PRINCE OF PERSIA footage out

The first (?) footage from the coming big-blockbuster from Bruckheimer and Disney is out. I’m slowly getting hyped for this film adaption of the games. Initially it was Michael Bay who was rumored to direct, but he’s to busy with the Transformers-success. Maybe it’s best, because there’s just not much to blow up in this

It’s been over ten days since the news hit, and Simen has still not come around to play Mafia. Now at least five bunnies may face CERTAIN DEATH if he doesn’t shape up and stop acting like a stubborn little brat. In the poll created for this case, so far five people have voted that

BIOSHOCK film on hold

Hoy! Variety has just reported that the planned Bioshock-film is put on hold, due to budget issues. Director Gore Verbinski and the studio apparently need to find a more reasonable budget than the reported sum of $160 million.

Surfing around with no clue what to do? Try out this cute Flash-game called A.L.I.A.S, while I celebrate managing to embed a game to the flagship (yes I know it’s only copy+paste, but let me gloat). You jump with “spacebar”, shoot with the mouse and move left with “A” and right with “D”. Enjoy

Simen has not tried Mafia!

A startling revelation today at the University of Bergen. Fellow student, and colleague at Edda Digital, Simen has not tried the game Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven. This came as a great shock.
