Here’s a list of some interesting things around the web that I don’t have the time (or the cleverness) to write about more clearly:
Shuttles $199 Linux PC specifications, this thing actually looks cool, not that it would get me to use Linux.
50 Great Arcade cabinets. I really miss arcades.
Vast Cloud of Antimatter traced to Binary [...]
Xbox Live Troubles Result In Free Game
Friday, January 4th, 2008It’s not really news that Xbox Live has been having serious issues since Christmas. A massive influx of new users meant that Microsoft’s servers have had some problems keeping pace. Luckily, they actually feel bad about the situation and will be offering a free game to both Gold and Silver members:
Dear Xbox LIVE Members:

Thursday, December 27th, 2007Halo 3 Rube Goldberg Suicide Machine
Monday, December 24th, 2007[youtube:http://youtube.com/watch?v=Jje1m9DJp8k 400 335]
A Rube Goldberg machine is an elaborate system for performing a simple task. Like the game Mouse Trap. Here, someone creates an entire Rube Goldberg Machine to commit suicide in Halo 3. While it’s very impressive, I can’t help but call it a waste of time. At least the time spent on this [...]
The End is Nigh: New Duke Nukem Forever Trailer Released
Wednesday, December 19th, 2007
Yesterday, when 3D Realms announced that they would release a new trailer at noon today, I totally ignored it as Project Silence does not report on rumors and the very existence of Duke Nukem Forever has, until now, just been one giant joke.
Imagine my amazement when I saw on Shacknews the actual trailer. Even more [...]

Time to Boycott Gamespot/cNet
Saturday, December 1st, 2007I have never been a fan of video game journalism, I’ve always felt it was done poorly. I talked a bit about it on the latest Project Silence Podcast, but my basic reason is that it’s just flawed in it’s execution, seemingly to keep advertising revenue up. On a 10 point scale, 7 is average. [...]
Xbox 360 Backwards Compatibility Update
Wednesday, November 28th, 2007After a long wait, Microsoft has finally updated the original Xbox Backwards Compatibility on the 360. Check out the huge list of new games here. Some decent titles on the list, although I don’t care much since the only game I was still waiting for was NFL 2K5, and now we have the amazing All [...]
Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 Announced
Wednesday, November 21st, 2007Any time Ubisoft Montreal (the people who brought us Asssasin’s Creed and the Rainbow Six series) announces a game I’m going to be interested. When that game is the sequel to the best game of 2006, that’s time to be elated. While it’s a bit disappointing that Team Rainbow is going to remain in Sin [...]
