Just yesterday I was watching the Rides episode where they built a car for drifting and I was telling Nat how cool drifting is when today I read that the new Fast and the Furious will be based on drifting. Neither Vin Diesel (who co-starred in the first film, but not the second) nor Paul Walker (who co-starred in both) will appear in the new movie which is scheduled to begin filming this fall. [Link]
On a side note, the show Top Gear is currently showing on the Discovery Channel in the States. Hope they come to Showtime also. At the moment you can watch Top Gear every Sunday at 1PM on BBC.
A group of people in San Fransisco experimented in the idea of multiplayer gaming with strangers on the streets. They would for example take out their Sony PSP’s while waiting in line at the movies and start playing against each other hoping that someone else in line would see them and want to join in. Their experiment didn’t work out as planned since no one joined their games but the idea is cool though. I personally carry my PSP wherever I go and I usually have 2 games with me. It would be cool if while waiting in line at the bank I notice someone else with a PSP and we end up playing a multiplayer game together while we wait. Maybe once the PSP really starts becoming more popular here in Kuwait that would be possible, so far since the PSP came out I have only met like 2 other people who own PSP’s. [
