video game artist

Was pointed towards Aram Bartholl recently. I studied art at both school and university and never really took to the modern variety. There was some cool stuff being done but in general it didn't interest me. However when it's coupled with video games modern art becomes the best thing ever...

Speed - Bringing Need for Speed into the real world

Top 50 Hasselhoff videos

Unless something amazing happens I need never post another Hasselhoff video again... ever!

Because the chaps over at RagRap have gone and posted the "Top 50 David Hasselhoff Videos".

I must admit I have been going off the Hoff recently so it's unlikely I will mention him again for a while. I know he has loads of fans out there so I'm sure you can find another site to get all your Hoff based news.

Make your own Xbox 360 game

Sony have tried it a couple of times with the Net Yaroze on the original PlayStation and then the Linux dev kit on the PS2 but nether really picked up the way you would imagine.

The idea of going back to gamings routes, with people copying endless reams of code from magazines, not understanding what it means and praying that they will get some sort of enjoyable game out at the end, is enticing.

Okami Preview

Okami has been in development for absolutely ages but it's looking more and more gorgeous. 1up.com has just launched an Okami microsite where they are posting previews and interviews with the developers.

Firefly and Serenity

I have been rather late jumping on the Firefly and Serenity band wagon. I first saw Serenity a while ago and wasn't overly impressed. I wasn't disappointed by any means, but I just didn't "get it". I'm guessing the reason was that I hadn't seen any of the tv shows.

I have now.

Firefly

Recently I bought the Firefly tv series and watched all 14 episodes in the ...

Architecture in Helsinki – Do the Whirlwind

Thumbnail : Architecture in Helsinki – Do the Whirlwind

From Paul Robertson who created the amazing Pirate Baby’s Cabana Battle Street Fight 2006 comes this wonderful new animation. This time a music video for a song by Architecture in Helsinki (never heard of them before) the animation is just as amazing as you'd expect.

I'm loving the pixellated goodness.

Movie Roundup – July 06

About a Boy

A mildly amusing comedy with Hugh Grant, Rachel Weisz, and a few people I have never heard of. It was a lot better than I expected, Hugh Grant plays the same character he always plays and makes a fool of himself more than once. It had a few amusing bits, the best involving feeding the ducks (I didn't know it was that dangerous!).
