It took them 36 months to complete the project which in my opinion resembles the interior of an Imperial Star Destroyer and not the Death Star.</p><p>The home theater has actually three rooms with one being the main room that contains the seats and the Stewart VeLux DeLux ST130 Screen. One of the other rooms contain the extensive media collection while the last contains the equipment to run the show.</p><blockquote><p>The main space in the theater is approximately 22 feet from the back wall to the screen. Features inside include three levels of seats, a stage for the screen, and Wertzâ€™s favorite feature, a fiber-optic starfield. (â€œItâ€™s kind of calming,â€? he says.) However, for most spectators, that might pale in comparison to the roomâ€™s special effects, which includes the Han Solo, a life-size C-3PO and Boba Fett.</p></blockquote><p><span

The first is connected to Star Wars. I know you like Star Wars. I always thought why the Imperium was that stupid to construct the Death Star the way they did. A defense shield that was guarded by nothing at all, just some silly stormtroopers. A planet shattering canon and a tiny hole that made the whole thing vulnerable.</p><p><a
target="_blank" title="Death Star Designer" href="http://www.deathstardesigner.com/">Death Star Designer</a> is your change to make it better. Create the meanest Death Star of them all for the Emperor. You receive lots of credits and have to make all the choices. Install Defense systems, firepower, naval facilities and much more. Just make sure you stay in the limit or the Emperor will not be pleased. Once you are done your design is reviewed and you will face criticism about all the design flaws of your Death Star. You may then redesign the Death Star or submit the design anyway.</p><p><span
id="more-993"></span>The second game is called <a
target="_blank" title="tower defense" href="http://www.jeannettevejarano.com/games/tower-defence.html">Tower Defense</a>. Buy and Upgrade Towers that attack the waves of monsters that try to storm your castle and kill your citizens. You receive money for every monster that your towers kill and you can use the money to build new towers or upgrade existing ones to make them stronger. Great game, lots of fun.</p><p>The second game was recommend by a veteran reader of my blog, Thinker. It is also a Tower Defense game, this time in the well known Starcraft universe. Instead of building towers you build structures known from the game to beat waves of enemies that try to destroy your hive. Yeah that&#8217;s right, you play the Zerg. A bit more complicated than the first Tower Defense game but still lots of fun.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ghacks.net/2006/12/09/some-games-for-the-evening/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>2</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
