Review: Sex Drive (2008)

Overview:

SexDriveA lot of people haven’t heard of Sex Drive for some reason, so I’m gonna go ahead and give a brief, informative introduction. Sex Drive is hilarious. That about sums it up, really. However, for the sake of taking up space and making my review look longer and smarter than it really is, I’m going to tell you a little more about it.

There are boobs, Amish boobs, sex jokes, sex, donuts, and a brief appearance by Fallout Boy. As you can tell from everything but the Fallout Boy appearance, which surprisingly doesn’t ruin the movie (I hate Fallout Boy), this move is awesome. Sure the whole road trip thing may be a little worn out, but it’s been a while since a road trip movie has been executed well and it’s honestly pretty refreshing to see one.

Review: Resident Evil: Genesis (BlackBerry)

Overview:

Resident Evil has, no questions asked, one of the most impressive histories in gaming. Since it’s inception on the original PlayStation to the soon-to-be-released Resident Evil 5 and everything in between, Capcom almost never lets down its ravenous fans who are craving some horrifying zombie action. Emphasis on almost.

residentevilgenesis

While there have been games to reach legendary status, there have also been duds. Resident Evil: Survivor tried its hand at first person shooting, and failed. Resident Evil: Dead Aim tried the light gun thing, and failed. Resident Evil: Gaiden tried making handheld gaming scary. And failed. All the games mentioned eventually got it right. RE4 nailed the art of shooting (though not in first person), RE Umbrella Chronicles was a great light-gun game, and RE Deadly Silence made the Nintendo DS a dual screen fright fest. But there is one terrible game that has yet to have anything good come out of it. Resident Evil: Genesis for the mobile phones. Ugh.

Review: Angry Whopper

It looks nothing like the picture

It looks nothing like the picture

Overview:

What is the Angry Whopper? Well, run down to Burger King, order a single whopper, sleep with it’s mom and spit on it’s shoes, and BAM! You’ve got yourself one Angry Whopper. Or, you could order a pre-aggitated Whopper while your at BK and save yourself some time.

The Angry Whopper is a spicier version of the popular Whopper hamburger which many people tend to prefer over the Big Mac or Quarter Pounder, as is one of BK’s major selling points. It has a bunch of new ingredients thrown on top to give it a spicy kick. Possibly inspired by the Volcano Taco, the Angry Whopper is made to satisfy the taste-buds of those who love a spiced up meal.

Feb. ’09 Indie Band of the Month: Renae

Renae. I almost don’t even know where to start with these guys. The first time I saw them play live was January 2nd, and I instantly had a new favorite local band. Consisting of front man Stephen Rosborough, drummer Adam DeWitt, guitarist Ben DeWitt, and Brad Pigg rockin’ the bass guitar and one helluvah beard, Renae puts on one unique and refreshing show.

L-R: Stephen, Brad, Adam, Ben

On stage they are full of so much energy, but it isn’t depicted through over-the-top antics and lollygag dancing. Instead Stephen’s subtle hand gestures, which have a hypnotically crowd pleasing effect, and truly innovative and energetic tunes keep fans entranced throughout the entire set. The quality of their music doesn’t stop at the stage, either. Their first album, “The Coward, The Storm, & The Outlaw” is in near constant play on my iPod. The brilliant lyrics and powerful music shows that the boys behind Renae know how to pour both heart and soul into making music.

Review: Pirates: The Key of Dreams (WiiWare)

pirates-the-key-of-dreamsOverview:

Publisher: Oxygen Games
Players: 1-4
Genre: Action
Cost: 1000 Points

A 10 dollar game about pirates? Hell yeah, sign me up! Along with zombies, ninjas and Hulk Hogan, Pirates are one of the many things God put on Earth to make life for us mere laymen more worth living. Unfortunately this may not be the game you want it to be. When I first heard of it I didn’t think there was any way it could be anything other than awesome. Well here we are, ten bucks later, and I can readily admit that I was horribly wrong.

Review: Amp Energy Focus

Overview:

Earlier this week we reviewed Lightning, a drink with disappointing attributes all around yet provided a monstrous kick that was, admittedly, short lived and followed by a mild crash. Now we’ve got yet another new flavor from Amp, Focus. The drink’s flavor is Blast of Mixed Berry which sounds delicious. But Lightning’s lemonade flavoring also got us excited just to turn out tart, bitter, and artificial. Does Focus prove to be an Amp product finally worth buying or does it slip into mediocrity with most of its sister drinks?

Straight from the can:

Bring your mind to a whole new level to keep connected, focused, and alert. Sharpen your game – The power of Amp Energy with a Blast of Mixed Berry and a kick of L-Theanine.

Sounds promising, but what the hell is L-Theanine?
