Modracer Nation – Quick review

A few months ago I purchased a used copy of Modracer Nation for the PS3.  I have barely played it.  There are several reasons for this.  The first reason being it took forever to patch the patch the first time I tried to play it.  The second reason is the load times for each level are ridiculous.  It easily takes 5 to 6 minutes to load.  The load time has prevented me from getting very far into the game.  It is kind of sad that the game suffers from these issues as the game is pretty decent.  The game is very comparable to Mario Kart.

Shortly after I purchased I had with the game I realized it had an unused code for the game.  The code would unlock Sackboy for the game.  Thus far I have been unable to redeem it.  The publisher has brilliantly concealed the code with funky looking tape.  There is no easy way to remove it.  I tried to scratch it off, but that didn’t work.  I also tried to peal the tape off the paper, but the paper with the code came up with it.  I would try to complain to them, but they don’t seem to have a public email address.  Even if I could get a working code I wouldn’t be able to enter it.  The Playstation Network hack took care of that.

I give the game a 1.5 out of 5.

Fire Fox to loose the address bar?

Great now Mozilla is considering the removal of the address bar from the Fire Fox gui.  Instead of leading the way of new useful features they are following Google.  Google will be removing the address bar in their next Chrome update.  The whole thing is quite irritating in my opinion.  I do not like the idea of web browsers losing address bar at all, as I think it will making surfing very inconvenient.  Surprising that the folks at Apple aren’t the first to do this or even consider it.

I really like the Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes series on Disney XD.  For the most part I like it.  Although I do have one major complaint about way Disney is doing the show.  There seems to be no continuity to the way they are telling the stories.  They just seem to jump around a lot.  I spend a lot of time wondering if I have missed an episode or two.  It seems the second has just started, and I am confused now more than ever.  I am tempted to just drop it and to wait for it come out on DVD.

Dyson AM02 Tower Fan Quick review

Today I purchased the Dyson AM02 Tower Fan from Best Buy.   My bedroom is pretty small and it gets pretty hot during the summer.  I have been looking a fan that put out a decent amount of air but was still quite.  I figured that Dyson’s unconventional fan design would be both quiet and put out a lot of air.  Sadly it is not that quite, and it puts out last air that I would like.  I find this ridiculous as it costs close to 500 bucks.  I am most likely going to take it back.  I am not even going to bother with the smaller models.  For the price I would recommend this fan to anyone.
