PS3 and 56″ TV, no more Xbox 360
Since Blu-Ray won, I decided that I would get a PS3. I also decided that it was about time to upgrade from my 19″ 720P TV. I also bought a 56″ Samsung DLP 1080P TV. I traded my Xbox 360 for some golf clubs (more on that in a different post) and sold all the accessories on eBay and most of the money from the auctions went to buying a stand-alone HD-DVD player since I don’t plan on selling my HD-DVD collection (and I might even make it bigger).
So far I’ve only bought 1 game for the PS3, and that is Grand Theft Auto 4. I want to buy MLB: The Show ‘08 fairly soon. I’m also probably going to reserve Madden ‘09. I also want to get a Dual Shock 3 because the normal controller is just too light for me.
Finally, I have bought 1 Blu-Ray disc: The Fifth Element. The movie Ultraviolet is in the mail
A small update to the theme (to make it safer for work)
A long time ago, before Wordpess 2.5 I worked pretty hard on making it so that the reader of my blog could select the background and it would save this preference via a cookie. I had a couple of keira knightley backgrounds, a halo 3 background, a milla jovovich background, a packer background, and more.
I have yet to find the will and time to go that far again, but I have at least started doing the migration towards bringing it back.
You can now use the original background of this theme, called nebula, by going to http://apexad.net/?back=nebula. I hope to try and add more soon, but it might be awhile.
Internet Explorer 8 Beta 1
It doesn’t seem like Internet Explorer 7 has really even been out for that long, but it has. Internet Explorer 8 is the future now. Sadly I am at work right now and not on a Windows machine, but I am planning on testing this out on my Windows machine when I get home later today. If you haven’t heard about Internet Explorer 8 Beta 1, go check out the info page: Internet Explorer 8.
The webslices feature certainly looks interesting, but if it will actually be something people use is anyone’s guess. Also, it’s not like Microsoft to have HTML 5.0 support in a browser when HTML 5.0 is still in the draft stages. It’s even suppose to be fully CSS 2.1 compatible. It will truly be an amazing thing if Microsoft can accomplish this.
Mini - Movie Review: Silk
So I watched Silk. Firstly, let me point out that not only do you see some Keira Knightley boob in this, but also that of a pretty hot asian woman. That is one of the great things about movies that come from England versus the United States, they’re not so prudish. Anyway, the theme of the movie surprisingly is about a small town that makes Silk. The problem is that 1 man must travel to Japan to retrieve the silk eggs. In doing so he almost lives a double life. His trip becomes harder and harder each time he makes it. Will he survive? Will he keep Keira as his wife? You’ll get the answers when you watch this movie.
I’ll give it a 3 out 5. It’s good, but is somewhat predictable and I often wonder why certain scenes are in the movie as it seems to jump around sometimes.
A new Keira Knightley movie is out!
Yet another Keira Knightley movie just hit DVD. The movie is ‘Silk’. Naturally I bought it and will try and watch it very soon and post a mini-review for everyone to read! I am thinking I should have time to watch it tonight so the review will come later tonight or during the weekend.
