Winters Almost Here and Christmas is Not Far Behind... 2006-10-30 00:11:00 Brrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...Well now that I'm in a warmer part of the country the "Bitter Cold" won't bother me as much as it would normally... But I spend most of my time sleeping and working in one place in the house that is not heated and instead of buying an expensive electric oil filled heater I am thinking of going for the Kandle Heeter... It's a pretty cool idea and very cheap, tho I am not totally sure how well it works but looking at it I can see where the theory would come into play... Check out the pic...If you go to their site you can see how simple it is and you could probably make one yourself and save a couple of dollars... Kandle Heeter Homepage...

Transperformance Guitar System... Now This is Really Cool... 2006-10-04 03:10:00 For my fellow guitar players out there I ran across this on another site and was immediately dumbfounded... I never thought this would ever become reality since the days of when Tom Sholz of Boston (the Band) and Sholz Research & Development, Inc. (makers of the Rockman and other devices) was trying to come up with a way to electronically compensate for a Guitar
String that was out of tune during a performance... Needless to say he never did...Well along comes Transperformance with a Guitar System
that along with a computer and small motors for each string can with the touch of a pad tune your guitar to any tuning you want in a matter of seconds... It's not cheap but you could use one guitar during the gig and never have to switch to one with another tuning... Read more... Here's a video with Graham Nash introducing the System then Dave Beegle of the band Fourth Estate doing a nice live Demo... Watch the Video here...Now if I only had the kinda of money that thing must cost I'd have

Ice Planet Coming to a TV in Your Home... 2006-09-22 11:40:00 For all my SciFi Nut readers all two of them... Oops include me so that makes three...I ran across this site awhile back and kinda forgot about it but after reading a Tid Bit on Slice of Scifi my brain got *Rocked* and I thought I better get it on here before I totally forget it forever... So far it seems it's mostly an idea for a new series starring one of my fav actors Michael Ironside (I like the Bad Asses he plays)... The rest of the actors have not been named yet but it's being done in Canada like most of the SciFi Channels original Movies & other Series and it seems there will be a Video Game of the theme, tho I don't think I could play an entire game that is based on a Planet of Ice, kinda dull and no fun as far as I'm concerned... There's not alot of info on the show yet but you can check out the "Ice Planet Fan Site"... Read more here...Now to the *Rocked* part, I was reading an interview with Dwayne Johnson (yeah *The Rock*) on Slice of Scifi and he does a few Q&A's abo

MMO Video Game, what's that you say, well it's a "Massive Multiplayer Online Video Game" of course..."Mutliverse" is behind the idea and you can Read more...You a real Fan of Firefly

We could have just added a Video Section to LifeTime Gamer Arcade, but with all the games we intend to add plus over 13,000 Video's we have in the Video Database I figured the site would get bogged down with traffic and start to slow down and I want our visitors to have the fastest loading times and enjoy both sites...LifeTime Gamer Video also updates every night so there are new video's to watch each day and you can do a browser refresh and see new ones displayed all the time...

"Alien Shooter" from MOONPOD... 2007-09-23 18:19:00 The gang that brought us Mr. Robot is back with another futuristic offering...AlienShooter
has the same 3rd person perspective view as does Mr. Robot... In my opinion the graphics are not quite as good but that doesn't hinder the story or the game play, what does bother me tho it's more me than the game is the control system with the arrow keys, oh well by the time I'm done with the game I should have it down... hahahaha One thing I see that doesn't hinder the gameplay at all is all the "Clipping" of objects and the weapons and your characters arms when they sometimes go right through walls and other obstacles, I'm sure the developers can fix their collision detection without any problems... It's a fun Shoot'em Up anyways...So without further ado here's a Screenie and Link to the game...A

Sony did this with a few Music CD's and when it was discovered they were in a lot of hurt from the public... Read more on Sony's Rootkit Caper...If you don't know what a "Rootkit" is, well you can't find it on your PC and it is extremely painful to get rid of besides it allows them to take control of your computer anytime they wish...

Mr. Robot Review... 2007-05-22 13:04:00 Well I finally got other things done and had time to play this cool game...After the first few minutes I was reminded of the 1972 movie starring Bruce Dern, Silent Running and his 3 lovable robots so that's going to be the base of the 2 questions for the contest but more on that later...I don't play many 3rd person 3D games but the entire look of this game including the opening cinematics are very well done and consistent from level to level, MOONPOD has done a great job with this game... One thing I had trouble with was getting used to controlling 1138 using the mouse, but that's just me hehehe... Basically you have a task or tasks to complete before you can move on to the next section of the ship and they get progressively more difficult as you get farther into the game...The PDA interf Read more:Robot

The Ultimate Guide to Video Game Degrees and Careers 2007-04-10 20:27:00 Nice title I wish I had written it but alas I did not... Jimmy Atkinson from the OEDb that's "Online Education Database" sent me an email today with the link to the well written article by Bradley Schenck on this topic... Bradley as you may now was the Designer for "The Labryinth" and also former Art Director for the Dreamers Guild...The conclusion of the article is something I knew from being a musician for so many years and working in the graphics industry for so long... "There is Stress" that goes a long with these jobs and usually there is no way around it, if you can get in touch with people in the industry and see what they have to say first hand..."ConclusionPerhaps the ultimate guide to video game degrees and careers is to inform you that you can burn out in this industry just like Read more:Video Game

One instance a Certain Site in the rotation was constantly trying to send me an email and I'm assuming it also was trying to read my Outlook Express Address Book, Wrong! I don't use Outlook Express hahaha (Foiled)... The other instance was with another Blog Traffic Service and this time the site immediately disappeared and a Pop-Up shows up saying I had some weird Malware/Trojan on my system and I need to go to their site to get rid of it which is not true since I keep all of my Anti Virus and Malware Programs updated constantly (they just wanted me to Pay for their Product to get rid of it, which in fact it was not on my machine in the Read more:Blogger

We Have Added Another Site to Our Small Web Based Family... 2007-02-24 22:28:00 I have recently acquired ExchangeBanners.org from a friend and have redone the color scheme and layout a little bit and now I'm spending a lot of time promoting the site... Basically it is a site where you sign up and upload your banner then insert the code in your site and you earn credits from people visiting your site, thus your banner is displayed on other sites for people to click on... You can also buy "Credits" to increase your traffic...Along with this acquisition I now have lifetimegamer.com after a few problems with someone who thought he was going to basically do what I had already done using this site...
