A Classic Video

If you haven't seen Digital Ph33r's "Master Chief Sucks at Halo" video (where have you been?) here's your chance to see it for the first time, or see it for the twentieth. Oh, and it's probably NSFW.

Be an Iron Chef

It seems that an Iron Chef game will be coming to Wii and DS this summer. This reeks of those leftovers that you thought you ate but really got pushed to the back of the fridge. Expect a lot of cheese, and I don't mean as the "secret ingredient."

Check out the full story here.

A Rant

So after almost a year of using my Motorola Razr cell phone, it finally went kaput. For the past few weeks I've been using my sister-in-law's old Razr and a few days ago, it went kaput as well. So I had no choice but to purchase a new cell phone. I got it in a few days ago and, being the nerd I am, started looking through all of its features and eventually came to the Games. I scroll through the list of games and one word keeps repeating itself: "Demo." What happened to the days when your phone at least came with one full version of a game? I think the last time was Snake. I'm shelling out a lot of cash for your phone, I think the least you could do was give me the full version of Texas Hold 'Em. Boo cell phone companies! Boo!

Advanced Halo Screenshots




After seeing some pretty cool Halo screenshots here created by El Burritoh at Tied the Leader, I decided to try some of my own. These shots are made of several separate screenshots that were churned through some software to "stitch" them together. While they didn't turn out as well, I think they were a good first attempt. I used the Canon PhotoStitch software that came with my Canon digital camera. For the most part it did a good job, although there are definitely places where you can see where the seams are and where the images didn't quite overlap well. If you want to learn more about this technique, check it out here.
