Stargate Continuum

Blu-Ray

So I finally got it!

Photobucket

I ordered it from Here, based in New York  

It took excactly 10 days for it to arrive in my mailbox and I saved 17,40$/12€ getting it from halfway across the planet. Wicked!

So how is it? For me as a fan I had goosebumps. And it delivered. Could just like The Ark of Truth have been longer but what the fuck, right? It's great to see it. And the extras are good too. And I can assure you europeans out there, even if the spec on the box says Region A, it plays on Region B BR players. My player is my PlayStation 3. 

Now I need to get to work on completeing my Stargate Collection as I'm missing 3 seasons of Stargate SG-1 and all of Stargate Atlantis on DVD. 

(and then it's Farscape and Heroes I need)

The Tri-Force is complete!

Today I got a message on my phone saying my XBOX 360 Elite had arrived. So I got dressed to withstand the gray and rainy day and hopped on the first bus into town. Got off to check if the sneakers I want had come in my size (since the shoe shop had like a good price these days), but no. Which was abit disappointing since I need new sneakers (my old ones are like 3 years old). Anyway.. 

I wandered further into town and to the game shop and picked up my 360 with Gears Of War. And it's crazy, I payed exactly the same for my 360 that I did my Wii. 

Then I strolled to one of the shopping centers and picked up a mini espresso maker and some coffee, to keep my braincells happy this weekend with some good tasting coffee.

And then I as quickly as possible got to the bus back home, just picking up some light food before heading home. I wanted to get home quick before the rain got crazy. Upon arrival I had to think out a good place. I decided one of the DVD shelves was good, so I rearranged that and figured out the signal paths to the tv and speakers. some more remote fiddleing now but that's just fun.

And the Tri-Force?

PlayStation 3 - XBOX 360 - Wii

Annoyed Gamer September 16th

So last night I was watching Annoyed Gamer. Now shareing Teh Awesome.

Sign up and subscribe HERE!  It's free and everything.

To all PC gamers out there let's fight DRM! Seriously! Why the fuck do they put it on games that we PAY for?! I have no problem with a game requireing an online verification before you can play it but DRM has got to go. I'm not going to share my games. Buy your own damn games! I did so can you! 

What is DRM you ask? Well it is a limitation on how many times you can install a game. usually 3 times.Which is all kinds of fucked up. What if your maching has a major crash, or you decide to reformat and change OS? or for whatever other reason you need to reinstall it. Or if you buy a new computer and wants to continue playing there?

I have begun asking if a game has it before buying a game. 

And to those that pirate games: FUCK OFF! And that applies to both those that uploads them and those that downloads them. YOU are the reason all this crap is dumped on us that buy it.

The Big House Clearing

So the last two days I've been at my late grandmom's house, that has now been taken over by my mom(and my stepdad). And now they are renovating it top to bottom. And in that regard I've been there to help them out abit. 

My mom came and picked me up at about 12:30pm, then we went to the shop near here and picked up the needed food for the "project". Then we we took on the two hour drive there. Upon arrival we had a quick lunch and some coffee.

Then me and my mom went upstairs and sorted and tossed a shit load of stuff. Three bedrooms worth of furniture and old crap. Which mostly got tossed out the window. The end result looking abit like this:

Then we had another coffee break, With cake and simply had a breather. After the break was over me and my mom took the bags and put them ready to be put in the barn. Then we dragged&carried the rest down to the beach(not the white and sandy kind). Which was many walks up and down a steep kinda slippery hill. When we were done with that we sat down and had a breather, before we took all the bags up to the barn. Plus some other crap we took up there.

The we had dinner while waiting for the tide to go out. We had porkchops with potatoes and veggies and bernaise sauce. Yummy! Then we had almond pudding with raspberrysauce for dessert. Then chilled for a bit.

We(me, my mom and stepdad) went down to the beach and burned the old furniture. And looked out to the dark sea and and got some fresh air. The fire was kinda awesome.

Then we went back up at about 10:30pm and called it the night. 

I slept alone in the house that night while they slept up in their caravan. Lay in bed playing Sudoku on the DS until I fell a sleep. Woke up at about 9:30am, went downstairs and made coffee and made a fire in the oven to heat the house back up. Had breakfast and such. Then we packed down the stuff, they didn't want and that my aunts and uncles might want from the living room and tossed away everything broken. I grabbed some of stuff that I brough home. Plus we moved the bed I slept in to a different room. to make space for future renovation plans. 

Then we had dinner and rested for a bit. Then we went through the kitchen in the same manner as the living room. Plus we washed abit. Then at about 5pm me and my mom headed back into town. 

I got back home at about 7pm and sat down at the pc right away. and put on the heat. And discovered the lighttube in the bath had gone, couldn't be arsed to go down to the shop and buy a new one. Too fucking tired to do anything. So my bath is lit with a tea candle, cosy but very dark.

Now just sitting on my arse and being online. My hand hurt abit, probably a minor stretch. Not going to do a damn thing now.
