Odd that I just started running maths blaster plus (the precursor to the one shown) with the second graders (and a few advanced first graders) in media class...

Well, the only games I would play on my GBA have been re-released for DS (MegaMan Zero) and I've got a RetroN 3 and a Super GameBoy so let me know when a RetroN comes out that supports N64.

Well, that's sad. I'd all but forgotten that game. First one I was able to get into during closed beta in a long time.

Personally, it's my Stan Lee autographed Daredevil vol 1 (1964) #6. My film team, on the other hand, has a HUGE collection of geeky props and whatnot that make that look as normal as a celery stick.

My two best friends worked for Turbine up until last week after working on DDO for more than a year. Both were expecting it but it still felt pretty gross when it finally happened. I'm proud of them though, both have interviews with another company in the next week!

Torn between Rakdos and Izzet and can only afford to hit one prerelease event. Probably leaning towards Rakdos right now but that may change.

I have a bunch that I watch over and over. Firefly, My Family, Futurama, Arrested Development, Scrubs, Spaced, and Spin City are probably the most prominent.

My digital arts class a few years ago actually took the time to research it. Here's a summary of what we discovered. 3D films are, in a literal sense, a 2D projection on a 2D plane. The image is rendered in such a way that when coupled with, for lack of a better term, an optical illusion, the...

A couple of sales receipts and a D20. Oh and my wallet.

Forgive me Batman but: I think that Skyrim sucked. I've never bought a game console first-hand. I think MineCraft is dumb (maybe not the best example but my students make me FEEL like it's a sin). I liked the ending to Mass Effect 3. I've never seen Battlestar Galactica. I've never...

probably either Spiderman 3 or Phantom Menace.

If I wanted to hear a bugs bunny cartoon copulating with early 90's AOL, I'd fire up my old dial-up modem and Boomerang Network. BUT: I am a fan of music in general and anything that gets people listening to music of any variety is cool by me. As I often do, I'll paraphrase the band Chumbawamba...

Leader: Sorin Markov (Magic: The Gathering) Heavy Weapons: Space Marine Devastator (Warhammer 40,000) Stealth: Batman (Arkham City) Sniper: Garrus (Mass Effect) Close Quarters: Barbarian (Diablo II) Medic: The Todd (Scrubs) Air Support: That guy from Independence Day ("HELLO BOYS! I'M...

This is what I'm worried about too. LEGO's target demo is the 7-14 range. While the upper portion of that range is probably old enough to appreciate Firefly, I don't see it as appealing to the majority of the target demo. While I'd love to see this become a reality (hell, I'd be first in line to...

This pretty much summarizes my thoughts to a T. I just have to wonder how they'd compete with the big three WITHOUT doing something of this nature. I have students who are always asking me why they can't play Skyrim on their cheep desktops and this COULD pose an affordable solution. (Likewise...
