First of all I want to say thank you all again for every one of you who has followed along with me and all of the new subscribers who keep my subs list growing bigger every day!

Next, I want to say that, as usual, the video schedule for this summer is going to be a little different than the rest of the year. I want everybody to get out this summer and do things that you will remember instead of sitting inside playing video games and watching my reviews. I’m not saying I don’t appreciate all of you watching and supporting my videos, because I most definitely do, but I want to get out this summer and these videos take a lot of time and effort to put together, so lets all just get out and enjoy the weather instead!

I also want to say that if you still want to see what I’m doing with my summer, check out my daily vlog channel and join the community over there for a bit of a change! The link is: GIMRvLOGS

Also, if any of you have any ideas for new reviews or even video types I should get into starting in September, please let me know, I really want to expand the videos to better interest all of you guys!

I think that’s about all for now, I will be releasing a couple reviews during the summer, but I can’t sate a date for when that will happen. Otherwise, I really hope you guys have an awesome summer and I hope you will come tell me about it on my vlogs channel!

I’ll see you guys again in September!!

Fallout 3 Video Game Review

Fallout 3 was released on October 28th, 2008 and attracted thousands of new fans pre-launch. There were some true fans that had played previous versions of the game, but many new gamers discovered it when Fallout 3 launched and not only did they become fans as well, but they became addicts to the world of Fallout!

To start, let’s keep the trend going and start with the graphics provided in Fallout 3. Overall, the graphics are very well done, especially for a sandbox game. This game has a HUGE map and you can tell that, for the most part, there was a lot of time, effort, and thought put into the creation and texturization of the environment for Fallout 3. Granted, there are some textures that just look like someone slapped them on there a few seconds before they finalized the game, but it’s nothing to get uptight about.

Fallout 3

Next up, we have the gameplay, controls, and storyline. The gameplay is smooth and the menus are well thought out. I really have nothing to complain about as far as gameplay or controls go. The controls are easy to pick up and the only thing I found somewhat annoying was the FPS aspect was poor. Throughout, I would say, at least 90% of the game I didn’t aim for myself at all, I just used the auto lock feature, which after a while and after you’ve leveled up to a decent level, it becomes almost boring to be honest. The storyline was all well and good except for the ending. I really really did not like the ending at all and wish I would have known not to go into that last room so I didn’t lose all that crazy armor I looted in that last mission. Other than that though, I think the rest was well done and they have more than enough missions to keep you busy for days after you’ve beat the main missions.

Trophywise, Fallout 3 has probably the most trophies I’ve seen in any game. I completed Fallout 3 with only 16% of the trophies and I was actually looking to complete as many side missions as I could find. Now, if that doesn’t give you an idea of how much Fallout 3 has to offer, then you just need to pick it up and see for yourself. At this point, I don’t see any reason why not to spend $20.00 on this game even just for the trophies or even to take up some space on your shelf until you have some free time.

Overall, besides the ending which I really did not like, everything else about this game is a positive aspect and I really had a lot of fun playing through this game and it was the best $20.00 I’ve spent in a long time. The only other thing I found somewhat disappointing is that it doesn’t have any multiplayer, but you really can’t complain about this due to the fact that Fallout 3 has so many other things to offer instead, that it will keep you occupied for days on end if you’re trying to complete all the main and side missions.

Samsung 40″ TV Review

Okay, so you guys have been waiting for this review since back in December and it’s finally here! I got this for Christmas of 2009 and have been evaluating it up to this point trying to get a good feel for how I like it and how well everything works.

BUY SAMSUNG 40″ LCD TV

I’m going to start off and address the whole “Samsung clicking” issue. As far as I’m concerned, it doesn’t exist. I’ve never seen it, and it’s never happened to my TV the whole time I’ve had it. The one thing I do have to say about it is that if you do have this so called “Samsung clicking” you should make sure you have your cable box hooked up and set up correctly, because if you have not done this it could cause the box to click letting you know that something’s wrong, but it isn’t the actual TV doing the clicking.

Next up we have the picture quality. Now I couldn’t compare side by side with another LCD TV, but at the time, this TV was the top of the line model and it still shows. The picture and sound quality is crystal clear, the colors are vibrant and really pop well. The audio is sufficient, but if you really want to experience the full potential of this LCD TV, I would advise you to hook it up to some sort of sound system and then listen to how much it improves the overall experience of this television.

Samsung LE40B650

One thing I do want to mention about this particular Samsung LCD TV is that the menus are extremely well done. Not only are the icons crisp and clear, but they are also colorful instead of being boring and bland like other televisions on the market. The reason why I bring up the color issue is because I am an artistic person and love graphical design and like to inspect others work in such fields. Sometimes when color is added to icons, the color is too much, or is done in such a way that it just doesn’t fit, but this is not the case with the Samsung LE40B650 TV. I have no complaints whatsoever as far as the icons, menu layout, and icon designs.

Lastly we have the plugs and ports on the back of this beast. The Samsung LE40B650 has the power plug on the back left all by itself. In the middle there is a nice wire tie for keeping the wires from turning into a jumbled mess. Then in the back right there are all the ports, this LCD TV has 4 HDMI ports, 2 USB ports, 1 VGA port, Component input and outputs, an Ethernet port, and lots of RGB and additional audio video ports. This being said, there is no need to worry about a shortage of ports in the back of this television. If you run out of ports on this thing, that probably means you just spend way too much time in front of it to begin with, so for the average and even the advanced user, there are plenty of ports for anything you could think of to plug into this Samsung TV.

Overall the layout, look, and feel of this TV is great. I love the overall theme of red and black and really appreciate the glass accent with the stand. With all of this taken into consideration, I have absolutely no complaints whatsoever, I can’t even think of anything I would change on it if I could. I see absolutely no reason why not to get this TV, so if you are in the market for a new 40″ flatscreen TV, this is by far the way to go!

I also want to thank all of you 1,000+ subscribers that I now have and I was working on putting a video together just listing out all of your names, but that would mean I would have to type out over 100 pages of YouTube user names, so unfortunately, that is a little too much, but you know who you are and I want to personally thank each of you!

The 24 Hour live session montage is still being worked on, I have to sort through 24 hours of footage and compile it into under 10 minutes, so it is going to be quite a task, but it will be out in a couple of weeks hopefully.

Also, the giveaway does not have a set date yet, but I’m giving you guys a couple more weeks to enter and you will be further notified as I figure out when it is going to go down!
