Well, this is not it. I'll post my own trick some other time. Check out the clip below... enjoy dol !!!!&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Hold the lighter in the standard Trip Flick/Palm Squeeze grip (lighter sideways, hinge facing up, resting on your curled ring finger, bottom of the base pressed against the webbing between your thumb and index finger, with your thumb and index finger gripping the cap either side). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;I find that having the placement of the thumb and index close to the hinge helps both getting the lighter open and the spin later on. So, gripping with your thumb and index push/squeeze the lighter into your webbing (with a slight upwards direction) and watch it flip open. If you are still gripping the cap tight it is most likely horizontal with your thumb and index. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Now let up on that grip, but not too much, and let gravity force the lighter to rotate 90. Try to do this Flip and release the pressure move almost simultaneously, but be careful not to loose the lighter. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Still loosely holding the cap with your thumb and index reach over with your ring finger and place it on the striking wheel. You may find that your little finger automatically comes around to rest under the lighter. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Now, apply pressure on the striking wheel with your ring finger and force the lighter base to rotate up through the hole created by the thumb and index finger grip (you may need the bottom of the lighter to slightly press against your palm to light).  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;After it’s lit, using your thumb and index finger slightly, bring the cap towards the base (almost as if closing the lighter) and place your ring finger on the cap corner opposite the hinge. You have 2 options from here: 1. immediately apply pressure with your ring finger and force the lighter completely through the hole to give an “Around the World”-effect. If all the moves are done fluidly the effect should be a non-stopping 360 spin ending with a lit lighter. 2. Wait a while. The flame is lit but hidden from view (as was the striking move). Suddenly force the lighter through the hole, as above, to give a “Hidden Dragon” effect. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="350" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/sXbWUwlBMUc"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/sXbWUwlBMUc" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="350" width="425"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20153348-113922156024337747?l=santeriaz.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://santeriaz.blogspot.com/feeds/113922156024337747/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20153348&amp;postID=113922156024337747&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20153348/posts/default/113922156024337747'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20153348/posts/default/113922156024337747'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://santeriaz.blogspot.com/2006/02/zippo-trick.html' title='Zippo Trick'/><author><name>Santeria</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04249623239882233513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/7418/eye34li.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20153348.post-113794758812703046</id><published>2006-01-22T08:25:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-22T08:58:07.966-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Dinosaur Jr (Band Bio &amp; Discography)</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/146/dinosaurjr4bq.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/146/dinosaurjr4bq.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dinosaurjr.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Dinosaur Jr Official Site&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;"Dinosaur Jr. was largely responsible for returning&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;lead guitar to indie-rock and, along with their peers the Pixies, they injected late-'80s alternative rock with monumental levels of pure guitar noise. As the group's career progressed, it turned into a vehicle for J. Mascis' songwriting and playing, which had the ultimate result of&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;turning Dinosaur's albums into largely similar affairs. Over time, Mascis shed his hardcore punk roots and revealed himself to be a disciple of Neil Young, crafting simple songs that were delivered at a crushing volume and spiked with shards of feedback. Consequently, Dinosaur Jr.'s '90s albums -- when the group was essentially a front for Mascis -- don't sound particularly revolutionary, even with their subtle sonic innovations, yet their original '80s records for SST were a different matter. On their early records, Dinosaur lurched forward, taking weird detours into free-form noise and melodic soloing before the songs are brought back into relief by Mascis' laconic whine. Dinosaur's SST Records laid the foundation for alternative rock's commercial breakthrough in the early '90s, and while the band's profile was raised substantially in the wake of Nirvana's success, they never really became much bigger than highly respected cult figures.