Transformers Zippo lighters for the nicotine geek
I rarely see otakus and geeks who smoke but if it’s all for looking geeky and smokin’ at the same time, then these Transformer Zippo lighters are surely worth the take. Probably would appeal to both Transformer fans, Zippo fans, and those looking for the next flashy thing to striking matches on your boot. These Transformer Zippos come in either black and shiny metal and only 300 units will be sold for each color. Talk...
Dungeons & Dragons creator passes away
The news isn’t necessarily sugoi, but we have to pay tribute to a man who made life as a geek even more bearable and enjoyable. The 69 year-old Gary Gygax succumed to health problems that had afflicted him for the past six years (which initially prompted me to entitle this post “D&D creator dies at 69”). If the name Gary Gygax isn’t familiar (which means you’re not too geeky enough), perhaps Dungeons...
Marvel, EA split up
This news isn’t so new, but I believe it’s worth posting anyway. In 2004, Electronic Arts had a partnership deal with Marvel Comics, which gave rise to the “cross-over” beat-’em-up/fighting game Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects. To me, at least, the game didn’t sell that good, and it has a share of fairly bad reviews. Summer of last year, Marvel and EA announced to create a fighting game...
Video: LEGO Batman: The Video Game trailer
Remember that LEGO Star Wars? Quite interesting wasn’t it? Especially if you’re a fan of both LEGO and Star Wars. Then how about this? LEGO Batman. Yahoo! For a guy who asked for nothing else but LEGO sets for Christmas (yes, I am a retard), and a Batman fan at that, this is just a treat. And while it coincides with the year the new Batman movie will be coming out, this doesn’t really relate to the movie’s...
Video: New Iron Man trailer
Okay. So I was definitely sure that we wouldn’t be posting YouTube videos as often as we did last for the past year. But hey, this is the new 2:30-ish trailer of the new Iron Man movie. And by God, it is a must watch. Can’t wait for it to hit the cinemas. It features a heck of a lot – the suit, the plot teaser, and they whanged a perfectly good Ford Shelby Cobra. Goddamn rich people. I say Robert Downey Jr. is the...
Batman is dead, buried in Portland
Who would have thought that Gotham City’s one true hero will be buried elsewhere in the world? For a hero such as Batman, you’d expect some really fancy mausoleum with a statue or something like that. Or at least you could expect Bruce Wayne to be buried in a swanky grave near his parents. But no. If the source isn’t joking or if this isn’t some Photoshopped scam, then Batman is buried as Batman at the...
