Friday Cars #12: Mercedes

From Wikipedia:


Mercedes-Benz is a division of the German manufacturer Daimler AG, and the brand is used for automobiles, buses, coaches, and trucks. Mercedes-Benz is headquartered in Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. The name first appeared in 1926 under Daimler-Benz but traces its origins to Daimler's 1901 Mercedes and to Karl Benz's 1886 Benz Patent Motorwagen, widely regarded as the first automobile.

Thursday Games #12: Star Wars The Old Republic (SWTOR)

Star Wars has always been a highly anticipated film series for game developers, both because of a massive cult dedication to George Lucas' universe and because of its fantastical elements that transition perfectly into gameplay. The story is all there, and the people will eat it up; the real challenge lies in presenting that story.

BioWare is a developer with the talent to turn epic stories into epic interactive game experiences, and so naturally it was the choice for developing the most ambitious Star Wars project yet: The Old Republic, an MMORPG to compete with the likes of World of Warcraft.

If you have not played it yet, then you are not doing your title of Gamer any justice. Though opinions vary widely, it is a milestone game for one of geekdom's flagship universes.

Wednesday Music #10: Foo Fighters

I cannot attest for the rest of the world (or even for the rest of the U.S.), but here in the Los Angeles area of southern California, it seems like the rock radio stations will never let a Foo Fighters hit rest in peace. Throwing one on after the other, and sometimes doing this multiple times per day, seems to be characteristic of the stations around here. In between the most recent hip-hop/electronica hits, I can always catch a Foo Fighters song.

The band was formed by Dave Grohl after Cobain's death dissolved Nirvana. Intended as a one-man act, this band has gone through more members than most other bands. There are quite a few songs that have done well for the band, and a cursory glance through the list will bring up some musical memories. Even more of them may be re-discovered through listening to each song, which is not a bad idea if your radio station does not bombard you with them constantly.

Below are some wallpapers for the Foo Fighters, though I cannot promise they are all of the most upstanding quality (apologies!).

Tuesday Girls #10: Fantasy Girls

It has been too long since the last Tuesday Girls, and so we return strong with number 10 in the series: fantasy girls. While they may not all be from the Lord of the Rings, typical college nerd kind of fantasy, they are definitely in another type of fantasy, if you catch my drift. So, for whatever odd, fantasizing purposes you may want these, I present several high definition wallpapers of fantasy girls.

Just don't have too much fun with 'em.~

Monday Fun-day #10: Hockey

A bit of due dedication to the awesome sport of hockey, whose players seem to be quite well-mannered with each other despite their brutal behaviors on the ice (which, of course, only increases the watchability of the games). If you are a hockey fan, you may find something here you like...

...and if you are a Ducks fan, you may find the one I slipped in for Anaheim.~

Sunday Lanscapes #4: Fields and Plains

The "landscapes" theme for Sunday continues on, with number four in the series: fields and plains. Now, at first glance that topic may not seem like the most interesting, but when it comes to the high definition backgrounds on the internet, you can sure find a lot that catch the eye and the imagination. Below are a few of these wonderful wallpapers.~

Thursday Games #11: Borderlands 2

Borderlands 2 is due to come out in September of 2012, and if you are a fan, then you know you can get your pre-release wallpapers here to rev up for the game. Unfortunately, the second game does not seem to have any high definition wallpapers circulating yet, so the normal Borderlands walls will have to do (sorry!).

Gearbox Software put together a multi-platform game by the name of Borderlands back in 2009, and I doubt they knew how successful this game would be when it landed. It inspired the sequel, aptly named Borderlands 2, which is due out in the end of Q3 2012 (September).

Get into the Borderlands spirit with some of these backgrounds, and remember to reserve your copy of Borderlands 2 at your local game store today.