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;J. Mascis (b. Joseph D. Mascis; guitar, vocal) formed Dinosaur Jr. in &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Amherst&lt;/st1:city&gt;,  &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;Massachusetts&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;, after his hardcore punk band Deep Wound broke up in 1983. Hooking up with fellow high school student Lou Barlow (bass), Mascis initially played drums in Dinosaur, but shortly afterward, former All White Jury drummer Murph (b. Emmett "Patrick" Murphy), joined the group, and J. moved to guitar. Over the next year, the group developed a local following, and in 1985, the trio released their debut album, Dinosaur , on the &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Homestead&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt; label. The record and the group's crushingly loud concerts developed a cult following over the next year. By the end of 1986, a hippie-rock group called Dinosaur -- featuring former members of Jefferson Airplane and Country Joe &amp; the Fish -- sued the band, which changed its name to Dinosaur Jr.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;In 1987, Dinosaur Jr. signed to Black Flag's indie label SST and released You're Living All Over Me , which became an underground sensation, with groups like Sonic Youth championing Mascis' wild, feedback-drenched guitar. Early in 1988, they released the seminal single "Freak Scene," a song that captured the feeling and tone of the emerging American post-punk underground. "Freak Scene" became a college radio hit, and it led the way for their acclaimed 1988 album, Bug . Although the band's popularity continued to grow, tensions were developing between Mascis and Barlow, who rarely talked to each other. In 1989, Mascis told Barlow that the group was breaking up; the following day, he "re-formed" Dinosaur Jr., this time without Barlow, who went on to form Sebadoh.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Without Barlow, Dinosaur Jr. relied on a rotating array of guest bassists, including Don Fleming and the Screaming Trees' Van Connor. In 1989, the group had an underground hit with their non-LP cover of the Cure's "Just Like Heaven." The following year, they signed with Sire Records. After "Just Like Heaven," Mascis remained quiet for several years, as he produced acts like Buffalo Tom and collaborated with friends like Sonic Youth and Fleming's Velvet Monkeys. Green Mind , Dinosaur's 1991 major-label debut, was recorded almost entirely alone by Mascis, and its varied, eclectic sound was received poorly in many alternative rock circles. Before the Green Mind tour, former Snakepit member Mike Johnson became the group's full-time bassist. On the subsequent tour, Dinosaur Jr. was supported by Nirvana, whose success with Nevermind soon overshadowed Dinosaur's. Instead of capitalizing on the commercial breakthrough of alternative rock, Dinosaur released an EP, Whatever's Cool With Me , in early 1992 and disappeared to record their next album.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Released early in 1993, Where You Been benefited greatly from the commercial breakthrough of alternative rock, and many of the articles surrounding the album's release hailed Mascis as an alternative godfather. It became the first Dinosaur album to chart, peaking at number 50, and it generated the modern rock hit "Start Choppin'."&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;That summer, the group played on the third Lollapalooza tour. Mascis recorded the band's next album without Murph, who unceremoniously left the band; he later joined the Lemonheads. Dinosaur Jr. released Without a Sound in 1994 to mixed reviews, but the album was a moderate hit, thanks to the MTV and modern rock hit "Feel the Pain." In the fall of 1995, Mascis launched his first solo acoustic tour, which was captured on his first official solo album, Martin &amp; Me, released in the spring of 1996. After contributing several Brian Wilson-styled songs to Alison Anders' 1996 film Grace of My Heart -- he also made an appearance in the movie -- Mascis completed Dinosaur's next album on his own, leaving Johnson to his solo career. Upon its spring 1997 release, Hand It Over was hailed as Mascis' best album in years, although it failed to generate a significant hit."&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;

Kennedy, Raccoon City Police Department's idealistic rookie cop from Resident Evil 2. It has been 6 years since the destruction of &lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;Raccoon&lt;/st1:placename&gt; &lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;City&lt;/st1:placetype&gt; and in that time, the &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;US&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; government has been able to destroy the evil Umbrella Corporation. Six years later and Kennedy has been tasked to look into the abduction of the President's daughter and his investigation has led him to a mysterious location in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Spain&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;Cue being left in the countryside with no support and ten bullets in your gun. The action is non-stop from there on.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;As for Gameplay, it is fairly intense if not a little frustrating at times. While the camera angle has been changed to a third person perspective the evil villagers who would all be comfortable in the Texas Chainsaw massacre film have a tenacity to appear our of nowhere and strike you with a big pitch fork. It's something that is a little annoying, but luckily the game doesn’t fall into the usual problems where the camera only acts as a hindrance rather than a benefit.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;This combined with hordes of villagers means that you’ll have to be on your toes to avoid getting killed. Gunning them down isn’t as easy as you might expect even if your handgun is fitted with laser sights and depending on where you hit them will depend on how fast they go down.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;Run out of ammo (which is very easy as each villager takes at least three bullets to take down) and you’re left with a knife and your swinging action. The problem here, is that moving is rather clunky with no strafe available. In addition to this, you can’t move and swing your knife at the same time and it’s a case of hope and pray as you fight that pitch fork guy, the end result normally that you take a couple in the face.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;Those looking for a challenge will be pleased to know that there is one here. The monsters and bad guys throughout the game are fairly intelligent when it comes to making sure you end up dead – at one point trying to catch our breath we hid up a tower only to be inundated with flaming bottles from the villagers below.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;

