Sony was nice enough to send Square-Enix (Squenix?) this delicious-looking cake in honor of the Final Fantasy series reaching 100 million total sales. It features a proud frosting Chocobo and a congratulatory message.
Video games are the most prevalent type of interactive media, but certainly not the only one. The interactive music video for the song "3 Dreams of Black" by supergroup ROME and digital artist Chris Milk utilizes the latest web design technology, video game influenced art and interactivity, and large crowd-sourced elements to form a compelling work of art. ROME is composed of producer extraordinaire Danger Mouse, Italian film composer Daniele Luppi, Norah Jones, and Jack White. Their recent e...
I am more excited for this indie gem from Supergiant games than I am for any other 2011 release. The gameplay, visual style, music, and unique narration all look focused and stimulating.
Sabrepulse is a UK DJ who uses a laptop and an original Game Boy to make beautiful electronic music.
Probably my favorite video game video of all time.
This has been my desktop background for about a month. No piece of art for a game that is months away from release has ever had that honor.
This is my first video of many that I will be making. I will be making videos for Call of Duty Black Ops as well as Battlefield 3 once that game comes out. If you are interested, then make sure to join my world = )
Were you horrified when Gwyneth Paltrow's head ended up in a box in Se7en? Do you share Harrison Ford's opinion that Han Solo should have died in Return of the Jedi? Think Kurt Russell could have handled aliens better in The Thing? Well, sorry—you're out of luck. There's nothing you can do to prevent William Wallace's beheading or Carrie's mayhem. But thanks to MyndPlay, controlling the plot to future films is totally possible.
Above are the posters for perfect storm. I've included a painting that inspired the poster.
An original musical composition created by cutting together existing sounds from within David Fincher's films. There is NO outside audio, sound effects, or music. David Fincher is an Academy Award nominated director.
I amm getting chocolates and cotton candy as gifts from my friends but when I click on the use button the game says I can't use them just yet. When do these come into play?
Dumb as it may be, it sure looks fun. And when boredom comes calling... (for those with a death wish)... presenting, the highly dangerous game of car surfing:
Try bending your mind around this one: HowTo take your classic game of Rock-Paper-Scissors to the next level. From Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal Comics:
On January 5th, Rovio Mobile released Angry Birds Free to the iOS App Store, a free, light version of their popular flagship title, Angry Birds.
Is an MTG game fun to watch? Is it fun to watch Internet videos of? As an online video professional, I take an interest in what is fun or not fun to do online vs. in reality, and so will post some different types of MTG gameplay videos to see if ya'll like 'em. Stay tuned.
Perhaps the greatest iPad accessory released thus far, presenting the JOYSTICK-IT, an attachable arcade stick to make the most of your iPad x arcade gaming experience. Sorry guys, this one isn't a DIY. Available at ThinkGeek for $24.99.
While it's unlikely you'll encounter this caliber of insane pixelated madness in real-life, everyday New York City, you might be lucky enough to walk past a tangible "portal" of sorts. Below, images from Pixel Pour 2.0, an installation on Mercer Street in Soho.
The world has been overflowing with Microsoft Kinect hacks, each more amazing than the last. The latest innovation, created by a group of engineers at USC, promises an exciting future in gaming (and gets gamers off their asses). The program is called FAAST, and allows for full body motion control in different PC applications, such as World of Warcraft, as demonstrated below: Previously, Hacked Kinect Captures 3D Video in Real Time.

Oooh...looks like Amazon's having a sale on their word games for Kindle. Of which Scrabble is one of them. If you've got a Kindle, you should not miss out on this!
Here is the movie trailer for the feature film "Love and Other Drugs" Here are 6 clips from the film Love and Other Drugs
Everybody loves Oprah Winfrey. Maybe it's because of her philanthropy. Maybe it's her onscreen personality. Maybe it's the fact that it was a rags to riches story. Or maybe it's because she likes SCRABBLE...
We've said it before and we'll say it again: Practice makes perfect. Even when it comes to the improbable art of long-distance parotta throwing. If there were an Olympic gold medal for doughy discus throw, this South Indian chef would surely take it.
Imagine the marriage of UFC and arm wrestling and you've got the exceedingly ridiculous sport of XARM. Seriously, this is an "official" sport with a league. The game works like this: the contenders' arms are taped together and the first to pin the other's arm or knock them out across the table wins.
New Crops and Free gifts Columbine
A new game from the makers of No More Heroes and Resident Evil coming out on 2011 from EA. It looks like something like out of a Quentin Tarantino movie. A third person shooter, it's probably another attempt by creators in Japan to tap into the lucrative shooter market in the US.
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology recently set about creating what might aptly be described as a baby Decepticon — a small, semi-autonomous robot vehicle that purposely engages in deceptive behavior to achieve its ends (in this case, winning a game of hide and seek). Worried? You needn't be! The project also seeks to examine "the ethical ramifications of creating robot's [sic] capable of deception." Phew!
Viewtiful Joe, Okami! This game is looking like the next fighter to get, moreso than Street Fighter vs Tekken.Here is some recent gameplay action

This might be so '2 weeks ago' but I've been away, oh well. In a few short words: The PS3 has finally been hacked via a USB device!
It's great to see something that will probably never make it to the United States. This game from Atlus looks like a fancy art film. It's an adult thriller filled with murderous sheep-men and the American taboo: sex.
There were some additions to the game today that are not part of a theme. First off we have a new Co-Op that you can join to win the Truck Seeder
DYVOUR n pl. -S one who is bankrupt Nigel Richards played this word in his very first game in the 2010 National SCRABBLE Championship (NSC) held in Texas, which ended today. Richards won that first game against Lucas Freeman with a 462 to 392 score, but "DYVOUR" was no forewarning for Richards — not at all.
As a tribute to video game classic, Street Fighter, Hongkiat has compiled a collection of impressively done artwork on the theme. My favorites below; click through for the whole series of 60 (and artist credits).
Or is it mash up? Click on the image for a larger picture. There are some characters I don't know but so far the games listed:
Man, I can't tell you how sorry I am that I missed this year's 14th Annual Summer Redneck Games, a competition held yearly in East Dublin, Georgia. Fiercely proud hillbillies from across the deep South compete in the following contests: the Armpit Serenade, Bobbin’ for Pigs Feet, the Mud Pit Belly Flo, and Watermelon Seed Spitting.
Can you name what they all are?
