Sponsored Video: 5 Christmas traditions worth skipping

December 18, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Christmas is a busy time of year and it can be quite stressful. That’s a shame. From its origins as a pagan festival, its co-opting by Christianity to the modern day combination of festive fun, shopping and a touch of religious respect where appropriate the day still has meaning to many people. That said; there […]

Sponsored Video: Spying on The Evil Within

June 3, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Early last year Geek Native showed The Evil Within trailer. The game is a partnership between Skyrim’s Bethesda and the creator of Resident Evil. Trailers are one way to get a feel for a game but in a way they undersell the sort of immersive horrors that Shinji Mikami is known for. We’re all pretty […]

Aliens and giant robots invade London

March 21, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Londoners are a hardy lot and quite hard to fool – but Pepsi Max managed a few successes with this bus stop campaign. As you wait for the bus it looks like there’s just a window on the side but it’s actually a camera and screen. Pepsi’s ad agencies then threw in animations like robots […]
