EGM adventure

Oh, let me recall my adventure for you. I went to Lafayette to hang with my sister for the weekend, on Monday I went with her to work to see her office in the city. She works for a magazine called EGM (I had a subscription to that magazine for years when I was younger, so it meant a lot to me to be playing games in their office). I went up and was expecting a little tour and then I would be on my way. No, I was wrong, the lady my sister interns asked if I would like to play some games, I was like OK, the big boss man Dan Hsu, the editor in chief, was out for the day, so they set me up to play in his office. I asked for some unreleased XBOX 360 games, they gave me Sega's Full Auto that comes out Feb 18 and THQ's The Outfit that doesn't have a release date yet. The 360's were black in color and are designed for review companies and the games looked like they were burned games with hand written Titles. I really enjoyed Full Auto and played through several different modes and then I only played The Outfit for a shorter period of time, but had fun. Probably would have played all day, but we had to go to lunch and my sister really had to get to work.

New MacBook Pro and iMac powered by Intel


What are you doing reading my blog, you should be heading over to an Apple.com to pick up 1 or both of their new products. Today at Macworld Apple introduced an update to the PowerBook now called the MacBook Pro and iMac with Intel Core Duo chips inside. Yes, you read that right, Intel chips in a Mac. It is a day to celebrate for a PC user like myself, because you will be able to run windows on it too. I have been waiting for this moment for a long time. The new MacBook Pro starts at $1999.00 15.4 inch, 1.67GHz, 512 MB, and the iMac starts at $1299.00 17 inch, 1.83 GHz, 512 MB. [BUY NOW]
