I could not pass the really nice weather today.  It was really hot for the last day of September, (Sept 30, 2010.)  I had to give my 2006 Yamaha XT225 a wash and a wax.  It have not giving my bike a wash since July.  When I was done and putting it way I ended up getting some mud in it, lol.

Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare

Posted in Just something to say, Pictures with tags , , , , , , , on September 29, 2010 by getbent57

The new DLC called Undead Nightmare for Red Dead Redemption will be out soon.  I my guess they will have it out soon since Halloween is about a month away.  It will cost $10.00.  They say it will “feature an entirely new mostly single-player campaign that follows John Marston as he tries to find a cure for the highly infectious zombie plague that has spread across the frontier.”  I think they are putting out a trailer out tomorrow.  The have four screen shots out, it looks pretty cool.  Might pick it up.

Superman/Batman: Apocalypse Review

Posted in Review's with tags , , , , , , , , , , on September 28, 2010 by getbent57

Just watched Superman/Batman: Apocalypse.  Went to buy it at Wal-Mart today but I could not find it.  My guess is they didn’t put it out or sold them all.  I can’ see them selling out thou.  Any who I will check tomorrow.  I ended up “renting” it because  I wanted to see this new DC Universe Animated movie.

I really liked this movie.  It is much better than the one, Superman/Batman: Public Enemies.  The story was much better.  Its looks great and there are bits of comedy in there as well.  The best part is the big fight scene at the end.  It has to be the best they have made yet.

This is another awesome DC Universe movie.  They make them for the fans and you will not be disappointed.

Old Top Gear

Killing some time on YouTube again and found lots of old clips from the old Top Gear show.  The show was more about car reviews back then.  Jerry was still funny as hell.  Some one has an account called ysivboi1 with about 158 clips.

DeathSpank: Thongs Of Virtue Demo

Gave the DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue demo a try today.  Wanted to see what was different from the first DeathSpank game.  It plays the same, looks just as good they just added more to it.  All so add guns as well.  It is more of the same with is great since the first game is awesome.  I can see myself buy this one too.  This is how a download game should be made.  Pick up and play fun with lots to do for a good price.

Enemies & Allies: Book Review

Posted in Review's with tags , , , , on September 25, 2010 by getbent57

EnemiesAllies Finished reading the book Enemies & Allies: The Dark Knight Meets The Man of Steel. I really liked the book.  It read like a TV or movie.  The chapters were broken up into one for Batman and the next for Superman.  Also the chapters were short but that’s a good thing.  The story moves along at a good pace.  Didn’t take long to get into the good action.

This is a great read.  It might seem a bit simple read but is fun.  I like this kinds of novels.  These books are like comic books with out the comic part.  I think the stories can be flushed out more.  I enjoyed reading this so I give it high marks.  Its only a book for fans.  I can see it bringing new fans in.

Robin Hood Review

RobinHood Just finished watching Robin Hood, the new one starting Russell Crowe.  This is a much different story than past Robin Hood movies/TV shows.  I have to say it was much better.  Made it feel more real, made this was how/if it really happened.  The whole scope of the movie is great.  It is a bit long thou, about two and a half hours.  Over all this is a very nice watch.  Will not blow your mind but not ever movie has to be ground breaking.

This version of Robin Hood is different then the past version.  Which is a nice too see.  On the download side its a bit long.  Might not wow you but its a good rent for sure.

The Tester 2

Posted in Just something to say with tags , , , , , , on September 22, 2010 by getbent57

The PlayStation Network’s The Tester is coming back for a second season.  The first season was pretty good.  I hope they up production values this time around.  Not saying they were bad just felt a big rushed.  Of the 12 new cast some of they look like some really “winners”.    I watched some of their videos and wow some of the people do not stand a change of winning.  It show will start airing some time this fall.
