My Top 10 Movies of 2008
2008 is drawing to a close, and it’s time for another year of my favorite top 10 movies that were released this year. Just to let you know, my favorite genres are: scary/horror, thriller, anime, drama, and action. I don’t really watch many comedy or romance films, so that’s why there won’t be many on the list.
While I have not seen every movie that interested me this year (as there are a few in theaters right now that seem really appealing), I highly doubt it will change my top 10 list of 2008. If in fact they do, I’ll be sure to update this article.
Website Spotlight: Beat My Price
Just came across this site a few days ago.
It’s a site that compares prices – and finds the cheapest place that the item sells for.
Just try it out right here.
I have a feeling I’ll be using it quite often : )
Song of the Week [#27]
This week’s song is a mix of ABBA Cover’s. Works well with Mamma Mia, out now on DVD.
Thank You For The Music CD
Video Game Spotlight: Party Animals
Looking for a cheap family-friendly multiplayer game? Viva Pinata Party Animals is your answer! Featuring over 50 mini games, as well as a racing mode (which is similar to Mario Kart) this game is a blast to play with friends, and even online with up to 4 people!
I purchased this game last week, and I am really enjoying the game. The graphics are really vibrant and colorful, and the variety of games are cool. Some of the mini-games are a bit boring, but overall, it’s a worthy purchase.
It’s only $7 on Amazon.com, so get shopping! : )
Happy Hanukkah!
Last night was the second night of Hanukkah (also spelled Chanukah and several other ways, lol).
It’s a day where people of the Jewish faith light a menorah, aka a candelabra, to remind us of the miracle: the miracle that the one small kosher jar of oil was found and lasted for 8 days and nights.
It’s a custom to eat latkes (potato pancakes) and sufganiot (jelly doughnuts). People also spin the dreidel (a little spin top with letters on it).
Happy Hanukkah! ^_^
Quote of the Week [#38]
“The past is finished. There is nothing to be gained by going over it. Whatever it gave us in the experiences it brought us was something we had to know.”
– Rebecca Beard
So sick and tired of Konami.
I can just sit idly by like 95% of the world, and not care about this, but I stand for integrity and truth.
I’m talking about Konami’s Dance Dance Revolution Universe games, which asks consumers to purchase downloadable content that’s already on the disc.
Things worsened when DDR Universe 3 was released, when the back of the cover featured songs that did not exist in the game. Popular songs that were, in many eyes, “not a misprint” but in fact a decoy to get consumers to purchase the game.
A few days ago, Konami released downloadable content for this game, and is asking consumers to re-pay for the DDR Universe and DDR Universe 2 megapacks in which we already purchased!
Not to mention the description is wrong with many of the songs, as other consumers mentioned when they downloaded a particular song they got something else instead.
Oh,and all of this content is located on the disc already too.
I don’t know why this garbage is happening, and why no one is doing anything about it. Konami needs to be more responsible. They are angering their fanbase!
This never happened with the DDR Ultramix games on the Original Xbox.
I’ve spent one too many hours on the phone with Microsoft and Konami, and I am hoping there is a resolution.
