Fable 2 (Xbox 360) Review

by J Patrick Ohlde on 04. Jan, 2009 in Video Games

Summary [8.5 out of 10]
The first Fable game is known just as well for its list of unfulfilled promises as its solid and fun game play. Fable 2 finally delivers on some of those promises but still fails to revolutionize RPGs as we know them.
It has a much longer quest, more satisfying side quests, and [...]

AHHHH, The Happiest Place on Earth!

AHHHH, The Happiest Place on Earth!

by Katie Mullaly on 06. Oct, 2008 in Humor & Fun

I am remiss in my duties to tell everyone that I went to Disneyland.
Neener, neener.

Perhaps it’s the instant nostalgia that is conjured by images of the old [...]

"…But it's a DRY heat!"

by G on 28. Aug, 2008 in Humor & Fun

I’d like to know what Einstein came up with the idea of tubing through the Arizona desert in the middle of August. I mean, who says, “Hey! It’s 124 degrees outside, we have no trees so we have no shade…I know! Let’s go get some black rubber inner tubes, dehydrate our bodies further with as [...]

Roy Jones & Felix Trinidad Boxing

Roy Jones Beats Felix Trinidad

by Riyad Kalla on 20. Jan, 2008 in Humor & Fun

Don’t know how many boxing fans are out there, but Roy Jones took a unanimous decision win over Felix Trinidad Saturday night (Jan 19th) after knocking him down in the 7th and 10th rounds.
The consensus seems to be that while both fighters were well past their primes (by about 5 years each) and Trinidad came [...]

Kotaku has the poop on this sweet-ass gun mod using a Nerf gun and a Nerf chainsaw.
The entire process including pictures of it along the way are included in Forsaken_angel24’s thread over on the Nerfhaven forums.
To see a video of this puppy in action, check out Forsaken’s video of making it and then it in [...]

Happy New Year!

by Riyad Kalla on 01. Jan, 2008 in Life & World

Well it’s 2008 and we are all still here. If you want to post with what your New Year’s resolution was I’d be thankful.
Mine is to “live in the now”… which means more than it sounds like. Check out “The Power of Now” for an excellent book that discusses living “in the now”.

Crysis Physics: 3000 Barrels

by Riyad Kalla on 15. Dec, 2007 in Humor & Fun, Technology, Video Games

For the readers that remember the “Crysis Extreme Physics” post from a few weeks ago, here’s a new one to whet your appetite:
Just a reminder, this isn’t a movie recorded at real time. The processing power required to actually calculate all those physical bodies is something that no PC can do right now.

Extreme Physics in Crysis

by Riyad Kalla on 03. Dec, 2007 in Humor & Fun, Video Games

These are some pretty sweet physics in Crysis, some of the more interesting stuff (like a giant man made out of 1000s of boxes) start around 2mins in and go to the end, pretty entertaining to watch.
NOTE: No computer currently can run these physics at an acceptable framerate, the person that recorded this video did [...]
