In the words of Will Smith... I have got to get me one of these!

8-Bit Art

I can't believe I missed this but apparently there was a contemporary pop art show called I AM 8-BIT! This was a show that was focused on the theme of old 8-Bit games. It featured many big pop artist including Steve Purcell. These are some of my favorites:Yes! Someone built a giant Atari joystick that actually works!If you want to see more pieces check out these galleries: 1 2

No electricity required!

Just wanted to invite you all to join us on next next Saturday (not this Saturday, not next Saturday, but the Saturday after that) at the Celebration in the Park at Neff Park. Jess and I went a couple years ago and it was a lot of fun. I have no idea when we'll be there, but if you're interested in going, let me know. Maybe we can coordinate.

Holy-Aunt-Betty-In-A-Rented-Hamster-Suit!

For those of you who are Sam and Max fans from either the old Lucas Arts PC game, the cartoon series or the old comic, here is a fun treat.

There is a new Sam and Max PC game that is available! (sounds of S&M fans rejoicing) What’s unique about this game is that it is being released overtime in episodes like a cartoon series. Season one has already been released and they’re already into season two! Check out the official website of Tell Tale Games.

The really cool part of this whole thing for me is that Steve Purcell (the creator of S&M) is creating a new S&M comic! This sort of "graphic novel" is being release entirely online in pieces kind of like the game. Steve told me when I met him at the Comic Con in San Diego, that once he has completed the comic he will publish it with a combined republication of the original comics. I can’t wait! If you want to read the comic just click here.

Steve also told me that the animated series will eventually be released on DVD at some point in either the fall or the spring. If you want to check out the series it can be viewed for free at GameTap (To view it on their site, click "Animation" up in the top left, then click "Sam & Max Animated Series," ).

Sam: (reading a Greek restaurant sign) "No shirt, no shoes, no souvlaki." HA HA That’s funny!

Max: At least pants are optional.

The system is back up!

I layed hands on Mom's tv, so it's working again now. Everything should be set to go for tonight!

THE SYSTEM IS DOWN THE SYSTEM IS DOWN

Hey guys, bad news.

Monday, Mom turned her TV on and nothing happened. She's sure it's not our fault because she was watching tv after we all left Sunday night, but it means no tv for this Sunday. If I can swipe the projector from work this weekend, we can still game-on, and with an even bigger screen, but otherwise we migh thave to figure out an alternative activity and/or meeting place.

I'll keep you all posted re: equipment.

Oh, and I think it's Klutch's turn to pay for 'za.
