BioShock is one of the best games of all time. It combines FPS gameplay with RPG storytelling and supports multiple systems better than any other game, that much is for sure. And the setting of its amazing story is a place called Rapture, a high-tech libertarian colony at the bottom of the Atlantic built by Andrew Ryan, a greying industrialist clearly inspired by John Galt and his creator Ayn Rand, the mother of Objectivism and modern American libertarianism in general. Ryan is a Soviet exile...
Localizing a game is a task many do not fully understand. Not only do localizers have to translate the games they work on into a different language, but they have to translate it into a different culture as well. Oftentimes art assets, plot elements, and menu systems are changed to suit regional sensitivities. Japanese media tends to have their common drunkard characters removed or censored in American versions, for example.
Much of the press around the launch of Google+ has pitted it squarely against Facebook. This was highlighted painfully for Facebook with their (misguidedly dubbed) "awesome" announcements yesterday. Their launch of a new design, video calling, and group chat might have been exciting, had not Google announced its Hangout feature for Google+ a week earlier (and by the way, introduced their own 1-on-1 video calling inside of Gmail way back in 2008). Hangouts took video calling a step further and...
The order was given months ago: Build me a royal garden.
Team Fortress 2 (TF2) is one of the best multiplayer games of all time. It took nine years to make, and the developers have supported it with more post-release free updates than any other game ever. Four years after its release in 2007, it is still immensely popular, and although its price has gone down, Valve has managed to continue making a massive profit by introducing the first successful microtransaction model in a mainstream American shooter. That model has been so successful that it lo...
What happens when a person who has never played a building sandbox game tries it for the first time? Reality happens. The harsh reality of human nature. You would think playing with friends in a creation game would be utopia, but in truth it's more like being stuck with people that would walk all over you if it provided a softer path.
In case you haven't noticed, I absolutely adore video games. Most of my friends don't, so to get my fix of knowledgable video game conversation I have turned to podcasts. They're free, they feature the smartest people in games journalism, and can be enjoyed while doing just about anything. Working. Walking the dog. Crying yourself to sleep. Whatever you're into.
The widely used expression "free as a bird" intimates an enviable existence: delicate, yet mighty wings transporting to destinations no human could so breezily venture. But despite their fanciful, superhero ability, in truth, the avian race leads one of the most difficult existences in the animal kingdom. Yes, birds have existed for eons—they likely evolved from small dinosaurs of the Jurassic period—but for these creatures, life can be ruthless.
Sounds like a false promise à la infomercial or typical spammy web headline—how can a 4.8 ounce gadget aid in weight loss? But, in truth, "who" better to act as a dedicated personal trainer and nutritionalist than the iPhone? The smartphone is completely and utterly tethered to the daily life of the average middle to upper class American. It's reliable and exact. All it needs is a charged battery, the right app, and of course, as with every diet and fitness regime, a user with unwavering self...

Let's face it— most people don't understand Shakespeare's language. If they say they do, they're probably lying. The poetic words of the world's most famous playwright continue to plague school children and college lit. majors alike, but not anymore.

To Start Off I'm 16 So I Know I Won't Be Able To Win But I'm Hoping That I Could Inspire You Guys To Do This Prank But It's Okay If You Don't Want Too. Anyways The Prank Is That Someone Stands Out On A Ledge Of A Bridge Over A Body Of Water Then A Crane Picks Up A Giant Water Balloon And Crashes Right Into Them Causing Them To Fall Into The Water. That's Pretty Much It, It Sounds Stupid But I Think It Would Be Funny. Thanks For Reading, I Appreciate You Taking The Time To Read My Entry.

SLOW DOWN.............NO SPEED UP "OUCH"Very simple but also very stupid and funny (remember safety first)All you need is 2 guys dressed as cops, lying across the road or pavement acting as speed bumps whilst the rest of the guys on bikes drive over them or try jump them!
The main purpose of this prank is to annoy people/shopkeepers Find a shop or house which you hate or just like to pick on all the time.
Have one of the jackass guys think the skit is to go tandem skydiving with a funny costume on but the real prank is right as the jackass guy and the skydiving instructor jump out of the airplane the skydiving instructor says, "oh shit" and pretends their was a malfunction with the parachute that they're not deploying and then when they get close enough that they need to deploy it he deploys it and the jackass guy has been scared shitless

Ok this idea is funny you get Ryan Dunn to dress like a bum on the streets askng for spare change and Bam gives the bum (Dunn) a burger with a drink and fries and the bum gets mad and says I wanted money, Bam turns around and says what? Then Ryan the bum starts pushing Bam and they get into a fight so people will be watching and at the end Bam kidnapps the bum (Dunn) and takes off and film peoples face expressions.
Basically it´s when Steve . O or weeman is sleeping use a stun baton in their asses , I think will be funny.
Fill a rooms floor with butter or something slippery and race through it with everyone. Play dodge ball in a gym with butter all over the floor.
STEP 1: chose member of jackass crew to do this prank (it would be funny to johnny do this its a perfect prank for him)STEP 2: after mber is chosen dress him like adolf hitler and have him stand in a public square or park and pose like hitler did
Go up to an animal and slap it in the face or pull out its ball hair! Stupid yes ...funny yes lol
So as we all know, everyone in Jackass likes to dress up like old men, and ITS FUNNY!! Also, we have all seen crossdressers that clearly are not women. So, lets have all the Jackass guys dress like really bad crossdressers (Im taling like beards and goatees with mini skirts) and walk around trying to hit on guys, it would be hilarious.
like my other one dress up like a girl in a bikini but dont shave your legs and were a bikini bottom so it shows the shape of your ding dong and everyone will be staring at you and point it will be funny
