An in-depth view of the 4th annual Goth Cruise where 150 goths get together with 2500 norms on a cruise from New Jersey to Bermuda. Why? Well, interestingly, as people grow up they find they no longer consider going to a big party to be a vacation. They want a real vacation, fancy that! Some of the goths on the cruises actually went so far as to refer to themselves as ‘Elder Goths’, a sign that this subculture, unlike others from the 80’s, has survived the passing of time.
PS2 Game Review: Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World
In Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World there are new “dragon missions” that are based on different moments from the anime. Not all the missions are fighting related, there are challenge missions like running to the end of Snake Way under a time limit and exploring an area looking for “gate” or check points, which is also under a time limit. Of course, there are battle based missions, and they are difficult. It doesn’t really matter what level you’re playing at, this game is a challenge and it may take you several tries to complete a mission. Now, this is the first time I’ve played a DBZ game for the PS2, so I found the controls really confusing and I didn’t like the lack of basic training. You get to use “ESS” or “Exciting Skill System”. Those skills can be used to customize a character by adding them to their skill tray. Unlike the previous DBZ games, you can purchase upgrades for the skills.
Blu-ray Review: Firefly The Complete Series
Space Western.
These two words summarize the amazing story of the Serenity and her crew. Now the adventures of Captain Mal Reynolds and the gang are available to own in glorious high definition because Firefly: The Complete Series (one of the best Sci-Fi series ever) is available on Blu-ray! This thrilling series comes to us from the mind of Joss Whedon, best known for his work on Buffy: The Vampire Slayer the TV Series, and most recently, Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog.
In the future the people of Earth have left and traveled out into the universe (or The Verse) in search of opportunity, growth, and profit. Colonies have popped up everywhere and everyone has needs. Luckily the crew of the Serenity is here to provide for those needs.

Nintendo DS Game Review: Bleach The Blade of Fate
In Bleach: The Blade of Fate you have to first go though the basic Story Mode, which is set during the first time in the Soul Society. Playing as Ichigo you go through levels, fight the people in your way, and then save Rukia, which can be relatively hard if you don’t read the cut scenes . When you’ve completed that, things get fun, and easier. New characters are unlocked for Arcade mode Versus mode. You also unlock some of the Extras and the rest of the story modes. There are a total of 23 story modes, each based on a different character and the last one is the really long conclusion of Episode 1. I quite enjoy the multiple Story modes you unlock and the character available.
