Sadly, this week the special effects titan Ray Harryhausen died. At the suggestion of R.J. Thompson over at Gamers and Grognards, to honour the legend, Geek Native will be taking part in a “blogfest” dedicated to the man. The animated gif at the top of this post shows the amazing work he pioneered. It was […]

Wait… This fantastic, real bone, creation was put together by Forgotten Boneyard who sell dark and weird creatures on […]
Ghost Hunt game for Halloween
This is a rather clever looking game. Billy Bones comes from Belgium and the game designers at Megableu. Here in the UK, Firebox have the exclusive and I hear plans to run a TV advert.
