Matrix online game hires real actors to

Matrix online game hires real actors to
play in-game characters
03/25/2005 06:33 AMCory 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.

Hot party game trend: Cockroach racing
Hot party game trend: Cockroach racing
06/14/2004 11:40 AMA Lithuanuan event management company offers unusual party games,
including the time-honored sport of Madagascar Cockroach Racing.
Every participant receives special race money and can purchase with
them one of six cockroach. Other participants bet for the couple of
player and cockroach they liked the most and watch the competition on
the big table (4.5x1.5 m).
The game will be a surprise to all guests. As much as they would
load the poor insect from the beginning, they will love them be the
end of the race. Players stimulate theirs cockroaches to run by
knocking the glassed surface of the course with the special small
sticks and joy of every step of cockroach. The finish of the race is
quite unpredictable and every step of a cockroach brings lots of
emotions to all the guests.

11/06/2003 04:10 AMIt's pretty common in many (though certainly not all) sports for
players to go an extra step or two to push an opposing team when
they're down. Maybe hit an opponent a little extra hard or try to add
an extra shove when a ref isn't looking. It seems that some dirty
tricks come naturally in many sports - but not in video games until
now. There's a new video game controller out there that will let you
momentar
ily take control of your opponents controller. Sometimes it gives
you full control, and others it just messes up their controller
altogether. Consider it the video game version of an extra shove.

Fixing a racing heart
Fixing a racing heart
01/05/2005 06:44 PMModern medicine has crossed into magic. My wife Ann went into the
Brigham and Women's Hospital today at 6AM to have her tachycardia --
episodes of a racing heartbeat -- fixed. A little before 10AM, they
threaded five wires up through her arteries (veins?), from her groin
directly into her heart. Ann says the procedure was basically
painless. Once the catheters were in her heart, the doctors stimulated
a tachycardia episode and used that to figure out which circuit was
going astray. They heated the tip of one of the wires and burned a
square millimeter or so of her...
Figure Eight Train Racing
Figure Eight Train Racing
03/26/2005 09:53 PMI stumbled across something on SpeedTV today that has to
be seen to be believed: figure-eight train racing. Not real trains
— three cars lashed together to act like a train.
The first car is the only powered car. Usually something big, old,
and American — mid seventies Monte Carlos seemed quite popular. The
driver of this car steers and works the throttle. The car has no
brakes.
Attached to the back of the first car by chains and a tow bar is
the middle car, which has nothing. No engine, no brakes, no driver.
Just an empty shell.
Attached to the back of that by chains is the caboose. No engine,
no steering, but it has brakes and a driver. God help him.
Now, take eight of these perversions of automotive theory and put
them on a figure eight track. Seriously. Then race them for 10
laps.
The race I watched ended with no hits in the crossover, which
surprised me. What's amazing is watching the caboose get whipped
around like a rag doll. The rear driver is supposed to be able to put
some tension on the train by using the brake, but I couldn't see any
difference. Any quick steering movement up front got wildly
exaggerated by the time it rippled back to the rear and that guy was
just along for the ride.
I wish I had a picture to show you, but a few minutes of Googling
turned up nothing. Half of me thinks the whole thing was just a
nightmare.
