free games, for the cost o' download

  • Ground Control: apparently to promote Ground Control 2, the first game is being given away, gratis. This won the Adrenaline Vault Seal of Excellence. (PC)
  • Tribes: Same deal as Ground Control; with a new game coming out, everything prior in the series is now up for grabs for free. (PC)
  • Castle Wolfenstein Enemy Territory: Based on the Quake3 engine, this is the standalone, multiplayer component of the lukewarm-received Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Some people swear it's the best multiplayer FPS around. I've been too focused on getting my demo-playing ass kicked in UT2k4 that I've not kicked this around the office yet. (PC and Linux)
  • Underworld: Movie-licensed, multiplayer shooter. (PC)
  • Sky Captain: Movie-licensed, somewhat rail-y flying shooter. (PC and Mac)
Update: Anandtech forum has this list of free games as well. (via Joystiq)

He has turned on me, and I don’t know why. He’s going on and on about Panama City Beach, the spring break spot in northern Florida where Bay County sheriff’s deputies arrested him three years ago on charges of racketeering, drug trafficking and promoting the sexua...

cosplay of popular fast foods

ワンダーフェスティバル2006夏のコスプレ : I like seeing the detail and passion that goes into cosplay, but I like it more when people break away from the mainstream game and anime stuff, and start cosplaying their favorite snackfoods. Here is the head-only hanbañero pepper snack, with the rest of the performer’s body ignored by consensual agreement through the black costume of kabuki and bunraku scene handlers. Tonight he will visit you in your dreams. The Tarako kewpie baby also makes an appearance . ( Warning , page contains cosplayers, and some links to not-work-safe toys and models)
