Gearheads of War

Yes. You heard me right. They are making a mega man movie. Live action style. Not much else to say. Here is the trailer. Enjoy.                                                                                                  

We have reached day 3 of the New Xbox Experience and Netflix is the talk of the town. But just how good is it?

My roommate bought a subscription for Netflix and after trying it today...we weren't impressed. Now the internet in our apartment isn't great but it has never held me back while playing online.

Our issues included a somewhat long wait time initially (about 10 minutes), then the movie pausing and going back to the Netflix screen because of a "slowed" internet connection. After another 5-10 minutes the movie resumed with youtube-like quality.

I'm hoping it's just our internet, but does anyone else have issues like this?

And on that note, what are your Netflix impressions?

I'm working on a little side project and we need some info! For those willing, please post the name of the state you live in. That's it! It's just that easy. No worries about us giving this info to anyone else (duh) but if you are unwilling, don't feel obligated.

So if you would, please post the name of the state you live in and if you live outside the U.S. please post the country and region.

I think you will all really like what we're doing with this info. =)

Thanks, all!

What the ad in the middle of Gearheads right now is for?  I just clicked on it out of curiosity and it seems like it's a viral marketing campaign.  The site they built is pretty freaking cool though.  For a second I thought I'd downloaded a virus.

Zoid!  Congratulations, Zoid on winning the second raffle of prizes for donating to Gearheads of War.  I've been passing along the funds to Jon who helped put up the revised version of Gearheads of War.  

We'll be putting what you've won in the mail very soon.  Never fear those of who that have donated and haven't won already (Degrees and Zoid were the first two winners), will be entered into the next raffle once we hit the next target goal. Details on the next donation drive will be coming soon via a Blankman post. Thanks to everyone who has donated and helped to make this community so special.

Of course it was bound to happen again, my Xbox bit the dust, no big deal.

I thought that anyway. Tomorrow marks the 3 year anniversary of Microsoft's ridiculously faulty video game console and also the expiration of the warranty. Gears 2 is a great game, I love it, but honestly I just don't care as much for video games as I used to. Not only is it my senior year in high school and I have a lot more freedom now that I have a car and a flow of cash. I'd hate to say it, but I may have grown out of video games. Ever since I was 4 I've played video games. Hell, the first game my dad bought me was Doom for the Sega Genesis. Games just aren't appealing to me as they were before and now that my Xbox is trash, I don't feel the desire to replace it anymore. I'm sick of it.

So with that, I plan on leaving behind my 360. It has caused way too many problems and the amount of discs it has broken isn't worth it now. I won't be quitting games for good though. I'll still try to get on occasionally (my brother has an Xbox) and I'll still try to participate in Gearhead shenaniganry, but no longer will I play Xbox like I used to.

It's time to close this dryer. The t-shirts are done.

Sincerely, Joey Leen

The man knows how to do it right.

Watch the video.

Okay, so I just got Left 4 Dead, and here are my initial impressions...

Can it be?  Gears of War 2 has only been out for two weeks and yet, I get the feeling that a lot of the Gearheads community isn't just dipping its toes in L4D, but they're diving right in.  Unfortunately I won't be able to make FFF tomorrow night.   My wife and I are going out on a date and I get to see Quantum of Solace.  

But I wanted to open it up for folks to say below what they'd like to play.  Would you prefer L4D or Gears 2?  Sign up below, state what time you'll be on and what game you'd prefer to play.  Maybe folks can even play both tomorrow night?

Just so you know, I was going to run my personal review of Gears 2 this week and then I decided I was going to wait one more week.  Then I realized next week is Thanksgiving.  So I plan on running the review the first week of December.  I'm making sure I put it off long enough so I can talk about every element of the game without having to worry about it being a spoiler.  That's my update on that.

Sign up for FFF and have fun tomorrow night.  I'll miss playing with you this week.

When I went to turn on my xbox today, I happened to glance by the window, and see a million snowflakes fall from the sky, only to melt on the ground. Almost made me want to go outside instead of playing Left 4 Dead. This is the reason I feel sorry for people that live in parts of the world where they don't get to have snow. Happy Holidays everyone.  

Please...

Who's played it so far?

Do you love it?

Are Gearheads going to be playing this for the next 2 weeks or for the next few months?

I am looking for a second game (after Gears 2).  Payday was today.  Money in my pocket.  Gamestop on the Horizon.

So what do I choose?  Is it COD WAW or Left 4 Dead?

And Who has gotten it already?  Is it going to be added to the FFF mix?
