Check out this cool video from Video Games Live where an orchestra is playing the music from lots of classic video games. Outrun, Ghost'n Goblins, Joust, Tetris, Pong, Donkey Kong and many other classics.

If you are into Tesla Coils or music from video games you could have a look at this video.

As some of you might have noticed the site has been offline for maintenance this afternoon. We have been doing some changes to the menus and the front page.

As some of you probably know I've been playing some Forza 2 Motorsport lately. I finally completed the game last week after about 2 months. It took me a total of 58 hours to complete the game which shouldn’t be too bad since my winning percentage is 98%.

Attorneys no longer have to worry about their witnesses turning up dead.

Now you can just stick the witness or victim in one end of the Zombietron, pour in a teaspoon of nanobots, and let them soak in the machine overnight.

Sure, they reek like a latrine pit full of rotten meat, but functional and lucid zombies are admissible as evidence.

The worst part of the process is watching them die again. I wonder if they suffer.

So, what happens when you put a living person in the Zombietron?

I don't know.

Hey, let's grab a bum and find out.

Recently some of our users have lost their blogs when they have been editing them. This is very unfortunate as lots of brilliant stuff has gotten lost in space. The cause of this is that when you navigate to another page the content of the blog-editor is lost. Clicking a link or going back (either by clicking back or pressing back space when a picture has focus) will result in your blog being lost.
 
Lots of editors have this problem and unfortunately there is nothing I can do about it at the moment.

We got mentioned in this weeks Crash FM podcast. I asked them 3 Burnout releated questions. I'm not going to go  into the details here as you can hear it all in the podcast. There was also lots of new information about Burnout Paradise. I've written an article that should give you all the details you need.
