Over these past year, I have been reading a lot about cord cutting and the true cost of it compared to cable and satellite services. All these media outlets like to spew numbers over how much it would be to subscribe to all these cord cutting services and how much it would be to subscribe … Continue reading

Hurricane Irma Is Coming
So this is what I’m dealing with right now living down here in Miami, FL. Hurricane Irma is heading straight towards us and should be arriving sometime tomorrow evening.

No Longer Supporting Google+ Shares
It is no secret that I dislike Google+. There was a point where I was using it and then for some unknown reason, my account was suspended. No warning. No reason why. Nothing. I’ve tried appealing the issue many times with no luck in discovering why. This was about a year and a half ago … Continue reading
My 10 Year Old Plays Overwatch | Videos
My son plays Overwatch and he’s actually gotten pretty good at it. Unlike games like Call of Duty, Halo, or even Destiny to some extent, multiplayer matches in this game help promote the concept of teamwork in order to win. Overwatch is one of the few games where teamwork is absolutely necessary to win a … Continue reading
Google+ Customer Support is a Joke [Editorial]
There was a time when I had Google+. I barely ever used it for posting other than having this blog auto-post to it. In fact, the only real Google services I use on the daily is Gmail, Maps on occasion, Youtube, and anything associated with Google Play (Music, Games, Apps, etc). I actually used Google … Continue reading
What Video Games Do You Play With Your Kids?

Why I Decided to Upgrade My PS4 and What I Used
Not too long ago, I was just fine with a 500gb PS4. I bought a lot of my games as physical discs and if need be, I could delete those games off my PS4 to free up some space and reinstall them later to play. However, as time went on, I started downloading a lot … Continue reading
Watch_Dogs Midnight Release Observations from My Local Gamestop
Today, Watch_Dogs is officially out and if you were one of the few really dedicated fans, you probably picked it up last night at midnight. I know I did. Due to some weird error with Amazon, I ended up pre-ordering the game at my local Gamestop and since I could pick it up at midnight, … Continue reading
My PlayStation 4 Midnight Launch Experience (Spoiler: It Was a Success!)
I swore that I would never do another midnight launch event, only because, I honestly think I’m just too old to do them anymore. I usually just order all my stuff on Amazon these days and just have them delivered to me on release day. Even with such an anticipated console like the PlayStation 4, … Continue reading
Will Mobile Games Be Just As Popular and Fun on a Larger Screen?
This is the question that comes into mind when I think of all these new android based micro-consoles that are coming out, such as the Ouya, GameStick, and now the newly announced GamePop. You see, these developers all seem to think there is a place for playing mobile games on a much bigger medium other … Continue reading

What’s New in iOS6
Apple hit it out of the park this year with huge updates to iOS6. If you’ve been following along, this is probably the largest set of feature updates I’ve ever seen from Apple. iOS6 seems to fill almost every void that the previous OS’s had and then some. I won’t be listing every new feature … Continue reading
Happy 35th Anniversary Star Wars!
Star Wars will always hold a special place in my life. It was released on the year I was born and I remember watching all of the original trilogy as a child over and over again. The original movies are one of the few movies I never tire of watching and even now, I would … Continue reading

Hi everyone. As you know, I manage most of this blog on my own so I just wanted to let you all know that for the next week or so, there will be very little updates here unless I find some time inbetween my busy schedule. I’ll be heading out of town on business and will only be … Continue reading
