Signs you've played too much Tetris







Signs you've played too much Tetris

Signs you've played too much Tetris 03/14/2005 04:24 PM

When I got home last night, I picked up my mail and opened the shirt I ordered from Threadless:

Tetris
tshirt

It took me all of two seconds to look at Scandinavia and determine that it was impossible to construct using conventional Tetris pieces. Unless some of the little blocks had been disappeared by clearing a row. And the dialogue in my head when I was thinking about all this was spoken in Professor Frink's voice from The Simpsons. Maybe I need to start reading on the subway rather than playing my GameBoy Advance so much.

Return of Tetris Shelves 04/19/2005 08:47 AM

Space_sm.jpgWhen I saw the Tetris shelves on Kotaku yesterday I called Brave Space design to see how much they wanted for them. They told me they weren't selling those pine models, as they were just a prototype, but had just completed their first production model, which as you can see from this exclusive picture, is much more swanky—the outside is walnut and the insides are ash.

My wallet was about to be chiseled from its ham hock when they informed me of the price: around $7k for 10 pieces. And if you don't stack them correctly, they disappear and you have to buy them all over.

The official rules for Cornhole, the chance to become a card carrying member and the freedom to ask detailed questions on the Cornhole Forum are all now available via this wonderful thing called the Internet.

MSN Music can be played on Pocket PC 09/04/2004 05:11 PM

I have a Pocket PC and I consider it the biggest waste of money I have ever spent for a gadget. So the news that you can play music on it that is purchased from MSN is encouraging. This is really no big deal as I have played music on it purchased from other sources for a long time. With only a 128 meg memory stick I don't really think it's worth the hassle though to me honest with you. [Engadget]

The SCO Group Inc. said Thursday that Microsoft Corp. was not involved in raising venture capital funding for the company, dismissing claims that a leaked e-mail demonstrated that Microsoft had helped raise tens of millions of dollars for SCO. An e-mail from an outside consultant to SCO apparently involved in brokering deals for the company was posted to the Open Source Initiative Web site Wednesday. The consultant in the e-mail suggests that Microsoft "brought in $86 million" for SCO and that between US$16 million and $20 million is underway.
