Steampunk smartphone
Richard Clarkson, aka @Clarkson_Rich, has designed this simply stunning steampunk phone. He calls it a “rotary mechanical smartphone” and I can see why. Clarkson writes that he wanted to include more feeling and life into our digital technology. I think he’s succeeded. Don’t you?
Will social games save the Wii U?
I don’t have a blu-ray player; I have a PlayStation 3. I don’t yet have a tablet. I wonder if in a year’s time I’ll be able to say; “I don’t have a tablet. I have a Wii U”? So far the Wii U has generated a lot of blog chat but it’s not impressed […]
Alice: Madness Returns fan made trailer of dooooom!
We have the offical Alice: Madness Returns trailer over here. It’s not bad at all. It’s hard to capture sinister creepy in just a few minutes. That’s why this fan made trailer for Spicy Horse‘s highly anticipated game is all that much more impressive. It’s really quiet sinister. Watch out for the syringe that has […]
Princess Leia, R2-D2 and C-3PO appear in Raiders of the Lost Ark
Have you heard the urban myth that C-3PO, Princess Leia and R2-D2 appear in Raiders of the Lost Ark? It’s not a myth. They do feature. In fact, there’s a lot connecting the two films beyond the fact that the scene in which Rene Belloq and the Nazis square off against Indiana in the canyon […]

Batman Live’s Batmobile
The Batmobile was revealed to a select team of geek journalists today. Geek Native wasn’t invited! No. The only conclusion this blogger can make is that the invite was lost in the post and that DC and the Batman Live team will try very hard to make up for the disappointment in some goodiebag shaped […]
Google puts the blood moon in your phone
There will be a blood moon tonight – a total lunar eclipse. It will be a long one too, lasting for about 100 minutes, that’s the longest since the year 2000. The ecplise starts at about 6:20pm BST (for UK readers) and about 11:20am PDT (for US readers) but, of course, there’s a catch. In […]
