It's late but I'm still up, ask why...I'm still having jetlag from out flight. The hubby is still up, playing and perhaps trying to be one of those zombies. He's been going on like this for days since he discovered this addicting game. I say addicting because my kids are hooked in this too. Despite my warnings because I really don't like them playing such games, the kids told me how the game is played, showed my how they kill zombies and what would happen if they aren't successful. As a game lover and one who doesn't believe in ghosts or the dead coming back alive and one who abhors spiritism, I am torn. Honestly, I am so not recommending this game, especially to kids. And because it is ...
Nikon WP-CP1 Underwater Housing
I can tell that the hubby is excited to go scubadiving. He's been babbling about it for weeks now. Yesterday, he received what he's been waiting for for this adventure. He really plans to dive and capture what's down under. Let's see if he can get as much as the famous turtle... ...
ModNation Racers
Following Little Big Planet is another game where users can generate content sharing and level creation tools online. ModNation Racers is a kart racing game where players are able to drift and accelerate...much like earlier games as Mario Kart, Chocobo Racing, Sonic Drift and the likes. Players can sideswipe other racers, boost their speed or enable shields to protect them from other racers' attacks. Much violent I say, players can collect weapons and upgrade them as the game progresses. That's why this game is mostly played by hubby. Just like Little Big Planet, there's a lobby where players can meet, create characters and download stuff, it's named ModSpot in the game. The Modspot is an ...
Macbook Skins
Meet my buddy, snow white, I mean "maki," my macbook! It has been 3 years since I got this as a gift from hubby, and he got me one of the pretty macbook skins I like. I've called it "maki" and you know that when you name something you get attached to it, I did. Maki has since undergone some 'operations and parts replacement. Once for having bathed with milk (credits to the little boy), for being made into a piggy bank (little boy put some coins in the cd slot) and for just dying out while we were on a far away vacation. Ever reliable hubby revived maki on all those instances (handyman!), yes even when I thought that the dying out phase would be the last I'd see of maki. I have to thank ...
Little Big Planet 101
One of the games I gave the kids a go signal to play is Little Big Planet. They get to be creative choosing or making a character and the fun starts then and there. So you need to create a character from a Sackboy or Sackgirl - named such for having a texture akin to a sack -- they actually look embroidered and I've attempted to create one over the years. No luck...or no time. There are a lot of real video game characters that players have tailored. There's Cloud from Final Fantasy, there's Sephiroth and Reno too. There's Snake of Metal Gear Solid, Mario, Wolverine, Spiderman, or the lead in Assasin's Creed. Our favorite of course would be from another favorite game, Locoroco. I actually ...
Wii Balance Board and Wii Fit
We've had the board and the Wii Fit game for some time now but I haven't really written a review about it. Three words, We love it! Hubby and I enjoys it both, I could do step dance, hula hoops and yoga while he goes snowboarding, his favorite sport....see below he would even gear up for the feel...despite being at home. :) As promised, the Wii Balance board helps those who wants to improve posture. The idea behind the board, which appears like a bathroom scale is to detect the COB (center of balance) of the user. Once detected one continues to play games that focuses on the cob thereby improving posture...This follows medical findings that having good posture and balance makes one ...
