Matrix online game hires real actors to

Matrix online game hires real actors to
play in-game characters
03/25/2005 06:33 AM
Cory Doctorow: The Matrix Online (a massively multiplayer online game based on the Matrix franchise) has hired a troupe of 20 actors to hang around in game and in character, advancing the story and generally making it all seem more disbelief-suspendingly real.
Since the close of the beta, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announced that it has employed a troupe of 20-odd people whose job it will be to enact narrative scenarios in The Matrix Online live. These people will assume the roles of popular characters, interact with players, and generally move the stories in ways that only live "actors" can. And though it appears that the story hasn't officially commenced, a few players on the Method server were treated to a pretty slick sample of it this afternoon: an extended pep-talk by none other than Morpheus himself. (See the screenshots for proof.) But this is an Out of the Box report, so here are our first impressions of the game so far.

Agreement To Develop Space Station Game
05/31/2004 01:55 PM
Vision Videogames of Towson, Maryland received a Space Act Agreement from The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) earlier this month to develop their PC/PS2/Xbox game, Space Station:SIM, due for consumer release this Christmas season. The Space Act Agreement is a continuation of one received by GRS Games before Vision Videogames management bought out the company in March 2004. It allows Vision Videogames a flow of information from, and access to, NASA personnel so the company can gather information to build their game. “The game has captured everyone’s imagination. We have individuals and international agencies including JAXA (The Japanese Space Agency) volunteering to help us with drawings, science, music – anything you can imagine,” says company president Bill Mueller. In Space Station:SIM, the player assumes the roll of the Chief Administrator of NASA, creating astronaut crewmembers with unique needs, abilities and personalities while managing their activities and personal relationships like “The SIMS®”.

Tec USB Hub Wheel, Fan


Tec USB Hub Wheel, Fan 03/29/2005 04:22 AM

usb_hub.jpg imageContinuing with the Tec product announcements, the company has also introduced the "USB Hub Wheel W" and "USB Senpuuki Mist W." The USB Hub Wheel W brings a somewhat innovative development to the USB hub market by equipping the hub with a "wheel" mechanism; the cable that connects to the PC (or Mac) can be wound up inside the housing like a garden hose.

Finally, we have the "USB Senpuuki Mist W." "Senpuuki" is Japanese for "fan" (as in, "electric fan"), so I don't think this product needs a whole lot of explaining. At the center of the fan assembly is a logo plate that contains a light, so something like could be used for long summer nights in front of the boob tube (or LCD).

The Falkirk Wheel and Millennium Link: I saw this on the Discovery Channel the other day. It's a boat lift in Ireland used to connect two canals that are 110 feet apart vertically. You foat your boat into the cradle, and the wheel spins like a big merry-go-round.

Apparently due the cancellation of weight between the upper and lower cradles, it takes almost no effort to move your boat and the thousands of gallons of water it's sitting in. The pictures don't do it justice — you really need to watch it in action.

Good And Bad Reasons For Texting Behind
The Wheel
08/02/2004 06:16 AM
Ever wanted to communicate with a driver in another car? There are plenty of legitimate reasons why you might. They could have a faulty light, you may have accidentally scratched their car while parking (and are honest enough to admit it) or they may be double-parked and blocking you. Textuall y points out a new service (which sounds very familiar) in Malaysia that would let someone send a text message to the owner of another car, simply by knowing their license plate. You send a text message to a specific number with the plate number in the message, and the service matches it up and forwards the message -- but only if (and it's quite an "only if") the other car owner has registered with the same service. Of course, while there may be good reasons for this service, it's likely many might want to use it for less than friendly reasons as well, such as stalking or yelling at a bad driver. Of course, the biggest reason this might be a bad idea is suggested in differen t Textually post: an increasing number of fatal car accidents from idiots texting while driving.
