I just recently got a PS2 after being out of the video game thing (haven't owned a system since the Turbografx.) I'm looking for a simple game that will allow me to just go crazy, or run and gun, if you will, since all I have so far are sports games. I don't even know if there is anything...

Sorry for the 2nd house-related post this week, but any insight would be much appreciated. Earlier this year, my neighbor in our townhome complex decided to take a trip to Korea, and as luck would have it, 2 water leaks decided to wreak havoc with my garage ceiling. Now, the design of this...

Ever since I moved into my money pit last year, I've been dying to change the ugly medium blue carpet, especially since it clashes with well, pretty much everything. Then today while surfing the net, I came across a few sites that talk about dyeing your carpet and being able to change the...

After months of job searching, I finally got some good news this week, and I'm going to treat myself to a new watch. Does anybody have any recommendations as to which companies offer a relatively nice watch for $125 or less? I really like the one at the link below, just to give you an idea...

I plan on purchasing a townhome or condo very soon, and I'm doing some research on appliances. I have my heart set on a stainless steel or titanium refrigerator, but the only one that falls within my budget is one from LG Electronics. I know LG is relatively new to the US, but I'm finding it...

I recently bought an Onkyo HTS660 for some relatives who will be using a PS2 as the DVD player, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to setup the PS2 so that it passes to DTS signal to the receiver. I looked in the manual, and went into the audio setup to turn the optical output on, and...

My significant other and I would like to experience snow without actually going to a ski resort, as we can't afford to have the whole experience of renting a cabin and going skiing or snowboarding. I know its a strange question, but if anybody knows an alternative to driving 2-3 hours up...

Is there any advance word on this movie? I just saw the trailer for this new movie produced by Luc Besson, and I have to say it looked pretty interesting; typical Besson style shots, along with some crazy action choreography. I believe it is directed by Cory Yuen who I don't particularly adore...

Are there any plans for a Region 1 dvd release of Taxi 1 and 2, produced by Luc Besson? I recently borrowed a Korean all region version of these two movies, and found them pretty entertaining.

What can one do to replace one of those cardboard(is that right) cases some of those special edition DVDs come in? For example, Fight Club, Seven, Tombstone, Pearl Harbor, etc? I ask because I discovered my Unbreakable case had a big gash on it, and I'd like to have it replaced somehow...

It baffles me how guys on AICN, Dark Horizons, etc get into advance movie screenings, often times months before the actual release date. How the heck do they do it? Living in Southern California, one would think I'd be exposed to some opportunities, but I've only been approached by guys...

Just wondering if anybody has used this antenna, as I'm looking for a new antenna I can put in my garage.

I want to adorn my walls with some movie posters, but my room is pathetically tiny, so 2 normal 27" x 40" posters would almost take up a whole wall. I'm trying to find posters about half that size, but all the sites I've found sell only the original sizes. Allposters, Postersfast, Rick's...

I just had to know more about this after wasting half an hour of my life watching the Abtronic infomercial on tv. Has anybody else heard about this? It sends some sort of signal to your body to contract your muscles over and over again, simulating a real workout, and is supposed to burn away...

About two weeks ago, I posted a topic about how my Sony DVD player just stopped recognizing discs in the tray. I finally got a reply from the repair shop, and they want $95 to replace the "spindle bar." I asked what it was, and he said it "spins the disc." I'm not well versed in these kind...

As if my stress level hasn't been high enough lately, I was watching The Mexican today, when it suddenly froze. This sort of thing has never happened to me until today, and this is with a year old Sony S560D DVD player. I first tried to return to the main menu, but the player didn't respond...

After reading Shade's post about the improper installation of his satellite system, I became worried about mine as well. I purchased a Dish Network system through AllSat, and called a local place to install it for me, since I am not exactly mechanically inclined. :) Anyway, the man who came...

I'm looking into signing up with Dish Network, after reading all the glowing reviews. I have a question about recording programming with a VCR though. I keep reading that the Dish receivers have an S-video output, so how would I record with my Sony SLV-N50? (It's Sony's lowest model VCR from...

I'm researching 16:9 direct-view HD ready sets from Toshiba, Panasonic and Philips, and I've found that they are very expensive when compared to rear projection HD ready sets. For example, my friend recently purchased a 65" Mitsubishi HD 16:9 set for $4000, but a 34-36" direct view from the...