 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;While fans of the series will love the graphics, the game play, storyline and the more focused approach to action rather than puzzles, for the rest of us the game may come across frustrating compared to your usual hack and slash horror game.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;" &gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;

But stick with it - it gets much better.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;With that slight criticism out of the way, like a genie out of its bottle you're plunged straight into the stunning high-rise world of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;st1:city&gt;&lt;st1:place&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Babylon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;, leaping across rooftops like that bloke out of the BBC adverts, before heading down into the dingy sub-levels for some amazing underground exploration. And it really is all about the exploring and the jumping. Each new room, every corner you turn and all the new locations you enter require a lot of thinking. This is no run-and-go action game, it's like one gigantic three-dimensional Rubik's Cube laid out before you on your tv screen.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;GYMNASTIC MENTALIST&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;All of the locations in The Two Thrones are huge, fiendish and complicated environments that require plenty of puzzle solving to get through. But wait, it's not as boring or as difficult as it sounds. The Prince is on your side. Balance on a beam or dangle from a high ledge and he always instinctively knows what to do. If there's a jump you need to make, just press X and he'll make it. If there's a ledge to be grabbed, he'll do it. First time, and in style. There's no fiddly, annoying, pixel-perfect control needed here.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;Gaps that seem impossible to bridge can be leaped across in one massive, superhuman jump, with our hero manfully locking onto whatever you're vaguely pointing him at. In all our many hours of play we've never once died from a control issue. Instead, death comes from the player's own confusion, whether it's enemies forcing you to rush, or your own failure to judge the timing of a trap or an opponent's movement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;OK, here come the &lt;b&gt;spoilers&lt;/b&gt;, don't read this paragraph if you're a serious Prince of Persia fan. The Two Thrones goes a bit Desperate Housewives in its story telling, with the plot narrated by the unfortunately dead Babylonian babe Kaileena. This ends up somehow making the Prince possessed by the Sands of Time - which turns him evil, more powerful and gives him new combat skills.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;The regular Prince also has new skills to help him fight too, and rather than being pointless additions they really do enhance the PoP experience. It's now possible to jump diagonally off certain angled pieces of wall, he can slide down between gaps and is much more acrobatic and capable of leaping, swooping attacks on enemies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;But the biggest new feature is the Speed Kill - a kind of simple stealth feature that bucks the stealth game trend by actually being fun to use. Now you have to pay attention to which way enemies are facing and walking, but don't panic - this is no Metal Gear Solid sneakathon. The guards patrol in lines or loops, and you sneak up behind them, pressing triangle to initiate a Speed Kill then reacting to what happens on screen and slashing your sword when it shimmers. Simple.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;st1:city&gt;&lt;st1:place&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Babylon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;'s high buildings and alleyways are perfect for this sneaky play, and the beauty of Prince of Persia's new stealth emphasis is there's no punishment if you fail. Mess up a Speed Kill and you're stuck with fighting the guys normally. It's not Game Over, just Game Slightly Extended by having a laborious fight instead of a swift stealth kill.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;A WILD STAB IN THE DARK&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;But even the fighting bits are fun. The Prince has sword slashes, jumps and throws at his disposal, which lead to some lovely fighting moments. You can stab away, blocking occasionally, or try something advanced and posh like a couple of stabs, a jump over the top of your enemy and then a throw to dump him off a ledge to his death - it's a very fluid system of combat. It's really up to you how you dispose of the Bad People.