There's Too Many Of Them. I Can't Kill The World

by Rainier on Jan. 3, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PST | Filed under MOTD

Well, that's that with that. The holidays are over, so it's back to the grind.

Things will probably be quiet for a little bit longer, but normal coverage will now resume. Hope you have enjoyed our Top Games of 2010 feature, and we are currently also having a DC Universe Online beta key giveaway (for both PC and PS3 codes), which will be ending soon. Be sure to have a go at it.

Yesterday was pretty subdued. We ran some errands and watched TV for the rest of the day. We got sucked into the Pillars of the Earth miniseries and two of the Millennium Trilogy movies.

We Must Forget If We Want To Go On Living

by Rainier on Jan. 2, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PST | Filed under MOTD

The New Year has begun!  We had a relaxing NYE, no craziness, and yesterday we spent most of our time watching movies (Predator, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince) and a few episodes of Supernatural.

Today will be equally quiet, apart from doing some grocery shopping, we have nothing planned, so we'll have done quite a bit of catching up on our DVR over the past few days. Go us!

We've been debating about upgrading our phones and switching to the iPhone, but we've been waiting for Verizon to announce their version. However, my current cell was getting on my last nerve (battery kept dying after 1-2 calls or text messages) and on our way back from the movies earlier this week, we decided to get it over with and we got ourselves a pair of Droid 2 phones. We picked that one over the Droid X because it works internationally, and now we get to play Angry Birds wherever we go!
