Used CDs for Sale
Posted on August 23, 2008 - Filed Under Entertainment, Music | Leave a Comment
I’ve finally gotten around to putting the used CDs up on proper shelving instead of just having some crammed into a bin. I also brought up another box full from the basement so there’s almost 800 of ‘em on display now. $4 each, tax included. I still have a few boxes of [...]

Posted on August 22, 2008 - Filed Under Electronics, gaming | Leave a Comment
80gb PS3’s will soon be dropping to the $399 prince point, I’m not sure what will be happening with the 40gb units. I expect they will drop the price to $349 until the remaining units have been sold and then it will be discontinued. Recent news of a 160gb PS3 coming in November [...]

Living around here my whole life has gotten me accustomed to having hardly anything to listen to on the radio. With only one english radio station to tune in to, the benefits of high speed internet really shine. Many radio stations (ours included, strangely enough) are now offering online broadcasts, which means we [...]

Drums are fun. I can’t play real drums, yet anyway, but I’m doing ok so far with Rock Bands fake plastic drum set. Next month we get Rock Band 2 with some upgrades including optional cymbals for the drum set and an auto-calibration feature in the new guitar. A premium drum set [...]

I just updated the Used Games page again to include some new goodies we’ve gotten in this week and delete the stuff that sold. Items of particular interest are a Nintendo Wii (which honestly seems to be more of a weight loss products than a gaming system), some more Rock Band gear for the [...]

Lots of rumors flying around about some price drops coming next month. The Xbox 360 Pro 20gb has already dropped from $349 to $299 which is just $20 more than the Arcade bundle that only comes with a memory card. Next month however the Arcade system could be as low as $199. [...]

Summer tends to be a little slow when it comes to new DVDs being released, but this one is even worse than usual. On average there’s only 1 ‘big’ name movie coming out a week along with 1 or 2 of the lesser known titles. September will probably be flooded with movies, once the [...]

I’ll be the first to admit I’m not a big fan of the Wii. It just doesn’t have the games I’m looking for, but there’s no denying it’s mass appeal and wide variety of games. Even cooking games are becoming pretty popular on this system and the last cooking game I remember was [...]

This fall can’t come soon enough for music game fans. With Rock Band 2 and Guitar Hero World Tour competing for your living room space it could be a tough decision on which bundle to buy. So far we know that the RB instruments will work with GH:WT but I don’t know if [...]

The time is almost upon us again when the crappyspectacular exhibition comes to town. Most years lately I don’t even bother to go and this year will probably be no different. Even Chloe is 4 now and should enjoy something like that, I know she won’t go on any rides and will probably [...]

Seafest starts this year on July 16th. One of the really interesting things I’ve noticed this year is that they’re not going to allow people to park on Main Street during the parade. The primary reason is cited as being for safety reasons, so that emergency vehicles will still have room to travel [...]

Ever wonder how fast your cat was moving when it caught it’s last mouse? Or maybe you got nailed in the head with an iceball and wished you knew how fast it was traveling? Well, if you’ve got some money to burn you can get your very own radar gun and test those [...]

Posted on July 8, 2008 - Filed Under Entertainment, gaming | Leave a Comment
If you’re a Guitar Hero fan I’d recommend renting this. If you also love Aerosmith then it may be worth buying, but at the full price of 60 bucks for just 41 songs, it’s a little steep. Personally, I’m not a big Aerosmith fan so I opted to just rent the game. [...]

I played the Lego Star Wars games a while back and this month saw the release of Lego Indiana Jones. I enjoyed the others so I decided to check this one out too. Overall it’s a very fun game. Like the Star Wars one you journey through a variety of levels [...]