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;Oh, and there's that Dark Prince as well. Because of that weird plot thing to do with time travel which we don't really understand, everything's gone a bit wrong and the Prince sometimes becomes possessed by the Sands of Time. This makes you the Dark Prince, who's a bit tasty at fighting but is hindered by a constantly draining life bar, thanks to the possessions that suck his life force away.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt;So you have to fight quickly, finishing off enemies at double speed to absorb their life essence and keep yourself going. The first time this happens you're likely to be confused as hell, bound to get stuck and will almost certainly die. But the Dark Prince, with his new whip-like chain weapon is one heck of a fighter. That chain can also be used &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;st1:state&gt;&lt;st1:place&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Indiana&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:85%;" &gt; Jones-style to leap gaps - which makes these quicker, dirtier sections faster and much more fun.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style="font-family: arial;font-family:arial;font-size:85%;" class="bodycopy"  &gt;&lt;object height="350" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3a7t4wvQsUU"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3a7t4wvQsUU" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="350" width="425"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20153348-113682029265088025?l=santeriaz.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://santeriaz.blogspot.com/feeds/113682029265088025/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20153348&amp;postID=113682029265088025&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20153348/posts/default/113682029265088025'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20153348/posts/default/113682029265088025'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://santeriaz.blogspot.com/2006/01/prince-of-persia-3-two-thrones.html' title='Prince Of Persia 3 : The Two Thrones'/><author><name>Santeria</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04249623239882233513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/7418/eye34li.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20153348.post-113630329248802566</id><published>2006-01-03T07:31:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-03T08:33:27.660-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Soulfly - The Dark Ages (Album Review)</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img433.imageshack.us/img433/1570/darkagescover9oi.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2749/2009/320/dark%20ages%20cover%202.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Label:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.roadrunnerrecords.co.uk/" target="_blank"&gt;Roadrunner Records &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Release Date:&lt;/b&gt;          3rd October 2005&lt;br /&gt;     &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Genre:&lt;/span&gt; Metal&lt;br /&gt;     &lt;/span&gt;*scroll for video below (Soulfly - Frontlines)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Track Listing:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; 1.

Now, he and his crew bring us &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dark Ages&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;, almost completely abandoning that trademark in favor of delivering their heaviest and possibly best album to date. In fact, we might want to refer to them this time around as “Soulpultura”. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;After a brief intro, “Babylon” kicks in, and while it doesn’t sound a whole lot different from their previous heavier material, you can almost sense there is something brewing under the surface. It doesn’t hurt that the production is dirtier than normal, giving this track, and the rest of the album, a harder edge. About 45 seconds into “Carved Inside”, we hear the first shades of old school &lt;strong&gt;Sepultura&lt;/strong&gt;, sounding almost like an outtake from the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Arise &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;album. It is no coincidence, then, that the next track, “Arise Again”, follows suit after about a minute of the standard &lt;strong&gt;Soulfly &lt;/strong&gt;grooves. It wouldn’t be a &lt;strong&gt;Soulfly &lt;/strong&gt;album without some special guests, and we get none other than Billy Milano dropping some vocals on the predominantly Spanish language track “Molotov”. In an interesting side note, conflicting schedules resulted in his parts being recorded via cell phone. Ah, technology. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;This all gets taken to another level with “Frontlines”, which storms out of the gate with a riff taken right out of &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Beneath the Remains &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;– and you thought Max didn’t have it in him anymore! The track comes complete with a quiet acoustic outro played over various battlefield noises. “Innerspirit” is classic &lt;strong&gt;Soulfly &lt;/strong&gt;with the otherworldly voice of Kojot (&lt;strong&gt;Eyesburn&lt;/strong&gt;), who also appeared on the track “Moses” from &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Prophecy&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, singing the chorus. This is one of the moments where the multi-instrumentation occurs, with acoustic guitars and bongos adding to the trippy vibe of this one. “Corrosion Creeps” has a bit of nu-metal feel to it, but that is sandwiched in between more of the fast, thrashy riffing that quickly becomes this album’s trademark. On the other hand, “Riotstarter” is more tribal techno than metal. It's interesting but a bit strange and out of place here. Thankfully, “Fuel the Hate” comes along and wipes any bad memories away with another ferocious thrash attack. