This is just a dump of my notes from the Seminar, which I’ll be editing when I get a chance! 9:38- Laptop set up in the Potomac room. The room is maybe ¾ capacity, in a fairly inefficient banquet table format. 9:40- Danny returns with “What you need to know about D&D 4th edition […]
YouTube of the Week: Spokesmonster Edition
These cartoons put out by Wizards have been around for a few months now, but I only just found them on YouTube. They’re better than I would have thought, though not without some cheesiness.
Inq. of the Week: Ask the D&D Designers
86% of you are looking forward to seeing my man, The Batman, return to the big screen. 81% of you are looking forward to our favorite whip-wielding, snake-fearing Archaeologist returning for another adventure. Sorry Wachowski Brothers, only 14% of our readers are going to take a ride on the Mach 5, the lowest out of […]
Sneak Attack!
One more significant preview of 4e D&D has been released before a lot more is given away at the D&D Experience. The entire Rogue class has been posted for your amusement/derision. Just a few things that stood out to me: No more rolling for hit points. You get a fixed amount at first level, and […]
Fantasy Flight Games Continues Fantasy/Sci-Fi Domination by Partnering with Games Workshop
This is a pretty big deal. To back up a second… Games Workshop has recently been working on consolidating their product line down to their core, while expanding their line of retail shops. This means they were focusing their efforts on selling Warhammer Fantasy Battles, Warhammer 40k, and Lord of the Rings. However, they did […]
Rock Band and Portal: Two Great Tastes Together
Around these parts, Portal has seen a slight insurgence, thanks to me lending Bartoneus and Sucilaria The Orange Box. I actually had to get them to shut it down at a party last Saturday so that I could feed my Rock Band addiction and caterwaul through my rendition of Ballroom Blitz. This actually allowed them […]
“TETSUO!” “TITANIC!”
Did not see that one coming… Leonardo DiCaprio is set to produce a live-action version of anime classic Akira. Technology may have finally caught up to the point where doing live-action Akira is more feasible than it once was. But how faithful will it be to the original? Who will direct? Will DiCaprio take a […]
Finished the format war has
Toshiba announced today it would stop making HD-DVD equipment. Since they were the primary backer of the format, I think it’s safe to say the HD-DVD format is dead in the water, and the Blu-Ray emerges victorious… …Except I don’t think I know anyone who owns either one, except for those that happen to be […]
YouTube of the Week: Yakety Trap Edition
Some Benny Hill jokes… why not? The second one I found via Graham.
Let the selling out begin
Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is due out in June. This confirms rumors that Guitar Hero is releasing a few versions focusing around one band per game (though the initial rumor was U2.) Are there really big enough Aerosmith fans who want to buy a whole game of their stuff? Why isn’t this just extra downloadable content […]
