Summer Of The PlayStation Vita
So you’ve platinum’d Uncharted: Golden Abyss, beat everyone’s score in Lumines: Electronic Sympathy, and near completion of your Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational career. You ask yourself, “Who’s Next?” like Goldberg in the late 90s and early 2000s. Well here at Wanderson75.net we are looking into the future for what’s to come to the PlayStation Vita. Get your wallets ready and be sure to ask the wife (or husband) if it’s okay, because it’s going to be an awesome summer for Vita owners. Read On »
Hands On With Turtle Beach’s 2012 Lineup
If you read my review of Turtle Beach’s X41 wireless 5.1 headset in 2011, you might remember that there were a few bones that I had to pick with TB ; no rechargeable batteries and a fit and finish that made the unit look cheap were among my biggest issues with the X41. Well, I’m happy to say that Turtle Beach has made quite a few strides in making a higher quality headset, and then some!

But in the meantime, take a look at the photos from yesterday below. And if you’re anywhere close to Toronto, you need to get down here!
Kinect’ing For The Holidays
Well, it’s officially winter in Southeastern Michigan. The flurries are coming down. My car is grumbling on the slick roads since I’ve effectively doubled it’s horsepower. No fast driving for me for the next three months. What to do…
In previous years, this has usually been the season where I stay indoors as much as possible, crawl under a blanket, and gain an extra 15-20 pounds from all of the holiday turkey and ham and fixins’. Of course there’s also the holiday shopping, which I try to get done as early as possible to stay away from the hordes of last minute shoppers.
But this year is a little different. Since I received my Kinect sensor, there’s been quite a bit less time on the couch, and much more moving around. Unfortunately, I’m on a spending freeze for personal goodies since it is the holiday after all, and being married means that I have to leave something for my spouse to purchase for that wonderful day, December 25th.
So right now all I can do is dream. And what am I looking forward to?
Video Games
Dance Central – Yes. I’m looking forward to playing this one. Behind closed doors and with the windows shut, of course. But this looks to be a very fun game.
Kinect Sports – This is an exceptionally fun game. I could see myself spending many hours playing Table Tennis, Soccer, Boxing, And Volleyball.
Assassin’s Creed II – Yeah, I know. It’s been out for a while. But with a pile of other games topping my list this last year, I just haven’t had time to sit down with it. But now it’s on the top of the stack. And as soon as I get done playing Mass Effect 2 for the billionth time (this time with all the DLC), I’ll be popping that in the tray.
Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood – As soon as I get done with ACII, this’ll be next on my pile.
Halo: Reach – Of course! With the new Noble Map Pack out, I’ll be sprinkling some death from my DMR here and there throughout the winter.
Movies
Tron: Legacy – This is definitely my holiday topper. I feel like I’ve been waiting 25 years for this movie to come out!
MegaMind – Going to see this on Saturday actually. Can’t wait!
The Tourist – I’m intrigued by this one. I’m a huge fan of Johnny Depp and I’m hoping this one is better for Angelina Jolie than Salt was. Such a disappointment…
DVD/Blu-Ray
Despicable Me – releases on December 14th. I saw this twice in the theatres and I still want more. I’ll probably watch this a few hundred times over the next couple of months.
Red Vs. Blue: The Recollection – If you don’t know of Red Vs. Blue, then you don’t know what you’ve been missing. Reliving the last three seasons is certainly going to be a treat. Unfortunatley, there’s no Blu-Ray option yet, but I’ll still be enjoying this in all it’s DVD glory.
Back To The Future Box Set – Yeah. It’s kind of nostalgic. But hey, that’s me.
And of course, planning the next car project to make it better, stronger, and faster.
