Tera teaser does high fantasy and looks awesome

September 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Tera – actually, I think we’re supposed to call it TERA – looks pretty cool. It’s another combat-centric MMORPG. However, this one is from the heavy hitting Frogster and promises to have a political system that let players experience the MMO community in a new way. It’s just speculation but I wonder how far they’ll […]

Heads up: Final Fantasy XIII-3 is probably on its way

September 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

What did you make of Final Fantasy XIII? Did it satisfy your Final Fantasy itch? I’m still looking for Square Enix to follow on Final Fantasy VII but I played Final Fantasy XIII for a bit. I’m still wrestling with the news that they’re making a sequel; early next year we should get Final Fantasy […]

The Scottish schmuck Grant Morrison denys God for Superman

September 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Like the post title? Don’t get me wrong – the real schmuck is the one hurling insults around; not Morrison. There’s a panel in Action Comics #1, the new one, that’s upset some people who like to project their religious views on to other people. While protecting their views, calling Grant Morrison a Scottish schmuck, […]

Scotland Loves Anime 2011 Line-Up

September 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I love Scotland Loves Anime. It’s the single best way I have of watching animme on the big screen and watching anime before it comes out on DVD. It’s just a shame that legal streaming/online access is still far too hard – surely it would solve the distrubution challenge faced by the animation studios. We’ve […]

Bioshock: Rapture review

September 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

No, you’ve not missed out on a Bioshock game. Bioshock: Rapture is a book. It’s a prequel from Titan Books and author John Shirley and is an engaging tale of the rise and fall of Andrew Ryan’s empire. I’ve spent hours in front of Bioshock. Never actually played it myself, though, it was always one […]

Doctor Who and the Wibbly Capella

September 9, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

All credit to Dan Rider for this impressive capella. By all credit I am, of course, not including the homemade fez. Although fezzes are cool I couldn’t put help his was a roll of paper. This is the wibbly capella as it starts off all timey-wimey. In fact, aren’t all solo capellas a little bit […]

Making a Fallout Pip-boy out of an Android Phone

September 6, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This Pip-boy is pretty cool. It’s pretty advanced – well; it does plenty. It may not do everything but it sure does a lot for a Pip-Boy 3000. I think the most cool aspect of this design is that it makes use of an HTC Desire HD. That’s a good use of Android tech. Could […]

LEGO Predator

September 6, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Lego engineer Shawn Synder has a history of building great Predator sculptures so do check out the full collection. The image below shows his latest work and I think it looks fantastic. I don’t know the Lego bricks he used for the tendrils but it’s hard to imagine how he could have done better!
