What you should be reading: Watchmen

Okay, I saw the Watchmen trailer and I thought, that movie look nice. Later check who was the director, Zack Snyder (you know, the guy from ‘300′), okay it may be good. Then I discovered that it is based on a graphic novel from the 1980’s, and I thought….WHAT??? Then went to Borders and saw a whole section dedicated to the graphic novel and I thought, what the heck, let me pick one. After reading it, OH MY GOD I HAVE BEEN LIVING UNDER A ROCK! How I have lived all these years without knowing of this gem.

Sprint to Apple: Everything you can do, I can do better!

Spotted another ad of Sprint’s campaign of their Instinct against the iPhone. This one says: “Busqueda activada por voz. Lo que el iPhone jamas penso.” Which in english means:

“Voice activated search. What the iPhone never thought.”

I most say, the previous one was a good hit against the iPhone, the lack of video recording really hurts, but this one…. nothing the AppStore cannot fix.  I currently use Say Who by Dial Directions and it works fine, and its free! 

 

There will be blood!

Dead Spaces, Guitar Heroes and other games which their marketing engine are currently
in full speed. But believe me, this game is gooooood and you should get it, as….NOW!

Gears of War 2: Emergence Day…Redux!

Went to my local GameStop to get my Gears of War 2 copy! With the reserve in GameStop, they are giving away a free GoW first issue comic and a free code in Xbox Live for a gold-plated hammerburst for online play. Oh, and donuts! Having the game at last is good, having free Dunkin’ Donuts while in line, priceless!

"Is this the line for Wii Music?"

Review: Dead Space – A new franchise is born!

After finishing EA’s Dead Space, I remember having a grin in my face! Not just because I loved this game, but also I LOVE the new direction EA is going! We are talking one of the most powerful developers in the world and at last, they are letting their creative team go wild! And from that new freedom, Dead Space has born.

“Records and sends videos. What the iPhone wants!”

Little Big Planet servers down, getting hit hard on launch day!

It seems that everybody loves Sackboy since it has been impossible to access the servers today on its launch day. Oh well, the game was delayed for more than a week so what another day can do to you?
