My Late review of Drag Me to Hell
So, I finally saw Drag Me to Hell and I have to say, I was less than impressed. I was excited to see this movie. I’ve been a big fan of the Evil Dead series since I was a kid and saw Army of Darkness for the first time on First Choice (now known as The Movie Network). When I heard Sam Raimi had a new movie coming out I was really excited. I obviously didn’t see it in theatres, but...

Why your XBox 360 sucks
Alright, so it’s only fair that I pick on the giant of the 3. The XBox 360. Since November 22, 2005 the XBox 360 has been a powerhouse of a console. They are currently the top selling console on the market. That might change now that the PS3 has the same $299 price point. Although, Microsoft could reduce their prices to retaliate. After all, the XBox 360 is a cheap piece of crap....

Why your PS3 sucks
Face it. The thing sucks. I have one and cry every time I turn it on. I suppose it’s come in handy as games started coming out, but I really just bought it as a cheap Blu-Ray player. At the time I bought it, $399 was the price point and that was as cheap as Blu-Ray Players got. Sure, games started coming out that got me interested, but no real exclusives to get me behind it enough to really...

For my third TV show recommendation post I am going to discuss Supernatural which is one of my favourite TV shows on right now. It just started its fifth, and possibly final, season. I say possibly final because this is the last season of a 5-season story arc and though they’ve teased us with the possibility of doing more the creators have said it would probably be five seasons and no...

Play This Game: Trials HD
Trials HD is a new XBox arcade game in which you ride a motorcycle through various obstacle courses and try to finish as quick as possible, with as few faults (retries) as possible, and/or perhaps even just try to finish the course. I mention the last one because this game is hard, REALLY hard. It’s really rare for me to like games that are extremely difficult as most of the time for me...

Why Digg needs to be more bipartisan
Some things you should know. I’m a Canadian. I live with 3 major Federal parties existing. The Liberal Party, The Conservative Party, and The NDP. If you count The Bloc, then there’s 4. You can only vote for them in Quebec,which is only a province. Why can you vote for them as a Federal representation is beyond me. For the sake of this article, though, I’m going to focus on...

See This Movie: Gamer
I haven’t written anything in a while but now I’m trying to force myself to sit down and write at least a little bit a day so eventually, even if I don’t finish an article every day, I’ll at least be working toward a goal. For my first article in quite a while I’d like to tell you about a movie called Gamer. Gamer is about a future in which people can control other...

iPhone App Review #4: µMonitor
Here’s µMonitor for the iPhone, which was recently rejected by the appstore after the “AppStore Gods” reviewed it for 4 months or so. According to Apple: “We’ve reviewed µMonitor and determined that we cannot post this version of your application to the App Store at this time because this category of applications is often used for the purpose of infringing third party rights....
