    Artist Recreates Star Wars in Calvin & Hobbes Style

    Bill Watterson would be sick if he saw these. A large part of his work was rebelling and mocking the very principles upon which star wars is founded.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Full Trailer Stands Revealed

    Knowing that luke isn't conventionally trained as a "good" jedi and that most jedi knowledge is lost it seems pretty plausible he has redeveloped how the force works without all the subterfuge and propaganda produced by the jedi institution. For all we know he's "evil" in that he's doing what...

    Watch: Pianist Plays Super Mario Bros Medley on a Custom NES Piano

    Anyone else willing to admit super mario bros and the entire mario world, while genre defining were actually mediocre games and didn't really play that big of a role in their lives? And that all this "geek" pandering is just a way for many entertainers to stay relevant (not that that's...

    Gabe Newell Speaks on The Whole Paid Skyrim Mods Debacle

    Given that all of valve's biggest games have been born from modding, my theory is that this is Gabe's strategy for generating a new IP. By establishing a framework with Bethseda for profiting from modded content and also introducing a method for giving modders financial reward, Valve sets...

    I really don't care if it was the worst launch ever. I'm going to judge the expac for how fun it is. So far so good though.

    Imagine if they put all that money and man hours to updating the WoW engine. It would truly become an eternal game then.

    Blizzard Cancels Ambitious Titan MMO After Seven Years

    Better to scrap a train wreck before it even happens. Despite the trashing of blizzards design philosophy it's good to see a developer recognize that a product that isn't great isn't worh putting out. Even if millions have been spent and hundreds of hours wasted.

    Surprise! Digital Downloads Have Bigger Carbon Footprint Than Most Discs

    1. We are looking at energy, not material costs of games. 2. Over 90% of energy is from gameplay. Not distribution. Distribution only makes a small difference in energy consumption. 3. What was evaluated was the energy to read and write and transport the discs. Not the shipping of said discs...

    The Fantastic Four Reboot is Doomed
