My Best Friend is a Wookiee
09/08/2010 12:32 PM
TweetDo you use Wookiee or Wookie? At first I thought the title “My Best Friend is a Wookiee” was an attempt to avoid a lawsuit and help Tony Pacitti write about his Star Wars fandom without the darkside of Lucas Films getting involved. Then I noticed wikipedia also uses the double-e spelling: Wookiee, so perhaps [...]

TweetThey said that even from an early age it was clear that Sauron was destined for greater and more evil things. Heh! This find comes to us via Buzzfeed. If you want to subscribe to an RSS digest of Buzz then I recommend mine! Get it here.

Support the RPG industry
09/07/2010 02:34 PM
TweetGoogle’s new Priority Inbox is digging up age old starred emails. It’s surfaced a campaign I tried to start in 2005 at GameWyrd. This was an anti-pirate campaign. A pro-RPG industry campaign. Back in 2005 – and today as well – I was upset at the number of authors who’d write a fantastic product for [...]

Midichlorian Rhapsody
09/07/2010 05:50 AM
TweetCan’t get enough of the sci-fi musicals we’ve been treating ourselves too? No? Good! Yes? Too bad! Stepping up to the microphone next are those tiny little creatures that many Star Wars fans like to pretend were never mentioned. That’s right: the midichlorians. They’ve been joined on the karaoke by the legendary Queen who have [...]

Error: Cuteness overflow
09/06/2010 04:16 PM
TweetWe first visited Spiritgreen and his designed with the D&D inspired Twenty O’clock t-shirt that reigned on Teefury for a day. Now we’ve got a second design; just a geek, over on woot (and thankfully for more than a day) with Error: Cuteness overflow. The editors choice badge you’ll see there means it featured on [...]

More SyFy brand work
09/06/2010 09:30 AM
TweetWhat do you think of the rebranding from the Sci-Fi channel to the SyFy channel? I hear some grumbles. To be honest, though, I hear more grumbles about the content (not Sci-Fi enough) than how well the rebranding was done. This might be because there are few sci-fi geeks in adland or it might because [...]

RoboCop the musical: Murphy, it’s you!
09/06/2010 04:48 AM
TweetThere’s nothing wrong with this recent trend for turning golden oldies into musicals. I think. Not so sure that “Murphy, it’s you!” is my favourite but here it is anyway. What do you think? Does the Murphy, it’s you ever reach the ear splitting heights you feared it would?

PlayStation Move advert isn’t naff
09/03/2010 04:18 AM
TweetI was lucky enough to have a go on the PlayStation Movie during the Edinburgh Interactive Festival. I wasn’t allowed to take any photos but I did get a feel for the Move device itself. It’s certainly more responsive than the Wii-mote. Not sure it’s as amazingly precise as some people claim but I didn’t [...]

Inflatable Bag Monsters: Must See Art
09/03/2010 04:04 AM
TweetThese are so cool. Is this New York? The subway vents are certainly one of my memories of New York – that and the steam that blows from tubes stuck in the ground. Steam is impressive. Monsters that appear from the trash are even better. I think Joshua Allen Harris’ deserves extra kudos for essentially [...]

Rocket Jump of legend
09/02/2010 03:22 AM
TweetThe rocket jump is a must watch movie. Once again we can see how knowledge of computer games – and the ability to find a rocket launcher when you really need one – is a likely lifesaver. This video is from the same team the real life aimbot and I begin to wonder whether they’re [...]
