Jack the Giant Killer trailer

December 16, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Jack the Giant Killer trailer looks impressive. This is a story of an ancient war; one between our world and one of horrible giants. Jack, a farmhand, gets caught in the middle – though I sense he’s not entirely without blame on that front. The cast will include the likes of Nicholas Hoult, Ian McShane, […]

Xperia giving away 50GB Box lifetime accounts

December 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is pretty good as far as holiday season giveaways go. You need to act between the 15th of Devember and the 31st of December in order to qualify and, of course, you need an Xperia smartphone from Sony Ericsson. Log into a Box account just once through Box for Android and you’ll pick up […]

Runes of Magic joins Score for More

December 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Score for More is a clever idea! Gamers can qualify for beta tests to games, special events, extra in-game items or personalised bonus cards simply by playing their favourite game and registering at Score For More. This in addition to the usual XP and loot that the usual game play brings about. There’s a wiggle, […]

Video of Samsung’s Galaxy S II leaks

December 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This video is one for the tech-heads and Androiders among us. This video also appears to be a leak and so may well be YouTube yanked. Things to note; this is a smart phone running Android 4.0.1. That’s the latest of the latest. Samsung have been doing very well of late by backing Android and […]

Goliath

December 14, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Fan movies take another step forward? This one looks too good to be true. Alex Popov says he came up with the concept, did the drops, the camera, the directing, the editing, the post vfx, the sound… and well, I don’t think he did all the acting. The trailer isn’t for a real movie. It’s […]

Bearded Dragon loves to play games on her HTC Android

December 14, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This Bearded Dragon seems to be happy to play Ant Crusher on this HTC Android smart phone. It’s not hard to work out why she’s so good at it. She seems happy enough but after the cute factor… a little bit of me worries this might be cruel. I hope she’s given a tasty ant […]

Twisted Princesses: Disney Princesses as RPG monsters

December 13, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

Twisted Princesses is a series of illustrations from the very talented Jeffrey Thomas. The series shows some of our favourite Disney princesses looking creepy. Thomas doesn’t use the phrase “RPG monsters” to describe the princesses. That’s my choice but I think it fits… I mean; a gamer would respond to the situation without surprise. A […]

Link does Tron. The Zelda Daft Punk mashup.

December 13, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

All praise to David R Cole the designer (Flickr | @DavidRCole). Fame and hopefully fortune await now that this pretty awesome Zelda Daft Punk mashup is spreading around the web. It’s Link as Tron. Link does Tron? On his website David’s pitch is “I try and make things simple, so people are happy”. I’d say […]

Impressive Spacegodzilla model

December 13, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There are a few Godzillas. There is Mechagodzilla, after all, and also Spacegodzilla with his mighty crystal growths. Sideshow Collectibles have a rather impressive Spacegodzilla model coming their way via Bandai for early next year. It’s not super expensive in terms of collectibles but it’s still rare enough to be limited to no more than […]
