Blimey! It's Slimer!

I recently acquired a collected comics edition of the old Blimey! It's Slimer mini strips that used to appear in the weekly Real Ghostbusters comic, published by Marvel UK. Each strip was mainly half an A4-sized page, but later promoted to a whole page in some issues.

This version of Slimer has its own unique take and on off extra characters exclusive to the canon. Mainly, this was just a humor slot like the newspaper funnies.

Fiendish Feet Advertisement (1988)

I had a few of these Yoghurt pots/toys. They doubled up as villain characters for my Real Ghostbusters toys to battle against. These blended in well and provided a great set of scary skittles for Ecto-1 to smash into. Good times!

The Old Republic-Great game, hard on my wallet

Yesterday I purchased Star Wars: The Old Republic for my PC, a Star Wars game that takes place thousands of years before the movies. It plays great, very addicting. I see why people are jumping over from World of Warcraft to it, especially since it's a subscription based game and the expansion possibilities are endless. Great for Star Wars nerds such as myself.

However, to run this game I sunk over $200 into my computer. I'm not complaining since my pc has higher end parts in it now. But don't expect to play this on a lower end machine either, at best you'll end up paying maybe $70 on a decent video card to run it. Don't expect to run it in high video specs either though if you pay that little for a card.

My final judgement? Great game, that fact that the game costs $60 then an additional $15 a month is a little pricey but it is an MMO after all with the Star Wars brand. Updates will also follow, as well as support for an already incredible looking game.

What is "DUBSTEP?"

I get it. It's a series of electronic sounds that are used to make music. Like in this video.

But every time I hear those sounds, I picture Michael Bay's Transformers moving in slow-motion. Am I the only one?

Dream Car? I think so!

I'm idly searching the internet and what should I find?  1958 Ford Ranch Wagon "Ectomobile"

Star Wars Episode 1 3D Tonight!

Elder Scrolls: Skyrim A Piece of Gaming Art

So a few days ago I purchased Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, the video game that everybody has been saying is great and looks awesome. I gotta say, the hype was dead on. From when it was first revealed up to it being out on the market. You basically play as a dragonborn, a human who can use dragon power in the form of a "shout" like ice breath and fire. Your trying to find why dragons are returning after being dead for a very long time.

But it isn't the story that makes the game so great, it's the visuals and graphics. The mountains of the fictional region of Skyrim instead the world of Tamriel. It's a giant open world game with tons of quests. Dragons fly around and swoop down to attack you on sight. Giants roam the lands with Mammoths. The game is truly one giant piece of computer animated art, and very addicting to play.

Royal Rumble 2012

So last night I ended up going to a party to watch the royal rumble, it was a friend of a friend's house. Lots of surprises, basically Road Dogg ended up making a return into the ring for it. nobody really knows if he's back for a while or if it was a one time thing. Jerry The King Lawler and Booker T ended up in it too. Micheal Cole also was in it, but seriously, what did it matter? The very first winner Hacksaw Jim Duggan also was in it. Basically none of them went far. Sheamus ended up taking the win for a title shot at Wrestlemania. Both CM Punk and Daniel Bryan defended their titles. Very fun seeing some of the old timers make a return, even if it was for just one night.

Walking Dead Returns In February

So the second part of the second season of Walking Dead is set to resume next month, February 12th. A new teaser trailer is up!

http://www.amctv.com/the-walking-dead/videos/on-air-trailer-the-walking-dead-returns

It clearly looks like Shane and Rick's fights are still going on, and the huge issue is still who the true father of Lori's child is, Rick or Shane. I have a bad feeling it's Shane's. Anyway, I'm looking forward to when the show returns to TV, seeing as how its the only show I've been able to really get into.

Stuck On Loop: Bored Man Overboard's "Rogue."

It's been a while since I have posted and I apologize for that. Somethings have happened for the best and for the worst since the last post and this post. It's a factor of life that sometimes you just don't have the time or the ability to get what you want to do in and all that jazz but it's now a new year and I am about 20 posts behind with keeping up with where I want to be but that can be easily changed.

Today's the day I start and try to get back to where I want to be. It's also a day after my best friend, Sean, turned a year old. Sean helped me develop my taste in music and introduced me to The National.

Today I am going to introduce you to Bored Man Overboard (check out here: http://boredmanoverboard.com/ ). I think this band, from what I can see, is fairly new. Not a whole lot on the internet to get information on who or what this band is but it definitely reminds me of The National. Very relaxing instrumentals with soothing vocals. Very interesting lyrics too:
"Oh, ninth grade
What could have been?
If I would have told you already back then
I was afraid of might have happened
I should have waited for you, not my friends
Well it’s easy to be smart now, isn’t it?"

Definitely worth checking them out and giving them a listen. I'd also say that their album, "Rogue" is worthy of a purchase to add to your playlist.
