Tuesday Girls #14: Game Gurrrlz

I thought it would be a great idea to combine two very awesome things: gorgeous women, and videogames. Game characters are quite awesome already, as they can allow us to fill the shoes of whatever role we want -- and it's even better when that character is hot! Check out the high definition wallpapers below for some gorgeous game girls.

...and, of course, the hottest: Lara Croft, Tomb Raider.

Monday Fun-Day #14: Movies

Movies seem to play a huge role in modern society, shaping the way many minds see the world and the people in it -- but how, or even to what extent exactly, is debated. Movies can be art forms, whether they are purely for entertainment or thought-provoking.

The intellectual elite down to the working class revere movies, making them a frequent occasion. So if we are so into movies, why not have a movie wallpaper to go with it? Check out the high definition movie wallpapers below to get something you like. Enjoy!

Thursday Games #14: Halo 4

Halo 4 is looking to be huge, but not quite so big as its predecessors. It is surrounded in ominous promises and the vaguest of description by 343 Industries, the development team that Microsoft chose to replace the original creators of Halo, Bungie, after their choice to end their involvement in Halo (and Master Chief) at Reach.

The Xbox 360 game Halo 4, which is planned to be the eighth game released in the entire Halo franchise, will start a new trilogy by the name of "The Reclaimer Trilogy," and despite Bungie's wishes, will bring back the forgotten Master Chief and his trusted AI, Cortana.

The game is slated to be released in time for the holidays this year, but that should (of course) always be taken with a grain of salt. Though they have released a strong set of art and ideas, the information to actual gameplay and plot has been kept minimal. Whether this is because they haven't panned it all out yet, or because they want to keep it a secret, is still up for guessing.

In the meanwhile, though, you can get your Halo on with these high definition wallpapers featuring the main protagonist of the sci-fi series, Master Chief; the smart-mouthed AI partner, Cortana; and more!

Friday Cars #14: Formula One

If you love cars, whether it is driving them or studying them, especially serious cars with lots of power, then you will definitely adore those beautiful machines that participate in the Formula One (F1, Formula 1) racing. These beasts are made to go up to 220 miles per hour, and are so powerful that drivers can experience up to 5 G's of pull in corners.

Formula One cars are considered to be the fastest circuit-racing cars in the entire world, and are very aerodynamic. They have just one seat, for the sole driver, and they can really create wild accidents. It is a sight to behold when they crash. I can only imagine how much one must learn and study to even comprehend these things.

Thursday Games #14: Modern Warfare 3

Call of Duty is perhaps one of gaming's most successful recent franchises, seeing millions of copies fly out the door on the very first release day of each and every one of their games since Call of Duty 4. Now that they're already working on Call of Duty number eight, you can see how they have made quite a bit of dough on college kids desperate for a good FPS.

Each game switches between developers, from Infinity Ward (known for the Modern Warfare series) and treyarch (known for Black Ops, World at War, etc.). The games are simple, if you don't know them: war simulation. Everyone gets guns, equipment, etc., and you shoot 'em up on the battlefield. Anyone can get into it, so long as they don't mind the violence.

Personally, and on behalf of my good friends I am sure, there is a fundamental problem with Modern Warfare 3. After watching just a few minutes of gameplay early in the release of the game, we noticed it was pretty much exactly like Modern Warfare 2. They really had not changed much up... at all!

My school buddies would like to attribute it to the general lack of creativity Call of Duty developers have -- it would seem that there is quite a bit of similarity between the games released, even back to the beginning of the series. However, Modern Warfare 3's particular similarities issues spawn from Infinity Ward's recent legal issues with former development heads, I believe.

Back during Modern Warfare 2's reign as the leading Call of Duty game, a couple of the head employees at Infinity Ward were caught selling company secrets to competitors -- and they were taken off of the team as a result. Not that I condone what the employees were doing, but it definitely hurt Infinity Ward in the process, both now that the secrets had been sold and because they lost creative minds working on the new game.

However, overall, the game is actually quite enjoyable. Perhaps not worth the $60 I am sure it costs new at GameStop or something, but if you can find it used for $30-$35 from some college student online or something, and you have an Xbox Live connection, then it would probably be a good deal in my book. Until then, though, you can have these lovely MW3 high definition wallpapers.
