How do you screen grab from a Xbox 360?

Before Rabbids – the Rayman Origins
No question; the Rabbids were one of Wii’s most important successes. They had crazy, cute and fun party games that were easy to pick up, laugh at and either put down when the beer ran out or get obsessed by a play all night. That’s gaming perfection. The Rabbids, though, are a spin-off. They came […]

It was based off a Ke$ha song and in addition to the clever tune had some pretty impressive graphics. It’s half a year later and the two lead singers are back with a new Harry Potter song. This […]

The truth is that some gaming groups get along well, some are chaotic but generally line up but then there are some that are so fractional it’s amazing any gaming goes […]

Sometimes you can pick up a faint halo around the actors. This video might challenge your perceptions of the green screen (or blue; depending on the situation). In fact, […]
Lindsey Stirling twirling her way through a Zelda Medley
There’s a lot of praise to be heaped on this video. It’s well sort. It makes use of some great locations. They push the boat out with some horse riding and some great use of fire. It’s also true that Lindsey can cleary dance. She plays that violin very well. That said there’s something about […]
