Bioshock has become a video game hit. The Xbox360 game sold extremely well and was a certified hit for the system and just recently, Playstation 3 owners finally got the chance to play this awesome game a few months ago. There has been a sequel in the works for some time and the excitement and anticipation for the second game in the series is growing with every leaked screenshot and tidbit of information.

The initial offering had a great blend of shooter, horror and puzzle mixture. There was a lot of darkness and the sounds were very spine tingling. As you search the disaster of the underground city of Rapture, there is all this awful screaming all around, and there's the feeling that reality is suspended.

The utopia, the perfect civilization has been a dream of man for centuries, and philosophers have spoken of this perfect place. One man had the foresight, the know-how, the vision to make it happen and he built that city under the sea where it couldn't be touched by the imperfect governments and countries of so called civilized man. He gave the residents the freedom to do what they wanted; the scientists had nothing stopping them from their creations.

Since the Hobbit movies by Peter Jackson won't be out for a while, it's a good time to watch the Lord of the Rings trilogy again. The theater is where most people saw it for the first time, then we all had to get the DVD's, and then of course we had to then have the extended directors edition.

My vulnerability for this trilogy has cost me three times in the past and it may happen again. Why would this happen? Because the trilogy will be released on Blu Ray and no one can ignore that. But this one is not the extended directors cut, so if you liked the version they showed at the movies and you don't want extra scenes go ahead and purchase this release. But if that's what you prefer you may be content just to keep your original DVD's from a few years ago.

Those of us who've bought three times may wait on this one and get the extended version on Blu Ray. They will release it and it'll probably get released during the opening date of the first Hobbit film. I'll invest in the trilogy then as the Blu Ray will be exceptional in looks and sound, plus seeing all the furry Hobbit feet will be very satisfying for us nerds who never get enough Lord of the Rings.

There was some extra content in the original releases but nothing like the extended versions. They had so much more content that fans of the books wanted to have on the movie. The fans had a picture in their heads from reading the books and they wanted to see if it translated the same as the directors version.

No one doubts that Peter Jackson in the most intense fan of the series, his care and talent showed in the wonderful adaptations he brought to the screen. I have no doubt that he will extend the same expertise to the Hobbit movies, but while we wait continue to watch the extended directors version you already have and wait on the Blu Ray version. If you must see it in HD, there's always the option of renting it from the store or borrowing it from a friend who didn't wait.

There are plenty of naysayers out there decrying the new Guns N Roses album. The complaint is that it doesn't sound the same. And that's not so bad. I think intentions were to migrate to a newer sound.

The older music, especially Appetite for Destruction, the first G n R album was about as perfect a debut album that could have been made. It was an almost perfect mix of glam rock mixed with some punk influence and a healthy helping of I dont give a crap attitude. It was loud, brash and arrogant in it presentation and in its excess. In a word-perfect. It didnt get any better than Appetite.

After the raging success of Attitude, the two Illusion albums allowed the new millionaire boys to branch out a little bit artistically and try new sounds. Some fans felt the dirty, rough back alley sound had been lost to fancy production techniques but time has treated the Illusion releases well and they stand strong in the lineup. And with the new Chinese Democracy release 15 years later, we hear yet another new sound. Same old Axl, but updated to keep up with the times. Some heads are reeling.

Axl is the only returning original member and that's just fine because he'd likely make them all nuts anyway. This release is clearly an Axl Rose album, even if the cover says Guns N Roses. He may have miscalculated this one, because if it only had his name on the cover, it may have been received a little better. Die hard fans need to listen to this one a few times through before they make their final determination. The sounds are there. The riffs are there. This is Axl Rose back in fine form.

The album opens up with the first two songs reminding listeners why they bought it. The title track Chinese Democracy, rocks and seems familiar to most, since it has evolved over several years without ever being released until now. The album is able to create a bridge between the last album and itself - not an easy task. No matter if you like this latest effort from Axl and crew or not, you must admit that it still awakens your senses that the mass of "rock" drivel out there today can not do.
