Xbox 360 Slim 250GB review

I took the leap, fucked around and got the Xbox 360 “slim” 250GB . I already had the Xbox 360 Pro 60GB for about two years and even though I didn’t need to upgrade I felt it was time. The wireless controller was fucked and I had 300 something bucks burning a hole in my pocket. You, may ask why I didn’t get the PS3 and I would answer, there’s no games for the PS3.

There she is, in all her glory. The first thing i noticed was this xbox 360 weighed about the same as the old one. The box was smaller though and the packing was some futuristic shit, I thought I was in the year 2030. Here’s a flick.

Alright it wasn’t all that, but the black bumpers was a change from the pervious model. Enough about that here’s the dirt on the Xbox 360 Slim 250GB:

There’s talk that the power brick is huge. It’s no bigger than the last model, matter fact I think it’s smaller. The hook up is simple and a breeze. I use a HDMI cable and once i disconneted the old one, i was in business. The console is black and shiny, the controller is black and dull. You have a choice of placing the console horizontally or vertically. I went the horizontal, only because my tv stand is not high enough to place is vertically. ‘They’ meaning Microsoft, advises you NOT to move the console while the disc is spinning (no shit…) so if you find you rather have it vertically then turn power off, remove disc and move upright, or vice versa.

The hard drive is right of the power button towards the back, be sure you to push the hard drive in before you turn on the game. Yes, I did not do this step and was wondering why it said ‘profile’ isn’t found. The rumor is you can buy transfer cables to transfer your old stuff to the new console, I personally, just step up a whole new profile. There’s two USB ports up front, I plus when you have the recharger back and use to hate that the cord when to the back.

The console is some what quieter than the old one. Not much a difference if you ask me, it still makes a sound. One thing I do hate but understand why is why not included a recharger pack. I know they make money on accessories and the markup is not great on consoles. I used my old white charger pack, I’m not a pansy so it doesn’t matter to me to be mismatch.

In closing I highly recommend Xbox 360 “slim” 250GB , even if you have an old Xbox 360. The power brick is smaller, so I’m sure it produces less heat, it’s shiny and black, I mean if you have chicks coming over they will love it. Why do think the Wii went Black?

HERE’s an update:

after playing Xbox 360 “slim” 250GB for a few days now at an average of 2 hours per day. I must say it is MUCH quieter than the old model. Another thing I forgot to mention is the power and eject button is motion sensitive. meaning you it’s sensitive to your touch, matter fact you just barely place your finger and it respond. it’s cool.

How to beat the vegas odds vegas nightmare

With the football season right around the corner, and to all of us who seek an inside edge on the spread. I have found something that has the online bookmakers shaking in their boots. “The Vegas Nightmare” is attracting media attention from everywhere. If you haven’t heard of it, i’ll break it down for you:

A market where millions of dollars are being made every day is getting bigger in the US and there are a few people not too happy about it. Making money could not be harder for most people out there, but evidently there are a number of people making big money, and some big companies out there are doing their best to keep it quiet.

Break before you get Broke

Break before you get Broke

If Vegas and online bookmakers didn’t already have enough to worry about with the slumping economy, the newest threat to their bottom-line is creating a massive frenzy around the world and people are lining up to start waging the assault. What is now being called, “The Vegas Nightmare” is attracting media attention from everywhere.

When taking a closer look, it’s understandable why they are trying to minimize the exposure, the impact on the bottom-line revenue of several operations is estimated to be in the millions of dollars a day! The mass appeal of the business starts with the fact that clients are doing the business from their homes, they are not selling anything, and appears easy to get started, the catch is, they limit the amount of clients they bring on, and nobody knows the magic number. The company does very little marketing, if any, yet, we have verified they have clients literally in every corner of the world.

It gets even more interesting, when fishing around for more details about the impact the company is having on the market, there were several prominent players both online and in the US who refused to comment, an industry source, said,

“Take a math genius, take a billion-dollar market, eventually they are going to find a way to get their piece of it. We just didn’t plan on him having clients.”

It is unclear at this time how long this will be offered to the general public but the frenzy has officially begun in the US, with no end in sight. To get a first-hand look at this hysteria, go BREAK THE BANK

Police Women of Broward County

Follow the lives of four strong women in TLC’s new series Police Women of Broward County at 9:00 pm Pacific time on Thursday nights.  These hard charging, hard hitting women take down criminals while caring for their families and friends.

