Intel paid $110 MILLION for Havok
Looks like I picked the wrong time to cash out. I could have retired and be chilling in Rome now. Oh, wait.
Weekend Project: Soup Up Your Xbox Media Center - Lifehacker
I soft-hacked my Xbox and it is, by far, the most important part of my TV setup. I’d encourage everyone to pick up an Xbox (cheap!) and give this a go.
Review: BioShock
Okay, let’s cut right through the hyperbole, the 10/10 scores, all that bullshit. BioShock is not that great. In fact, it’s hard not to be disappointed by BioShock. It is at once the most incredible and most frustrating game in recent memory.
BioShock starts off beautifully. After an amazing, cinematic opening, [...]
Havok acquired by Intel
Gamedaily has the news that Intel has acquired Havok, Dublin’s videogame pride and joy (and my old employer).
“This is a great fit for Havok products, customers and employees,” added Havok CEO David O’Meara. “Intel’s scale of technology investment and customer reach enable Havok with opportunities to grow more quickly into new market segments with [...]
Keys to our apartment

Rewards
Play through Ico for the first time and Yorda, your companion, speaks in a incomprehensible language of shapes and symbols. Play through it a second time and Yorda speaks in English. This is both an incentive to replay the game and a reward, especially if you were captivated by the game on the [...]

Ikaruga coming to Xbox Live Arcade too!
Holy shit! First Rez, now Ikaruga? I think I just came.
Rez coming to Xbox Live Arcade in HD
Best news I’ve heard all day. I already own the Dreamcast and Playstation versions, but I’m still going to pick this up. Why? I just love this game that much. I wonder if they’ll add support for the Rez Trance Vibrator.
Tough weeks
The last two weeks here have been the toughest so far.
Last Monday, I had a bit of a meltdown. I’d been feeling pretty blue and run down for a few days, and didn’t really think anything of it. Man-period, I thought. But after talking about it and I realised I was [...]
Shoot ‘Em Up: Worst Sex Scene Ever?
(Mildly NSFW)
Looks like Crank has been robbed of its title of “Film with most ridiculous sex scene ever filmed”. The new champion is “Shoot ‘Em Up“, an action movie with Clive Owen and Monica Bellucci. There are no words for just how head-smackingly stupid this scene is, so you really need to [...]
Zero Punctuation’s ’sober’ review of Bioshock
I wish more games reviews were like this. Someone get this man on the telly.
Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You’re my only hope
Holy shit, this is incredible. Reminds me a little of those “holographic” FMV games from the early 1990s. Still though, with this kind of thing on the horizon, flying cars can’t be too far away.
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son
