fiancee. We want to start collecting Disney movies, because we are fans of those movies and they are actually worth the most out of DVD's themselves. So I got two movies for $29(yeah I know-I usually get like 5 or 6 movies for that amount). Anyways, they were Pocahontas(she loves it-I really don't care for it) and Aladdin(I really enjoy this one and she likes it too).

Then I stopped at Gamestop after hearing about a Megaman Collection game released on the xbox/gamecube. Since I love Megaman and actually don't own any in cartiridge(I know-BAD SHEPDAWG!), I found it! For $12.99 I got the Megaman Collection for the gamecube. 10 games in 1. Megaman 1-8 and two bonus unlockable arcade megaman games never released in the US(that's what it said on the back).

By the way, I think I may have possible paranormal activity in my apartment, I have things going missing and stupid things, nothing of value(return labels, water bill, dog leash). The return labels wound up in the drawer that they should be in and neither Brittany or I put it in there. I set-up a camcorder last night, just to check it out. It could just be us both being forgetful, but the chances are not very high for that, but I won't count anything out. I'll keep you posted on if I find anything.

Next ustream won't be until possibly next Tuesday. Monday I have a doctor's appointment for my Hiatal Hernia, so I'm pretty worried about that. Tuesday, would be the best day, but I'm not sure if I have anything going on that day or not.

Take care everyone!

Sixty Time...

So, yesterday after I got off work, I got to game it up with one of my best buds here on youtube, Sixty X Celph! Well actually, he gamed it up and I watched as he destroyed me in just about everything. Wow.

We played Mario Kart Wii first, after configuring our numbers, it finally let us play together. Sixty beat me in the first 4 or 5 VS races we did(he used the gamecube controller and I used the Wii Wheel). He said it was unfair, so I switched to the gamecube controller. After that, we played the battle game, which was fun, I actually won some matches, but I believe he beat me 10-9 for the win. So, it was obvious: Sixty kicks ass, I don't in Mario Kart Wii(and I'm sure in everything else we will play together in the future). So, we played the Coin Collecting battle mode, I won a couple battles, I think I may have won overall, but I could be wrong, I didn't care who won, it was a blast gaming it up with Sixty.

So after that, we played a couple more VS races, I actually won one, because of that beautiful blue shell of death. Anyways, I had to head back to work soon(Best Buy = bleh), we played some of my new game Marvel Ultimate Alliance in co-op mode. I downloaded the heroes/villians combo pack(thanks sixty for the recommendation of it) and we were off. He just lead where to go as I floated in the air and couldn't get down(Sixty knows what I'm talking about). So, after playing like 3 boss battles, I've concluded that I'm going to really enjoy this game, I can tell. It was a blast, especially with Sixty. The only downside to our gaming was my xbox 360 headset wasn't working properly, and we couldn't talk as much as I'd like. Regardless, I had a blast and I'm looking forward to gaming with him and everyone else in the future.

Now, I'm going to see Ironman with one of my friends tonight at 6:30. I can't wait, it's gotten so much hype and tore up the box office this past weekend. I'll definitely be reviewing it sometime soon. Anyways, I need to end this blog. Take care!

By the way, I've decided the people who read this are probably the youtubers I'm closer with, so I'm going to put out my AIM screenname for people to chat with me when I'm home. Ballinbigingc(I know it's childish, but I made it in the 7th grade or 6th grade I think, so yeah).

Remember, USTREAM tomorrow! I'm shooting for 3:15pm(I need a haircut-haha).

3 More Games!

Made a new video, but it will basically cover everything I write about in here with more added to it and additional information at the end. I got 3 used games from Gamestop(I know, I've talked about disliking Gamestop in the past, but they had a good deal(buy 2 used games get 1 used game free)). The only reason I stopped in Gamestop was because my fiancee had to get new jeans from American Eagle and I HATE shopping for clothes.

My fiancee buys all my new clothes, unless it's like a sports jersey or something that catches my eye. I always have had the same style, shorts/t-shirts for summer/spring, shorts and snap-ups/t-shirt and sweatshirts for the winter/fall. I mean I'll wear nice clothing when I take her out on a nice day or when I am going to something that you shouldn't wear casual clothing too. Anyways, who cares about my style(or lack there of). So, while she was looking, I gave her the a smile and said I was going to look around. She told me to stay away from Gamestop as I need to save(which I do).

Well, I went there anyway and I texted her the deal and she actually agreed it was a nice deal, so I got my three games. And they are:

1) Lost Planet (xbox 360) - Now, I've always heard pretty good things about this game, so I figured what the hell..I'll get it to play it.

2) Marvel Ultimate Alliance (xbox 360) - I've been wanting this game, just because I enjoy Marvel (especially Spiderman!), unfortunately Sixty told me Spidey wasn't very strong which sucks, but I'll make due, I'm sure I'll enjoy it regardless. I did see Wolverine, which I think is kick ass.

3) Vampire Rain (xbox 360) - Now I was going to buy this on release day, but it got chopped up my review sites (example: IGN gave it a 2.6) and people who did buy/rent it said it sucked ass, but after Sixty's review and watching Soupman play it on youtube, I figured what the hell. I'm pretty excited to play it, I understand having to be extremely stealthy, which I think will be a fun factor.

I'll be fully reviewing all three, but I have to make Grand Theft Auto IV my main priority for my next review. It's getting better and better the more I play, there is just a quick update. The driving is growing on me. Also, my buddy let me borrow Devil May Cry 4(ps3), so I may review that as well.

Sixty, I know this may be weird in my blog for a request, but I would actually enjoy a Luigi's Mansion review from you. Sadly, Gamestop didn't have that or Super Mario Sunshine(damnit! I can't find this damn game).

And to wrap this up, my next scheduled USTREAM is on 5/6/08 at approximately 3pm/3:15pm. See you there!
