155 Oldskool Video Game-Ads - an ein paar davon kann ich mich sogar noch erinnern. Vergleicht das mal mit den heutigen Screenshots, bei denen man kaum noch zwischen Realität und Spiel unterscheiden kann. Beispiel: Projekt Gotham Racing 3

The Model Vs. Photographer series was created during a period of modest desperation. I had nobody available who was willing to model, but I wanted to keep moving ahead with cranking out images. While sitting around pondering this, I was struck by the idea that it would be hilarious if I would mimic the poses of models I had previously shot.
Ob Terry Donovan wirklich ein Eye-Candy für`s weibliche Geschlecht ist lasse ich mal dahingestellt, aber zumindest hat er anscheinend Humor.

Bei Cinema Strikes Back gibt`s zwei neue High Quality Screens aus "V for Vendetta" - der Film, auf den ich mich am meisten dieses Jahr freue. Erste Review-Schnippsel hören sich auf jeden Fall hervorragend an:
I saw “V for Vendetta” back in December and it’s easy to see why so many are predicting this film will be the most controversial and talked about film of 2006. If this film was Mike Tyson, it bit off my ear and knocked me down several times … and all the while telling a modern Shakespearean revolutionary tale.
Viele weitere Strips gibt`s bei Gegen den Strich
Wieder mal ein Mashup-Sampler mit zum Teil recht obskuren Mixes:

...passend zum Thema: When Playing an MMORPG Becomes a Job
You play World of Warcraft, night after night, going on quest after quest, killing monster after monster and then it happens. You finally reach the pinnacle of power ... level 60! Finally! Your days of endless grinding and running the level treadmill are over! Or so you thought ... oh no, once you get to level 60 your work really begins!
In dem aktuellen "The Escapist" Online-Mag geht`s diesmal um das Thema Spielesucht. Besonders lesenwert für alle Hardcore-Zocker out there (zu denen ich mich (leider?) auch zählen darf) sind die Artikel "Despite all our games" und "One Fateful Semester".
Despite all our games, we're still just rats in a cage, mashing levers and taking pellets or mashing the space bar and gaining levels. On its own, this isn't particularly harmful, but some grow to enjoy the pleasure surge of accomplishment more than they enjoy anything else. Studies have shown, if every press of the lever gives the rat a jolt of pleasure, he'll keep mashing the lever until he's completely exhausted. Some gamers get caught in a Skinner box of their own design, and keep leaping on the lever until their only friends have guild tags after their name and the whole house smells funny.
Über 3700 Movie Title Screenshots sind schon recht beachtlich...
Doing this has given me a great appreciation for title designs and the effect they can sometimes have on a movie. And since I had all these images, I thought why not share them?
Einen wirklich sehr schön recherchierten XBox 360-Kaufbericht gibt es bei Something Awful zu lesen:
The Xbox 360 comes in two flavors. There is the core system, which comes with the console itself and a letter that says, "FUCK YOU". We opted for the premium bundle which comes with a wireless controller, a remote control, an Ethernet cable, all the cables needed to hook the system up, and the system itself, sometimes.
If there is a cat inside instead of an Xbox don't worry. This is a known issue. Simply call 1-800-4-MY-XBOX and Microsoft will replace your system at no cost to you. We had to go through this three times before we got a working unit.
