Nancy Drew: The Haunting of Castle Malloy

Looks spooky. A good mystery is just what one needs for Halloween.

From: HerInteractiveGames

Unveil a Ghostly Legend and Find a Vanished Groom!

Touted as the most romantic event to grace the ruined halls of Ireland's Castle Malloy, the Simmons-Mallory wedding was supposed to be a fairytale beginning, more...but now the groom is missing! Did a banshee crash the wedding or is this a case of cold feet? Can you, as Nancy Drew, unravel the knot of scattered clues and scary superstitions? You'll need to catch more than a bridal bouquet to make this a happily ever after!

Batman Gets Pwned

Batman can fight crime, but he sure is bad at video games.

From: barelypolitical

Throw the Batarang, dammit! Batman is too busy playing Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe to fight crime.

Dante's Inferno

This looks like a good video game to play around Halloween time. However, it is not planned to be released until January 2010.

From Wikipedia:

Dante's Inferno is an upcoming third-person Hack and Slash video game to be published by Electronic Arts and in development by Visceral Games (formerly EA Redwood Shores).[2] The game is loosely based on the canticle of the same name from Dante Alighieri's epic poem Divine Comedy.

Grabbed by the Ghoulies

A good Halloween video game is Grabbed by the Ghoulies. It came out a few years ago for the original Xbox, and I don't know if it is still available. Here's a walkthrough.

From: peteypiranha128

The first part of a Let's Play Grabbed by the Ghoulies series I hope to start up. It's the first LP I've ever made, so If there is any suggestions, please post them. I kinda have a bad set up, so I am trying to make it better. If you want to stay tuned to the Let's Play, don't forget to subscribe!

ALSO, I know there is some double sound, that's because the Mic I used to record my voice picked up some of the TV. That's why I have to get a better mic that doesnt pick up other sounds.



Here are some other parts of the game.

Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5

There are more parts to the game. You can see them all at: www.youtube.com.

Super Mario Rescues The Princess

So, what does happen when Mario finally rescues the Princess? Maybe something like this...

From: SethComedy

Mario finally overcomes his enemy and rescues the woman he has been fighting to save. Too bad the princess is not impressed by what she sees.

Soulcalibur Legends

I picked up Soulcalibur Legends for the Wii the other day. It's okay, but not as good as the rest of the series. But, at least I get to swing the Wii Controller around to fight! I hope that they release Soulcalibur IV for the Wii later this year.

I found a walkthrough for the game. If I get stuck, I will use it.

Soulcalibur Legends on the Nintendo Wii: Walkthrough, Part 1

This edition of the Soulcalibur Legends walkthrough will focus on getting you through the beginning aspects of the game. After a few minutes of play time, you will soon defeat your first boss and be that much closer to the end.

Giant NES Controller Coffee Table

I like this. A coffee table and game controller in one! You can read a detailed description of how he made it (as well as other video game related projects his done) on his blog: www.ultra-awesome.blogspot.com.

From: khdownes1

A while ago I decided I was running out of room for many many videogames and their boxes etc. (I'm one of those fanatics who insists on having everything with original boxes).

So I built this, to replace my current coffee table, it has space inside it to store game boxes etc.

Made from MDF and painted with a variety of oil based and acrylic paints.



And here’s another one.

Cool Video Game Accessory

If only we could buy this. If we could, however, it would cost way too much money. But I can dream, can’t I?

Festo Industrial Automation has created a prototype of a seat for video games to give full motion while driving.



More information: http://www.autoblog.com

This kind of motion reminds of the simulator rides they have, where the seats move. An example of one of the rides is here: Devils Mine Ride.wmv

BioShock is Out!

BioShock is the "genetically enhanced" first person shooter that lets you do things never before possible in the genre: turn everything into a weapon, biologically mod your body with plasmids, hack devices and systems, upgrade your weapons and craft new ammo variants, and experiment with different battle techniques in an incredible and unique underwater city.

You are a cast-away in Rapture, an underwater Utopia torn apart by civil war. Caught between powerful forces, and hunted down by genetically modified “splicers” and deadly security systems, you have to come to grips with a deadly, mysterious world filled with powerful technology and fascinating characters. No encounter ever plays out the same, and no two gamers will play the game the same way.

BioShock is loaded with some of greatest, most modifiable weapons to ever blast their way into a shooter. But guns alone won’t be enough to defeat the devious AIs of Rapture. There are literally hundreds of other strategies players can use to take out his enemies. Here’s just a few things you can do a foe:

· Catch his Grenades in Mid Air and Toss Them Back at Him
· Freeze Him Solid and Shatter Him with Smack of your Wrench
· Lead him and his comrades to water and Zap them all with 1000 Volts
· Burn Him Up With Home-Made Molotov Cocktails
· Booby Trap Healing Machines and Watch Them Blow up IN his Face
· Brainwash Him to Become Your Personal BodyGuard
· Invent your own Ammo Types to Prey on his Vulnerabilities
· Turn his own Security System Against Him
· Light Him on Fire and Launch Heat Seeking Missiles At him
· Torment Him with Plagues of Insects
· Take Research Photos of Him to Learn his Weaknesses
· Send Him Flying into the Ceiling to Knock him Senseless

No encounter ever plays out the same way twice. No two gamers will ever play BioShock the same way.


The game is for the PC and the Xbox 360.

Omni-Directional Treadmill

Virtual Space Devices, Inc. has developed an omni-directional treadmill (ODT).

Virtual Space Devices, Inc. has developed omni-directional treadmill (ODT) technology over the last 10 years, working primarily with the US Army. Combining the infinite plane of the ODT with an immersive virtual reality system permits an immersant to walk or run freely through the digital landscape. Navigation is transparent and natural. Immersion is total.

The ODT surface is flat and continuous. It is not a bowl or made of discrete plates. The infinite surface is motion-slaved to the user’s motion with tight control and no inertial residue. Belts that comprise the surface are substantially similar to those used in conventional treadmills.

This would be cool for virtual reality games. And a good way to get exercise!
