Forza2 Motorsports : My Rides - part 1

redskull13 — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 10:13:00 -0700

This game has been out awhile, but it took me this long to discover it and get hooked. These are my rides I use in game that have won through races. They have been all been customly decored and painted by me. I took the liberty off adding a little written text background on the manufacturer as well as my car's specs. I hope you like viewing them as much as I did tweaking them.

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

redskull13 — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 07:05:00 -0700

Normally I don't do previews of games. Nor do I write an article about a game I don't own or haven't played. But once in awhile a title will come out in development that begs you take notice of it. This is one of those titles. It's slated for the PS3 for mid-April and it's a technology demo in which you'll need to pay $40 to get a taste of. It will be a must have for my collection and in this preview, I'll explain why...

PlayStation3 : Hands On Review

redskull13 — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 08:00:00 -0700

I finally took the plunge and bought an 80Gb PS3. What made this transition so easy was I also bought a 46" Samsung 1080p HD LCD television.( which will be in a different review ) In my arsonal is also a 20Gb Xbox360 as well as a 120Gb Xbox360 Elite. The PS3 was begging to be added to this family. In this article, I'll be giving an in-depth hands on review of the PS3 and all it's features. Will also be adding some comparisons with the Xbox series console.

Become a Sharp Shooter

redskull13 — Sat, 16 Feb 2008 07:46:00 -0800

Even with image stabilzation and higher mega-pixel counts, sharp images are still the job of the person behind the camera. If you are considering a new digital camera with more features, the jump up the mega-pixel scale is certainly a good place to start. Finer quality, extra sharpness and richer colour are definite side benefits of that purchase. But if you don't follow good camera technique, all will become lost. In this article we will touch base on those aspects.

Tattoo Gallery #4

redskull13 — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 18:37:00 -0800

In this gallery, I decided to theme upon animals and asian tattoos.

Lord of the Rings Online : Character Gallery

redskull13 — Sun, 27 Jan 2008 13:58:00 -0800

One of the beautiful things of having your very own personal site ( blog ) is I can put up any content in any form, shape, manner as I see fit. I decided to start a gallery of LotR of my characters as they progress through the game. It's more of a personal gallery rather than a public one, however, all are free to look at any pic(s) you like.

Eve Online : Trinity - in-game screenshots

redskull13 — Sat, 26 Jan 2008 13:20:00 -0800

Decided to edit a few screenshots of my game Eve Online. Thought I would share. When I stated Eve Online, I played Revelations ( as the Trinity engine graphics overhaul by CCP wasn't completed yet ) I was also using an outdated graphics card with Shader 2.0 technology. That's ok, ...

Logitech G15 Rev.2 Keyboard Review

redskull13 — Tue, 22 Jan 2008 18:24:00 -0800

I bought this little number, as I wanted a keyboard with back lighting capabilities under the keyboard for late night frag fest mayhem. It so happens to be designed with the gamer in mind and comes with it's own LCD monitor. In this review, I'll give you the skinny on what this puppy has to offer.

World of Warcraft : Character Gallery

redskull13 — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 21:43:00 -0800

I decided to start a gallery of World of Warcraft of my characters as they progress through the game, since I started one with my other MMO LotR. It's more of a personal gallery rather than a public one, however, all are free to look at any pic(s) you like.

Eve-Online : Revelations

redskull13 — Tue, 11 Dec 2007 22:29:00 -0800

EVE Online is an MMO ( massive multiplayer Online ) game that creates a vast universe for you to explore and seek your fame and fortune in. While it's certainly one of the best looking space games to date, the gameplay is a little "too much like space." There's alot of opportunity for the very patient and persistent gamer, but it's primarily vast in size and filled with alot of empty space.

Tattoos : Gallery Revisted

redskull13 — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 19:47:00 -0800

It's been a long, long time since I last posted anything tattoo related on this website. I have been collecting pictures in my travels during my absence, although they need to be properly edited and doctured to present it here in a dignified manner. I have started to do so, ...

Lord of the Rings Online : Shadows of Angmar

redskull13 — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 08:29:00 -0800

I first got hooked on LOTR : Shadows of Angmar when I downloaded the Beta for it before it was released. It was a 3 day beta weekend only for this game and I played it pretty much non-stop. I 'KNEW' I had to have this game so at the first opportunity, I pre-ordered it. In this article I gives my views of it and have a few comparisons between this title and World of Warcraft ( since I am a player of both )

Killzone : Liberation

redskull13 — Sat, 13 Oct 2007 03:11:00 -0700

Killzone: Liberation is the PSP handheld sequel to a first-person shooter that appeared on Sony's PlayStation 2 some years ago. It follows on from the action depicted in that game, casting you as Captain Templar ( the character you play as ). Liberation has just about zero to do with its PS2 predecessor from a gameplay perspective. It's still a shooter, but the viewpoint has been switched to a 3rd person, 3/4 top-down view. It's my first game purchase as a handheld tactical shooter. This title ensures non-stop fragging mayhem.

Xbox360 Elite : Hands On

redskull13 — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 18:39:00 -0700

Microsoft's Xbox 360 Elite is here, and this version of the sleek, matte-black game console offers more than just cosmetic improvements. The unit's bolstered specs, such as a 120GB hard disk drive and an HDMI 1.2 connector is perfect for today's high-def TVs, which mean more room to store digital content and a better way to view high-definition content. Today I will go over this unit ( since I own it ) and will do some compariosns as well to the Classic Xbox360 ( which I own also ).

