[Energy Drink Review] MonaVie EMV Energy Supplement

MonaVieEMVOverview:

A while back I got my hands on a couple of cans of Verve, an extremely healthy energy supplement with powerful antioxidant attributes. Compared to other similar products, I thought Verve was probably the best energy supplement out there. But that was before I tried MonaVie EMV. Continue reading

[Drink Review] Private Selection Sparkling Lemon Soda

pslemonsparklingsodaOverview:

Those of you who know me exclusively through my reviews here on Everyview may not be able to tell, but I am very elegant. I have very high class tastes that can be satisfied only by the finest tobaccos and rarest wines. The tobacco must be smoked out of nothing less than pipes carved from ostrich bones and the wine is only to be sampled from diamond cups crafted by the most skilled jewelers in the world.

Enter Private Selection Sparkling Soda. It’s expensive and comes in a weird-looking glass bottle, but does it tickle my prestige? Continue reading

[The Everyview Update] 6/28/09

We’ve got a couple of new features to announce this week. Some of you may have noticed that we have incorporated a rating system of 5 stars at the bottom of each post. These stars ARE NOT our scores. The stars are there for you to rate each article, whether it be an editorial, news, or a review, and help give us some extra feedback so we can figure out what you like to read.

Also, we have brought back the categories section. Pick what you want to read about in the list of categories to the left, click it, and see only posts that fall under that topic. We did this because we know not every movie buff cares about the latest game releases, and not every energy drink addict cares about the latest CDs.

I’d also like to remind all registered members to upload a custom photo through their Everyview dashboard.

Special thanks to GoNintendo for featuring our The Conduit review and pushing traffic!

poster_startrek-posterAnd man is it insane. There is seriously a (space)ship load of extra content planned to release alongside the “Star Trek” DVD/Blu-Ray which is tentatively scheduled for an October 5th release date. But tentative dates rarely stick, so just keep an eye out for the date to change.

To see the full list of extra content included in the package, click the ‘more…’ button. The list is far too long to include on the front page. Continue reading

Michael Jackson Dies From Cardiac Arrest

michael-jacksonConfirmed by the L.A Times and NBC News, Michael Jackson, perhaps the most influential figure in the world of pop music, died today at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, California from cardiac arrest.

He was taken to UCLA Medical Center after a 911 call was made from his California home reporting that he had collapsed, initiating a full alarm response. When medics arrived, reports say, he had already stopped breathing and was immediately rushed to the hospital in a deep coma. By the time he arrived, his pulse was gone and doctors worked vigorously to revive him, but their efforts were sadly in vain. Continue reading

[Game News] GTA: Chinatown Wars Loses DS Exclusivity, Heads to PSP

A short while ago we posted a review of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, the first game in Rockstar’s renowned open world franchise to come to the Nintendo DS, and it was exclusive to boot. Emphasis on the word was.

gtachinatownwarspspIn a strange out-of-nowhere move, Rockstar has announced that they will be taking the critically acclaimed DS game to the PSP. I am almost positive that this decision was made the game’s disappointingly low sales numbers, but I’m not sure the game is going to do any better on the PSP. Continue reading

[CD Review] Marcy Playground “Shapeshifter”

Overview:

marcyplayground shapeshifter“Shapeshifter” is the follow-up to the band’s self-titled premiere album which achieved platinum status and rocketed the band into temporary stardom with its biggest single, “Sex & Candy.” If you’ve never heard of Marcy Playground for any other reason, I’m almost positive everyone reading this review has heard that song.

With no “Sex & Candy,” to drive sales of “Shapeshifter” beyond the stratosphere, most people have never heard of this album. This obviously meant less commercial success for Marcy Playground’s second album, but critical acclaim was higher and more deserving than ever. In fact, many critics including myself consider this to be the best album Marcy Playground has ever released, which makes it a shame that the album is so obscure.
