Rock Band Store launches, is awesome
The much-improved Rock Band store announced to the world yesterday is now available on Xbox Live and PSN. A 30-second download and installation gives players access to the streamlined song-buying interface, which features audio previews and individual instrument difficulties for each song, as well as a much simpler way to sort and browse through the growing selection of music.
Besides the cool new store, we're also extremely gratified by the much-needed faster loading of DLC provided by the patch. After a one-time file creation upon the first post-patch load, the annoying little "loading additional content" animation was reduced from roughly ten seconds to about one second in our tests on Xbox Live. The physical "download data file" that actually speeds up the process takes up a paltry 112KB on our system, meaning there's no reason not to rock out faster!

Entire TV Episodes and Movies at Hulu.com AND IT"S LEGAL!
Can you believe it. A place where you can watch tv and embed it on your website. They pay for it through ads (just like TV) and not all of them are full episodes. The most important thing is it's legal. IP tv is on the way folks!

Finished Bioshock and loved every minute of it!
So I got Bioshock for the XBOX 360 in October for my birthday. Since then about gazillion games came out that I wanted to play and I had, ya know, work. I finally took it from my pile of shame and unwrapped it. I played the demo, which was amazing, but something kept me from diving in. Probably the commitment.
This game is probably one of the best games I've played in years. The last time I was this drawn in by storyline and gameplay was the first Prince of Persia for XBOX. What can I say? The graphics are amazing, the art style is original, and it scared me out of my seat several times. The gameplay mechanic is a shooter first and foremost but has so many strategic elements to it that at times I felt like I was playing Mass Effect again. (Only it wasn't a chore) Everything in this game was so easy to pick up and yet was very challenging to finish. I love this game. If you have a 360 and you haven't played it. Make the commitment. It's worth it.

Whitboard Animation Starring ME!
When coming up with the 100 or more characters in the Whiteboard headquarters, we started looking around the office for faces. Turns out I made the cut for one of the feature animations. Take a look. This embed feature is part of the site. It's like UPS TUBE.
