The State of Democracy

December 5, 2008

I tried not to rant about this, I really tried, however I have to get this off my mind. Now I know most of you who follow The Wiire live in the United States, so our political systems differ greatly. But we do share a common thread – Democracy. (keep in mind, this is a total rant designed to get crap off my chest. It aint no literary piece.) (more…)

XBOX Dashboard Update Post (NXE)

November 19, 2008

Yea, ok – I know I work for a Wii site that just experienced its own redesign overhaul, but I figured I needed to do at least a little something for what could be a massive shift in XBOX culture. The New XBOX Experience (NXE). Everyone that follows Video Games should know what’s coming down the pipe for XBOX users, since they’ve been talking about it for the past billion years. But if you havn’t heard about it, click here

So, after that wonderful hype post above what have I decided to do for this momentus occasion? Post my gamertag. OMGZ! Ya, I know – I couldn’t think of anything more amazing than that (OK, i could think of about 100 more amazing things than that, but I just got off from pulling 2, 4 hour nights to get v4 launched, so cut me some slack). If I can have some virtual drum roll please.

WOW, that was anticlimactic. Almost as bad as, as that one movie that had that really anticlimactic ending. Man, what a terrible movie. 

SO! feel free to add me, and If we are online playin’ the same game – feel free to completely waste me at halo 3 or send me a message on how you hate the wiire v4.

Welcome to v4.

November 14, 2008

World, meet v4. v4, meet world. 

Yes, we finally finished it. After hyping it up for what seems like forever, it has finally launched and is ready to serve you quality Wii related content.  Lauching at 3:15 am this morning. (yes, morning.)

We’ve been hammering it out hardcore these last few weeks, but it has been a project that has been underway for close to a year. So if you were wondering where my posts have been, or why I haven’t updated Barkman hockey pool lately – well now you know.

Click here for a video run down of all that is new with The Wiire v4!

Now go and enjoy it!

MOVIN’ DAY

November 2, 2008

cout << “Hello World!”;
echo “Hello World”;
printf “Hello World”;
Just thought I should quickly shout out that I’m in the process of moving to my new condo. So no Barkman Pool awards till I get my life out of all these boxes. I do have a couple of cool posts mulling around my brain – however I may not be able to pour them out till the stress dies down.

I’ll have pics when I can hit the blog up again.

Love, peace n’ chicken grease.

Scott’s YouTube Extravaganza!

October 24, 2008

I gotta be honest – this is more about me bookmarking really insane YouTube videos for my pleasure than anything else, but If you can watch these next videos without being afraid you, my friend, are clinically insane.
