| NCAA Football 2013... What? | The new CousinFizz.com website is up, it is still being worked on as I transfer info. A good part is already there except the 'knife trick'. That info is old and most likely dead but I may leave it up for a while longer. It's off to bigger things as they say as I get into new gaming and some retro gaming as well and other stuff. So I'll see you over there and I'll be here too as the transfer goes on. I'll most likely keep this site as well but I will be updating it as we go along. Say hello if you wish and take care, the Fizz is out there! <v> It looks like with NCAA College Spring Football scrimmages comes the new game NCAA Football 2013 with the New Cover! I've watched alot of video on this one and I'm not sold on it yet but it looks at least interesting even though there are those out there that say it's ruined. I'm not sure about that either but hey the game is still in developement and will be for another two and a half months, so hang in there and check it out here and of course here! Look for the release July 10th. > This just in... HALO 4 out during the Holidays... HERE < I'm back after about 6 months now. The wife is doing better and I'm working on some new sites. The new Cousinfizz.com site is in the development stages and it's looking good. It will have several other areas as well from gaming to business opps to actually selling cell phones and services, etc., to a real blog. And lots of general info as well. (cousinfizz's info page will be there too) It will also keep up-to-date news which will be good since I can't be here all the time, but that is changing as well. (yep, I'm going to be here and on twitter and facebook, go-figure!) Right now we (my web-master and I) are transfering data over to the new site from here so it won't be too much longer before it's up and running... anyway hang-in with me and we'll go on from here, also I'll be able to get real feedback from you out there and I'll be watching to see what you want to read. I look forward to your input... meanwhile I've been checking out the New 360 game SSX and if you can pick it up do so or at least rent it because it's worth it! Catch you later and I will be out there, or is that here? Ha... see you here and there! cool... the review on SSX is here! Also, if your tired of paying eBay fees and getting the RUN AROUND from paypal, like I am, you can go to this NEW auction site http://www.unisquare.com/ and get setup, I have. They only charge a general fee of 2% on the price of the item your selling, NO other fees!. And you also have the option to use Google check-out, which I'm using as well. So unless you're really big on eBay give it a go, I'm not their spokes person or anything like that I'm just passing the info along. And since I've joined the link just below here they are growing pretty well. It's interesting what they are doing too. Give it a try and get paid for what you're already doing on the internet, browsing, buying items and trying new programs and services, that's what I already do anyway. Let the advertisers pay you, why not? See you out there... Oh, If you want you can JOIN this for FREE.. Pre-Launch! (NOT a Scam!) HERE at WAZZUB! MAKE SOME MONEY! A bit silly if you ask me but Madden 12 will be released on Aug 30th. The thing I don't get is if you're going to buy the game there won't be any difference. I mean if people are waiting on it they most likely won't buy NCAA 12.. They are die-hard Madden fans and vice-versa so why I ask EA Sports? Why the change? It's NOT going to change anything! What can I say, it's looks like EA Sports is not only changing Madden's date but most if not all their sports games now have a NEW release date... BIG DEAL... trying to make more money I guess but again I don't see the changed dates selling any more games at all, people will just wait. My 2 cents worth... (oh, get the demo if you can, that will hold you over) Now if you will excuse me there's a Pre-Season double header tonight and I want to see how the real-deal is doing... (so glad the NFL made it this year) see you out there! Comic-con for this year starts today: 7/21/11... have fun! HERE... all about the comics and video games! And they're saying that the video games really have everyones attention this time around... can't wait to see what's up! Great stuff... And I've got better coverage on what's happening at Comic-con HERE!! With summer on the way things really slow down now although there are a few sports games coming out and of course Gears 3 right around the corner... have fun and I'll cya out there... Want a good round-up for everything that happened at E3 this year? Well this is the best I found out there,,, enjoy and good gaming! HERE Wow, E3 is here June 7th! And to think I was there when it was in Atlanta, that seems so lomg ago... I'm glad it's still around. I'll keep you informed as to what the lastest info is... already news is coming out that the PS4 has been in development for a while and will be here in 2014 or 2015... cya... http://www.e3expo.com/home/ __________________________________________________________________ After 5 XBox 360's I've gotten my hands on a 360 Jasper! And I'm glad I have. The system you'll notice right away is that it's quiet! And hopefully for the long haul it will hold up. The 3RROD problem hopefully is a thing of the past. It's in the new Arcade package and comes with a game and an Arcade Disc as well as having HDMI and a wireless controller and 256k of memory onboard... So Xbox 360 fans (like me) Unite! Hopefully we can game for a good long time! Check to see the difference HERE. And what to look for when it comes to the system package HERE. I've seen the Arcade package as low as $169 these past few days so look around! See you later and happy gaming everyone! Fizz Also, I've gone ahead and bought a 'Magic Jack'... For those of you out there that don't know what that is, it's just Voice Over your IP or internet. Vonage gets something like $25 for it a month but, all I spent was $55 and that includes an $11, 2 year warranty from 'Radio Shack' where if you have any problems whatsover they will give you another Jack on the spot no questions asked. And the other, it includes the fist years service of $20. Sweet deal. The problems are varied as well. Mine was dead when I got it and I exchanged it no problem. Then the new one wouldn't recieve or make calls. The problem after trying different things was you can't leave it in the computer while rebooting. After you reboot then reinstall it and it comes right up and 'Ready to Use'. You have to use their area code and number each time you call someone. You must remember that. Also, make sure you get the upgrade from the 'Fix' Tab just above the SEND button or it may not work at all. BUT for what it is and for what it does and for what it costs, it's great! Works like a charm and you can stay on as long as you like! And the sound is fine... One thing before getting one though. You might NOT want to buy one from the company itself because their customer service is lacking to say the least! (Hello Radio Shack) You'll get a number in any area code that you like and you're off and running. Now you know... _________________________________________________________________ You were wondering where I was? I was offline for a while tring to get things worked out with my internet provider and couldn't get it to work out at all... way to go Verizon! Another reason why I think that Verizon is the worst ever! There just isn't any customer service whatsoever. To bad too because they do have a good HD service, they won't however tell you you need to rewire your house to get the best quality for what you need. In my case Dish Network came out to the house and found out that I had R-9 cable. Now this technology is over 15 years old and all I was having was problem after problem. (I wonder why? hmm) To say the least with the Dish Network setup now I have no problems at all. Hey Verizon, why sell a Ferrari without the tires? I don't understand that logic at all! I was never given an option with them and found out later they wanted $59 a TV for the recable. But with the Dish Network it was FREE... So now I'm on Road Runner and Dish and am quite happy. So here we go I got some goodies for you. Check this out but watch and read! http://www.swoopo.com now it looks good but check out this site... http://technologizer.com it doesn't seem to be a scam BUT it does in the long run unless you're one of the lucky ones....

