Bethesda’s Dishonored

April 22, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This trailer has been out for a couple of days now and this post is just to make sure you’ve seen it. Okay, this post would also like to debate the spelling; Dishonored or Dishonoured – but is willing to set aside all those minor concerns because the game looks epic. This is a story […]

Hot Wheels RC kicks stake park

April 22, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This video of a Hot Wheels remote controlled car zipping around a stake park in Venice Beach is pretty cool. The car is a Ken Block Fiesta RC and it can clearly turn on a dime. I imagine this is only possible because of the incredible power to weight ratio it has. However, it’s a […]

Fan service, ahoy! Lollipop Chainsaw cheerleader has two sisters

April 20, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Warner are really pushing the Lollipop Chainsaw game. It’s due out on July 15th for Xbox and PlayStation. It’s been making geek news left, right and centre. For example, professional cosplayer Jessica Nigri managed to get herself banned from Pax East after she changed out of her Juliet costume and into something /pink/. Lollipop Chainsaw […]

April 19, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The BBC is reporting that Dundee Uni researchers have invented the sonic screwdriver. So, how does the Doctor Who device work? The Dundee University researchers have created a machine which uses ultrasound to lift and rotate a rubber disc floating in a cylinder of water. It is said to be the first time ultrasound waves […]

Sponsored Video: Galaxy Note PS – my thoughts

April 19, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This post contains an advert video from Samsung for the Galaxy Note. I decided to post it because I think the Note is worth talking about. I’m just back from The Gadget Show Live and one of my main observations was that the iPhone was hardly insight. To be clear, the iPad was everywhere and […]

Teasing Cold & Dark: the free to download Lost Redemption

April 19, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Last month Geek Native was lucky enough to have an exclusive look at Cold & Dark; an RPG from Wicked World Games. At the time I speculated whether the game might touch on the Mass Effect style. Lost Redemption seems to suggest so. It’s also been noted that Cold & Dark promises to be a […]

The haunting art of Anton Semenov

April 18, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Anton Semenov – also known a Gloom82 – produces some gloomy, haunting but also breathtaking art. His style is what I’ve come to expect from the Russian masters. It’s willful and commanding. You can follow him on LiveJournal.

Zelda pixel health bar necklace

April 17, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Over on Etsy, home of so many geeky goods, laser cutter specialist LicketyCut has a necklace worthy of attention. Cut from acrylic, the necklace shows a three heart health bar from the Legend of Zelda. It’s 50% full (or empty, your view). Of course, this is generic enough to be a health bar from quite […]
