Logitech G5 Laser Mouse and G15 Keyboard

December 4th, 2005 | Comments Off | Posted in Gaming

Well, I finally now have the mouse and keyboard combination that I have been waiting for. I picked up the impressive G5 Laser mouse and the G15 Gaming keyboard. Now hopefully I can find some time to play some games and use them for what they were designed for. Here’s the basics on those parts:

The G5 Laser offers the ability to adjust the weight and balance to win your game! Also it gives you the edge with a 2000 dpi laser engine sending out an astounding 500 USB reports per second for precision response at blinding speeds.

The Logitech G15 keyboard offers gamers an unprecedented level of in-game information, programmability and control. Its adjustable-tilt, backlit LCD display shows you crucial information during game play, and lets you set timers to keep track of game events.

Motley Crue’s Carnival of Sins 2006 Tour comes to Halifax

December 3rd, 2005 | Comments Off | Posted in Music

Motley Crue’s “Red, White and Crue” reunion tour proved to be one of the biggest concert events of 2005. Now, Motley Crue continues their assault on North America with the brand-new 2006 edition of “Carnival of Sins.” Tickets went on sale today for Halifax and there was no way I was going to miss their March 2nd appearance. So off I went to get in line at one of the local ticket outlets early this morning. A slight delay at the ticket counter put the location I was at behind in the selling. I didn’t get floor seats, but I did get pretty decent lower bowl. The countdown begins. I can’t wait.

KMFDM Live Tonight at the Attic

October 8th, 2005 | Comments Off | Posted in Music

I can’t believe it. One of my favorite bands is playing locally in Halifax… Got the tickets, concert in 2.5 hours. Sweet.

KMFDM - Hau Ruck

UPDATE: After a delay of over a couple hours, the concert got underway. The show.. amazing. It was a tight, heavy show filled with a killer playlist of tracks. After the show the band hung out with everyone signing shirts, dvds and anything else that people wanted signed. It was great seeing the band hanging out chatting with people until everyone had met with them. Definately a night to remember.

Megadeth – The System Has Failed

September 20th, 2004 | Comments Off | Posted in Music

Now I really should have posted something on this last week, but I’ve been too busy with work and listening to this incredible new CD from Megadeth. The System Has Failed is simply put one of the best Megadeth CD’s. As mentioned a few months back, Megadeth’s other studio CD’s, minus The World Needs a Hero, have be remixed and remastered. Each album comes with bonus tracks, a write-up by Dave Mustaine and is much improved over the original. For tracklistings of the albums, check out this page I put together.

Aliens Vs. Predator R-rated DVD

August 22nd, 2004 | Comments Off | Posted in Movies

I just saw this over at Superhero Hype. This info comes from a Q&A done with the film’s writer and producer Paul W.S. Anderson. Here’s the info:

About the studio’s cutting of the film, which he had no control over, he said, and I quote, “All of the best scenes were cut.” Anderson was obviously very annoyed at the way the film was released. However, this was not purely because of the PG-13 limitation, which incidentally, the studio enforced three weeks before the release date! It was always going to be R until then. Part of the reason for the cutting was that some of the effects were not ready by the time the release date came around. The effects team had very little time to do anything.

As far as the content that was cut, apparently we see all those who die, die on screen, but he also said that there is a sub-plot that we will have to wait for on DVD. Yes there will be an R-rated Director’s cut DVD although they don’t know the release date yet.
