This medley of songs is taken from Stoic’s superb The Banner Saga. The fantasy Viking game was dark at times, dramatic at times and sad at times. It had fantastic vistas as the surviving Vikings wandered across snowy landscapes and there were dreamlike touches of magic. This medley of Banner Saga features Taylor Davis and […]

Dead Space motorcycle helmet is a work of art
This Dead Space style motorcycle helmet is the work of Xtreme Kreations. I’d say they live up to their name. Xtreme custom paint your motorcycle and accessories. If you want to see more then their Facebook page and gallery on site are great places to start. There’s no doubt this helmet captures the essence of […]
Wonderful heart shaped steampunk 32GB USB
This is a wonderful build. Sold by Artype on Etsy this handmade heart of wood, rubber, silver and cocobolo is a memory stick too. The design is superb. The tiny USB key pulls out from the wooden heart and into your machine. Okay, as it’s heart shaped it’s perhaps not the very best way to […]
Shadows of Esteren wows Kickstarter with Tuath
One of my favourite RPGs to come to me via Kickstarter is Shadows of Esteren. There have been some really great RPGs made possible by Kickstarter but I hold up Esteren as iconic for two reasons. Firstly, this is an RPG that would probably never have left France and been made available in English without […]
The metal remake RoboCop deserves
Have you seen the new RoboCop? Did you notice that they were happy enough to include some of the famous bits from the original theme? I did. I suspect 331ERock had already started work on this cover long before the remake hit the cinemas which means YouTube’s king of geek metal also had plenty of […]
This Lady Red Skull cosplay may illicit mixed reactions

You may not be able to decide whether it’s the femme, the horror or Hydra’s military aspects of the cosplay dominate […]
Explosive stuff: A review of the Realmsound Project
It took a pair of Kickstarters, but the Realmsound Project is now well underway and even generating coverage from the likes of the Orange County Register. The goal was to create a soundboard and plenty of audio for GMs, DMs, Keepers, Storytellers and the evil one behind the screen to use to add atmosphere to […]

Let’s talk comic books. What would you recommend? What series needs to be checked out and read by […]
Cute magma dragons! Dragons and Beasties strikes again
One of the most popular dragon posts on Geek Native is this set of kawaai dice holders from Etsy retailer Dragons and Beasties. The problem? The Etsy store is always empty as the dragons sell out so quickly. Good news; Becca Golins’ Deviant Art page alerts us to two more super cute dragons. Better news; […]
The cannibal in the woods: A review of Grimm’s The Chopping Block
The Chopping Block is the second in the Grimm novels. Based on the TV show the story is set between the TV episodes “The Waking Dead” and “Goodnight, Sweet Grimm”. In other words; the grim is starting to ratchet up in Grimm. I was actually a little surprised at how gory The Chopping Block got […]
