I just bought Champions online the New Super Hero MMo by cryptic Studios. So far I'm enjoying my time with the game. This is my real MMO since starting to play wow. These are my early impressions. I think in a month or I'll do a show talking about how my thought about the game change as i level up. 
Well today UGO bought 1up.com and then proceeded to layoff 40 staff members. Many of those staff members were responsible for the 1up show video podcast, and the various 1up podcast. Seriously what the fuck.. they bought the 1up brand, but the brand is known for their other various forms of video game media. Which fostered a strong user community that gathered around that media. Only time will tell how this is going to turn around such negative publicity. I just downloaded the Super Monkey Ball game for the iPhone and have to say it's pretty fun. Not sure yet if it was worth $7.99 but time will tell. The controls use the phones accelerometer to control the game and at times can be extremely frustrating to get a good feel for. I don't think I'll be paying for many more apps or games after this because the ease with which I spent $7.99 on this seems like something that could become a dangerously expensive habit. Even $.99 at a time can add up quickly for cheaper items. So if you can go with the free games. I recommend Scramboni, a word puzzle game that pits you against other players and Lock n Roll, a dice based game that is simple yet addicting. Tap Tap is also a good one. It's like guitar hero for the iPhone. Until next time kids....

Today I was attempting to enjoy a stimulating round of Call of Duty World: At War, Then everyone on my team starting screaming at me. I couldn’t realize why I was near the top of the score board for my team, I wasn’t stealing last stand kills and even I was calling out to my teammates for precise tactical movements. Then I realized that my teammates weren’t hearing commands all they could hear was blaring static from my headset being fried.
Thankfully with some mild foreplay with my headset I was able to get the bugger to work. Seriously I know that the Xbox 360 isn’t the most stable piece of hardware but is there anything on the damn thing that doesn’t break. I know this is a fairly common problem on top there is the Abyss of decency that is Xbox Live. As much as I enjoy the service that it provides, between 13 year olds cursing like sailors, Bros named Chad hating on African Americans and homosexuals, and lastly African Americans hating on anyone else it makes me wonder why I even bother with the headsets on Xbox Live. If only there was a way to electrocute offenders over Xbox live headsets, but till we integrate population control as legislation I think I’m not going to worry about the thing unless I’m in a party. I wish Xbox allowed the option to allow blue tooth function, which is a lot more reliable and little more discreet then wearing the white plastic telemarketer headset from 1975.
