    303: How Games Get Zombies Wrong

    To my mind both dead rising games implemented the points in the article. In both games the zombie outbreak is caused by humans. In the beginning of the first game the survivors are doing fine until the old lady tries to get to her poodle. And in the second game there are multiple points where...

    BBC and the licence fee - a good thing?

    As a German living in england I can assure you that the guys from tvlicensing are far less annoying than their german equivalent from the GEZ (I get a letter every year telling me to register a TV - would be nice if they'd assume that I let them know by myself once I get one) From my point of...

    Inception

    There are many hints which could point to everything being a dream. The totem point doesn't apply because it is not his totem. Why are his children in the exact same position, wearing exactly the same clothes? Why couldn't he just turn sideways when he was running inbetween the walls which...

    Rumor: Hackers Crack PS3 Copy Protection

    Just to give an update: The usb-dongle creates a backup option in the PS3 menu and allows the user to copy games onto the PS3 harddrive or an external harddrive (unless the game has files which are bigger than 4gb) The manufacturer states that it works with the recent firmware but might not work...

    Rumor: Hackers Crack PS3 Copy Protection

    I think one of the reasons the PS3 got hacked last was actually the ability to run linux from the start. Most of the Wii mods are based on the homebrew channel which was developed to run linux on the Wii ( the Chaos Computer Club made some interesting videos about the developement of the...

    If you could take one weapon from any game and use it in another game...

    Any gun from dead space in mortal kombat 2. Just because your opponent is a halfdragon doesn't mean he should be allowed to use 4 arms.

    'Tis the Season

    May parents basically got everything they need so I usually end up making something myself for them. Like painting a picture. My brother gets stuff that I would get for myself but can't bring myself to buy. Last year it was a LED messageboards for the USB port. My housemates are going to get...

    Poll: What would be the most EFFECTIVE vehicle to use during a zombie apocolypse?

    I'm going with the boat idea. But I'd pick an aircraft carrier. Pretty much a now brainer. It's a swimming fortress(see Rivet city in Fallout3) loads of room for supplies (including bikes of course) and fellow survivors and almost endless entertainment if you're into blasting zombies into bits...

    Poll: The History of lost socks

    My solution for the problem is to have only black socks which all look the same. So everytime I find a single sock I can convince myself that I haven't lost a sock but gained one because the socks breed in the washing machine.
