Another Board Game of the Video Game

You might not think that a board game version of Super Mario Kart could be any where near as entertaining as the actual game, and you’d be completely right.

Dungeons & Dragon - You have never played like this

A team from Carnegie Mellon has developed a D&D that can be played on Microsoft’s Surface.
The video shows that players can put their miniature figures on the Surface, and it will automatically give the stats on the display.

SurfaceScapes Gameplay Session from Surfacescapes on Vimeo.

As for the Dungeon Master’s (DM) role, he or she can make maps, and then go in for closeups and scroll with some device exists that outside of the surface. You’ll have to watch the vid to see what I’m talking about. It would appear that the DM is linked to the Surface with a laptop for their own personal privacy.

Now, the whole Dungeons and Dragons game is dependent on dice, and it appears that there is a kind of virtual dice that the character can “roll”.

Super Mario Chess Set - Luigi is queen !

Are you bored of playing the same old black and white chess??? i am sure this Super Mario chess will make you play again and again.

This game won’t come with changed rules in any way, and no, you aren’t allowed to stomp on opposing pawns but will have to stick to traditional chess rules instead. One shocking thing is this – Luigi acts as the queen, talk about weird! This is despite the fact that Princess Peach is still hanging around on the board. Ah well, guess strange days are ahead of us – no wonder Mario can’t really seem to start a relationship with Princess Peach in all the games we’ve played so far. The Super Mario Chess Set is going for $39.99.

This Keyboard is really sponsored - Funny

Everything these days is sponsored by some major corporation. Advertising dominates the landscape and is virtually unavoidable.

Marketing is so pervasive in our world that image and branding has taken a stanglehold of our lives, and here we are with the Brand Everything keyboard where individual keys on the keyboard do not come with just the letter itself, it has been replaced with logos of some of the biggest and most famous companies - for example,

Google represents ‘G’ while HP is the ambassador for the letter ‘H’. Kudos to Ignacio Pilotto for concocting such an idea - it would be interesting to see which company/brandname will actually sell something like this. Hey, it sound so crazy, it might actually work!

A Gremlin that doesnt Multiply when its wet

Have you Ever watched the Movie Gremlins years back?...It brings back memories of a cute little bugger that comes with specific care instructions, which were obviously disobeyed resulting in a whole lot of chaos in the neighborhood. Well, nice to see ThinkGeek offer the Singing Gizmo Gremlins Plush that won’t spawn nefarious copies of himself when fed after midnight or getting wet.

Now you can take your own cuddly plush Singing Gizmo home with you. He’s a little smaller than life-size and looking a bit mischievous. Shake him and he sings the soothing song of the Mogwai while slowly rocking back and forth. Please don’t get him wet, expose him to bright lights or feed him after midnight. We can’t be responsible for the consequences.

Looks (and sounds, literally) like the perfect gift for any 1980s movies fan without costing a whole bundle with him going for $22.99.
