TigerDirect Android App in the Android Store
TigerDirect’s got an Android App! In collaboration with a currently running TV commercial, a new “Tiger Hijinx” app for Android 2.2 and above is now available on Android Market.

Some of the audio samples are actually outtakes from making radio commercials – and not being able to say anything correctly, others are just, well, plain ridiculous. Fresh off the presses and into the Android Market for your downloading pleasure, feel free to scan the QR code to download your Tiger Hijinx Android App now!

Bioshock Infinite Set to Wow Players

September 4, 2011 Sr. Editor Lonny Paul No comments

Bioshock Infinite SS - Gameplay (credit: Irrational Games) Blockbuster video games are an increasingly challenging item to make – the complexity is insane to achieve what is coming out today – just like Bioshock Infinite – ready to get gamers wound up and into some of the most realistic gameplay, ongoing dialog and graphics anyone has ever seen.

The game is set in a distant time of America when things are a lot different. While there have been many challenges in getting the game together, it continues to progress although there is lots more work to do, according to the Wired article.

Levine, Draper and Baker are still deep in the recording process for BioShock Infinite, which 2K Games plans to release sometime in 2012 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.

“The bar has been raised,” Baker says. “Gamers expect a higher performance. You’ve got games now … that are bringing in writers [and] actual talent directors and they know they have to deliver a dramatic and cinematic performance.”

Duct tape and Paper Laptop only $250?

September 3, 2011 Sr. Editor Lonny Paul No comments

Logan: Campus Deal Pusher [TV Commercial 2011] People are sometimes just too gullible. Today on Gizmodo, a story discusses how a woman was approached by a man in a parking lot saying he had laptops, tablets and other products for incredibly low prices – they are in Fedex boxes. Only $250 for a laptop? Suuuuuuuuure! Well, the woman gets home and finds it’s only a ream of paper and some duct tape inside the FedEx box. So she calls the police. I mean did she think she was getting a deal that good without it being any type of stolen or ‘misplaced’ merchandise?

Well, here at TigerDirect you always know that the deals we have are what they say they are – even if you were to be on a college campus and Logan strolled up and offered you a great deal… trenchcoat and all – you can be sure it’d be a great deal and 100% legitimate. In fact, watch this commercial which has been running nationwide over the last month. continue reading…

NXZT H2 Classic Computer Case - Logan Video Cap
NZXT makes great computer cases. Logan loves cases that make things easy – like taking out front bay retainers, fans, hard drives and good wire management, in fact, without those things he will rarely look or talk about them. Today I saw this video was put up this morning and now I actually want to run out and buy this case today to upgrade from my current gigantic NZXT case.

To get the full details, watch the video and you can get the full details, but I’ll tell you what made this Classic H2 case from NZXT a must have by me:

8 hard drive bays (with easy access)
a case-top drive bay which allows you to pop a drive in and out. Amazing
the “wireless” case front fans
the magnetic fan cover
soundproofing foam integration

Keep reading to watch the video and see these great features close up! continue reading…
