Space Invader brought up to date

Damn this thing looks nasty. I wonder if this is the vision the man in Japan had originally but simply didn’t have enough pixels to work with.

Modern space invader

Made by ZBrush from CGHUB. Fun fact from this image is that ZBrush broke his left wrist during the time making this nasty thing and rigged up some foot pedals to use ctrl, shift and alt.

Nintendo-mobile. Nintendo-themed car.

Another inhabitant of Georgia has pimped up their ride to show their love of computer games. First there was the Mr PacMan car. Now we have the Nintendo version! Plus the canvas being the same style Chevy. Man, I’d love to see these two race it out on Koopa Beach.

From the outside, it looks like any other pimped-up car with 22″ rims… apart from the giant NES controller on the side. But inside, is where the love is. Re-upholstered seats to include the retro Nintendo colours of black, red and grey. Mario and Luigi on the seats. I’m not sure what “Game Over” is telling the passengers in the back, but I love the detailing. That’s not saying I’d be happy to cruise around in this thing picking up chicks though.

Huge joysticks with the new Tetris Giant!

Not new to the world apparently, but new to me, so I thought it was worth a mention.

So anyway, Tetris Giant uses two huge balltop joysticks to control huge blocks on a huge screen. Shown in the images is a projector, which has now been dropped down to a 40-something inch LCD. Probably to bring some of the $10,000 cost down, but also to reduce the footprint

If you’ve got a significantly shorter significant other, Sega have got that covered with the different sized sticks!

World’s biggest PAC-MAN

Ever get bored of the same old PAC-MAN playing field? No, me neither. But if you wanted to work your way round a maze created by some random crazy, or create your own, check out The World’s Biggest PAC-MAN.

Currently there have been over 27,000 mazes created and said mazes have been played over 7 million times. Incase you were wondering, around 760 million dots have been eaten.

To be fair though, there are some silly mazes, but in contrast, some people have put a lot of time and effort in to create some good things. Though probably very unplayable.

Soap indeed. Have a bath you dirty monkey.

New Acer Aspire netbook

I think I feel the purchase of a couple of new company netbooks coming on.

According to engadget, this is the forthcoming Acer Aspire 722, with a rather sweet blue ripple design if I may say so :)

NES love nest

If the giant NES coffee table doesn’t satisfy your craving for retro consoles… or entice a woman into your life, then maybe this NES bed spread will do the trick!

This is so far wrong, it wraps all the way round to being totally right.
