Well, the game was leaked on to torrent sites and has been confirmed to work – but you idiots couldn’t stop there, eh? Had to jump into the online play? Well that was dumb. You do know that all of your Live stats are recorded?

So not only does Microsoft know you have a pirated version of the game, they know your Xbox 360 is modded to play it! Good luck with that one. You’re about to meet Mr. Ban-hammer, me thinks.

-GTA IV Leak. . .

For those of you that don’t spend a lot of time in internet land (or lack common sense), this was basically confirmation that the content was in fact authentic.

Okay, like everyone I played Nintendo followed by the SNES when I was younger, but not my own – I had a Sega Genesis (Masterdrive). Sonic was my Mario but he’s been sucking it up at the next-gen scene. Have you seen Sonic Galaxies yet? Didn’t think so.

What’s exciting about this? They decided to do a scroller, the way Sonic’s meant to be played. But it’s not all about speed, it’s all about timing. This is like a revamped Sonic game of old, and even the music is more in tune with how the older games sounded. I’m pretty pumped to see where this game might go. Some classic gameplay with some new tricks in the graphics and physics department? Yeah. This could be good.

It’s not all sins, tragedies, & martyrdom with breakfast nails.

The lyrics are broader in depth than A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out and are accompanied by a variety of instruments, from strings to horns and of course some more piano.

I’m not sure that the album will thrill everyone who loved the bands first effort but it’s a great album that may in fact substantiate their mainstream push. It’s nice to be over the shotgun wedding scene.

Check out my favorite, The Green Gentlemen, and the rest of Pretty. Odd. on MTV’s Leak.

And please keep in mind that I ripped the new single off the radio stream, but it’s ripped at 160 KBPS. It’s the best quality I’ve seen online thus far.

Also, if you’re a fan of blink-182 and AvA, this might interested you.

(Note: The Plus 44 uploads are now officially linked to my server from this post. All links should lead to http://lucasj.net/plus44/ and the appropriate file name.)

EDIT: Two apologies. First being that my FTP access is locked for some reason today. Typically I love my host, but today isn’t one of those days. As such, the file was uploaded to another host until I can resolve that. The other issue is, there’s a very short clip about Today’s Catch. It’s the radio station’s daily special and I left it in. The song is, so far as I’ve heard, the best quality uploaded on the net so far. Enjoy!
