Marc Steinmetz has a photo gallery of prisoner escape tools. Some ingenious devices, there.
Been listening to Da Chip off and on all week. 8-bit + Daft Punk = yum.
Check out Giant Bomb’s coverage of CA Extreme. One of these years I’ll make it to the show.
Evo 2009, July 17-19th
Don’t forget, kids, the Evo 2009 Championships are in less than a month!
Hosted at Rio Las Vegas and taking place July 17-19th, you don’t need to be a tournament participant to spectate, and there’s a ton of gaming to be had in the free-to-all BYOC area. While the Madonnas won’t be ready in time, I may bring along the Divers Dreamcast and Neo-Geo cabinet.
For an idea of what to expect, check out the photos from last year.
