Tom Ska is a YouTube wonder. This could be a LARP based off the Cats RPG. Okay; there are some problems with that; there is no Cats RPG that I’m aware off and the special effects here are rather better than most LARPS. However, if we move on from these problems – surely this is […]

What would it be like to work in The Witch King’s office? I think it would have some perks but I would worry about the tech savvy of The Nazgul. This is the challenge the 10th Nazgul, Frank, faces. He was brought in to help with the Windows Vista upgrade. Yeah. That’s pretty evil.

In fact, it was via Felicia Day’s Google+ stream that I was first made aware of this trailer. That was a few days ago. Minutes […]

Weebl: For Science, You Monster
It looks like they got some science on them! Let’s turn to Weebl and Bob to help us stay in the Portal zone. Did you know the turrets were in a band called Radio Head? Weebl’s in it too. Sure. There’s a band with a similar name but I’m not sure which one came first. […]
