I was just reading ilsul6ana’s blog, she posted a video showing Libya’s Muammar Al-Gaddafi calling for a boycott and jihad against Switzerland. the comments there looked like they have no idea what the whole story is.
The recent Gaddafi outburst came after a stupid Swiss law forbidding the building of anymore Minarets. Even John Stewart found that idiotic.
Of course that not the only reason, Gaddafi’s son was arrested last year while he was in his hotel room in Switzerland for assaulting his “servants”. Big daddy soon replied by cutting off oil sales to them.
I just wanted to shed some light on the story, I don’t want people to blindly side with either Gaddafi nor Switzerland.
I only did one previous post in this category, and it was eons ago. This week I got another chance.
While browsing the net, reading some news and reviews on the new PS3 game Heavy Rain a lot of people were comparing it to Indigo Prophecy what some called the greatest video game ever. I realized that I never got to try out the game. and while I was clicking through Steam’s website. I found it the $10 section and thought why not, it was the perfect long weekend.
I downloaded the game and installed it and got around playing it Thursday night. The game doesn’t have much gameplay but rather a plethora of action sequences where you have to press certain buttons as they appear on the screen. But don’t get me wrong that is not bad at all, it blends well with the game.
It took me 2 days to complete the game with moderate playing time (4 hours a day) and really loved it.
Indigo Prophecy™ is an innovative adventure game that tells the story of Lucas Kane—an ordinary man who unconsciously commits a random act of murder. Through the use of branching storylines and multiple character perspectives, players embark on an immersive adventure on par with a Hollywood thriller.
Retro Rating:
Modern Day Rating:
5 years after its release, Indigo Prophecy is still an awesome game and is highly recommended.

Cop Out
Two longtime NYPD partners on the trail of a stolen, rare, mint-condition baseball card find themselves up against a merciless, memorabilia-obsessed gangster. Jimmy (Bruce Willis) is the veteran detective whose missing collectible is his only hope to pay for his daughter’s upcoming wedding, and Paul (Tracy Morgan) is his "partner-against-crime" whose preoccupation with his wife’s alleged infidelity makes it hard for him to keep his eye on the ball.
Cop out should be released in Kuwait (according to Cinescape’s) in March 11th.
The Karate Kid
In Columbia Pictures’ "The Karate Kid," 12-year-old Dre Parker (Jaden Smith) could’ve been the most popular kid in Detroit, but his mother’s (Taraji P. Henson) latest career move has landed him in China. Dre immediately falls for his classmate Mei Ying—and the feeling is mutual—but cultural differences make such a friendship impossible. Even worse, Dre’s feelings make an enemy of the class bully, Cheng. In the land of kung fu, Dre knows only a little karate, and Cheng puts "the karate kid" on the floor with ease. With no friends in a strange land, Dre has nowhere to turn but maintenance man Mr. Han (Jackie Chan), who is secretly a master of kung fu. As Han teaches Dre that kung fu is not about punches and parries, but maturity and calm, Dre realizes that facing down the bullies will be the fight of his life.

In the old days, video game looked like crap. The only thing that they had going for them was gameplay and music. The gameplay aspect ended when you stop playing the game but the if the game had a catchy tune. you’ll be humming it all year.
This is probably the most recognized Mega Man theme song, the Dr. Wily theme is a stellar example for the magic that was made back in the 8-bit glory days.
