help I broke my

a palin presidency

I, eh, I don't agree. This song feels like, to me, the worst use of
irony - justifying a goofy premise with a poor execution, because
hey, they know it's bad so it's alright. You've got lyrics about how
manly and great they are, but hey, it's Weezer, we all know it's
ironic and therefore OK. Also, the lyrics are really bad ('you got
the hots to ride on my plane?') so people who don't really know
Weezer can get in on the joke, that it's ironic. Then, you've got a
mishmash of different musical parts, complete with bad clichés like
sirens, choral arrangement, atonal shouting, and a monologue, all
without any underlying cohesion. The whole thing is a monument to
smarm and ironic indie posturing. It's a joke where the comedy is
supposed to come from the fact that the execution is as poor as the
premise deserves.

If you have a burning desire to listen to joke music, why not get
Tenacious D's first album? The joke there is that the execution is
much better than the goofy premise deserves, which makes for, you
know, listenable music. Or maybe you'd like Tiger Woods by Dan Bern

This. Level design was always one of the hallmarks of Sonic games, and it looks like this new game is leaving it by the wayside. This game could be a step up from the other 3D games, maybe, but the gameplay doesn't look very compelling.

The Pixies are amazing. I'm buying this immediately.

As for Weezer, this is all that has to be said: http://www.somethingawful.com/d/garbage-day/weezer-greatest-man.php

Rock band songs and Katamari levels

Dude, yes. I'm hoping for the entire Pixies catalogue!

God I love this band.

I know there's no chance it's gonna be 2-d, but...

Pleaseohpleaseohplease be in 2-d

you're buying RockBand songs you don't like, at $2 a pop, just for the sake of completionism?

Whyn'cha donate some money my way, huh? That's crazy.

With all the talk about media streaming, it took me months to realize I could just hook up my external drive (home of all my media anyway) directly to the Xbox, and navigate a fully-controlled file structure with the xbox remote. Seriously, who needs streaming? 500GB media drive FTW.
