Monsters: Doctor Who’s Silence and Buffy’s Hush [spoilers]

April 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

Hush, Buffy the Vampire Slayer

The BBC have released more Doctor Who pictures and in them, we finally get to see the Silence. All year we’ve been wondering about what “Silence Will Fall” might mean and now The Daily Fail, of all people has these pictures along with speculation Amy Pond will die. The red top does not cite any […]

Project Manhattan prequels Project London

April 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s been a while since we looked Project London but it’s worth keeping this indie film on your radar. As a reminder; this is a no budget, open source software using, fan backed production that shows every sign of being awesome. This week the Project London universe expanded and the franchise showed signs of what […]

Jedi sports: Lightsaber golf and lightsaber badminton

April 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Jedi sports franchise is growing. You might wonder what the knights of the old Republic get up to during the times between crisis or where they hide while the Sith rule. The answer is simple; they hide in plain sight in sporting competitons around the world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fst_Zbm_fu0

Space Marine: The Universe – Behind the Scenes

April 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’ve got to admit that Relic and THQ seem to have captured Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40,000 franchise. This behind the scenes trailer is full of developers saying they respect the “IP”. In order words, they respect the intellectual property owned by Games Workshop (a company famous for sending the IP lawyers in). You could argue […]

Everything is True

April 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Everything is True is a rather brave rather from EA and Funcom for The Secret World. It’s brave (not because it runs to the end without snagging) as it spends most of the three minutes showing us nothing. There’s some teaser clips from the game at the start but then we move on to the […]

Games Workshop’s rollercoaster ride

April 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

At the start of the year Geek Native blogged Games Workshop’s £2.5m dip. This was a surprise because the company had seemed to turn their finances around. The news also took a somewhat bizarre twist when Mark Wells, Games Workshop CEO, seemed to suggest that problems over Christmas were due to rookie staff. In order […]

Can you make a slingshot that fires machetes?

April 8, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Can you make a slingshot that fires machetes? Yes. Yes you can. Joerg Sprave, who has a whole blog about slingshots, rose to the challenge. He made a slingshot that can fire the heavy and rather sharp weapon. As you can imagine the slingshot is huge. Jorg hurt himself during the video. Don’t worry. You […]

Hellraiser in LEGO

April 8, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This Cenobite looks familiar. Could it he be Pinhead himself? Nah! Pinhead was made from flesh, bone, blood and horror… not lego. Right? Riiight? Thanks to Capnbottle for this clever construction!

Facebook wants your soul

April 7, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Take a minute to imagine what the very original Facebook might have looked like and what purpose it would serve. Some say the original Facebook was bound from human flesh, forged into an inhuman face that whispers dark secrets and promises of power. 9Gag.
