Bad News and Money With Swagger!

Sorry I didn't post yesterday but I slept all day then I went out to eat with my girlfriend!
Some of you may not find the bad news so bad but most of you PS3 users will find it horrible! I don't know if you've heard but Twisted Metal, which was supposed to drop on October 4th, has been delayed to an unknown time in 2012(presumedly within the first three months) . As a subscriber to the PS3 blog I was one of the first to read this and I was shocked mostly. Apparently the developers said that its just not ready yet which sucks because I bet it would have been the perfect Halloween game. There is some good to this horrible news. In my opinion it's good that they have recognized that it wont be done and have postponed it to make sure that when it does release it is perfect rather than rushing to get it done by the previously specified date and then it be half assed if you know what I mean.
If your wondering what the heck money with swagger is wonder no more! Its this site I found called Swag Bucks.com. I know what you might be thinking,"they are paying me to advertise" but that's not true. I truly love this site! what you do is you search on it just like you would on google or yahoo. Every time you search you have a chance to win digital money aptly named Swag Bucks. When you get enough you can trade them in for prizes or sweepstakes entries. I have already won several amazon gift cards and I have purchased a ton of music from the Swag Store. If you still think I'm being paid I promise you that I'm not in any way being influenced buy the them and this is not some kind of spam trying to steal your identity! Check it out at http://www.swagbucks.com/

The End Draws Near for Disc Based Gaming!

OK.. well maybe its not that near but by my estimate we only have about 10 years left maybe more maybe less! I was reading an article over at my favorite gaming site, IGN.com. It was about how disc based gaming will eventually be phased out and whether or not it's a good thing and it made me think. It made me think about how boring getting a new video game would be if that really happened! There would be no thrill, all you would have to do is click download. It would demolish the excitement of picking a freshly wrapped game off the shelf and squinting as you tried to read the tiny letters on the back. It would take away the ever growing anticipation as you drive home with your newly purchased game. It would relinquish that feeling of pure harmony as you tear the wrapping off and open the case for the first time. And the worst part of all.............you wouldn't get to smell that wonderful smell of a brand new booklet!!! That may sound strange to some of you but I know of a lot of people that are like that including myself. It's just that the smell is like nothing else just like Apple products. If you order anything from Apple like cables, iPods, computers, they all have this very distinctive smell that is just amazing. Again I know its strange but you know to each their own... right??!!
Now back to the subject! Do I think that all digital gaming is a good thing?? Definitely not!!! First and foremost digital gaming is still fairly unsecured!! Some of you may not agree but think of it this way. As our knowledge of the digital world grows so will the hackers so even if we think we found a fail safe way to keep hackers out it probably wont last forever! There is also the devices capability to consider. If the new devices aren't built properly you could face crashes, freezing, and slow download times. While I'm sure they will be built with a higher quality than they are today, nothings perfect. The last thing that makes me dislike digital gaming is that you wont have to go to a store anymore. This goes for books as well. My favorite store has got to be Barns & Nobel! You can grab a Starbucks and then just take you time and relax as you look at all the different books. If that went away because of the digital world I don't know what I'd do. The video game equivalent would be Game Stop. Isn't just exciting to walk into a Game Stop and see wall to wall games!! Well I think I've rambled on enough and I'm sorry if I bored you but that's just how I feel about Digital Gaming! As always PLEASE comment and follow!

Here I Am by Kelly Rowland and Other Exciting News!

Kelly Rowland's new album was finally released on the 26 last month! After a much anticipated release, especially by me, it doesn't disappoint! Every track is solid gold from the beats to the lyrics and at only $11 for the deluxe edition you can't go wrong! There are currently only two singles on it, Motivation and Commander(feat. David Guetta), but I'm sure there will be more in the future(there always is)!
Strangely enough she has the only new album worth mentioning right now, but Kanye West and Jay-Z's new album, Watch the Trone, will finally drop on the 8th. Its going to be AWESOME!!
The exciting news is that I really like Kanye West and Jay-Z more than I thought I did!! I don't know why I thought I didn't like them? Man Was I wrong!!!

I was thinking that I havent really established a schedule for posting yet so here it is!
I will write on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday! I will try to write about something different on each of those days(music, electronics, video games)! The most Important stuff will of course come first and if I must I will mix the subjects! If I write on any of the days not listed above then it should be considered breaking news! I hope this helps and as always PLEASE comment and follow!!
