I thought this WiiMote controller “enhancement” was a joke … until I got my hands on it #OMG

Now I’ll have to replay House of the Dead: Overkill all over again!

So you got 5500 EUR/7k USD lying around and no clue what to do with it? Here’s a droolworthy digital pinball machine

42” LCD for the playing field, 30” LCD for the backglass and 19” (by
4”) for DMD … it’s a pinball emulator on STEROIDS.
It’s been designed by one of the oldest German outfits for import
games and console mods. I used to spend a good amount of my teenage
summer job income by mail-ordering stuff from them in the early 90s. The video narration is in German but shouldn’t bother you too much -
it’s the visuals and sound fx that count ;)

Just watched “Summer Wars”. Very good. Somehow felt like watching TRON for the first time when I was six …

… TRON and WarGames definitely
nudged me towards life as developer - Summer Wars with its
plot circling around a bigger and definitely more badass than Facebook
social network dubbed “Oz” - should do the same for some of the
current generation of tech-affine kids ;)

How not to love Castlevania’s “Bloody Tears”?

The treasure trove that is YouTube features videos with the
Castlevania II (NES) & Super Castlevania IV (SNES) versions and an
array of random headbangers playing the track on electric guitar! Also, Iron Maiden poster in background, FTW!

Sunrise as seen from the window of my study this morning around 6 AM - after 10 straight hours of SC2 MP ;)

Beautiful.

After having caught up with sleep, I feel recharged and good to go for
another busy hack week: more of project LABSRUFL.

Unwinding with friends, JP food, games, cookies & marshmallows

We just played through the *excellent* Xbox Live Arcade title Limbo in a single session. The photo shows Sofia’s look after 24 hours of anime, gaming and general geek out.
