Join Fantasy Feud for All Your Fantasy Sports Needs

Hey there.  I love sports.  So much so, that I take part in fantasy sports all the time.  Fantasy football is my game.  For 17 weeks, I get to be the GM of my team (the name of my team is ALWAYS Creeping Death) and I get to battle friends for a full season for football supremacy!  But now that the NFL Playoffs are coming to an end and fantasy football is done and done for the year, I decided to check out some of the other fantasy sports for the first time.  I joined a few free leagues and tried out more than a few websites.  After about a month of trying out different sytsems and websites, I find that the guys over at Fantasy Feud do it best!  

Happy New Year!

New Trent TravelPak+ Review

Hey there.  Not too long ago, I received an Email from our good friends at New Trent and asked if I would be interested in joining their VIP program (still in beta).  I jumped on the chance to be able to participate.  I'm a huge fan of New Trent and their products so to be able to join their VIP program and help spread the word about New Trent was an opportunity that I simply could not pass up.  As a VIP member, I received a welcome package.  The package included a New Trent T shirt and the New Trent Travelpak+ External Battery Charger.  I've spent some time with the Travelpak+ and am now ready to give you my thoughts and tell you about my experience with it.  But first, some technical details about the New Trent Travelpak+.

2014, Metallman is Ready

Ms Jacqui Holland, everybody!

Hey there.  I'm sorry I haven't posted in a few weeks.  I entered "vacation mode" and stepped away from blogging while I attempted to stop the holidays from Falcon Punching my wallet.  lol  Anyways, 2013 is now in the books and in the past.  2014 is a week old and is already looking promising.  Here's what I have in store for you guys.

First off, we brought the Get a Life Podcast back.  It was on hiatus for a bit and was on a 3 week vacation these past three week but fear not dear Metal Maniacs (Metallman fans... maybe?  lol  the fan name is still a work in progress)!  We have 2 guests lined up to join us in the coming weeks.  Australian indie developer, Witch Beam, Co-Creator Santana Mishra will join us to disuss the Xbox One Parity Clause and Witch Beams' latest game, Assault Android Cactus, being released on PC.  We also have the beautiful, talented, and self proclaimed geek, actress Jacqui Holland, lined up to have a chat about her up coming films, her production company, MindFuc Films, and just generally geeking out over horror films and pop culture!

Top Reasons Why Books Make a Great Gift

Hey there. Still looking for that last minute gift?  You can get all kind of small trinkets that will fit comfortably inside of a stocking but the problem with that is that they are small, impersonal items that your young ones will forget as soon as they receive them.  Why not put their imagination to work!  Give them a book!

"Metallman, you are a fool!  I don't want to read!  I want to play video games!"

I hear ya, friend.  But books can be just as awesome of games.  Books can be just as intense as an action packed FPS, they can be just as intriguing as a compelling RPG, and they can be just as terrifying as a survival horror game.  I, for one, love to read and I wouldn't mind receiving a good book under the christmas tree!  Still not convinced?  No problem, check out the infographic below for a few reasons why books make a great gift!
