Some Benny Hill jokes… why not? The second one I found via Graham.
Guitar Hero for Reals?
My wife was kind enough to show me this article about Guitar Rising at Gizmodo, which looks like a great attempt at creating essentially a game based on guitar hero that can actually teach you to play the guitar. The game uses any real guitar hooked up to your sound card, featuring “actual songs” and […]
Inq. of the Week: Are you Ready to Rock?
Good triumphant! That’s what last week’s poll about your favorite alignment determined, with a surprising 74 people thus far weighing in. Neutral Good was the top flavor of good, since most of you hero types believe that Good should not care about Law or Chaos. Second up was the champion of individuality and freedom, Chaotic […]
"A Band of Orcs" Wants to Encounter You
Everybody’s favorite Orcish-themed death/thrash metal band, A Band of Orcs, is holding a contest to see who can write the most brutal encounter involving a band of orcs for D&D. Check it out because the deadline is soon- January 21st. Players in my current D&D game will find that this nicely coincides with an encounter […]
Review: Freezepop "Future Future Future Perfect"
Freezepop isn’t a household band name, but gamers have a greater chance of recognizing their brand of catchy synthpop. The band has contributed songs to a few video games (most notably for bonus tracks in Guitar Hero, Guitar Hero 2, and Rock Band– one of the members of the band works for Harmonix.) They also […]
Inq. of the Week: Pirates Ahoy
As expected, To Hit Armor Class 0 is the best nerd rockband name ever as has been proven conclusively, and I didn’t even have to cheat. On our worldwide tour, Rock Into Mordor can open for us for coming in a respectable second. Various other band names (both real and imagined) all came in with […]
Rock Band First Impressions: The Good, the Bad, and the Clash
After sending DrScotto questing all around Maryland in search of Rock Band last Sunday, he arrived with the large box in tow and laid it at our feet to dig through many boxes, baggies, and instructions. Him, The O, my little brother, and myself rocked out for a few hours that night, each taking a […]
First Impressions: Guitar Hero 3 (Xbox 360)
I strolled right into my local GameStop yesterday and picked up Guitar Hero 3 (game only) for the Xbox 360. (Also grabbed the Orange Box, but resisted Halo 3 for now.) Using my trusty band THAC0, I’d estimate I’ve played through about half of the game on Medium, maybe a little more. I still don’t […]
An Excellent Music Video
I’ll just get it out there right now, I was reading Kanye West’s Blog. Please don’t have any a heartattack yet, but if you haven’t heard his new album Graduation yet you definitely should and then you might understand. The music video here isn’t one of his, though his newest one does have some awesome […]
Sweet Merciful Crap
