Will OnLive Be The Next Phase Of Video Gaming?

As I keep reading about OnLive, and watch videos of it in action I think back to a very insightful quote: "No matter what the level of your ability, you have more potential than you can ever develop in a lifetime.” - James T Mccay

New Ghostbusters Trailer Revives The 6 Year Old In Me

I enjoyed many different franchises from the mid-late 80's, but there was one that trumped them all. Ghostbusters. I had a tape of Ghostbusters that I honestly watched about 100-200 times. Just ask my parents if you don't believe me. They can quote every line from the movie, just from being around while I was mesmerized by Stay-Puft.

It’s Mark Hammill’s Birthday! Celebrate with his Star Wars audition tape, Kurt Russell and Cocknocker!

In watching these two videos, I find myself wondering what it would be like to be Mark Hammill and Kurt Russell at the time these were recorded.  That's a world where no one had ever heard of Star Wars and Lucas was this guy that made a passable film about cruising around in the 50s.

Crazy guy communes with Aliens for a televised interview.  Makes interviewer feel his energy-beam induced chest sweat

I like aliens.  I've never met an alien I didn't like actually.  Until I saw this guy.  He qualifies for both an alien I don't like and the first alien I've ever met, so I guess I've totally struck out. Here's a guy who claims he is channeling aliens via an energy beam directly to his hairy, slightly repugnant sweaty chest.  The very same chest he then makes an interviewer feel to confirm the alien-beam sweat.

Mind Rot: A Video Game Addict or an Obsessive Personality?

Mind Rot: A Video Game Addict or an Obsessive Personality?

In this recent article at Bohemian.com, Gabriel Fransisco describes a lifestyle lost to an overwhelming obsession with video games. But is this attempt at a heart-wrenching anecdote evidence of the addictive nature of video games, or is it evidence of a man with an obsessive personality who has the uncanny ability (or curse) of overwhelming focus on his personal goals? My own positive relationship with video games provides a stark contrast with Gabriel's self-destructive obsession.

So you’re riding your mountain bike down a volcano at 107MPH.  What happens when your bike vanishes?  This.

Here's Eric Barone, who broke the world record for speed on a mountain bike a few years back.  Here he's attempting to do it again by running down the side of a volcano in Nicaragua.  His bike was 'specially modified' for this paticular run, which apparently means 'snaps in half'.  When he went by the last speed sensor, he was clocked at 107MPH. Catch the video after the jump.

The Invasion Has Begun: Death Star Spotted Above San Francisco

Initial reports are beginning to leak out of San Francisco that a mysterious object has been seen in the sky, blotting out the stars and staring down ominously at the peaceful inhabitants of The Golden Gate City. An intrepid amateur videographer has posted footage of the mysterious object on Youtube. Star Wars aficionados may recognize the massive moon-like invader as none other than a Death Star - a space station and weapon capable of destroying an entire planet - previously thought to be mere fiction.

Amazing tribute video to John Carpenter’s The Thing – made with GI Joe action figures

Yeah, at first that sounds pretty cheesy.  Once you start watching though you’ll see just how fantastic a job the folks at Zombie Zombie did with the direction, score and action figures.  This isn’t something you and your little brother made over a few hours on a boring Sunday.  This rocks. Combining zombies, action figures [...]
