GTA IV CONTEST: Win gamerpics + 500MSpoints!
Koopa13 | 12:38 PM on 05.03.2008 39 comments


So few of you may have seen one of my older posts where i showed u the pre order packs from gta iv. These include exclusive GTA gamer pics and 500MSpoints. So i have 10 up for grabs and its a simple competition. However thos who specified they wanted one in the previous post you guys have already got one, dont worries.

All im going to do is scratch off individual codes and email them to you guys cos P+P on a piece of paper isnt so fun on my pocket.

So its simple the question i want you guys to answer is the following

What is a cat?

*hint* the answer is far less obvious than you think it is*

Just to clear things up these are the GTA things Atheistium was giving away on the Podcastle.
So the first 10 ppl to post the correct answer will be announced as winners.

Good luck

Wii Fit: First Impressions
Koopa13 | 7:02 AM on 04.25.2008 11 comments




So i went to pick up wii fit this morning and after a few hours hanging around at work i decided to come home and test it out.
So i get the board out the box and set it up and start away.
At first you will set up your profile and do a few tests to establish how crap you are, ala brain training style.
So after the wii has told me in the nicest way possible that im not in a fit shape it offers to help me.
So i start out testing a few of the activities.
Like brain training all of the activities are not available straight away, you have to earn points to unlock them, and the unlocking process is up to the game.
So i tried out a few yoga poses, one which relaxed me nicely and the other really gave my thigh muscles a beating.
Then i tried jogging (no balance board needed for this, just pop the wii mote in ur pocket and jog away), a bit of hoola hooping and then i tried the football heading game. OHHHHH boy did i suck at trying to head the balls.
I tried a few others i wont go into straight away, but to sum it all up, in the hour i have played so far it seems like a solid basis to help you get on track to being healthy. Although i cant see this game as helping u loose weight solely i can see it making a difference in your lifestyle. As long as you commit to this game and do it at least once a day for about 20 mins there is no reason why you shouldn't get results, cos trust me, you can feel it working :p

RUMORTOID: Europe Rock Band gets re-priced!
Koopa13 | 2:44 PM on 04.15.2008 11 comments


Well its a rumor at the moment but word on the street is a slightly unexpected statement from EA is meant to be announced tomorrow which will be the re-pricing of rock band. After a week of Europeans in rage screaming and burning down houses in rage of an overpriced rock band, it may seem that gamers will be able to have their pie and eat it.

However this is a big rumor at the moment and in my honest opinion i will be surprised if this does happen, after Harmonix released a nice statement a few days ago explaining to gamers that bitching about a price wont make it lower.

The rumored price is meant to be around the $270 mark (about £135)
Hold tight cos although this may sound crazily unlikely at the moment, something could develop soon.

Also, Cocks!
