Domestic Revolution/I Have A Writable, Erasable Desk

I have a new desk! It's about time because since I've moved into my new house the spare bedroom has basically been a huge closet. Now I can finally use the space for work. Mario from Triple A Cosplay took my desk concept, and was a huge help in construction. Check it out:

Axe Cop at Wondercon 2011

WONDERCON 2011! I patrolled the show floor today as my current favorite comic character, Axe Cop. CHOP!

 

First Real Six-String/Fender Squier for Rock Band 3 Hands-On

Ever since wannabe shredders picked up plastic toy guitars to play Guitar Hero, the legitimacy of music games has been in question. What's the benefit? Why not play a real instrument? I always feel like I have to point out that video game guitar and real guitar are totally different, separate skills. With the Fender Squier for Rock Band 3, the line has not simply been blurred - it is erased. I have begun to learn the way of a six-string samurai.

Everyone Report To The Dance Floor/Dance Central

With the release of the Kinect controller for Xbox 360 came its flagship release, Dance Central by Harmonix. The developer that wanted to turn gamers into musicians now wants us to get our backs up off the wall.

Ümloud 2010

Ümloud! One of my favorite events from 2009 returned for 2010 and it was better than ever. I'm confident in saying "better" because this year my friends and I took the stage as Supercollider. The experience was well worth it. We all had a blast, and the event raised more than $11,000 for the Child's Play Charity. Supercollider is myself, James, Rick, Mario, and Alice. Bask for a moment in our awsomeness. Big thanks to Tyler Winegarner photography for the images.

The Future Is Bangin'!

I'm going to see Tron Legacy this weekend, and lately I've been thinking about how many science fiction movies, or just nerdy movies feature a girl with black bangs. Check out Olivia Wilde with her black-banged bob:

/love. You Love BlizzCon

I'm putting up today's post with the assumption that it's not too late to talk about BlizzCon. Just like it's never too late to start playing StarCraft or World of Warcraft, BlizzCon has remained topical in my circle of gamer friends months after the fact. Now with the glow of Cataclysm peaking over the horizon, it seems that 2010 has been an excellent year to be a fan of Blizzard.
