When it comes to game consoles, there are a lot of options to choose from. The most popular consoles, though, are the Xbox, Xbox 360,The DS, The GBA (game boy advance), PlayStation 1,2,&3, The PSP, The Wii, and, of course, the computer. The Xbox & Xbox 360 both have very good graphics and things, with thrilling action games such as the Halo or the Call of Duty games too. Both these consoles come with Xbox live, an online multiplayer service where you can play against other people or you can even download demo games and music ( you have to buy most of them). Another cool feature is that you can transfer songs from your PC to your Xbox and then you can play your songs while you play a game.
The three most popular Nintendo consoles - the Wii, the DS, and the game boy advance are probably the most popular. The graphics are okay and the games freeze up at times, but the games are loads of fun and all the consoles are very cheap compared to all the others. The DS has a lot of fun games including Avatar: Burning Earth and Mario kart, too.
PlayStations are AWESOME! The only bad thing about Playstations is their price - the Ps3 costs about $400! The Ps3 is a great console, though - the graphics and detail of it's games are amazing! It's loaded with tons of features, including a web browser, an online multiplayer thing that's like Xbox live except better, an online download center where you can download games, themes, videos and more, an music player, and tons more! The PlayStation 2 is a great console and it's games are very similar to the Xbox's. Some games I recommend are the Sims games , Rock band and Lego Indidana Jones: The Original Adventures.
Robots
There are many robots in this world , but none of them are as awesome as the ones in these videos - they range from robotic teachers to Elvises! Take a look at these videos:
The Verizon Hub - It's not your average phone!
The Verizon Hub is definitively not your average home phone - first of all, it's got an awesome touchscreen, which you can use to check the weather, find directions, look up people in the online yellow pages, call people (of course), and quite a bit more. You can watch the news, find the nearest coffee shop, send texts, and even buy movie tickets. It is a little pricey though - it costs about $200 with a 2 year phone contract. It's a great phone!

Game Review: Simcity
SimCity 4 is the awesomest computer game ever - it's just so AWESOME! In SimCity you get to create your own virtual city - you get to build parks, houses, beaches, roads, seaports, railroads, bridges, fire stations and pretty much everything else a city can have! Once you build your city, you get to drive cars, trains, ships, planes and other vehicles across your city in the U-Drive It mode. Sometimes, you can go on special missions to get money or unlock new buildings. In these missions, you usually drive a certain vehicle to certain targets across the city- for example, on the "Sick Bus Driver" mission, you drive a bus to certain bus stops around your city. Once you complete the mission you unlock a convention center and your mayor rating gets raised. But that's not all - you can cause destruction and doom in your city with the destruction tool! With it you can send a tornado spinning through your city, or you can make a UFO blast the city to bits, a volcano rise in the center of town, or even make a giant robot come stomping through your precious city! As I said, it's an AWESOME game!
You can get SimCity 4 for both mac and PC, and a simpler version for the iPhone/iPod.
