What's Wrong With the Xbox One, In Meme Form

Emerald Catron — Wed, 22 May 2013 18:09:20 +0000

Microsoft unveiled their new gaming console yesterday, and people were not impressed. Actually, they were pretty complain-y and grumpy about it. They don't like the name (Xbox One). They don't like all the features. They don't like any of it. (Particularly how the Microsoft folks pretty much just talked about TV the whole time.) They genuinely dislike it so much that they took the time to make memes about it. These really capture the gist of the problems people have with Xbox One.

Zombies Demonstrate Parkour Skills in 'The Flipping Dead'

Emerald Catron — Fri, 17 May 2013 20:42:13 +0000

We would all be so boned if zombies could actually do this stuff. Or, you know, if they actually existed at all. But especially if they existed AND had mad parkour skills. Personally, we prefer the slower, shambling zombies, because they don’t remind us about our asthma. Still, back flips are cool though, so we [...]

Her sleek look and clandestine ways are what make her a prime candidate for Cosplay of the Day.

When one thinks of a sci-fi convention brawl, one conjures up images of Trekkies squaring off against guys dressed like Stormtroopers. But what if the battle went down across the pond in Great Britain? A sci-fi convention at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, England featured enough geek-on-geek violence that the police got involved. [...]

Cosplay of the Day: The Many Adventures of Princess Leia

Britt Hayes — Wed, 15 May 2013 13:05:30 +0000

Some cosplayer choose just one costume based on their favorite character, but today’s standout gives us not one, not two, but three different versions of Princess Leia from our beloved ‘Star Wars‘ trilogy. Leia is so cool. She’s cooler than Luke, obviously, but we’d argue she’s even cooler than Han Solo. Han thinks he’s hot stuff (and [...]

Funny Reactions to the Terrible 'Call of Duty Ghosts' Masked Warriors Teaser Trailer

Danny Fox — Thu, 02 May 2013 16:32:00 +0000

The next entry in the Call of Duty series, Call of Duty Ghosts, is due out November 5. If you haven't made up your mind about buying it, we're not sure the new "Masked Warriors" teaser trailer will do much to convince you. Frankly, we think the trailer is pretty lame. And looking at comments on its YouTube video and Twitter, we aren't alone.
