Over at AnimeVoice, Gia Manry has found the opening sequence to the MMORPG version of the Tower of Druaga.

Doctor Who no longer; Christopher Eccleston is John Lennon
If you hit Google for [Christopher Eccleston] today you’ll get a wash of Doctor Who results. He is most well known for his role as the 9th Doctor. This is despite his highly praised role in geek hit Heroes. Let’s not mention neither Cobra Commander nor The Dark is Rising. In a new biopic for […]
The cutest weird couple found in an incubator
This rather memorable picture comes to us from yet another Russian blog (unlinked because the site was taken down) that has a habit of posting great finds while failing to credit the photographer in any way. If you know who should be thanked for this pic – let us know! Despite the lack of credits, […]

Wii Sniper Rifle ships next week
Do we need a sniper rifle for Wii games? Hardware manufacturer CTA thinks so. Having already produced a £25 “Sure Shot Rifle” CTA have presumably tested the market and seen the need. Although it’s slightly odd that the gaming accessory is coming out on the wrong side of Christmas. The sniper rifle is currently only […]
Mortal Kombat lightening muscial with zeusaphones
This video did two things. One – it taught me a new word: Zeusaphones. Two – it reminded me of the Mortal Kombat techno theme tune. Actually, this is the Mortal Kombat theme tune and it’s being created by the lightening generating zeusaphones. Now there’s a talent I didn’t know I didn’t have.
