Oculus Riff: Discussing the Oculus Rift


After the exciting long weekend that was the very first PAX Australia, Cameron and I sat down to discuss one of the standout pieces of technology to grace the expo hall: the Oculus Rift, what we liked and what we didn't like.

Back to the food chain: The Last of Us beheads the zombie genre


Maybe I'm alone here, but I'm kinda over zombies. As a lover of comic books, metal and video games, I realise zombies are pretty hard for me to avoid, and honestly I'm okay with that. I don't want to see zombies disappear.

But I am a bit sick of seeing them all the time.

Grand Theft Auto V: True Augmented Reality




I’m not delusional, I know I’m not the most productive member of society and that my existence is limited to sleeping, eating and, occasionally walking. But earlier today I decided to change my life – I decided that I would finally take those first steps into the big outside world, I would finally pick up those hobbies I had been too afraid to: bike riding, scuba diving and even exploring the wilderness.

Though I’d do it all from the comfort of my safe, dark home.

As I said, I’m not delusional. I know that the leading cause of death in people within my age group is going outside. There are awful things out there: people with an assortment of sharpened objects, animals with more than two legs and breathable air.
