“Young Folks” is a surprisingly touching pop ballad duet. This song brought vividly to my mind the fragile and exhilarating moments at the start of a relationship where one discovers that someone else may in fact be willing to accept and love you.
Every time a new Zelda game is released by Nintendo, we can expect a masterpiece. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, originally released in 2003, is no exception. It is incredibly gorgeous and fun to play, with countless hours of exploration, puzzles, action, surprises and animations to look forward to.

For years, I’ve been looking for a simple way to visualise the rise and fall of humanity’s empires, in sequence, on a world map. This is exactly what MapsOfWar.com has managed to accomplish!
A masterpiece of machinima animation, Ignis Solus (Latin for “Burn Alone”) uses the colorful and cartoony Team Fortress 2 game engine to weave a stirring tale of solitude and of the peculiar connection with strangers one can experience within the context of a multiplayer action game.
More machinima madness as Watch officer Bundles and Lieutenant Tibbles, proud members of the Combine’s Civil Protection overwatch, display various levels of competence in the line of duty.
Civil protection is a series of machinima animated shorts using the Half-Life 2 game engine and setting to tell the tale of two Civil Protection officers fighting boredom as they do their rounds in City 17.
I recently finished watching the excellent Extended edition of the Lord of the Ring trilogy on DVD. What better way to honor this masterpiece than by watching this memorable excerpt from the 2003 MTV awards where Gollum himself picks up the award for Best Virtual Performance and "thanks" MTV, Andy Serkis, Peter Jackson and his team for his miserable experience shooting the movie by hurling angry, obscene abuse to all of them.
