Far Cry the Movie

Outta' sheer boredom, I decided to fire-up Neflix through the Marketplace, just to see what new movies were ultimately available to watch.

Well, immediately the film 'FAR CRY' caught my attention, so I decided to add this flick to my Instant Queue. After checking the credits, it said "Directed by Uwe Boll."

Naturally, I began laughing, mainly because of his association with many other "sub-par" video game to movie adaptations.

Even still, I've always been a big fan of anything 'FAR CRY', and love giving every gaming-esque' movie a chance, solely to see if it provides the integrity of the gaming franchise.

Seriously, I was pleasantly surprised, and defintiely found this to be one of the better video game films to date. I'm not joking either.

In fact, the movie had a very good cast, setting, plot, and enough suspensful action to keep you entertained for an hour and a half.

Even despite not being a Triple AAA Hollywood action flick, it still felt darn near close - and is much better than most B-Movies you'll watch.

Whatever the case may be, I just wanted to recommend this movie to all gaming lovers out there, who might also have a subscription to Netflix.

Heck, I had always heard that a silver-screen adaptation of 'FAR CRY' was in the works, but didn't even realize it was done until firing-up Netflix tonight.

Giant Microbes @ 1up Collectibles


What would the Chicken Pox virus look like if we magnified it a million times?? A lot cuter than most would think!

Giantmicrobes (just like their microscopic counterparts) are taking the world by storm. They've escaped from under the microscope and climbed out of their Petri dishes to Giant Microbesintroduce themselves, so we can get to know them and yes, perhaps even love them.

Throw away your cuddly teddy bears and fluffy stuffed puppies – wouldn't you rather cuddle with Cimex Lectularius? Every Giantmicrobe comes complete with a bio on its biology, explaining its features and functions!

Meet some of the most important members of your body – the Brain Cell (Neuron), White Blood Cell and Red Blood Cell. And finally meet some of the villainous viruses that are just waiting to meet you – there's the Common Cold, The Flu, Kissing Disease (or Epstein-Barr Virus) and MRSA.

Giant MicrobesGiantmicrobes are a fantastic way to teach children (and adults) more about their body, life and the universe! They're also just so gosh-darn huggable and perfect for the person in your life who's just that little bit left of centre (in other words, everyone!).

Why not donate them to a school! Teach your nieces and nephews something in a fun way! They're the perfect graduation gift for your resident med student or science geek.

Giantmicrobes - they are seriously catching! The only symptom is a smile you just can't wipe off your face and the only cure is to order yours now!
