Political PWNAGE


with the elections looming just around the corner we probably all could use a break from our favorite politicians, maybe sit down, relax play a little X-Box... wait! they're there too!
in the game Mercernary2: world in flames you can Now play as Blastin Barack or Pwnin Palin!
this was brought to my attention recently by several sources the main of course being BoingBoing

space zombies?.... oh sh*t



Hey, Systemphreek here,

I just finished the new game Dead Space for the second time, and this time I was trying to get all the achievements. And even though I knew where and when they were gonna happen, all the stuff that jumped out at me, all the things that come out of the walls and grab you, etc. still managed to scare the bejeezez out of me. I highly recommend this game. It almost, ALMOST beat Bioshock. If you liked Bioshock, this game is a must. It's darker, scarier, and more intense than Bioshock in many ways. And it's in the future, instead of underwater during the 60s (or was it the 50s, I don't remember). Anyway, point is, get Dead Space, you won't be disappointed.

Hi!


Hey ya'll,

I'm Systemphreek, and I'll be helpin out with this blog. I'm a big gamer/musician, so that's what I'll be covering, the current gaming news and reviews, and music news and reviews and other such stuff. Any questions on games or music or the like, be sure to ask me. If I don't know the answer, I'll find someone who does. I should probably mention as well that I DO NOT DO RAP OR POP. Rock and metal, people. So yeah. For those about to rock, I salute you!

The Messy Magician


a good friend of mine and a truly masterful young magician, Lukas bielskis always sang the praises of Lennart Green who after watching his TED talks video which recently popped up on the underground magic site THEORY11, i was wowed by his apparently flaw-filled routine. where he drops cards,shoots them everywhere, and overall makes a ridiculous mess. yet STILL finishes everything PERFECTLY!!!!!!!! check it out

Trailer review-The Spirit


most of my free time is spent on the Apple.com downloads page watching HD movie trailers, and every so often one catches my eye. recently, the black trench coat, hat and mask with a blood red tie has caught my eye I'm speaking of course of Frank Millers the Spirit. now so far i've only seen the trailer so any of the following observations are based solely on that. the most recent trailer opens with a single frame flash of a woman being robbed by a man armed with a Cold steel magnum Tanto IX  when from the rooftops dives the Spirit. so far i'm interested, but i'm not going to give you a walkthrough of the trailer ill let you see it for yourselves. but this movie which is jam-packed with full throttle heavily stylized fight scenes,awesome weapons and many a lovely lady in my humble opinion this is gonna be one hell of a super-hero movie.

it may always be sunny, but its also always funny.


for the past year ive been laughing my @$$ off to the comical strains of five a-holes from Philadelphia trying to run a bar, of course, im talking about the cult classic TV show its always sunny in philadelphia. the show is one of the few, the elite even, things i will make time for just to waste it watching this show. it is in my opinion a piece of boob-toob gold. the strange combination of pain, horror and joy you feel watching charlie pull his teeth out with the greatest of ease in the episode "mac and charlie die pt.1" is a feeling that will be all too farmiliar to you after watching a few episodes.

anatomy of monstrosities


this is an interesting little pic i found on one of my all time favorite blogs boinboing.net
which is managed by a friend of mine Mark Fraunfelder editor of Make Magazine
and youll be seeing alot more of pics and things from his blog in the future have no doubt

but this image personally cracked me up and stole my interest away for a good amount of time
