Weekly Recap for Dec. 14th – 20th

As promised, I got my post count back up from the dismal 5 from last week. We didn’t have too many really heavy hitters, but there were a few noteworthy reviews and whatnot. Here are the links back so you can see anything you may have missed.

Well that about sums up the bigger articles. Enjoy, you guys, and keep reading Everyview!!!

Review: Monster Hitman

Monster HitmanOverview:

Hitman is Monster’s newest product, a tiny 3 swig shot of powerfully potent energy potion. You’re probably most familiar with 6 Hour Power energy shots, and if you’ve been looking then you’ve most likely started to see NOS, Full Throttle, and AMP putting out their own shots.

These shots are designed to give a sufficient kick that lasts for a while and has no traceable crash. Some do it better than others, and I’ll always prefer my energy drinks to be canned, hard hitting, short lived beasts with delicious tastes and aromas, but these shots are a good substitute for those who don’t like the crash, however subtle it may be.

Does Hitman nail it’s target?

Review: Dad’s Blue Cream Soda

Dad's Blue Cream SodaOverview:

Man, I sure do love me some cream soda. But even with my attraction towards the softest of all soft drinks, I’ve never seen blue cream soda before, just your standard gold, red, and clear, so the second I saw this at a local gas station I grabbed it and ran. After paying, of course. The guy at the counter had a gun!

Anyway, the Dad’s company specializes in recreating, or attempting to recreate, olde fashioned drinks that ruled the malt shops and drive-in theaters way back in the day, so as I’m sure you can imagine, most of Dad’s hook is nostalgia which seems to blind some people to the real quality of the drink. I was born in 1990, however, so reminiscing about my youth only brings thoughts of Pokemon, Bill Clinton, and Vanilla Ice, making me a prime candidate to present an honest review.

Review: Amazone Guarana Cigarettes

Amazone Guarana CigarettesFirst off, I do not recommend smoking by anyone of any age. This review is for people who have already made the conscious decision to take on the habit and inform them of other products they might enjoy. If you have not already started smoking then it’s best if you never do.

Overview:

This is possibly the stupidest idea ever. Cigarettes with guarana, an energizing substance often found in energy drinks? That makes absolutely no sense. It’s like, “Hey! I wanna run now but I can’t because it hurts my lungs”. Pissing me off. Whoever thought of these probably feels like the worlds biggest moron, and rightfully so. This was a stupid idea.

Money Saver: Kingston 8GB MicroSDHC with Adapter

This is just a quick note for everyone, and you can expect more of these from me in the future. I just came across an 8 GB MicroSDHC card for $15.99 with free shipping from Newegg. This is a great deal, as you can find the exact same thing from Amazon for $22 and change, and they don’t ship for free. So if you’re looking for a good card for your phone, camera, MP3 player, or whatever you have that can use a MicroSDHC or an SD (since you can use it with the adapter as a normal SD card), check it out here.

Club Nintendo is Finally in America!!!

Club Nintendo is, for those who don’t know, a virtual “club” where owners of Nintendo consoles and games can register the serial numbers on each and earn online “coins” which can be used to buy real products. The most prestigious item you can get on Club Nintendo at the current point in time is the Game & Watch Collection for the Nintendo DS, which is going for 800 coins.

Speaking of coins, Wii disc games are worth 50, DS are worth 30, and Virtual Console are worth 10. I have no idea if old GameCube and GBA games are worth anything, as it’s completely impossible to log onto the website due to high traffic. Which is a pain in the ass.

I’ll bring you more on Club Nintendo as soon as I’m actually able to sign into it. Until then, keep reading Everyview and check out the Club Nintendo website for yourself right here.

Review: Kronik Energy

Kronik EnergyOverview:

You’d probably think a generic energy drink called Kronik would be totally gross, as did I. I did, however, walk away from the can feeling slightly less satisfied than other drinks would leave me, yet a little surprised that I wasn’t throwing up or seeing clowns come out of the walls.

Straight from the can:

WARNING: MAY BE PSYCHOLOGICALLY ADDICTING

Why is this legal but Cocaine Energy isn’t? Oh well.

Review: Rum and Cola Bodyshot Little Cigars

Rum and Cola BodyShot cigars

First off, I do not recommend smoking by anyone of any age. This review is for people who have already made the conscious decision to take on the habit and inform them of other products they might enjoy. If you have not already started smoking then it’s best if you never do.

Overview:

You may remember my review for the Trance flavor of Bodyshots which was posted a while back. They were a decent smoke scoring a 7.3/10 here on Everyview, held back mainly by their odor. The review has proven to be rather popular, staying on or around the top posts since written, and has warranted me several hits from Google and Yahoo, therefore I decided to review another flavor; Rum and Cola.

Review: Audition (PC)

audition

Overview

Audition is a dancing/rhythm online game made by Nexon, producers of one of the more famous MMOs – Maple Story. It has several different game modes, most of which are pretty similar, presenting you with a set of keys which you have to press in order very quickly, then press the space bar on the fourth beat of the measure, which is indicated by a little shaded area. There is one other mode that is very different, called Beat Up. It can be played in 4 or 6-key mode (some people say there is 8-key, but I haven’t seen it yet), and it’s a lot like Dance Dance Revolution.

Review: Full Throttle Blue Demon

Full Throttle Blue DemonOverview:

Blue Demon, the cousin of Fury, is a blue agave flavor supplement from Full Throttle. Chances are that you don’t know what blue agave is, so I’m going to tell you. The blue agave, or tequila agave, is a plant found most prominently in Mexico and is used to make — as you may have guessed — tequila. It’s basically a needle free cactus with a succulent, sweet tasting heart which is used for many alcoholic beverages, but mainly just tequila. There, you’ve learned something useless today!

So does Blue Demon, like tequila, cause your clothes to fall off? Let’s find out.
