Turns out that Cave Johnson is willing to admit that there is a reproducible human error problem with the portal device. It’s all due to the way humans tend to land badly, especially from great heights, and the resulting damage that can occur to the portal generator. Needless to say, in order to protect the […]

Doctor Who coffin: To burry a Timelord
Here’s an odd one. Creative Coffins do as their name suggests – they make creative (and eco) coffins. One of their creations just happens to have a Doctor Who theme. Whereas you might be expecting a TARDIS (and does ‘bigger on the inside’ has a new meaning when it comes to the afterlife….) there’s a […]
Cthulhu snowglobe
This idea strikes me as both simple but effective. It’s a little tragic too because no matter how many earthquakes you cause – Cthulhu will never be able to emerge from R’lyeh. No, he’s trapped in this mighty “snowglobe” dome, only able to … wait, the actual product description over at Big Bad Toy Store […]
Risen 2: Dark Waters
Risen 2 is a single-player fantasy RPG. It’s the sequel to Risen produced by Piranha Bytes over in Germany. Dark Waters is set several years after Risen, the titans have been causing chaos and pushing mankind to the brink of existence. We have monsters rising from the depth of the ocean (see what they did […]
R.A. Salvatore’s Kingdoms of Amular trailer
R.A. Salvatore is just one of the famous names associated with the secret once known as “Project Mercury”. We’re actually talking about Kingdoms: of Amalur: Reckoning and both Spawn‘s Todd McFarlane and Morrowind & Oblivion’s Ken Rolston are also involved. This is an open world RPG. In fact, it’s a world created be R.A. Salvatore, […]
Dead Rising 2: Off the Record – erotica and zombies?
Dead Rising was one of the original zombie hits. Since Geek Native is a slave to Left 4 Dead (L4D1, at least) we like to look at other possible zombie hits. There’s that. There’s also the fact the official fact sheet from Capcom for Dead Rising talks about awarding players with Prestige Points for photographs […]
The Robot Book by Thomas Jackson
Thomas Jackson is a photographer of talent and the Robot Book is a book made from metal, wood and electronic components. It’s a work of art. It’s not often we feature works of art here at Geek Native but the Robot Book clearly qualifies as worthy!
The Gadget Show Live 2011 review
I say this is a review of The Gadget Show Live in 2011 but be informed that this is the same Gadget Show Live that Jason Bradbury appears, on stage, in a mankini. Everything else seems to pale in significance! First off; there are two parts to The Gadget Show Live out in the National […]
Impressive animatronics
These animatronic creations are really impressive. They were created by John Nolan and I’m pretty sure you’ll recognise some favourite films and some adverts – even if all you get shown are the metal skeletal frames. Well worth a watch.
Magic the Gathering on the iPhone
When I say “Magic the Gathering on the iPhone” I’m not talking about an M:tG game. Rather, I’m talking about using a deck worth of old iPhones (perhaps some iPod Touch devices in there too) as a substitute for cards. I think these pictures explain the concept better than I can. What do you think? […]
