Fashionably Techy: Five Video Games Girls Can Play

files.jpg[Like a magpie, you gravitate towards things that are shiny: cell phones, TVs, anything that allows you to play Rock Band. But just because you love ‘em doesn’t mean you know much about ‘em. That’s where we come in. Every week we will be highlighting the best, coolest and shiniest in technology. Consider us your personal Geek Squad.

And let us tell ya; with CC on your side, geek has never looked so chic.]

So your sig other is totally geeked about Punch Out coming to the Wii because it was like his favorite game ever when he was five. And while he’s standing there showing you screen shots you’re thinking “WTF?”

If the only game character you can readily recognize is Mario ( I will also take Sonic as an acceptable substitute), or if the one and only time you played a video game you quit because you “just didn’t get it,” then I have a list for you.

So what if you’re trapped in the eighties of video games , I’ve got five games for you to play that will catapult you into the 21st century. Read More »

He Said/She Said: Putting Out on the First “Date”

Want to know what guys think? We can show you. Last week we discussed the issue of paying on the first date. This week we tackle a more touchy (pun intended) topic: getting it on. What does it mean? What do guys think of a lady who is willin’ to romp on the first night?

He Said:

If you put out on the first date, it doesn’t necessarily mean guys think you’re a slut, easy or not worthy of respect. But it all depends on the how well we vibe beforehand.

The Heidi and Spencer Publicity Tour: Next Stop, Video Games

heidi_spencer_vegas_blog.jpgIt seems that nothing can stop Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt’s quest for fame. Of any sort. At all. Whatever they have to do. Just to be famous.

First they hired photographers to follow them to the beach to capture Heidi just laying out and having a normal day. Then they shot that low budget and horrific music video. And now it seems that the Platinum Pair are developing a video game.

Yes, you heard me right; a video game.

No one really knows what to expect, but Spencer told Us Weekly, “Let’s just say that everyone will be addicted.”

Obviously that means that we will be able to hurt/torture/pummel both Heidi and Spencer, because I can’t imagine any other sort of activity that would make me a Heidi/Spencer addict. I am imagining some sort of James Bond meets Grand Theft Auto situation. You know, with guns and violence.

Or maybe something like The Sims where you can run Heidi and Spencer’s lives. That could also be addicting; putting them in the bear cage at the zoo. With steaks strapped to their bodies. Or sending Heidi to an all-you-can-eat buffet and forcing her to consume carbs. And maybe, although this may be a little too much, getting Spencer a job!? Read More »
