Velociraptors are really clever girls

April 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

ADHD give us a parody of the famous “Clever girl!” scene from Jurassic Park. You know the one; Robert Muldoon has just been flanked by the stalking velociraptors, he knows he’s going to die but he still finds time to be impressed.

The Sea

April 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This stunning illustration is from the Finnish artist Ture Ekroos. Ekroos has worked with game companies like Abandon Interactive Entertainment, PoBros Games and White Wolf Publishing. You can check out Ture’s collection at his site or buy this particular print from Society6. I’m sure this image evokes thoughts of Cthulhu for many gamers but it’s […]

Boba Fett stained glass

April 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This remarkable piece of art was created by Michael McLane. It shows the ever popular bounty hunter, Boba Fett, in stained glass. I always associate churches with stained glass and can only imagine what sort of church a display like this would be part of.

Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters trailer

April 2, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

The trailer for Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters is out and it looks good. The distribution strategy seems to be a bit of a mess, the main sites carrying the news are using a geo-locked embed (it’s not as if the movie will only air in the States) and YouTube is a glut of reaction […]

From the Inkwell: The problem with being a; flesh-eating, blood-drinking, skin-wearing, bone-collecting, vengeful humanitarian

April 1, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This From the Inkwell design essay is from Tim Westhaven of Broken Tower. Broken Tower’s FateStorm system is a diceless, detailed, set of RPG mechanics and the company has just released the Shattered Moon setting for it. In Shattered Moon players take on the roll of Sidhe. These people had ancient souls that finally awoke […]

The movie version of Bioshock Infinite

April 1, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Watch out for spoilers if you’re still to finish the game. This is an experiment. This video takes the cutscenes from the game to make a three hour and thirty minute movie. Okay, the creator makes the point of saying this isn’t just a collection of cutscenes as a lot of the story and dialogue […]

April 1, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s April Fools’ Day and therefore understandable that people are treating this news with cautious – but many news outlets are reporting that Lacasarts and Dark Horse will publish The Star Wars. Bleeding Cool has the same news but Rich Johnston’s write up was published yesterday. Let’s go with this as being real. Back in […]

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug preview feature

April 1, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This isn’t a trailer as such but this feature with Peter Jackson does give as a peak into the second Hobbit film; The Desolation of Smaug. Released on April Fools’ Day it does have some joking with questions from special guest stars but is certainly worth a watch. I especially liked the Mirkwood art. Via […]
