Return of the Original Invaders







Return of the Original Invaders

Return of the Original Invaders 05/03/2004 05:26 AM

Space Invaders is the video game that kick-started the industry's meteoric worldwide rise. Now, 25 years later, Space Raiders promises to take the classic gameplay into the 21st century. Clever retro throwback, or a nostalgic misfire? A product review by Chris Kohler.

Space Invaders Making A Comeback... In
The Original Form
12/05/2003 03:15 AM
There are plenty of old video games that have been getting an "update" lately. These are games that have the same title as a game from decades ago, but are otherwise almost entirely different. This isn't a surprise, considering the vast difference in gaming technology. However, sometimes, people just want the original classic. Taito is planning to start selling the arcade machines of "Space Invaders" again - twenty five years after it was originally introduced. It's not an update, but the same game that was such a big hit years ago (and one of the first video games I ever played). The only difference has to do with inflation. It'll now cost $0.50 per play instead of the old standard of $0.25.

Space Invaders Rug 06/07/2004 11:37 PM
Nerdolicious area rug from NYC-based design boutique Dune. According to Funfur de blog, the boutique's owner contacted Space Invaders maker Taito for permission to make the rug -- and Dune was reportedly given permission to do so without any requirements of licensing fees or royalty payments. Unlike the game on which it is based, this design product will cost you more than just a fistful of quarters -- $3,000, to be exact.

Return to Return of the King


Return to Return of the King 01/25/2004 09:30 AM
(I just blogged this at BlogCritics.org) We went to see Return of the King for the second time last night because our 13-year-old wanted to see it for his third time. My pre-VCR generation has trouble being entertained by a movie more than once, but there are exceptions. Lord of the Rings is one: Giant trolls, gargantuan elephants, catapults firing heads, fierce bad guys with faces made out of cookie dough, fire-tipped battering rams, stirring music, flying dragons, all in one scene. What more do you want in a movie? Even though it was my second time, I still...

New original sf on Futurismic


New original sf on Futurismic 07/01/2004 03:34 AM
Futurismic, the excellent sf writers' group blog that's been publishing original fiction, has just published a new story by Ruth Nestvold, an excellent up-and-comer. Jeremy sez, "Also, we opened up our second reading period for new fiction from now until July 31. We pay US$100 per story. Guidelines are at http://www.futu rismic.com/about/guidelines.html and the submission form is at http://www. futurismic.com/contact/index.html#submit"
The reasons I volunteered were hardly simple. When are our motivations ever straightforward? I wanted to prove my own theories of gender and identity, solve one of those big riddles of the universe — are men and women really from different planets? is it nature or nurture? — but there was also the simple element of curiosity. No one had ever acquired both the body and the brain of the opposite sex. And I admit, being the first had a strong attraction for me, doing something that would earn me a place in the history books, put me next to Doreen Kimura and Sigmund Freud.

PageRank: Google's Original Sin


PageRank: Google's Original Sin 09/17/2002 05:02 AM
In the first place, Google's claim that "PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web" must be seen for what it is, which is pure hype. In a democracy, every person has one vote. In PageRank, rich people get more votes than poor people, or, in web terms, pages with higher PageRank have their votes weighted more than the votes from lower pages. As Google explains, "Votes cast by pages that are themselves 'important' weigh more heavily and help to make other pages 'important.'" In other words, the rich get richer, and the poor hardly count at all. This is not "uniquely democratic," but rather it's uniquely tyrannical.

"tri" So if google is all about the tyranny of the elite (and yes, if you are reading this, you count as one of the chosen), why does it work so well?
