Blu-Ray on Xbox 360 announcement Quickie

By Blackwalt - Posted on 09 June 2008

How many times have we heard this?

Rumoured

    ...MS will upstage Apple with a Monday 9am PDT announcement (1 hour before WWDC) via press release that the Xbox 360 will get Blu-Ray before Christmas. ... The announcement would apparently be timed to upstage Apple's Worldwide Developer's Conference which kicks off an hour later in San Francisco.

Debunked

    There is nothing to even talk about [Blu-ray Xbox 360 plans] right now with regard to the next generation. That is so far out that there isn't anything to talk about.

How hot is it?

And yes, I think its funny and well done and it has the entire "Winnie the Pooh" cast.

Eeyore, as always, is my favourite.

Die Stormblade

By Blackwalt - Posted on 05 June 2008

Nothing suspicious at all

    Stormblade (while playing GRAW 2 with Coxxorz and Blackwalt): Something about my death seems suspicious. I didn't see any enemy around me at all. It was like that grenade had "Die Stormblade" written on it.

Coxxorz: Wasn't me. I don't even have grenades up.

Blackwalt: I was no where near you. Although all my grenades do have "Die Stormblade" written on them. No idea how that happened. Coincidence.

More Dell Whoring...

Dell Canada IncYeah, it's another Dell Days of Deals event... hopefully this one won't suck as bad as the last one. This one is being touted as "The People's Choice Event", presumably based on what people wanted to see on sale. But since they've never asked before, there is a helpful voting area at the top of the page. I guess that means these deals are the Dell employees choice. Read more
