Post-holiday Video Game System Wonderland

With the Christmas rush behind us, Metro Pawn & Gun is teaming with fantastic deals. Video game consoles are a very popular gift during the holiday season. It seems as though one can barely keep up with the newest iteration of the Xbox or Playstation systems, and even variations within each product line. That original, black Xbox One seems dull when compared to the limited edition Halo 5: Guardians bundle. From the metallic blue accents and military insignias to the custom sound effects, this is dedicated to Halo fans, featuring content otherwise unavailable along with a custom controller and various other extras. But for those of us that may not be die-hard Halo aficionados, a stock Xbox One that came into our shop the day after Christmas may do just fine – especially considering the savings that are sure to be realized.

Getting Personal, Electronically Speaking

In 1978, Sony released a portable audio cassette player named the Walkman, which forever changed music listening habits by allowing people to bring music with them and listen to it through lightweight headphones.  By the late 1990s, the cassette-based Walkman started being phased out in favor of emerging digital technologies such as CD, Digital Audio Tape and MiniDisc. Evolution eventually brought us to the age of the iPod, a line of portable media players and multi-purpose pocket computers designed and marketed by Apple Inc. The first of these was released on October 23, 2001, and the rest is history.
