⇒ don't forget zombies

gabe and tycho hit it again. I'm sick of all these pseudo-vampires (Twilight, Tru Blood, Vampire Diaries, Underworld, Vampire Apprentice, Daybreakers, et al.) and zombies (Zombieland, whatever of the Dead, crappy Resident Evil movies). Oversaturation and unoriginality kills. If you're going to do something with one (or both) of these gimmicks, try something original.

⇒ webcomic, E3 commentary

i love this time of the year: E3 and Tennis tournaments (French Open, Queen's Club, Wimbledon). The crappy Sydney winter chill is an even better excuse to stay indoors.

why Project Natal fails:
"People in the casual market like feeling something physical to keep your hands aligned," he said. "When you grab the Wiimote and swing it, it feels like you're swinging a baseball bat, versus pantomining swinging a bat. I think that if you take all [the controllers] away and you're just pantomiming everything, there may be some disconnect with realism there."
-Chris Arbogast, Nyko's director of marketing
I concur

Awesome caricatures

Some amazing sand sculptures.
amazing beat box girl

at first i thought this looked a bit katamari-ripoff-ish (it is Namco's), but the video won me over. No doubts about which country this game hails from. Me want!
