Before GenCon 2008, we were contacted to check out the Entropia Universe booth during the show. There, we met with John Bates of Mindark, who explained to us all about Entropia Universe, the online game/virtual world. Bartoneus and I went into the interview knowing almost nothing about it, but we both agreed afterward that it’s […]

I’ve never gotten the streaming video to work on […]

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.
