Have you ever been on a really long flight, they usually include in flight movies or a TV on the back of every seat so you can pick your own movies from a selection of choices. My favorite part is playing the games they have, that caveman puzzle game is awesome! I’ve logged 40 hours on that game during flights and because I always have to reset from the beginning still haven’t beaten it.
It has been recently announced that certain flights will include PSPs for your entertainment during long flights. IFE Services has announced a new partnership with SCEA to offer airlines the ability to add custom tailored PSPs to flights. These PSPs will be “fully certified for use in-flight,” and they will also include an extended life battery which offers up to 11 hours of playing time. IFE will also offer “comprehensive crew training” for flight attendants of interested airlines (Training on how to use a PSP? Certain flight attendants need to get with the program here!)
Just wait until we here a kid on a plain yell, “Come on! Come on he’s got the bomb! get him already you stupid AI!”

After releasing the remake of Amiga’s classic Alien Breed for the Xbox 360 as Alien Breed Evolution, Team17 will now release the remake for the Playstation 3 and PC during summer 2010.
Alien Breed: Impact will be released digitally on the PSN (PS3) and Steam (PC). This version is a heavily expanded edition of the XBLA arcade hit “Alien Breed: Evolution”, with suggestions from the community being translated into brand new features by the Team17 developers.
Alien Breed: Impact is now tougher and requires more individual exploration than its predecessor. It features expanded customisability, with upgrades available for weapons that can be purchased using cash looted from corpses and lockers. If that isn’t enough to whet your appetite, there are enhancements to the co-operative gameplay experience for you and a shooting buddy, not to mention the “Prologue” campaign, which takes players through an updated and expanded introduction to the world of Alien Breed. Alien Breed: Impact is a testament to Team17’s ongoing desire to improve and to recognize the community as important contributors to their games. Studio Head Martyn Brown echoes these sentiments: “We’re always very keen to hear what our communities are saying about our titles and greatly consider feedback. For Alien Breed: Impact, it was great that we went back to the design and improved the game in many areas, meaning a much tighter gameplay experience for all.” – Team 17

Happy Birthday Comment Contest
It is my birthday today (May 27) and to celebrate my mortality I’m going to do what you are supposed to do at a birthday party, Eat Cake and Give presents! Oh, I’m supposed to receive presents on my birthday? I have these presents all set up and everything already, what am I supposed to do with them now? I’ll just give them away in a comment contest anyway.
So here is what you have to do for a chance to win:
Prize Packages: the prize packages have their own special items, so pick wisely. As always the codes below may not work, since sometimes I receive dead codes and have no way to test them out to make sure they work. The developer may have given me a dead code by accident, but if it is dead, I’m not getting you a replacement.
Prize Package 1
Prize Package 2
Prize Package 3
~~~~~~~
Wish me a happy birthday, and pick the prize package you want. I will pick ONE RANDOM winner in an unknown amount of time to receive the prize package they picked.
There are no replacements for dead codes, because I don’t have any replacements.
I have also not specified what any of the prizes are because this is more fun!
No Complaining about what you receive or I WILL blacklist you. It was free! Don’t complain!
