GOD OF WAR III

God of War III has hit the stores and is proving to the masses that it's not just another crappy sequal to one of video games epic titles. This may be the final chapter of the game where Kratos frees himself from his slavery to the Gods. Release of this game is only available exclusively to PS3 owners so if you don't have one you just lost the chance to play probably one of the most epic games of 2010.

Toyota's Problems continue on the San Diego Freeway

Toyota's problems with their faulty products seem to be getting more extreme. A man lost control of his Prius on the San Diego FWY because his acceleration got stuck. You might ask why hasn't he taken his car in to the dealer for recall? Well he did and the dealer turned him down saying his model wasn't on the list. WHAT!? I hope that guy was busy or something because that's ridiculous. Hopefully Toyota will fix their problem before they loose all of their faith in the American Car market.
