So Apple recently released this new laptop, the Macbook Air. Above is the ad for it. Nice song.
And this is an accurate representation of what I think of it. Should you get it? Why don't you instead use hundred dollar bills you've lit on fire to ignite several roman candles clenched in your teeth. I assure you it's a better investment.

The demo for Devil May Cry 4 was highly 'meh'. It might be worth a rental. The graphics look very much like upscaled last-gen. The gameplay also seems stuck in the past. Oh, but wait I can hear the Capcom PR dude now, Nero has got the devil-bringer which brings in whole new levels of depth. Um, no. You use it in context sensitive parts to pull yourself to a ledge or something else which is required of you to progress the incredibly linear gameplay. Even Spiderman 2 for the Playstation 2 had a more fun and useful mechanic to pull yourself across sections of the level and drag enemies towards you. Try harder, Capcom.
There was an article on Eurogamer last week that talked about how Smash Bros Brawl comes as a dual layer dvd and that some people's Wii's have too great a dust buildup inside for the laser to read the disc. Essentially what they're saying is that you have to blow into your Wii, or use a can of compressed air to clean it out. I knew this day would come ladies and gents. We have gone full circle now. We have traveled back to five generations ago and just like in the NES era we now have to blow into our consoles to get games to work. The article is here. The circle of life is complete.
It's Super Tuesday today, not that most of you care. That means its a huge day in American politics. If I were American, I'd vote for Obama. I'm just sayin.
