The 12 Masks of Halloween: #11 Rorschach
We’re not worthy. We are dirty scum, sinners and pathetic worms who pollute the cities. If that’s not you then perhaps you’re one of the good guys; perhaps you’re Rorschach. The iconic “anti-hero” of the Watchman was hugely popular in geek culture long before the movie. This Halloween even the jocks will get the reference […]
Ar Tonelico 3 trailer complete with funky music
It takes a while for this Ar Tonelico 3 trailer to get going – although it’s well worth the wait when it does – however the impressive music kicks in straight away so make sure you’ve speakers on. In many ways I get Final Fantasy vibes from this game but I’d accept its pretty hard […]
Left 4 Dead 2 boycott – the mod battle
When Valve announced Left 4 Dead 2 – amazingly – not everyone was happy. There was one group of fans who thought that it was “too soon”. They were still playing Left 4 Dead and didn’t fancy the online gamers being split between the two titles. They wanted more additions to Left 4 Dead. Whereas […]
Dragon Ball: Raging Blast looks surprisingly good
Don’t hate me for saying this… but the forthcoming Dragon Ball: Raging Blast looks surprisingly good. Wait! Let me defend that comment. What this trailer shows is a beat ’em up that makes use of a wide battle area; a city, a plane, etc. The combatants fly around, smash into things and cover far more […]
Tchaikovsky’s 1812 overture played by 1000 mobiles and 2000 text alerts
This is an ad for Vodafone New Zealand. It features 1000 mobile phones with their ring tunes carefully selected and synchronised to play the Tchaikovsky’s 1812 overture. Of course; it would equally be possible to take a single mobile with an MP3 ringtone of the 1812 overture but that wouldn’t be so cool.
Pretending to be an elf
Thanks to a post from Hakuro over at NKDS and a useful post about painting and gaming I’ve stumbled across a D&D ad I’ve never seen before. This cheeky poster may have been come in the States but this Scottish hermit hasn’t seen it before and wanted to share. The text reads; If you’re going […]
The Wolfman trailer
This is the second trailer from The Wolfman. It’s diriected by Joe Johnston, that’s the chap who did Jurassic Park III, and stars Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, Emily Blunt and Hugo Weaving none of whom need any further introdution. The lucky Americans wil lget this early in February next year and hopefully it’ll pop […]
Amazing new Left 4 Dead 2 trailer
This gory beauty is nearly 3 minutes in length. It’s not just the graphics and the new types of infected that this video hints at but also the story and the character’s personality. Unlike Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2 is a linear adventure rather than four independant shorts. If you ask me the […]
AD: HD trailer for 9
This ad from Universal makes use of Microsoft tech in order to stream some HD 9 goodness in advance of the movie release. The animation’s not due out in the UK until Christmas or thereabouts.
