Microsoft Bundles 2 Games with 360

Xbox 360 bundle

Just in time for the Holidays, Microsoft has bundled Forza Motorsport 2 and Marvel Ultimate Alliance in both the Xbox 360 ($349.99) and Xbox 360 Elite ($449.99) packages.

Microsoft is really giving consumers a ton of reasons to buy the Xbox 360 this Holiday season. Price drop, free games, and tons of great new AAA titles has made their offerings indubitably the best on the market today.

It’ll be interesting to see whether or not games like Super Smash Bros Brawl and Super Mario Galaxy will be reason enough for most consumers to buy Wii’s this Holiday seasons than Xbox 360s.

Don’t edit Wikipedia at Work

Wikipedia

Don’t edit Wikipedia at work, unless you want to get fired. When you’re a fanboy that works at a boring job, you’ve got to find ways to entertain yourself, but spending hours editing Wiki articles is not the way to go about finding that glimer of fun in your job.

Japan’s Agricultural Ministry reprimanded six officials who did just that. They let their geekdom for Gundam and other cartoon robot stories get in their way. In total they made 408 entries since 2003 on the ministries computers.

Companies have the right to monitor everything you do using their equipment! Usually it says this in your job’s contract.

Wikipedia is a great resource, but remember children work is work so just do it and get out of the office as quickly as possible.

New PS3 model

Reported as a rumor earlier this week, Sony has now made it official that a new PS3 unit is on its way, at least in European territories. It sports a 40GB harddrive and lacks 2 USB ports, PS2 backwards compatibility, and does not have a multi-memory unit card port. This new unit will be released on October 10, 2007 at the price of €399 ($565).

It appears that Sony is phasing out the 60GB PS3 Starter Pack units as it will only remain in stock as long as it lasts. They lowered those prices to €499.

All of this has been made to please investors that have been hammered by Sony’s lack of PS3 sales. Their belief is that price is what has halted the PS3 from selling out – But as we all know it’s the games that count and the PS3 doesn’t have them (yet).

Sleek New Look

After 7 hours and 30 minutes, I’m proud to release the latest design of StuffWeLike.com! If I attached a number to this layout I’d say it was version 8.5 (I guess). The largest improvement was the header/navigation areas. All the blog pages have been added onto the header and their previous location on the sidebar of the blog has been removed. It’s pretty amazing to receive feedback I never knew you could submit videos!

Indeed, welcome to a feature we added 1 month ago. . . No, I’m not blaming you – it’s our fault for not making your experience as easy as possible. With this new layout, I hope that you get more out of this website than you ever have.

Sorry if you were trying to access the website while it was under construction earlier today. I’m sure you might have been totally confused and baffled to see the blog in such disarray. We had a couple of bugs that carried over from the previous version in which I believe I eliminated them.

If you experience anything that you don’t think should happen – let us know!

Thanks for being a part of the StuffWeLike.com experience.

Artifacts stolen from Dr. Jones

Indiana Jones IV

Dr. Jones look out! Someone’s after your Crystal Skull. Thankfully Steven Speilberg is getting in on the action and throwing out his wip as well.

Police are being called into the scene to figure out who has stolen Dreamworks’ computers and photographs relating to the production of the latest Indiana Jones film, The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

If you see any of these items turn up on the Black Market, the Silk Road, or eBay – please called your local authorities.
