The GPS devices finally arrived – the “new” m3 to replace my broken one, and a Garmin Nuvi 200 for the office. For those who don’t currently own a GPS device, I would say this is the perfect starter device. It has a couple of features, including the fantastic routing software, ability to use maps [...]
The Bouncer is a beat ‘em up by Square Enix. Yes, the very same company that brought to the masses Final Fantasy after Final Fantasy brought an arcade style game to the PS2. In fairness, they also did make one of the best racing games on the NES, Rad Racer. The story is roughly such: [...]
