47

So I saw "Hitman" today at my local theater. What can I say? Excellent acting, great music, good fx, a great plot, no noticeable video game movie cliches......it had none of these things.

I know I am stupid to go see these films. Everything from Doom to Punisher has been a disappointment. But I really thought this might be cool. Agent 47 the ruthless killer with a barcode tatooted to his head. I enjoyed the game the couple of times I played it. But let me describe where they went wrong. First of all agent 47 is the most boring assassin ever and the actor who plays him (from go) is horrible. A large rock could of played 47 better. The music was booring and cliches and the fx were horible as well. I mean every time someone got shot at least 5 gallons of blood flew on the wall. Totally unrealistic. Don't these people watch "The First 48"?

I also enjoyed how heavily armored Russian "alpha" soldiers would die from a handgun. Guess they are using the same armor we give our troops in Iraq huh? Anyway it just got worse from there. They even showed some kids playing the "Hitman" video game in the "Hitman" movie......bloody brilliant huh? Sigh......it even did the whole video game camera shot in the movie. You know the 3rd person behind the head shot....seriously? Finally it does get 2 stars for her being the movie plus she can actually act. So I give it 2 out of 5 stars....Avoid people Avoid!

They are trying to read your mind......

Prepare the tin hats. Saw this in MAKE magazine.

Suffering from its exorbitant price point and a dearth of titles, Sony's PlayStation 3 isn't exactly the most popular gaming platform on the block. But while the console flounders in the commercial space, the PS3 may be finding a new calling in the realm of science and research.

Right now, a cluster of eight interlinked PS3s is busy solving a celestial mystery involving gravitational waves and what happens when a super-massive black hole, about a million times the mass of our own sun, swallows up a star or maybe the goverment is using one to tap your ISP right now.......
