    Rumor: Activision Hungrily Eying Take Two

    Pretty much this, especially the top part. I'm sure there was a feature on TC:HK on Xbox Live just a couple of weeks ago? That really piqued my interest! Dammit.

    Filmmaker Hopes Zombies Eat Your Neighbors

    I like this idea! The 'high school coming-of-age story' angle made me think of how Shaun of the Dead is essentially a romantic comedy that happens to take place during a zombie apocalypse. Here's hoping it gets picked up and performs!

    Beer Bombs Away With the "Mini Fridge Beer Cannon"

    I'm not sure about beer but the tapping thing works on any other carbonated drink, so... I dunno, maybe I'll test this at a party tonight but I'm thinking the tap method would mean you'd be golden to crack that beer open immediately after delivery.

    Mass Effect 3 Trailer Confirms Earth is Screwed

    Don't forget that the initial teasers and trailers for ME2 were that Shepard was dead / had died. Literally all of the pre-release stuff was about that, or the game engine changes. Shepard dying was a massive hook around the hype of ME2, yet it was an event that occurs literally at the start...

    BioWare Confirms Space Combat For Star Wars: The Old Republic

    The space combat in Galaxies was actually pretty cool, sharing a lot of common ground with Freelancer in terms of playstyle and experience. This was a pretty good thing, and generally the only thing I really enjoyed about Galaxies when I tried it out last year. If they carry that sort of...

    Critical Miss: #13

    I'm now also trying to figure out if the artist credit line at the bottom was a song lyric last time. This comic is shaping up ok!

    Today's Dead Celebrity Is.....

    This topic didn't come when I just searched. Weirdness. Pretty gutted about this tbh, the guy was an incredible actor and only ever enriched the movies he appeared in, and the idea of not seeing him in any new productions is a very depressing one. Peace be with you, Dennis.

    Blizzard Reveals WoW: Cataclysm's Female Worgen

    Looks like they're re-using the Draenei skeleton and animations at the moment, but aside from that, would prefer them to make them look a little more feral, seem a bit too clean cut at the moment. Almost remind me of Egyptian style cat people, which is weird.

    Street Fighter: Legacy Dragon Punches Every Street Fighter Movie

    Watching this got me to thinking; instead of a Street Fighter movie, why not a TV series? I was thinking, follow the formula of the TV Show Lost. Each episode is a fight between two competitors in some tournament or whatever, and each episode comprises of both the build up to the fight and...

    Poll: UK Election Day

    Not sure if you've had this picked up on elsewhere in the thread, but that Bill has passed into law. Seriously, check it out. It was rushed through while everybody was out on the campaign trail, with practically no MPs showing up to vote on it, aside from a large Conservative presence enough to...

    Poll: Does anyone actually own a CD-i?

    Voted but the poll seems to have not recognised it. I used to have one, my father bought it pretty much when it came out in the UK. It was a pretty revolutionary thing at the time! The games we had were: The 7th Guest - which was way more awesome than the PC version on account of it's...

    Hacker Group Claims Real Ubisoft DRM Crack

    Seeing SkidRow attached to anything makes me incredibly nostalgic for my Amiga days. While I can't really condone piracy, at least legitimate consumers now have a method to play the game hassle-free.

    12-Year-Old Rings Up $1400 Farmville Bill

    Uh, most banks or card providers would require police involvement to refuse charges. By involving the police, you are officially declaring that you have been defrauded and requesting their involvement in investigation. You would still likely not get your money back until the fraudsters have been...

    Resident Evil: Afterlife Trailer Released

    Considering it was a remix made for the last film's soundtrack, it's not completely out of place. As a side note, the same tune was used on a trailer for Repo Men as well.
