On moving forward…
Caught this tidbit from the mind (and fingers) of Jon Rosenberg: I am thinking about ramping up the pace of Goats a bit and seeing how fast I can rocket towards the conclusion. As much as I am enjoying building things up and exploring the details of the Goats multiverse I think there is only […]
TMNT: 27% on RottenTomatoes.com
I’m taking my nephew and older son to see the new all-CGI TMNT movie tomorrow. Now, I’m beginning to think: is this a good idea? Meh. I’m not expecting 300 here. This is just a movie featuring four mutated amphibians fighting crime as mystical ninjas. It’s purely a popcorn flick. And it will be fun […]
Red Steel – a mini-review
In a Wii-related rant I posted last month, I trashed the Ubisoft launch title Red Steel. I referred to the game as “half-assed”. In all honesty, at that point, I hadn’t even touched the game. I was in no position to call it anything, really. So, when I signed up for a GamezNFlix membership, Red […]
OurXNA
Someone over at Evil Avatar is collecting developers at a location called OurXNA. The site is dedicated to discussing XNA development of Xbox LIVE Arcade games. I have no programming skills to speak of, beyond HTML, CSS, and some limited javascript, so I unfortunately can’t provide any useful services. Or can I? See the logo […]
No good will come of this…
In one corner: Dave Kellet of Sheldon. After pleasantries were exchanged, they threw down the gauntlet: Would I, they wanted to know, be cartoonist enough to accept a challenge? A week of competition between our two strips, where we’d both have to write six days of material on some everyday, innocuous, uninspiring subject matter? Say…plastic […]
Super Mario Trombones
Being a trombone player in high school, as well as an enormous Super Mario fan, this entertained me enormously.
Productivity: IMified and 30boxes
I had never even heard of either IMified or 30boxes until I saw a demonstration of both provided by Scoble (actually, it’s courtesy of Erica, but Scoble videoed it). Now I’m using both, and absolutely loving them. 30boxes is essentially a calendering suite. But it’s much more than that. It’s faster and sleeker then Google […]
Ficlets: making mini-fiction into a social app
This. Is. Brilliant. John Scalzi has announced the creation of Ficlets, which is basically a social app consisting entirely of collaborative short fiction. And it is a phenomenal idea. At the very heart of the concept is what we’ve been trying to do over at the Evil Avatar Writer’s Guild. Which is concentrate writing into […]
Nintendo to use tin cans and a string for Wii online
I don’t know. I’m not sure what to think about this. LOS ANGELES –(Business Wire)– GameSpy, a unit of Fox Interactive Media, announced today that it will provide multiplayer technology to game publishers developing titles for Nintendo’s Wii(TM) video game system. As part of an ongoing partnership with Nintendo, GameSpy has developed middleware technology to […]
