I tried the Bioshock demo over the weekend and I have to say that I’m quite impressed with the look of the game. I’ve been pretty excited for this one and I must say that it looks as though I won’t be disappointed. I just wish I had little better graphics card than my aging [...]

And this one is the sexiest so far, at least from this angle. engadget has the goods on this one; looks like it’s got its own proprietary wireless signal, so they’re thinking there will be no lag. Also, they’ve got a couple of variants, one straight optical, and one laser. The optical mouse they’re aiming at FPS [...]
New Contender in the Mouse Debates
Published by August 23rd, 2007 in Gadgets, Games and Hardware. 0 CommentsRudeboy and I have different taste in mice, but we share one thing: a fancy mouse won’t buy you any extra frags. Now, granted, you’re not going to get a lot of kills if you’re playing with your laptop’s trackpad or little eraser-thingy pointer. But I’ve almost always been happy with an ancient two-button optical [...]
Supurb! Stupendous! Fantasmastical! Just a few of the words I could think of to describe Star Wars – The Musical. Why didn’t Lucas think of this? That opening sequence KILLS ME!!! “Red 5 standing byyyyyyyy!”
Well, I cranked up the BioShock demo last night. It played pretty well with my system, in spite of the fact that I didn’t bother trying to tweak and turn things off. The framerate was too low, but I wanted a feel for what a DX9 card would present. My current rig has a Core [...]
Tired of using your lame attempt at a car badge in Mario Kart DS? Well… me too. Good thing there’s a site like DSIcons.com to assist those of us who are less apt at creating anything other than a pixel blob in the icon editor. As the picture to the right shows, the instructions are [...]
For all those of you who were wondering when Hollywood would get around to making a live action Voltron movie… wonder no longer. TmZ reports that a Voltron movie is in the works and although it will most likely be crap, it will be fun to see those tenacious kids ride their robotic lions to [...]
These aren’t the pants you’re looking for.
Published by August 19th, 2007 in Geek Fun and Random. 0 CommentsThis list is kinda old, but I just stumbled on it again today and couldn’t help but laugh all the way though it. For those of you not familiar with this list, the basic idea is that many lines in Star Wars are much funnier if you replace some word within the line with the [...]
There are a few things about Canadians that make them just a little different than those of us to their direct south. There’s socialized healthcare, the welcoming attitude they seem to have for those of a more… “French” nature as well as those fantastic mounted police just to name a few. But one thing you [...]
I don’t really have a problem with movies based on games. I just have an issue with movies based on games that totally blow. Unfortunately, that one qualification means that I loathe most game movies. I admit that there have been a couple over the years that I’ve enjoyed (I won’t mention which ones to [...]
