Pet Shop Boys – West End Girls

That day of the week again, musical throwback Thursday.  Have picked another Pet Shop Boys song this week.  It is their very famous song, West Ends Girls.  According to Wikipedia the song was released twice.  First as a single and then off their 1986 album Please.  Think it holds up well.  You can give the video a watch/listen > here or below.

Injustice Trailer

Am a big fan of the Injustice: Gods Among Us comic series.  Which is based off a video game series of the same name.  Well have found out they have turned the comic book story into a movie.  Which is titled, Injustice.  The movie is rate R, which is a good thing since the story needs to tell it properly.  You can check out the trailer > here or below.  It does look good.  The only thing I find in the animation is inconsistent.  We will found out soon enough because it it set to be out October 19, 2021.

Pet Shop Boys – Always On My Mind

Once again it is musical throwback Thursday.   Have all ways know Always On My Mind by the Pet Shop Boys as an original.  Turns out that is not true.  The song has was first released back in 1972.  Since then it has been covers by many famous artiest, like Elvis and Willie Nelson.  Since writing this post listened to those versions as well.  But I still like the Pet Shop Boys one.  Which you can see/hear > here or below.  That is off their 1988 album Introspective.

[Update posted this a day early.]

Saints Row Reboot

There is a new Saints Row game on the way.  They are calling it a reboot because it is set in a new location and with new characters.  It will be set the American Southwest.  One of the cool features is it will have untethered two player co-op, even on the PlayStation 4.   The game is set to be out on February 25, 2022.  You can check out the announcement trailer > here or below.  I think it will be a fun game.

Dr. Alban – It’s My Life

That day of the week again, musical throwback Thursday.  The 90’s were filled with songs like It’s My Life by Dr. Alban.  Where there is spoken word/rap mixed in with a female voice doing the chorus.  That being said a lot of them a still hold up.  Not sure if this would be one.  You can judge for yourself > here or below. This is off this 1992 album One Love.

No Man’s Sky Frontiers Update

This past (August 9, 2021) was the 5th anniversary for No Man’s Sky.  On that day they teased a new update called Frontiers.   Well it is out today (September 1, 2022).  I have it downloaded but haven’t tired it yet.  Did watch the trailer which you can see > here or below.  This update lets you become an overseer of a settlement. In which you can build up, customize and make money from.   They have all so update the build menu as well many bug fixes.  It doesn’t look pretty cool.  Oh, another thing I am happy to see is they added more save lots. It went from 5 to 15.  Going to give it a try a little later today.  Will be back with an update.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge – April O’Neil

There is some new news on the new Ninja Turtles game, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge.  They put out a new trailer which you can see > here or below.  It shows off a new player character, April O’Neil.  They all so said the game will be out in 2022.  Think I will be buying this when it comes out.  I has the look of the classic with the modern stuff.  Just hope they give us a release date some time soon.

Gotye – Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra)

Once again it is musical throwback Thursday.  The pick this time is Somebody That I Used To Know by Gotye.  It is hard to believe this song is ten years old now.  It was and still is a huge hit.  Has over one and a half billon views on YouTube.  the song is off his 2011 album Making Mirrors.  One of those songs that gets stuck in your head as you sing along.  You and give it a listen > here or below.

Eiffel 65 – My Console

That day of the week again, musical throwback Thursday.  Picking another Eiffel 65 off their 1999 album Europop, My Console.  While it is not the great song in the world.  It is a nice love letter the original PlayStation.  Which was a huge hit back when this song was made.  You can give it a listen > here or below.
