YouTube of the Week: Get Your Higgs Boson Edition

August 5, 2008 by Dave

By popular demand (from joshx0rfz), it’s the Large Hadron Collider Rap. You can sing this as it consumes the universe (or not.)

YouTube of the Week: I am the niiiiiiiiight Edition

July 29, 2008 by Dave

A funny/strange video of singing along to the Batman theme. I predict you will either love this or hate this.

YouTubes of the Week: The Conchords are Flying

July 22, 2008 by Bartoneus

Wait, you might be saying, we’ve got some Bartoneus in your YouTubes of the Week?  Oh noes!  I can’t just sit back and let Dave do all of the work, after all, he did travel quite a bit over the weekend and deserves a break.  Just this once.  Besides, I simply must share something which […]

YouTubes of the Week Versus the Zombies Edition

July 15, 2008 by Dave

Two videos featuring some unlikely zombie killers. The first, the trailer for the movie Chanbara Beauty, sent to me by the Chatty DM who claims to have seen the movie and still has his eyes intact. The second, a music video featuring Gorbachev as Conan fighting zombies, which was first featured by Amber Night.

I can’t hold off any longer: Rock Band 2 is coming

July 9, 2008 by Dave

I wanted to wait for some more concrete information to come out of E3 next week, but I can’t hold back any longer: Rock Band 2 is coming this September. (Well, Xbox 360 and PS2 is September, PS3 and Wii later in the year.) Presumably, this is to try and head off Guitar Hero 4‘s […]

Doctor Horrible – Joss Whedon, Nathan Fillion, and.. Doogie Howser?

July 3, 2008 by Vince

The mind behind Buffy and Firefly, the Actors behind Captain Tightpants and Doogie Howser, and god knows who else, have come together to bring the internet a free mini-series. Well, free at first. Go to www.drhorrible.com on July 15th for Act 1, 17th for Act 2, and 19th for Act 3. They will remain free […]

YouTubes of the Week: D&D Classics Edition

June 10, 2008 by Dave

I’m sure most gamers have seen or heard all of these before, but hey, what better time than a new edition to showcase these? The first one is the “summoner geeks” version of the Dead Ale Wives first D&D skit. Then a performance of Stephen Lynch’s song about D&D. Finally, the music video to Flashlight […]

Inquisition of the Week: Musical Tastes

April 21, 2008 by Dave

You have spoken that the Warlord is the class you are most looking forward to in fourth edition! If only there was a way for you to get a significant preview of what the Warlord will be like. Oh wait, there is! The Warlock came in second (either because it’s the other new class, or […]

Paizo’s 3.75

March 19, 2008 by Dave

Paizo announced yesterday that they will be sticking with their own re-branded version of Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 for their popular (and well made) Pathfinder series. The Pathfinder RPG will serve as the core book, which will update the 3.5 D&D Rules. You can even download the nice-looking Alpha document from Paizo’s site now. After […]

Rock Band and Portal: Two Great Tastes Together

February 22, 2008 by Dave

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 […]
