Iron Maiden Album Art

Iron Maiden is a heavy metal band from the 70's that is still around today. Even though this band was way before my time I still really like them and consider them my favorite band. Iron Maiden has 14 studio albums that each have a very interesting album art involving their band mascot "Eddie" a zombie dressed and placed in a background that has to do with what the album represents. My personal favorite album arts from iron maiden would be:


Powerslave

The Trooper

The Number of the Beast (Absolute Favorite)

Can I Play with Madness

Diablo III


Back in 2000 when Diablo 2 had just been released I was one of the kids who went to the store that day to buy it. Diablo 2 is probably one of Blizzard Entertainments most popular games. It is classified as an Action/Adventure game and lets players choose from a selection of 7 different classes. The single player adventure was good all by itself, but Blizzard went farther than that. They allowed up to 8 players to join over a game on Battle.net and play the single player story with friends or random people. After you've beaten the game you have only unlocked the next difficulty in the game, Nightmare, which gives all the enemies in the game an increase in health and attributes. After you've beaten "Nightmare" and thought you were the best ever you have only unlocked the hardest difficulty on Diablo 2 known as "Hell". In Hell mode every enemy is greatly increased and ALL of them are at least immune to 1 element. 99% of the time if you want to play on Hell difficulty you're going to need to have friends or other people join you to conquer the game. After Hell mode you are finally finished and then get to work on building your character level, or helping other people in their quests. On top of the story you could PvP (Player vs. Player) to make people test their characters strengths against others. This game is practically impossible to get bored with. Each different character type you choose has 3 different types of ways you can build that character up. Making the choices almost limitless in building a character to do almost any specific job. I played that game for 5 years and still occasionally stop on it to do a few games on battle.net. Now, in 2009 I'm anxiously awaiting the release of Diablo 3. The game doesn't have an official release date, but many expect it to be around the Holiday season of this year. Thinking about the release date myself I'm very doubtful that this amazing game will be here this year. I've seen previews for it and while they do look really good and just make me want it that much more, the game looks like it's still going to take a lot more work. Surely enough though on the official release day of Diablo 3 anyone who knows me can probably see me waiting for it to hit the shelves in our local Wal-Mart.

MP3 Player Crisis (not really)


On a truthful basis, Upward Bound doesn't exactly make me happy about my summer. A lot of the people just around talking can make me a little mad after awhile so normally you'll see me with my headphones in my ears listening to my Cowon S9 MP3 player. Unfortunately my Cowon S9 suffered an accident a week ago. While playing hackysack with Donald and a group of other people that I can't remember I managed to shatter the transparent electrode layer. Until I get this repaired, which I have set up, my good friend Blake Ross from school let me borrow his MP3 player. It is the Samsung P2, which I used to own as well before I upgraded to my S9. Going from an S9 to a P2 is a downgrade to me in storage space, but I don't really care as long as I have something to listen to while my S9 is being repaired.

Windows 7 is getting closer :)


Windows 7 is coming very soon and just got pricing. The highly anticipated operating system will come as "Home Basic", "Business", and "Ultimate". The pricing goes as: $119.99, $199.99, and $229.99. This article covers more details. The successor to Windows Vista is looking a lot easier to use and won't screw you over like Vista. You ever had a game that you love but once you switched over to Vista the game was completely incompatible and you couldn't play it? That is going to be a thing of the past with Windows 7.

Dogs are so cute aren't they? But would you ever expect one to SHOOT YOU? In this article there are stories of everyday common animals that decide they've had enough abuse or just completely accidentally killed humans.
