  Some Reviews & A Bit Of News

  Hiya party people. Hope everybody is doing well. Just a "drive by" blog here, nothing too big.

  I've writen 2 reviews recently. Both were posted on EndSights beforehand and are now available for your reading enjoyment right here on this very website. First one is for The Sims 3, which I found to be a fantastic game (which I should get back into), and the other one is for Ghostbusters: The Video Game, which I found... a little less fantastic. Actually, I'm rather disappointed in the final product, although the online is quite brilliant in its own way. Give them a read-over and tell me what you think.

  Speaking of EndSights (shameless plug GO!), we have tons of stuff going on at this very moment over there. Don't forget to check us out and give us your undying support once in a while. We promise you some pretty cool articles in the next couple of months, so stay tuned.

  Other than that, I've been playing a ton of Tiger Woods 10 with my good buddy Mr. Art "Birdy" Green. The game is very addicting and quite fun to play, especially online. I've downloaded Point Lookout, Fallout 3's most recent downloadable content expansion, but I haven't gotten around to play it yet. Blame Tiger for that.

  That'll do it for now. Expect a video blog some time this week. Until then, keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars. Long live the King of Pop!

  The King Is Dead. Long Live The King.

  I know there are probably a dozen or more blogs on the subject, and that the internet has exploded in the last couple of hours with this news, but I felt like writing about it. Michael Jackson was, after Elvis and The Beatles, a tremendous influence in my life, musically speaking. I am paying my respects to a man who was an icon and a living legend and, if that is so bad that I get moderated or blasted to piece for it, then so be it.

  I don't feel like talking about Michael Jackson's problems with the law. I also do not feel like talking about the ongoing changes in his appearance, or the way he treated his sons and his daughter, or his marital problems.

  What I feel like talking about is how this tremendous performer and inspired genius influence music culture. Back in 1982, when I was just 11 years old, an album called Thriller came out and revolutionized the music industry, while shelling out number one singles at a staggering pace. Michael Jackson became a household name, as his music was coming out of every radio and stereo for miles around. I clearly remember watching him perform Billie Jean at the Motown 20 show and going nuts. The Moonwalk was born.

  You know how the story goes, so I won't bore you with the rest. The King of Pop has left us, and today, the music industry has suffered a tremendous loss. He had sold out 50 shows in London, which were about to start in July, and was on the "comeback trail". Sadly, that trail has hit a tragic dead end, no pun intended, obviously.

  Rest In Peace, King of Pop. Your legacy will never be forgotten.