Andrea Penoyer is an intelligent 26-year old who uses any tactic necessary in order to take down criminals daily.

Julie Bower is a 48 year old detective and mother of 3 who works the night shift tracking down murderers, rapists, and gang-bangers.

Ana Murillo is 29 years old and works in the most dangerous parts of Broward County in a surveillance unit waiting for drug deals and other crimes to occur.  Once they do, this hard charging woman sets out to prove that she is as good as any man on the force.

Shelunda Cooper is the legacy-cop rookie at 25 years old, following the footsteps of her twin sister.

These women give the cameras glimpses into their professional lives as well as their personal thoughts, but every minute of every episode is more than entertaining.  The viewer feels the adrenaline rush as these women take down criminals with force and escort them to jail.  Deep throated screams of “GET DOWN!! DOWN ON THE GROUND!!” will have you out of your seat begging for the suspect to take a swing at these women so you can watch them kick the shit out of these belligerent crooks.

 Don’t miss this ground breaking series that provides an unprecedented look at women in law enforcement.  Next time you see a female cop, you may want to think twice about what you think you can get away with, because if they’re anything like these women you will regret providing resistance.

2009 Little League World Series Finals

The bases are loaded, game tied 10 to 10, with no outs in the bottom of the 6th inning; Batter takes the box and looks the pitcher in the eye, a look of grit and determination beyond his years piercing the thrower’s resolve.  The pitcher winds up and flings the ball towards the plate at 70 miles per hour, but it’s wide to the left.  The catcher leaps towards it, trying to save his team from defeat, while the pitcher runs to home plate to stop the winning run from scoring.  Unfortunately, the runner on third sprints home with his head down and gingerly taps home base to win the game.  The boys in blue leap up and down in celebration while the boys in yellow hang their heads low and tears flow from their eyes as they realize defeat.

This isn’t a new movie coming out this fall; it is the end of the semifinal game between Chula Vista, CA and Warner Robins, GA in the Little League World Series.  These games have been fast paced, hard hitting, and full of defensive double plays.  This tournament will make you want to get up out of your chair and cheer in the middle of your living room for your favorite team.

Mad Men New Season 16/08/2008

Set in 1960s New York, the sexy, stylized and provocative AMC drama Mad Men follows the lives of the ruthlessly competitive men and women of Madison Avenue advertising, an ego-driven world where key players make an art of the sell.

Returning for its second season, the Golden Globe®-winning series for Best TV drama and actor will continue to blur the lines between truth and lies, perception and reality. The world of Mad Men is moving in a new direction — can Sterling Cooper keep up? Meanwhile the private life of Don Draper becomes complicated in a new way.  What is the cost of his secret identity?

Created, executive produced and written by Weiner, this drama series stars Jon Hamm (We Were Soldiers), Elisabeth Moss (The West Wing), Vincent Kartheiser (Angel), John Slattery (Desperate Housewives), Christina Hendricks (Kevin Hill), and January Jones (We Are Marshall) along with guest star (and stage/screen legend) Robert Morse (How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying). Michael Gladis (Third Watch), Aaron Staton (The Nanny Diaries), Rich Sommer (The Devil Wears Prada), and Bryan Batt (La Cage Aux Folles”) round out the cast.

The Premise: The series revolves around the conflicted world of Don Draper (Hamm), the biggest ad man (and ladies man) in the business, and his colleagues at the Sterling Cooper Advertising Agency. As Don makes the plays in the boardroom and the bedroom, he struggles to stay a step ahead of the rapidly changing times and the young executives nipping at his heels. The series also depicts authentically the roles of men and women in this era while exploring the true human nature beneath the guise of 1960s traditional family values.

Check out the new series of thirteen video featurettes that will get you up to speed on all the lies, scandal and intrigue behind the show.  Watch The Best of Mad Men Season 2.

Its about time for me to start tv for men

I’ll be the first to admit, this shit has been for a lack of a better term, total bullshit. I was using feeds to populate the site, because of unknown reasons. I have a lot of time of my hands so there’s not one reason for me to put the much needed time into this site.

Enough of that. I will showcase what WE as Men like to see on TV, some of this stuff we won’t agree on, that’s life, though. I’m not a natural born writer, I’m going to write how I usually talk, get use to it. If you have suggestions, let me know. Use the contact form.
