The 2010 Christmas special from the Matt Smith Doctor is called “A Christmas Carol”. As part of Children in Need 2010 the BBC has aired a special preview. Worth a Geek Native peek too. What do you think? over on YouTube there’s quite a lot of negative comments… but that’s YouTube and negative comments are […]

The latest Ultramarines clip
HeyGuys has an exclusive clip from Martyn Pick’s Ultramarines animation. This is the first ever official Warhammer 40,000 movie. You can buy it now as a two-disc special edition from Ultramarines The Move but it is expected to have some sort of cinema release later next year. I’m in two mines about the movie. The […]
Gaikai launches
Dave Perry‘s Gaikai could be very big. It’s one of the few companies that are looking to bring gaming to the cloud. Why pay for an expensive console, a suped up computer or even why pass for expensive spinny discs when you could use a mundane machine to tap into Gaikai’s fat servers and play […]
Getting sweaty with Melinda Messenger
It’s a safe bet to assume that I’m not a sports head (or spead, as I call them). However, sports games have been good to the computer game industry – they’ve lured in speads, cashed their money and helped gaming become mainstream. It’s also a set bet that EA will be pushing EA Sports Active […]
Use your Kinect for 3D films
I’ve seen some Microsoft provided demos of the Kinect’s quasi-3D abilities and they’re all pretty cool. I think video might be just as cool. It’s simple but it’s also very effective. It also runs off hacked Kinect drivers and so the h4xx0r5 will be happy. What do you think? Pretty cool? The Kinect could also […]
Zombigotchi: Cute zombie pet for iPhone/iPad
It seems that there might be some unlife in the virtual pet craze yet. Fed up of cute kittens and baby dragons that cost you gold coins rather than earn them? Why not consider your very own cute pet zombe that you can pet, train, feed and call George? Well. Actually, I’m not sure about […]
Hentai Harry Potter euphemisms puns
“If you open up your chamber of secrets…” Oh dear. I suspect some searchers will be coming to this post only to be disappointed. The clue was in the words “euphemisms” and “puns” (although, really, there’s only one of each). Hey, I could have added the word “picture” to the title but that would have […]
Caprica’s Alessandra Torresani as slave Leia
I rather liked Caprica. It wasn’t the fastest paced show and I suspect, a bit like Dollhouse, that was part of the problem – but it was intelligent and engaging. Without a doubt Alessandra Torresani has made a name for herself among geeks. She’s web credible. Torresani stars in Kevin Pereira‘s Capirca. His goal? To […]
To tha Face: Pro gamer or not?
Geek Native is a bit lait with “To tha Face” which came out at Halloween. It’s a gamer pop track. The concept seems to be that gamers can get chicks – aka girls. At the start our wannabe hero sets down his console and decides to party. Towards the end of the video he’s lured […]
Who could play Jessica Rabbit? Heidi Klum
It seems to be that super models tend to be over rated. I think it’s because they’re so mainstream. I also think this is why there are a number of really good looking and intellligent women making a serious play/business move into the geek space. However, sometimes a mainstream/world famous model does something that earns […]
