The Best iPad 2 Review – Ever!
If you think that your iPad is the best thing that Apple has ever come up with, think again! The rumor mill is ablaze with talk that the iPad 2 is coming out very very soon; although, as usual, no one can give any conclusive data. If you are detail kind of guy, then you will love this video I discovered earlier today. Somehow, this guy got his hands on the much awaited Apple iPad 2. Being the sharing person that he is, he decided to share his experiences with the iPad 2. He even made a very comprehensive video, which reviews practically all the features that the new iPad Read more »
Ass cam confirms what we all know, men stare at women’s bottoms
Gentlemen have the benefit of having a unique perspective when it comes to women. We know we stare at the bottoms of a nice-looking woman. Case closed. Or is it? Read more »
History of Gaming
You know what is cooler than a infographic about the history of gaming? A video about the history of gaming. You see someone playing these games, starting with an Oscilloscope from 1958, and I thought I had a hard time finding a NES console in good working condition. The ‘History of Gaming’ video was made by “Game Design” students from Munich. It is a very simple video but pretty geek and retro considering they actually use working consoles, even the TV gets updated when updating the console. You can see the following games in the video: Tennis for Two, Oscilloscope, 1958 Pacman, Arcade, 1980 Donkey Kong, NES, 1986 Sonic the Read more »
The Brick Thief
Ever wonder what happened to your lost LEGO Bricks? This (sort of) stop-motion short film explains where they’ve gone. (Spoiler: they’ve found a happy place.) The whimsical video takes you inside the mind of an inventor who cooks up ideas using LEGO Bricks as his inspiration. The Brick Thief is the second “LEGO Click” short film; the first can be seen below. Both were created by a company called Blue Source, which has made music videos and advertisements for the likes of Virgin Mobile, Pizza Hut, Snickers, Honda, and many more. Read more »
11 Games to Watch in 2011
Everybody has their favorites. Any good list of upcoming games ought to include triple-A titles like Diablo III or Call of Duty 37 (or whatever CoD is sure to be out by year’s end). But this ain’t that kind of list. These are the top eleven games I can’t wait to see in 2011 — the games that I expect to innovate and enhance the medium. Some are personal favorites; some just look flat-out astounding. Here we go, in no particular order. Batman: Arkham City Batman: Arkham Asylum was not only the first superhero game to actually satisfy superhero fans, it also had the audacity to be one of the Read more »
New Ghostbusters Game is Download-Only
Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime is the name of the next entry in the Ghostbusters video game franchise. Ghostbusters: The Video Game (man, I still need to play that one sometime…) was enough of a hit that Atari and Sony are planning a pseudo-sequel. It’s not a traditional sequel, because where the first game was an off-the-shelf third-person adventure, Sanctum of Slime takes a top-down view (similar to Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light), and it’s not selling in stores. Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, and Atari.com will be selling the game for consoles and PC. As developed by creative studio Behavior Studios, this new game finds you taking on Read more »
There Is More to this MacBook than Meets the Eye
“Once you go MacBook, you won’t go back.” So I took a little liberty with that expression, but who cares? I think that anyone who has worked on one of these babies knows that it is quite hard to go back to a Windows machine – hard but not impossible. Now, if you were to have a MacBook that behaved just like Optimus Prime and the rest of the gang, then turning it in would be a hideous thought at best. Read more »
The History of Online Video
The biggest change in the history of the internet has to be the emergence of video and streaming platforms over the last years. We here at FG obviously are big fans and stream anything we can get our hands on. Whether it’s a Youtube video or Hulu, using tools such as the built-in iPlayer on the PS3 or even software such as Boxee. Can you remember life without online video? I know I struggle. Our colleagues over at The Blog Herald had a look at the history of online video in the alst 5 years and created an awesome infographic for TechSmith, the creators of the awesome Camtasia screencasting software.

Most Creative Use of iPad Ever
I am completely mesmerized by this. Steve Jobs take note: this might be the most ingenious use of an iPad yet. A group of filmmakers made this nifty little film to explore three-dimensional typography. They use a proprietary program to show shapes on the iPad’s screen, and then drag those screens through a space that’s being filmed using long exposure. The result is what appears to be 3D words and objects that float and move through air. It’s so cool, it makes me wish I had their iPad app and a long-exposure camera so I could make a film of my own! The film is part of an science/art project Read more »
