I love my 360. It's got a great game lineup and future releases look to keep that pattern going through the end of 2007. However, in recent weeks I've become gradually less and less thrilled about my console. Not because I've fallen victim to the red ring of death, mind you, (however it does freeze up 4 out of 5 times that I'm playing) but because of all the BS that Microsoft is feeding us.

There are so many places that try to satire a Steve Jobs / Apple keynote but I've not seen one that even remotely came close to capturing the essence of Steve Jobs presenting a new product. The SNL skits, for as amusing as they can be, are a joke (no pun intended). Whoever it is who plays Jobs needs to do a little research. Or any, at all. They could stand to go a little less overboard. What was it, the iPod Invisa that holds 11 billion songs? Something like that? Gag me. But I digress...

I've been waiting for a side-scrolling beat-em-up game on XBLA for awhile now, absolutely pumped about Castle Crashers. Definitely dropping the cash to get it once it's released. Xbox Live co-op FTW!

Since lately it seems there's been an influx of people speaking out against those things they don't like about what's going on in the community, I figured I'd jump on the bandwagon / soapbox and chime in as well.

Boobies.

Today I was amused to see an article on Gizmodo about the Zune and what turns out to be a somewhat gimped wifi feature. For those who don't know, I work as a Mac Specialist (sales and general wealth of knowledge person) at the "local" Apple Store, so if you want to write this off as fanboy / biased banter you're welcome to but I would like to think of myself as non-partial to a platform or product because of any brand loyalty, I just get what I think is the best product due to the information that's available to me.
