So I just got a new surge protector for my office space, bc my $8.99 power strip just isnt gonna cut it when lightning strikes. It hit the neighbors house and took out their stereo and a macbook, so I felt like I shouldn't risk it anymore.
I found the large model Belkin surge protector like the one I had in our living room for $25 off Newegg.com (down from $40). I dont feel like I need to go on much about Newegg.com here, but I assume if you are reading this you already know how awesome a website it is. Always has great prices on just about everything and it gets here guick. But the Surge protector show below has 12 outlets and 8 of them are rotating outlets for those overweight transformer plugs that take up more than one space. It has cable protection and a cord management clip at the end to keep it all nice. Thing guaranties up to 4320 joules of surge protection and will back up to $300,000 on connected equipment damaged. Belkin = win.
Now that I got it up, the power protection that is, time to watch some pre-season football while wasting some zombies.

New Hardware
Hey its been forever since I wrote my first post, but I figured I would post something to get the ball rolling again. Sooo....
I beat Killzone 3 a couple of months ago. The single player campaign was great all the way up to the end. It ended oddly and for a first person shooter, it ended in a starcraft firing at the Helgast. I enjoyed the music and graphics entirely though. The controls have improved from KZ2 so that was a plus. Multiplayer has been upgraded as well. Great multiplayer matches with more customization. It is a blast to play and the kill beep keeps you addicted. Overall I give it a 8.5 out of 10. Great game and has lots of replayability.
The next thing I have been eyeing is the release of the new iPhone (4S/5 Whatever). I want to know details and dates like everyone else and im ready to upgrade. Still not sure whats on it, but im pretty confident it will be a big upgrade from my 3GS. A flash, dual procs, bigger hard drive (everybody wants that... wink wink nudge nudge) and will have a better screen. Anyway that is the new hardware im waiting on as well as the anouncement of the PS Vita release date for the US. Since I lost my PSP Go on an airplane in January I've been without *tear.
As far as the Game line up coming not much to say just the titles, which speak for themselves. I'll let you guess which one I pre-ordered today.
Resistance 3, RAGE, Battlefield 3, Uncharted 3, Call of Duty: MW3
