Naruto causes OCD? Photographic evidence

February 26, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Once again the mighty Reddit must be thanked. This photograph comes from Uniqlo who I’ve seen described as “Japan’s Gap” but that’s mean because Uniqlo does cool things and Gap’s Gap. I wonder just how badly the employee suffered from OCD to arrange this t-shirt pile in the first place and also maintain it as […]

Fable III: Coin Golf trailer

February 26, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There is a second Fable III game for Microsoft devices. That’s the Window Phone 7 Coin Golf game. Golf normally bores me to tears. What’s interesting about Fable’s Coin Golf is that it makes use of Windows Phone 7‘s ability to connect over the interwebs with Xbox Live. The incentive for messing around with this […]

James Corden returns to Doctor Who

February 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

James Corden will return to Doctor Who in the role of Craig Owens. The Owens character was last seen in “The Lodger” episode where the Doctor played football and dealt with mysterious disappearances connected to the upstairs apartment. The BBC said that Craig Owens proved popular with TV audiences. Who would have thought it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNcG48rxbqI […]

It’s true! Ubisoft release adult spank and stripping game. We Dare

February 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I saw the video and thought it was a hoax. Then I noticed the video was on the actual Ubisoft YouTube channel. Then I noticed you can buy We Dare at Play. That’s the PS3 version and the Wii version. Here’s some of the text about the game from Play. And there’s more! You can […]

Gamer Girl t-shirts: Yes, they’re natural (d20 boobies)

February 24, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

Is there any harm in repeating a good joke? I don’t think so. Especially if there’s money to be made. That said, I bet whoever came up with this concept first is less than pleased there’s so many copycats. Ladies and gents (and others) I present you with a series of entirely natural d20s! By […]

The Star Wars Infographic

February 24, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Star Wars has made a lot of money. No, it’s made a lot more money than that. Lots more. This infographic begins with the juicy bit – while trying to get his film made, George Lucas struck a brave deal with 20th Century Fox. In exchange for a poor salary he’d take home 40% of […]

Escher’s Waterfall built in real life

February 24, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Fancy mucking around with the laws of physics? I thought so. Let’s start with a system that makes water run up hill and power an infinite waterwheel. The result? Troll physics. Infinite power! Not bad, huh? All it too was some coloured water, some wood, glue, nails and magic power. What should he build next?

Impressive Star Wars galaxy map

February 23, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This map is worth checking out. It’s not often you get sci-fi maps and even less often do they attempt to chart out a whole galaxy. That whole maps are 2d and galaxies are 3d thing tends to be the problem. Back in 2009 Dark House and LucasFilms tackled this challenge for Star Wars: The […]
