Command & Conquer - One for All

Seventeen years ago the very first Command & Conquer game was released. Since then there have been a number of games released in this series. If you purchased each of these games as they came out, then most likely you cannot play them on your current generation computer, especially if you try to play them over a network. Well EA has done us all a favor. Not only have they updated the games for Windows 7 / Windows Vista, but they have bound them all together in the Command & Conquer The Ultimate Collection.

NDK - Ten Must See Streaming Anime

A short update for this one. I attended a panel led by Jason Moses of Otaku-USA magazine. To open the panel, Jason described the major services available for watching streaming anime. The big three services are Hulu, Netflix, and Crunchyroll. Of these, Jason recommended Hulu as the service with the best variety of shows. He also noted that last year, Netflix had a very strong selection of anime available. However, the selection on Netflix has been reduced lately. Finally, he discussed and showed short clips for ten shows that he recommended watching. Here are the shows that he recommended watching along with a brief synopsis.

NDK - Additional Panels

To wrap up my NDK Sweet 16 experience, I'll be discussing a bit about some of the other panels I got to see this past year. There were a lot of panels to choose from this year, but of course with limited time frames, other panels occurring at the same time, interviews, eating, etc, there's no way I could get to all I wanted. That's okay though as I felt that the panels I did attend were interesting and had a good time at them.

Borderlands 2 Review

Shoot.  Loot.  Repeat.
 
After playing the crap out of the original Borderlands, I have been anxiously waiting to get back to the world of Pandora.  Gearbox and 2K Games have created a sequel in a way sequel's are supposed to be made, it's better.  Borderlands 2 improves in every aspect over its predecessor making it a truly enjoyable experience.  Fans of the original will no doubt want to check out the sequel.  If you never played the original Borderlands, that is okay, you can still jump in with two feet.  If you are a fan of shooters and loot driven games, do yourself a favor and buy Borderlands 2, you will not be disappointed.

They refused to accept the imported tea of Britain, and instead of letting them take it back home, they tossed it into the harbor.  But is this the whole story? Have we been told everything that happened? It does not appear so, and we will get the full story on Halloween.