As long as the game was made for your particular system of course. This site is cool too! http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-36fr-71-99-49-en.html

DO YOU HAVE A PS2 DISC READ ERROR?? NOT ANY MORE!! PlayStation 2 Disc Read Error Fix
About a month ago, I noticed that my aging PS2 would no longer read DVD video and audio CD discs. I tried using a laser-lens cleaning disc as well as upgrading my DVD software, but my PS2 continued to report the dreaded "disc read error." With PS2 repair jobs costing about as much as a new unit, I was determined to find a (hopefully free) fix. After scouring countless online sources and finding little useful information, I came across a message board posting that suggested the problem may be related to an internal adjustment gone awry. The result is that the disc read errors (DREs) are gone, and my PS2 is now as snappy as the day I pulled it out of its pretty blue box. If a once-working PS2 has suddenly developed a case of the DREs, there is a good chance it can be fixed. Achtung baby! Disclaimer: While I have tried to make this guide as accurate and concise as possible, I take no responsibility for any damage you may cause. In addition, any alterations to your PS2 may void your warranty. Proceed at your own risk. What you need... Before attempting the fix described below, read through this guide completely in order to familiarize yourself with the steps involved. Once that is done, gather the following items. Standard Phillips screwdriver Optional cleaning tools. PS2 Tip No. 1: It's best to use a vacuum for cleaning the dust from electronic devices. Wiping the surface or dusting with compressed air may force contaminants inside of the device, making things worse.
Before you do anything, disconnect the PS2's power and video connections. On the bottom of the PS2 are 10 square-shaped screw covers. Four of these double as rubber feet for the PS2 (when the device is laying flat.) Remove these covers to access and remove the screws. Some of the screws will be longer/shorter than the others so keep track of what goes where.
Once you've removed the screws, it's time to break the seal and completely void whatever warranty you may have had. Seriously, there is a "warranty seal" sticker near the PS2's power connector that must be removed in order to gain entrance to the innards of the beast. With the screws removed and the warranty sticker "void," gently turn the PS2 right side up. Carefully remove the top cover by lifting the back edge and pulling it toward the front of the unit until it clears the controller jacks as well as the front of the disc tray. You'll notice a metallic ribbon or white wires (depending on your PS2's age) connecting the main base to the eject/play buttons on the top cover. Remove the tape that normally holds this wire in place and set the top cover off to the side. Don't try to disconnect the ribbon/wires. There should be enough slack for the cover to lie off to the side. Before moving on to the disc tray cover, now is a good time to blow out the dust that has collected around the fan and main circuit board. A can of compressed air will do the job nicely.
PS2 vertically looks cool, but it seems to cause more problems than it's worth.With the PS2 splayed open, the disc tray cover removed, and the unit plugged in, eject the disc tray. Toward the back of the PS2, behind the laser, is a white gear about 0.75-inches in diameter. This gear adjusts the distance between the disc surface and the laser's eye. It's also the key to fixing a PS2 that frequently suffers from disc read errors (DREs.) On the left side of the white gear will be a notched metal tab or a smaller brass-colored gear. Use a felt-tip pen to mark the white gear at the point it contacts the tab/smaller gear. This provides a reference point for the original position of the gear as we prepare to make our adjustment(s). Now would be a good time to gently clean the laser's eye using a cotton swab dampened with a bit of rubbing alcohol. Adjusting the gear position in order to fix DREs involves the following steps.Turn the white gear a notch or two (clockwise or counterclockwise) If any of the disc types fail to be read follow these steps.
If your PS2 doubles as your primary DVD player, Sony's remote/software is worth the $15 to $20. Unfortunately, it requires a sacrifice of just over 2MB on a memory card in order to store the update. I hope this helps... take care now. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> |
