Battlefield 3 immersive simulator – The Gadget Show
Published on: October 25, 2011 Comments Off
Wow. Wow, wow, wow, wow! Forget your indoor swimming pools, your flash cars, basements converted into home cinemas and all the other traditional trappings of multi-millionaire’s home from an episode of MTV Cribs, if I had the space and the money I’d build one of these.
A fully immersive gaming rig. Omnidirectional moving treadmill to let you walk around for real. Game driven lighting and surround sound. 180 degree floor to ceiling video screen. Motion sensing crouch / jump controls. In hand gun controls for both weapons and viewing. And it shoots back at you for real.
Well done The Gadget Show.

Snoop Dogg. A Welshman who grows enormous veg. A Wales Rugby World Cup 2011 shirt (on Snoop Dogg). I genuinely laughed out loud watching this.
RIP Steve Jobs. Thank you for inspiring me. Thank you for inspiring us all

Remember the self-lacing futuristic Nike trainers that Marty McFly wore in Back to the future 2? 22 years since the film it looks like you’ll shortly be able to buy your very own pair.

VW Mini Vader ad Greenpeace follow up – Join the rebellion
Published on: June 28, 2011 Comments Off
Remember the VW advert I posted a while back? No? Refresh your memory here: Pint sized Darth Vader Volkswagen advert
Well Greenpeace have gone and had a stab at VW’s green record by doing their own version of the ad and casting the brand as the evil Empire. Quite clever really. They have a group of pint sized rebellion Star Wars characters including Princess Leia, Lando Calrissian, Chewbacca, C3PO, R2D2 and Yoda all turning up to try and stop VW and their mini Vader.
Check it out below.
Oh, and did you spot the nice reference to Leia’s first encounter with Chewie in the movies?
UPDATE The video has been pulled from YouTube after a complaint from LucasFilm, but you can still see it here:

Predator the musical

Film 4 had a Predator night on Friday, the original Predator was on at 9pm followed by the not as good Predator 2 straight after.
I love Predator. It’s classic Arnie. It’s classic ’80′s action /SCI FI and a great fun movie. But, as I watched it I couldn’t stop thinking about this YouTube gem:
Predator: The Musical. Genius.
(There is a little bit of bad language mixed in there so it’s a little NSFW just so you know…)
