Your very own Shub-Niggurath pushie

November 21, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Does your live need some shub-niggurath care and attention? I bet it does. Most people don’t enough enough shub-niggurath in their lives. In fact, many people are no sight of The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young in their daily routine. It’s a shame. Thankfully, Etsy and Xmas With Krampus has the […]

How do you screen grab from a Xbox 360?

November 21, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Are you a PC gamer or a console gamer? My choice of platform is strongly connected to the type of game. However, in one aspect PC games have the advantage – they’re far easier to take screen grabs from. If you’re trying to review a game then your life is made much easier if you […]

Before Rabbids – the Rayman Origins

November 21, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

No question; the Rabbids were one of Wii’s most important successes. They had crazy, cute and fun party games that were easy to pick up, laugh at and either put down when the beer ran out or get obsessed by a play all night. That’s gaming perfection. The Rabbids, though, are a spin-off. They came […]

Harry Potter sex song: Walk of Shame

November 21, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Back during Pottermania there was a small avalanche of fan-made Harry musicals. One of which was We R Slytherins. It was based off a Ke$ha song and in addition to the clever tune had some pretty impressive graphics. It’s half a year later and the two lead singers are back with a new Harry Potter song. This […]

Skyrim LEGO god or cheating backsturd?

November 20, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I can’t decide whether this is fair play or cheating. After all; no software hacking was involved. Now, bare with me as I’m yet to get my hands on Skyrim so I might slip on the details but the premise is this – the more you practise your healing, the better you get at it. […]

The Darkest Hour featurette

November 20, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Darkest Hour is a soon to be released sci-fi set in Moscow following a group of American teens in the aftermath of an alien invasion. These are sneaky aliens and the featurette probably doesn’t give away any more than a trailer would but it does lift the lid on some of the surprises. The […]

Blood on the Game Dice

November 20, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

How functional is your gaming group? Wait. Don’t be harsh. I don’t think that’s an oxymoron – there’s too many words, for a start. The truth is that some gaming groups get along well, some are chaotic but generally line up but then there are some that are so fractional it’s amazing any gaming goes […]

Are you any good at spotting the green screen?

November 20, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Sometimes when you watch a movie or a TV series it seems pretty easy to spot the green screen. Sometimes it’s because the background is dodgy. Sometimes you can pick up a faint halo around the actors. This video might challenge your perceptions of the green screen (or blue; depending on the situation). In fact, […]

Lindsey Stirling twirling her way through a Zelda Medley

November 19, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 3 Comments

There’s a lot of praise to be heaped on this video. It’s well sort. It makes use of some great locations. They push the boat out with some horse riding and some great use of fire. It’s also true that Lindsey can cleary dance. She plays that violin very well. That said there’s something about […]
