Now TalkNB has been on hiatus as I had a new baby join the family and it’s a bit difficult to find the time to try and do everything and have fun at the same time =).
So we have shot another Video and are launching Season 2, I also took some time to do a gamer update on WOW. For Now I’m going to try to maintain both websites but I will be posting the video’s here on my blog as well along with the description but feel free to check out TalkNB.com as well.
TalkNB Season 2
Are we back well yes the writer strike you heard about is over but will we maintain Talknb.com well for now we will, but we might just merge it into my blog over at http://blog.elitegd.com
So like tv we are going to have some downtime and have to fill your screen with re-runs but we won’t repost them and hopefully we’ll be able to produce some likable vidoe’s and here is the first one for you enjoyment.
Gamer Update - WoW - Mid Summer Festival
TalkNB Season 2, Gamer Update, first game we’ll be looking at is WoW I know I’m a few years behind the band wagon. However it’s Mid Summer Festival in the World of Warcraft as I finish off the achievement list to get my title.
For everyone else working on this I hope you are enjoying your world tour.
The next gen gaming without the need for a controller as you are the controller. Using the latest and greatest in technology. However I don’t think that this is such a great idea, I mean how much space do most people have in their living room. The Wii already required you to move your coffee table so that you could get the full range of motion, now your going to require a room dedicated with nothing in it for gaming.
Doing round houses and jumping around is that really what’s the best thing for gaming?
My biggest fear is that game developers will focus more on making this part work than keeping the quality of the games up. I mean hardcore gamers will still use a controller to have control in GTA IV, opposed to trying to run on the spot to chase down a car when your on a time limit.
I think this is just the new fad and i hope it doesn’t take away from the quality of the games, i mean is NHL 10 going to be as cool when they have to spend an additional 6 months to make the character react to the user’s movement instead of a controller?? I guess only time will tell, I am very interested in this and will most likely be checking it out when it releases. I just hope i don’t have to build a new room on to my house in order to be able to use this system.
Sorry for the lack of posting I am working on a few projects right now that have eating up my time which is always good.
I did get my Xbox back yesterday and everything is working great, and I was given a complimentary month of Xbox live and a Xbox universal remote. I also got my money back from bell for the receiver charge i have been paying so this is a good week.
I decided I’m going to start also posting some pictures, just so that there is some nice visual elements on my blog =). If you like them great if not let me know and I’ll stop posting them, I just thought it would be something extra, as finding relevant information on my blog is pretty quick if your looking for specific topics.
Well I got my xbox after a full month yesterday, with a note saying they sent me a new machine. I turn it on and get no response from my controllers, I call up support and run through everything with them. With both a wireless and a Wired controller got no response so I am informed it has to be sent back.
I am getting the Universal Remote for free but my response was Give me a working XBOX 360 so it looks like it will be another 10 - 15 business days untill I get it and hopefully it will work this time.
Well I am a huge fan of my Xbox 360 i’m growing impatient. They have had my Xbox since i had the freezing and red lights issue for 17 business days, and they still have not fixed it or given me an update. The last email notification was on Jan 27th saying they received it and it will be 5 - 10 business days.
However I have my shipping tracking that says they received it on the 14th. I’ve grown very annoyed and I will be giving them a phone call tonight to get an update on my 360.