Brave Story : New Traveller

redskull13 — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 19:04:00 -0700

Brave Story, but it also manages to be one of the best role-playing titles current available on the PSP. My favorite game genre is RPG, so I was after a title with gameplay credentials more than just eye candy and looks. Brave Story : New Traveller is based on Japanese animation for it's graphics, so it's out of the norm of what I am acustom to, but it does look rather good for a PSP title. But is the gameplay there and is it worth the purchase? Well, we'll see about that....

ESP Ltd Viper 400 : Hands On

redskull13 — Thu, 27 Sep 2007 06:31:00 -0700

Today I'll be giving some insight on the Ltd Viper 400. I was lucky enough to get one on loan in Midnite Black. What sets this review apart from previous reviews I've done, is this particular guitar supports EMG pickups ( 81/85 active ) How is it to play and how does it sound? Read on and find out.

DOOM 3 - PC Review

redskull13 — Mon, 10 Sep 2007 06:31:00 -0700

Although my review is late than never, I've decided to finally put it up on my take of DOOM3. I bought this game the first week upon release. It's a CPU resouce hog, but if you have the horsepower, this game looks gorgerous. It's an old school corridor shooter in a near dark setting, where your only means of travelling forward is by flashlight. But beware... someone...or something may be in waiting ...

1408

redskull13 — Fri, 07 Sep 2007 15:30:00 -0700

Adapted from the terrifying short story by suspense master, Stephen King. Renowned horror novelist Mike Enslin (Cusack) believes only in what he can see with his own two eyes. But after a string of bestsellers discrediting paranormal events in the most infamous haunted houses and graveyards around the world, he has no real proof of life…afterlife. But Enslin’s phantom-free run of long and lonely nights is about to change forever when he checks into suite 1408 of the notorious Dolphin Hotel for his latest project, “Ten Nights in Haunted Hotel Rooms.” Defying the warnings of the hotel manager (Jackson), the author is the first person in years to stay in the reputedly haunted room. Another bestseller may be imminent, but like all Stephen King heroes, first he must go from skeptic to true believer – and ultimately survive the night at the Dolphin Hotel.

BucketHead

redskull13 — Thu, 30 Aug 2007 20:18:00 -0700

I have a couple of DVD's of this muscian's work. I NEVER seem to tire of watching him. His an eccentric, want to be unknown guitarist, musically trained. He stands out. He's different. He's unique. He's Buckethead. But who exactly is buckethead? Read on...

Fender 60th Anniversary Ash American Deluxe Stratocaster : Hands On

redskull13 — Tue, 28 Aug 2007 22:34:00 -0700

In this review, I'll be looking at my latest guitar purchase. The Fender 60th Anniversary Edition American Deluxe Stratocaster. These were made in a limited supply for 2006 to celebrate 60 years Fender has been in business.

DOOM

redskull13 — Mon, 27 Aug 2007 13:18:00 -0700

DOOM. PC video game (1993) made into a movie (2005). What took so long? Well the wait was well worth it. Distant planet Mars becomes overun at the UAC bio-station ( Union Aerospace Corporation ) with super human mutants bent on destroying all who stands in their way. Dark. Brooding. Action packed.

PuzzleQuest Review

redskull13 — Mon, 20 Aug 2007 17:31:00 -0700

Puzzle Quest - Challenge of the Warlords : This game is very similar to the arcade version of Bejeweled 2 for the Xbox360. It's a Puzzle based / RPG. What sets it apart and above it's counterpart is how the game is designed. It's a unique version of chess almost ( my concept of it ). It's a strategic game with roleplaying elements intertwined into the gameplay. Sound interesting? It is...

PSP Hands-On

redskull13 — Sun, 19 Aug 2007 07:54:00 -0700

The PlayStation Portable ( know as will be known as the PSP ) has finally made it's mark at OrbitalRed.com. I finally took the plunge and bought one for myself. The recent April pricedrop was a factor in that decision as well as the yearning for a portable gaming system. It has finally come and today I will give you my take of the powerful little handheld.

Gamer Metal Music

redskull13 — Tue, 24 Jul 2007 07:14:00 -0700

Found this on my Gamer Site by chance. I am a current Subscriber and Gamer to World of Warcraft Online.

Saw this little video clip with a bunch of Warcraft charcters playing Metal Music. Although the lyrics are tacky, the guitaring is quite good. See what you think....

redskull13 — Thu, 12 Jul 2007 19:18:00 -0700

The SZ720FM. An affordable guitar designed from Ibanez which is well designed, built like a workhorse and able to dish out a rich, warm,creamy tone to the likes of a Gibson Les Paul. In this article we'll discuss exactly what this guitar does have to offer.

Dark Water

redskull13 — Mon, 16 Apr 2007 03:59:00 -0700

Actually, it's worth noting that the film is by the author of The Ring. Dark Water doesn't have that many similarities to its predecessor, but it does share a lot theme-wise with The Ring Two. Unfortunately as with The Ring Two, it wasn't a box office smash. Either is Dark Water.... Dark Water, ( directed by Walter Salles ) is at least modulated with some fine acting and claustrophobic visual imagery.
