Shut Up And Take My Money: LEGO Introduces Ultimate Collectors Series Star Wars B-Wing
“Yeh, the LEGO ve produce is so… how do you zay… zexy?”
When we were at Phoenix Comicon last year, one of the most interesting things I saw was a booth where a fully-constructed 3,000+ piece LEGO Millennium Falcon, then the largest set they’d ever sold, sat alone on a table. Oh, the people that ran the booth weren’t selling anything, it was just there. The idea of celebrating a LEGO Star Wars creation is something I’d put in video form, but I’m not sure if I’d rent a booth and do it. To each their own.

What Are YOU Playing While Waiting For The Planetside 2 Beta To Start?
NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m going to admit it…It’s driving me absolutely insane. I’m waiting with bated breath, like a kid before Christmas. I’m antsy. I’m on the edge of my seat. I’m dying with anticipation. Every time I get an email I jam in to my email program as fast as I can get there, hoping it will be the notification that the Planetside 2 beta has begun and it’s time to get in there and split some wigs.

It’s been eight months since we’ve gotten anything besides single from Gambino and I’ve been needing my fix. The other day Gambino dropped his latest mixtape, Royalty. Well what do we think of it?

You Can Buy A Galaxy Nexus In The US Again… For A Little Bit
Beautiful phone, hindered by Apple
You didn’t think the iPhone was the only smartphone hindered by Apple, did you? (Insert laughter here.) The international patent war amongst mobile companies like Apple, Google, Motorola, and Samsung has gotten many products banned in various countries. Last week, Apple convinced US federal courts that Google’s flagship device should be banned. And so they did. But now it’s available, if only for a brief moment.

SplashBang – Graphics, Sound, Video…Cool Company
First off, let me start by saying that this is NOT a paid advertisement or endorsement of any person or company…I’m writing this article because I like the company and I like what they’re doing.
A few months ago, I wrote an article about a video which was done by one of our fans, the art series which he had done and the company he was starting. In that time, his vision has come a long way and his company is getting off the ground. I took some time to revisit what he’s been up to and I have to tell you; I’m impressed.

Just A Quick Word On Sex And Sexuality In Gaming
oooooh…Sexay!
Earlier today I read an article by a guy who sits as the editor in chief of a magazine which focuses on gaming and development, in which the author discussed, at length, the use of sex and sexual imagery in the design and marketing off games. I’m not going to name the author or the article, because I’m not here to pick an internet slap-fight with a guy whose magazine I neither read, nor care about.
Throughout the article, the author condemned the practice, though he doesn’t seem to have the man-parts to just come right out and say so, so his condemnation took the tone of a mild scolding and some ridicule of industry decision-making. Since I DO have the man parts to share my opinion, though, I’ll do just that.

With the upcoming release of Windows 8 sneaking up on us, we are seeing tons of news and rumors leaking in. The latest comes from Win8China, who has been able to obtain one of the latest builds.

Miss Master Of Orion? Endless Space Might Cure What Ails Ya
Does this shot get you as excited as I am right now? Yeeeeeessssssss…
Everyone knows I’m the biggest fan of Master of Orion in the entire galaxy (Hell, my official title here at FEZ is “Galactic Emperor”. Yes, it’s on my business cards!) so it pains me that no titles in the past twenty years have really come close to replicating the elegance of its ‘conquer the galaxy’ design.
UPDATE: Read the review here!