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;All the world music factors the band has been holding back on this whole time are finally unleashed on the latest installment of the “Soulfly” saga, aptly titled “Soulfly V”. A lengthy 11 minute journey of new age acoustic guitars that is ideal for communing with nature, or at least smoking a big fat bowl of it. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;If you had given up on &lt;strong&gt;Soulfly &lt;/strong&gt;long ago, or never even given them a chance, now is the time to correct that. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Dark Ages &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;combines the best parts of &lt;strong&gt;Sepultura &lt;/strong&gt;with the best parts of &lt;strong&gt;Soulfly &lt;/strong&gt;into an album that I just can’t seem to get enough of. Score another victory for Max with an album that is better than anything his former bandmates have released since his departure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/T3w0IuYow6c"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/T3w0IuYow6c" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20153348-113630329248802566?l=santeriaz.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://santeriaz.blogspot.com/feeds/113630329248802566/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20153348&amp;postID=113630329248802566&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20153348/posts/default/113630329248802566'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20153348/posts/default/113630329248802566'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://santeriaz.blogspot.com/2006/01/soulfly-dark-ages-album-review.html' title='Soulfly - The Dark Ages (Album Review)'/><author><name>Santeria</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04249623239882233513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/7418/eye34li.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20153348.post-113543071157092688</id><published>2005-12-24T04:22:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-09T08:00:55.340-08:00</updated><title type='text'>God Of War (2005)</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://cover6.cduniverse.com/CDUCoverArt/Games/Large/6800332.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2749/2009/320/God%20Of%20War.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:courier new;" &gt;The Best PS2 Game ever created&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; in 2005 ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Start Playing : 12 Dec 2005&lt;br /&gt;Finish : 17 Dec       2005&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;GOD OF WAR for the Playstation 2 by Sony brings ancient Greek mythology to life, putting players in the role of Kratos, a deeply troubled Spartan warrior who must battle Hydra, Cyclopses, and even Ares, the God of war himself, to save Athens from destruction. Fortunately, Kratos has several weapons at his disposal. His main weapons are called the blades of chaos, blades actually connected to Kratos’s skin by chains. As the game progresses, Kratos will be able to upgrade his weapons and buy new combo attacks by collecting red orbs, plus some of the Gods of Olympus will bestow upon him new powers and weapons to assist him against Ares. While the game plays mostly like other action adventures, combat offers a unique variation to the standard button mashing. Some enemies can be defeated by a series of special attacks initiated by correctly memorizing and entering a series of button and control pad commands. These commands will make Kratos launch a series of special, context-sensitive attacks to defeat his enemies. GOD OF WAR is no slouch in the extras area, either. Once the game is defeated, a series of behind the scenes videos become available, as does a mini-game and the challenging God Mode. Beating the game on God Mode unlocks even more extras. Mature action adventure fans should check out GOD OF WAR for a graphically stunning adventure in ancient Greece. Mythology buffs, too, will enjoy interacting with some of their favorite characters from Greek mythology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://us.playstation.com/Content/OGS/SCUS-97399/Site/main.asp"&gt;Official Site&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/yg3jBUMSqdY"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/yg3jBUMSqdY" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20153348-113543071157092688?l=santeriaz.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://santeriaz.blogspot.com/feeds/113543071157092688/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20153348&amp;postID=113543071157092688&amp;isPopup=true' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20153348/posts/default/113543071157092688'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20153348/posts/default/113543071157092688'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://santeriaz.blogspot.com/2005/12/god-of-war-2005.html' title='God Of War (2005)'/><author><name>Santeria</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04249623239882233513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/7418/eye34li.gif'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20153348.post-113541824792368959</id><published>2005-12-24T01:41:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-24T02:03:00.100-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Ska... what is it?</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ska&lt;/b&gt; is a form of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamaica" title="Jamaica"&gt;Jamaican&lt;/a&gt; music which began in the late &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1950s" title="1950s"&gt;1950s&lt;/a&gt;.
