Thursday Games ~ Halo 4 (Coming Nov. 6!)

So, as some of my blog readers probably already know (considering they're probably gamers, haha), Halo 4 is due out soon. Specifically, the release date is November 6, 2012; however, you can get the game a little earlier than most by waiting in line at GameStop around midnight with your pre-order receipt.

I know I am!

Coincidentally (or not? :P) there is another game being released exactly a week later, on November 13: the Call of Duty continuation, Black Ops 2. While probably not quite as interesting as Halo, it's still worth a look!

Check out these high definition Halo wallpapers below!

Doctor Who

For all of those readers out there who browse my blog, from college students to grumpy seniors, who don't know about the wonder that is Doctor Who, please just stop everything you are doing at this very moment and find the nearest Netflix account to watch it on!

Hell, you can borrow mine. It's the same account I use for movies and shows, to avoid cleaning my place or studying for classes. :P

Anyhow, this show is actually the longest-running and most successful science fiction series of all time, according to the Guinness Book of World Records. It's not surprising to see why, either -- it's really something to behold. The show was really ahead of its time, but now that we are approaching 50 years of the Doctor, capabilities have met up with potential!

If you're new to the show, or a seasoned TARDIS rider, take a look at these excellent, high definition wallpapers with a Doctor Who theme, and maybe you might even find one you like as much as the show itself -- though, I doubt it. ;]

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT)

I have decided that from now on, the new Friday category for wallpapers will be Student's Pick, which will feature the random wallpaper-subject choices that I think would be interesting to my fellow college and university student peers. Friday seems the best day since that's when classes are off for the weekend, and we can relax from our tight schedule of studying, learning, and going to the campus!

My choice today is TMNT, or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. TMNT is a popular franchise that includes toys, comics, television shows, you name it -- a typical 90s-kid fan favorite. Being a 90s kid myself, I'm sure my colleagues are probably similarly acquainted with the franchise (and hopefully similarly enjoy it, as well!).

Check out these HD walls for TMNT in today's Student's Pick (and keep in mind that there are waaaay more TMNT wallpapers available at the album I created for them, which can be found by clicking here to go to imgur):
