Cinematic montage explodes with greatness and over 300 clips

January 24, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is the second cinematic montage from GameOvais and it is incredible. It’s hard not to become a champion for cinema after watching a collection like this. It’s worth keeping your geek hat on too and watch how many of these great films are directly inspired or taken from geeky titles. There’s over 300 movies […]

When the GM is too good with NPCs…

January 23, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

What happens when your GM is really good at bringing NPCs to life and building those relationships with your characters? That’s all good. Right? Or could the GM get too good at this? The Good Cop, Great Cop team explore this issue in this short little video. Surprisingly, well worth a watch. (Via Reddit)

Have we got archery all wrong?

January 23, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 17 Comments

It’s been a few years since Geek Native asked do RPG designers need to rethink archery mechanics?. At time Danish archer Lars Andersen was in focus. He’s back again with this video. It should make us wonder whether we know anything about archery at all. The video admits that measuring the stopping power of Lars’ […]

Attack on Titan: No Regrets previews

January 23, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Based on the “A Choice With No Regrets” visual novel, No Regrets is an Attack on Titan Levi side story. As you’d expect the manga keeps the focus on Levi and acts as a prequel to the main story. The side story will be bundled with the 15th and 16th episodes of the main series.

The Harp Twins take their talents to Star Wars

January 23, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 5 Comments

It’s been a while since we’ve covered the Harp Twins on Geek Native. The first track in this Star Wars collection works very well on harps, I think, and the costume change once you’re a minute in is quite something! My favourite in the collection is the familiar Star Wars melody in the third clip. […]

Weyland’s chestbuster creme egg!

January 23, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

You might have heard of changes to the creme egg recently. Maybe you heard it was all about the chocolate. You might not have considered the Weyland-Yutani Corp takeover. (Via Geek Art Gallery and Pix of the Day)

Undead and Loving It: A Review of End of the World: Zombie Apocalypse

January 23, 2015 by Ed 1 Comment

What is it with pop culture and zombies? In the introductory chapter of its new roleplaying game, End of the World: Zombie Apocalypse, Fantasy Flight Games breaks it down for you, plain and simple: Zombies are the perfect manifestation of the end of the world. Inexorable, unstoppable, contagious, and beyond understanding—whatever scares you, whatever you think could destroy the […]

Streaming Xbox content to Windows 10 looks neat

January 23, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DI4QVOaLCWk This looks good. For a start; all the Windows machines in my little flat are on Windows 7 or above so that means Windows 10 upgrades will be free. There are two Xboxes in the same flat. The old Xbox 360 and the older Xbox 360. That’s not so good. I’d need an Xbox […]

Age of Vader: Star Wars done Ultron style

January 23, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There are no strings on Vader. This mashup from The Unusual Suspect takes original Star Wars footage and gives it an Avengers: The Age of Ultron style theme. Result? Works pretty well. What do you think?

The Wedding Party

January 22, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 10 Comments

This week’s Paeregrine strip is worth a chuckle. Well worth adding the site to your usual web comic visit list too.
