A few updates today. The Resident Evil 5 gallery has 12 new images, including art for the Gold Edition. The No More Heroes gallery has been updated with 10 images, and the Tatsunoko vs Capcom gallery has 7 new images scattered across both pages (Jun the Swan, Yatterman #2, Ippatsuman, Gold Lightan, Mega Man, Roll, and PTX-40A).
Remain focused, Link

I've always found Link to be a little too carefree in his grave quest to rescue Princess Zelda. I guess someone else feels the same way. Disturbing lack of attention - via Ryotiras
Charity domino effect
Posted by David on January 14, 2010
I don't often post non-gaming blurbs, but as the devastation of Haiti's 7.0 magnitude quake on Tuesday continues to become clear I've decided to help raise awareness. The death toll has surpassed 110,000, with three million more injured or homeless. I've donated what would have been this month's video game funds, and there are many options for others to join the global effort as well, including easy donations via SMS text if you're in the US. See Google's list of participating organizations or visit yours of choice if you'd like to help. Google crisis response
Cockatiels hate chocobos
Posted by David on January 2, 2010
Final Fantasy XIII released in Japan a couple weeks ago. So did the Final Fantasy XIII Elixir canned drinks. One of said cans features a fuzzy baby chocobo from the game. You know, those over-sized yellow chickens we love so much. But you know who doesn't love them? Other yellow birds. Check out this cockatiel beating up a chocobo.
Perhaps it just wants the chocobo dead so it can steal its theme song.

Happy Holidays from Creative Uncut
Posted by David on December 23, 2009
2009 is almost gone, and in the spirit of the holidays I'd like to thank you all for sharing the year with us and wish you a very blessed and safe Christmas and a prosperous 2010. It's a great time to consider your blessings and those around you. The FAO predicts a sixth of the world's population will go hungry this year, and while not everyone may be in a position to give, we can all do our part to not waste. Although...if you are in a position to give, charities are facing their toughest year in decades and a modest gift can make a bold difference. As a certain Mr. Churchill once said, "We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give."
Art book reviews
Posted by David on December 8, 2009
Collecting art books is a hobby that is often as costly as collecting video games, and just like the latter, being able to demo the product before you commit to buy is important when a good sum of money is at stake. Before I buy an art book I usually like to know what's inside, how many pages it has, what the print quality is like, etc.
For that I turn to blog reviews. One blog in particular that I've been using ever since the owner of it stopped by our forums is Parka Blogs. It contains reviews for hundreds of art books for games, movies, and comics along with sample pictures of the pages. One feature I especially appreciate is a brief video of the book's pages being flipped through.
And to aid you further, there's also a wealth of links to other art book review blogs. So if you're looking for such a resource, I'd recommend Parka Blogs as a good place to begin your search. Parka Blogs
