Left 4 Dead is Valves most recent game and their first foray into zombie action. It is also the most heavily co-op dependant game i’ve played in quite some time. The game itself was great when it first came out last year. However, it did have 1 serious issue. It was extremely light on content.
Resident evil 5 is the long awaited follow up to the groundbreaking Resident Evil 4 on the gamecube. The initial video for resident evil 5, however, was met with all sorts of negative press regarding accusations of racism. Well the game was released and has since sold millions of copies worldwide. Has the gameplay evolved? Is the game truly racist?
The xbox 360 is Microsofts second foray into the world of console gaming. The original xbox was killed off after a scant 5 years. This, along with Microsofts less than stellar reputation in the PC software world, leads to many fears about the long term viability of the 360. On top of this the failed experiment that was the original xbox begs the question, ‘can Microsoft really compete with the Sonys and Nintendos of the world?’ Read on to find out.

There was a time when “programming” HTML was the job of a child: create a table, add some lorem ipsum, some images with vertical alignment tweaked a little, and (god forbid) an iframe or frame set. Javascript was cryptic and served the purpose of altering the status bar of your browsers and generally just be annoying.
Along came CSS… Now everyone in their right mind would greet CSS with flowers and as a liberator. Freeing us from the work of creating layouts and individual styling of each element that you want to look the same across many pages. Another great benefit of it is that you can swap style sheets in 1 go and have a completely different looking layout (even modifying some content at times)!
Today is tax day and apparently thousands of Americans have decided to use it to protest our egregious taxation system. How? Tea parties! That’s right the tea parties which conservative news outlets would have you believe are grass roots political movements have been going on all day all over the country. Apparently the best way to protest is to emulate the act that kicked off the revolutionary war…. how wonderful. I seem to recall being taught in history class that the Boston Tea Party was to protest taxation without representation. In short that the Americans (who were actually British) believed only their own elected officials could tax them.
Green is the new green. Companies everywhere are now latching onto the green bandwagon, as consumers become more and more conscious of the state of the planet. However, just like the breast cancer pink ribbon before it, is this new green movement in business just another way to cash in on public opinion?
Where to even begin…..
Twitter is now a certified phenomenon. It seems everyone is talking about twitter and tweeting. It’s gotten to the point where even news organizations are talking about it and using it. As we all know twitter is an instant notification system which allows you to give updates on what you’re doinog at any given time. In other words, now you can know when your friends are taking a shit, drinking coffee, or pretending to work. What a wonderful age we live in.
Killzone 2 has been out for over a month now, so you might ask yourself, “why review this now?” The simple answer is that this site didn’t exist back then. While that’s true, I also wanted to really give the game a lot of time and a thorough play through. Well, after finishing the game on veteran and achieving max rank in multiplayer i feel confident enough in my assessment of the game.

A review site with a slightly negative bent. In other words, we love to hate.
