Herd of Cats

Mac version = kitty.sit?

Vibration motors in the triggers!

The Xbox team meticulously analyzed the Xbox 360 controller for areas to innovate, and conducted 20 research studies around the world with more than 500 participants of all ages, genders and gaming proficiencies to validate every proposed improvement. Some innovations were small. Others were substantial. By the end, after 200 prototypes, the team was confident the culmination of their efforts was a controller that was still distinctly Xbox, but refined and improved.

More details after the break.

Where do I sign?

Coxxorz is ordering this Saints Row 4 special edition as soon as he sees the Dubstep Doomsday Button. I, being more restrained, am ordering it because of 12" Dubstep Gun Replica with laser and sound.

Ha, Ha, just kidding. It's totally the button.

We should get this guy to write for the site.

More Zombies! Although I haven't bought it as Rolly won't share his MS points

There is a demo available.

Despite generally poor weather we did manage to get to the beach during our cottage week

This Masterpiece was built by Ethan and is not the first sandcastle to earn its way onto the site.

Dubious AI for enemy guards

Some of the missions in Far Cry 3 have you infiltrating pirate held areas. Sometimes it is harder than others.

That is my hang glider exactly where I crashed it. Directly on top of the lookout I needed to eliminate.

Or photo caption contest? You decide.

We did not get away with it

Despite how much we tried to blame Stormblade they still threw us out and took our names for something called a "Black List." I hope that is just like Santa's Nice List.

Graybush's cat

I know this is Graybush's cat because he (the cat) already had his own beer and is now stealing Graybush's. Damn barn cats!

All official like with SeanMCR doing it...

Well, after 4 hours with the OUYA

So, basically, the Ouya is an android phone with an HDMI output and connects to a bluetooth controller. I knew this. However, the developers did tout the added graphics performance they would have, more RAM, etc, etc. Makes no difference. You are playing phone games on your TV, on a device that's not much more powerful than the latest Android phone. That's it.

You can download a SNES emulator and search the web for old SNES ROMS, you can root your Ouya (why you'd want to do that is a little beyond me). It's android. It's open source. You can do a lot with the OS on the device... however, you're still limited to the devices capabilities which suck donkey balls. Cute little box, but it has the graphics output of a 10 year old ATI card. No getting around that. I wasn't expecting Xbox 360 or anything but some of the games on my iPhone look better and move smoother.

No fire this time

While meaning to post my previous solo ride on Marineland's Dragon Mountain (back in 2011) I never did. This despite writing it and having pictures available.

Let's just say this wasn't my first solo ride on Dragon Mountain and my last ride ended with a fire in the engine room. Apparently they needed more power.

YouTube seems to think my original video is shaky. No S**t. I had a bruise on my arm for a week from where I braced the camera.

PS- I was the only person on the ride for this run.
