Deadgirl is a flick I stumbled across at my local video store a few days back, I’d never previously heard of it, but it sounded kind of amusing. Two high school outcasts constantly ridiculed and picked on, who’d rather drop out if it weren’t for the main characters creepy obsession with a girl play the fish out of water protagonists. One afternoon while skipping class they make a discovery while...
Was going to review Zombie Apocalypse for the xbox, but it’s so regurgitated and crap that it doesn’t deserve it. It’s a button mash, although more primative than the already regurgitated button mash techniques one expects from games, it’s basically a reskinned Postal, with zombies instead of civillians.
So sick of detivative games. There’s always the double jump, the ledge hang, the button spam...
Not that online rental is really possible for the average Australian due to poor speeds and small caps (FORGET ever downloading HD stuff!) Netflix customers are getting the big ol’ shaft after they signed a contract with Warner Bros. to delay release of DVD material by a month to maximize their ’sales of DVD’s. It’s odd they still USE DVD anyway, but business wise it is easy to see why.
Rumour...
The other day pirate Japanese whalers rammed a Sea Shepherd vessel during ’scientific’ whaling operations that were deemed illegal by the HCA in Australian territorial waters of the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary. (read the report here: http://tr.im/JIY7 ) Their actions drew the usual irritation of the global community that the Japanese are still scamming their arses off trying to use loopholes to...
I’ve been following Visceral’s progress with their show pony, Dante’s Inferno, for quite some time. Better known for gritty horroresque smashes like Dead Space and sequels this project takes Dante Alighieri’s poem, throws out almost every page, gives a giant fucking scythe to a self mutilating god bothering crusader and laughs it’s way to the bank with this blockbuster to be when it releases on...
Where to begin. Apparently Optus Vision doesn’t exist anymore, their lame resale of Foxtel cable TV is winding up and they will only cater for existing customers. I rang their sales line only to be told to ring back between office hours (which I shouldn’t have to do) to contact their accounts team and they outright refused a sale of a $3,000+ contract for TV and home phone services.
Why?

So there’s a file type out there called MKV. It’s shit. Only absolute wankers use it. It provides no greater a compression ratio than any other file format that is supported on almost friggen everything and is supported on very, very few default installs of any player. It’s the bane of the xbox 360 TV streamers world, and causes more QQ from noobs than any other format. It’s commonly used by...
It’s raining heavily outside and I’m tired but just can’t seem to fall asleep; the more I try the more I lay here bored tossing and turning. #
I miss bad late 80s and early 90s TV shows like Round the Twist and Ship to Shore. ABC made some cool shit back then. #
Woke up feeling like I went a round with Mike Tyson, wisdom tooth pains FTL. They’re so intermittent too!...

If you haven’t wasted your money getting Foxtel or Foxtel at overpriced rates through Singtel / Optus, save it. Go to http://eztv.it and torrent your favorite series / shows.
For far too long we’ve had sub-standard television in Australia, it’s infuriating. Watching random American shows can wreck entire series’ of shows that haven’t aired here yet; the other day The Soup discussed the end of the...
