God of War for Guitar Hero 3 @-@

Every PS3 owner will be able to download a free song for Guitar Hero 3. That song will be from God of War.

Hey I think its fair, 360 owners got a Halo song, PS3 owners should get something too, I'm just glad that they did not pick one from Killzone.

The song that they pick is called "The End Begins (To Rock)", a guitar-heavy reworking of God of War II's title theme.

The song will be free and they'll be part of the PSN update tomorrow.

And If you don't have Guitar Hero 3 you can just listen to the song because it will be made available in an downloadable form on the PSN.

Here is a video for it:

E-mail Still a no-go T-T

C2008 - Registration Inquiry / Changes

So here are all the emails I have trying to get us into the pre-show, But sadly nothing has changed:

TechKnow Podcast to registration Jun 3 (1 day ago)

Hello my name is -------- and I have some changes that are needed.
Under Nickname I would like Kinkoman
Also on Friday’s ticket it says Ms ---------- and I am a Mr.
Also I had a question, both My Co-host and I bought at full price for each day tickets, for all four days, we do a blog/podcast and would like to attend the pre-show, as well. My question for you is under the circumstance can we still pay the price that we have already paid but still get a 4-day pass so we can get into the pre-show? Or is there a way we can but a pre-show ticket?

Thanks,
Kinkoman

"You ever wonder why we're here?"

I'm about as happy as a turkey when he finds out that thanksgiving is canceled. My favorite show is back.

Red vs. Blue is back in the start of its new series, Red vs. Blue: Reconstruction. So far there have been two episodes, however they call them chapters.

Now if you have never heard of red vs. blue before don't start off watching this, you would be as confused as a bird being eaten by a worm, wow I'm done with those.

OK, anyways if you have not seen it, buy it, rent it, or just watch it somehow because roosterteeth's RvB started with The Blood Gulch Chronicles, and that is 100 episodes in itself.

However if you choose to skip it, I can't stop you.

Chapters air on Mondays at http://www.rvb.roosterteeth.com/home.php

So go and watch them all.

Thanks,

Now for the bad new I had a new video to put up today, two actually. However youtube is being mean and a jerk. Every time I try to upload, even though the videos are under 10min and under the MB requirement, it wont let me upload.

Soooooo I'll try again tomorrow after school, and that is all I got for now.

Thanks,

Why are comics so...evil T-T

As you all know PTK123 and I were planning to go to Comic-Con with the 4-day pass. We would be there all four days plus the pre-show. Now I kept putting off registering to get the passes. But this morning I went on the site to do it, and this is what I saw:


So.... needless to say, a few bad and evil words came out of my mouth. So I had no idea what to do, this recked my whole day. After school I came to the conclusion that we can't hurt are readers, only though there are a few of you, so we are still going....all four days at 1 day pass cost, just for you. By the way its almost twice the price. So what the bad new other then our empty wallets, no pre-show, it only for the people with 4-day passes.

Wait, NO sorry I won't stand for that, I will get into to that pre-show one way or another. Hmmm what will I do. Well After much thinking I made up my mind I am going to email them and ask if they will let us "upgrade" to a 4-Day pass, still at full four day, 1 day passes price. It not like its going to make them lose money, they would make more. See I want you guys and gals to see the Comic-Con at its best and seeing it then would be it.

I will post my email and what they say, if they respond.

Thanks,
Kinkoman

Spread the Fiery love.....or not...

Mozilla is doing a rather cool thing, they are trying to beat down IE. With the release of FireFox 3 come a new power Internet browsing saga. Mozilla say that FireFox three is the "The browser that has it all." And what do you do with that power? Break a record, of course, Duh. If you go to http://www.spreadfirefox.com/ you get this message:

Set a Guinness World Record
Enjoy a Better Web

Sounds like a good deal, right? All you have to do is get FireFox 3 during Download Day to help set the record for most software downloads in 24 hours - it’s that easy. We're not asking you to swallow a sword or to balance 30 spoons on your face, although that would be kind of awesome.

By the way, the official date for the launch of FireFox 3 will be posted here soon - so check back! Join our community and this effort by pledging today.

___________________________________________________________________

I think that this is a perfect idea. Not only does it attract new users via the site and, if they make it, the book itself, It also bring the community together in a strange, yet fun way.

So, what are they shooting for, 5 million downloads. On the date of the release of FireFox 2 they had 1.6 million downloads, they want 62.5% more downloads then last time.

So what do you do, the same thing that I did go there and pledge. All you have to do is enter where you are, like China or USA, and your E-mail address and your set.

They already have 506,117 total pledges already. From Alaska to Greenland to Japan people are pledging left and right. So do your part in the cause and pledge right now.

Thanks,
TechKnow Team

New Video, Well kind of sort of...

OK, my first of many videos are up. But this really does not count.

1. Know about the site already and don't need to see the video
or...
2. You saw the video and now your here reading about the video you just saw...@.@

Don't worry this gets better when we start doing videos that don't have to do with the site.

Anyway here it is:


Thanks,
