I made Boo, my woman made Yoshi :)

Sack Boy Bento

I love looking at the result of someone’s obsessive dedication & appreciate the innocent and fleeting nature of food shaped into amusing and cheerful shapes. With this bento, Anna the Red actually made Sack Boy from Little Big Planet (LBP), one of my two fave games on PS3 (Uncharted is the other).

I need to get back to playing more LBP. I haven’t yet finished the story mode, haven’t finished the custom level I started to build, and have only played about 10 of the 1+ million shared levels available. I’m not sure what distracted me away from the game, but a lot of game journalist podcasters are in the same boat. LBP won a TON of awards and was highly regarded, yet there’s something about this game that makes it difficult to pop it back into the PS3. I’ve got a busy weekend of home repairs ahead of me, and Tchaikovsky symphony tonight. LBP has to wait, yet again.

Sack Boy Bento, though? Awesome.

This just isn’t fair — he may as well club me over the head and steal my money.

:D

Sega Dreamcast

Today marks the 10th anniversary of the US launch of Sega’s Dreamcast. Bitmob’s commemorating the anniversary w/ some nice coverage of the console with some great content.

If you’ve never heard of Bitmob, that’s because it’s Dan “Shoe” Hsu’s new project after having left EGM. Give him a shot — he’s a great writer.

» One-hit-wonder rapper earns her PhD, makes Warner Music pay for it!

This story’s great on so many levels. She’s become a worthy rolemodel and held the label to their commitment at the same time.

The gist is that her contract stipulated that Warner would pay for education for the rest of her life. She held them to it, even though Warner tried to wiggle out of it.

Brilliant! What better way to advertise season 3 of The Guild than a video? :’)
