I bought this DVD player a little over a year ago and considering the price - it's been worth it - yet a little disappointing at the same time. I have three major concerns with this DVD player. Firstly the remote isn't up to scratch at all - you have to be within 5 feet or so for it work (which means almost falling off my bed to get to a reachable distance)and the buttons often. Secondl...

Ok. I know what you are thinking - $9.95 for a pair of socks!?!? That's more than minimum wage - you're right. But these aren't just socks - these are feet warmers. These socks mean serious business. I used to be part of the scouting movement and as such - I went camping and hiking. A lot. Cold feet are pretty much the worst thing ever when you are camping - there is no cure and if you don't...

The frozen throne is an expansion of the popular game - Warcraft 3 (see my previous reviews for more information). The expansions includes a new hero for each race (that's four in total) and a couple of new units of each race as well. More importantly the map builder has been updated. Meaning the quality of custom maps coming from TFT community far super seeds the Warcraft 3 team. Sadly more...

I got given my iPod nano about two years ago for my 18th birthday. I am a music junkie - so it was a long time coming. Not having to lug around a CD player or a radio is fantastic - better yet you can store more songs than a CD on this bad boy and it being smaller than palm size (really this thing fits in your pocket) is really what seals the deal. I do have a few minor complaints about the...

I first started playing warcraft 3 years ago when I used to still LAN at my local center. The game itself didn't really grab my attention - but the custom hero games and tower defense games did. The beauty of custom games are they are constantly evolving - by the time you get bored of the latest custom game - the new thing is already in the pipe works and ready to be launched. The rate of re...

I've had my Wii for a few months now and I love it. It's a great gaming console but it's other features are even better. The reason the Wii is so popular is it's pick up - put down playability. I can come home from work - play Wii tennis for 5-15 minutes and then cook dinner. This allows me to unwind from work/uni before I get to my household chores. Typically gaming consoles have a roug...

I've played one version or another since the early days of counter strike. My childhood was filled with maps like amazon and dust. When I was 13, 14 and 15 I used to hit up the local LAN center fairly frequently and counter strike was the game of choice. In Five+ years, not much has changed. As soon as I got Adsl2+, one of the first things I did was try and download counter strike - un...

I was given this watch for my 18th birthday by my parents - I realise watches are pretty much reduant with mobile phones - mp3 players and pretty much every other personal device now having the time on them. But there is something oddly satisfying about owning your own watch.That said this watch is a bit of a hassle. The links in the watch are somewhat large - which means it's hard to get a...

I bought this power station because I was sick of buying expensive batteries. I know most of you are thinking that rechargable batteries were probably a better option than this power station (because they can be used for all types of devices and they are cheaper) but I'd have to disagree. The power station directly connects to the wii (through the power slot) so an extra plug isn't nece...

Wii sports is given to you free with the wii console, I think this was a genius move on behalf of whatever nintendo exec decided this. Not only is this game extremely fun, it's also extremely good at showing others the fun that the wii can be.Whenever I have friends stay over and they ask to play the wii, I always put in wii sports first. It allows them to get a real grip of the motion sens...

Wii play is what i've come to expect from the wii, utter craziness. Some of these games make no sense whatsoever and I am not sure how they come up with these ideas, for example there is a game which is kind of like dance revolution but instead you have to change yourself into different poses and angle the wiimote in the correct fashion.By the time you actually get the hang of one of the ga...

I'd heard a lot about threadless, I've seen the creators of it give a number of talks on web based enterperners and I liked a lot of the designs that I had seem them and others sporting around the place. But for some reason I had it in my head that A. The tee shirts were made out of bad fabric and B. The tee's were expensive.During the festive season, I noticed they had a sale on wh...

I got this fragrance or man smell as I like to call it as a birthday present from an ex of mine, the girl is gone but the fragrance lives on. In all honesty this has to be the best smelling perfume for men around. Being a guy I don't particularly care about how I smell (to a certain extent I actually like my own BO) but this stuff is dynamite. I love it. I would tell you what it smelle...
