Awesome music video Starring yours Truly...

Amongst other gaming geeks.

Like, for example, this one of the more recent PSP Go.



I think this is great as it clearly and concisly shows how to take apart modern electro… Continue

I'd be hard pressed to remember what they are by name, what they look like, or even what platform they're on. I vaguely remember one where it tweeted th… Continue

2001, a space oddysey/earache



This is an attempt at "Also sprach Zarathustra" By the "Pourtsmouth sinfonia", who had an odd requirement. to be Part of it you had to " be either non-musicians, or if a musician, play an instrument that was entirely new to them"

it started a goof in 1970 but gathered a cult following and continued to gather and perform till 1979, even playing the Royal Albert hall in London in 1974.

I think this… Continue
