PURE PANDEMONIUM

I have a new You-Tube account called “The Philthy Drummer” where I’ve been posting up videos of myself drumming! Since I’ve recently lost my job, I’ve been doing this, as I finally have a camcorder and time to do it! I will be posting drum solo’s covers of songs, and anything else I’m imspired to do!

Please check it out and watch, rate, comment and subscribe!!!

The Philthy Drummer -- That's me!

This game never ceases to amaze me. The line between in-game and CGI is becoming more blurred with each title’s release. Check out the latest video. Release ETA: April 2010. Can’t wait!

Go to FinalFantasyXIII.com for the video. The youtube versions were crappy quality. >.<

The sexiest Final Fantasy character ever, "Lightning."

Whilst pwning some Jaedenar demons in Felwood on my level 54 mage, Philthy, I discovered the greatest pop culture reference in World of Warcraft. While looking through my quest log for the next series of bastards I had to kill, I noticed a quest in Un’Goro Crater I had yet to complete, titled [Aquementas].

Description

“Take this bag of supplies with you to Tanaris. Travel to Lost Rigger Cove, and look for a circle of stones.

The eastmost peninsula is the secret…

From this circle only, read from the book of Aquor; summon the only creature that can transform the items you collected into a totem to fight Blazerunner.

Aquementas will not be pleased to be awakened, but remember, you must remain in the circle for him to transform the items.”

Legend of Zelda Reference in WoW

 
In the Legend of Zelda for NES, one of the first caves you enter stands an old man surrounded by fire uttering the words, “Eastmost Peninsula is the Secret”. I love catching these pop culture references that many glance over because they do not take the time to read the quest text!
Check out an extensive list of all the pop culture references in WoW!

Gotta love Brentalfloss. His latest video is Super Mario Bros. 3 With Lyrics and is todays “Lol of the Day”! He is known on YouTube for making lyrics to old games such as Megaman 3 and Tetris. He has plenty of other hilarious videos to check out. His latest videos are contrated through ScrewAttack, and you can also see his other videos on his YouTube channel, BrentalFloss.

"Let's drink some beer and then pass out!, Word!"

The Windows 7 Release Candidate goes live today. Be sure to check that out. They’ve made a great deal of improvements since the beta. You must have a dvd burner or an image mounting tool such as Daemon Tools to run the “.iso” image file. Download and installation instructions are available on Microsoft’s website. 

It's 7 times better than Windows 1.1

Check out this awesome song/video of the Miss California controversy and other topics made by Mike Gregory. This is one of the funniest videos I have seen in a long time. For a second I could swear it’s actually T-Pain, LOL.

A new study concludes that children can become addicted to playing video games, with some skimping on homework, lying about how much they play and struggling, without success, when they try to cut back. 

In what is described as the first nationally representative study in the United States on the subject, researcher Douglas Gentile of Iowa State University found that 8.5 percent of American youths ages 8 to 18 who play video games show multiple signs of behavioral addiction.

Ok I have to post about this one, since I am an avid gamer and have been playing video games since the NES days. First of all, yes there have definitely been times where I have fibbed about how much time I played video games, or saying I didn’t play, when I really stayed up all night playing Ultimate Qix for SEGA.

Can kids become addicted to video games? Probably. Can it be as unhealthy as an addiction to cigarettes or alcohol? Probably in extreme situations. I grew up in a generation where kids still played outside all day when it was nice and stayed in glued to Super Mario World when it was nasty out. Today kids won’t go outside if there was a sign saying “FREE PIZZA!”. No, instaed they stay inside no matter what the weather is,  just to get their game time in. 

Grrbllgrbbllll....Guitar Hero.....grrbblrrbblll

Back in the early-to-mid 90’s you didn’t have the selection of consoles, PC’s, and handhelds that you do today. 

I don’t think its an addiction issue as much as it is a “parents not taking the reigns and making their children play outside” issue.

“But there are outside environments in World of Warcraft, isn’t that good enough?”  

And you wonder why your child is fat…

As the title of today’s LOL of the Day suggests, cats indeed do not fax well, no matter how hard you try. I wonder if you can fax a goat? /random.

Maybe email would have been the ticket? Cute kitty.

In our new series, LOL of the Day, I bring you a video on You-Tube that was just awesome to say the least.

In the recent flutter of the Republican “Boston Tea Party 2″, popular CNN correspondent Anderson Cooper clearly put his foot in his mouth talking about “teabagging”. Obviously he doesn’t know the true meaning of the term. (It’s at the end of the video).

Now that patch 3.1 is live, hopefully I will get some pictures and information from Ulduar and the new Vault of Acharon boss, Emalon the Stone Watcher. 

I currently have a level 80 Night-Elf Rogue and a level 40 Gnome Mage. Below are pictures. : ]
