Cool Macroshots Show The Dramatic Adventures of Star Wars Figurines

Photos with Star Wars figurines can’t really get more dramatic (and funny) than in Malaysian photographer Zahir Batin’s machroshots on DeviantART.

That’s a Perfectly Executed Slam Dunk… in Kerbal Space Program

Performing a Space Jam!-style ultimate dunk with an asteroid is not how you finish Kerbal Space Program, but that’s how it should end. It probably took hours and hours of quicksaving and retries for SweetieKat to pull this off, since even getting into orbit is a challenge in this game. Kerbal Space Slam! [YouTube, via…

Super Mario 64 Feels Great, But Plays Like Crap on Oculus Rift

First-person platforming is hard to pull off. It takes lots of planning and fine control to make it work, so really, Super Mario 64 playing so badly in first-person comes as no surprise. Still looks fun, though. To make Super Mario 64 work with the Rift, YouTuber Chadtronic used three pieces of software: Dolphin for…

In the past few years, there have been an increasing number of illegal rooftop villas added as extra floors to existing structures. Some of the most egregious ones have been reported and taken down.

James Cameron’s Guilty Pleasure Is The First Resident Evil Movie

Usually celebrity Ask Me Anythings on Reddit consist of one word answers and people avoiding the hard questions. James Cameron’s Ask Me Anything was not like this.

This Wind Waker figure, which comes with interchangable head, accessories, arms and effects, has already got my money. And yes, I know the “angry” face is really just his…

Someone Asked Harrison Ford Who Shot First

Don’t tell me you wouldn’t ask the same question if you had the chance.
