Cee-Lo of Gnarls Barkley: “F**k You” Music Video

I know it has been a few days since my last post and for that I apologize. So to get things rolling again I though I would share this wonderful little number performed by Gnarls Barkley’s Cee-Lo. It is titled “F**k You” and it tickles my soul. It speaks volumes to anyone who has lost that special lady because they are not rich. To all those gold diggers out there, we share the sentiment... [Read more]

Dorkutopia: Hands-On With the Xbox360 Kinect

Dorkutopia: Hands-On With the Xbox360 Kinect

I love this game! This weekend my girlfriend and I had the opportunity to stop in at a booth just outside Navy Pier in Chicago and play a few games on the Microsoft Xbox360 Kinect, which is not due out until November. After hearing a short explanation of how it worked, we dived right in, starting off playing one of the many games in the Kinect Adventures game pack, that will be sold alongside the Kinect... [Read more]

Spartacus: Blood and Sand Season 1 Review

Spartacus: Blood and Sand Season 1 Review

After watching commercials for this series many moons ago, I was super stoked. It seemed pretty Bad Ass, but as things tend to go after that initial jolt of “Eff yeah! That show is gonna be JAWSOME!!!”, I almost immediately forgot it ever existed. However after my current acquisition of the complete first series thanks to NETFLIX and a day stuck on the couch in a pain killer induced delusion,... [Read more]

Befuddled or Stuck on a Fence: Little Girls Dance Like Skanks

Befuddled or Stuck on a Fence: Little Girls Dance Like Skanks

Befuddled? So let me start off by filling you in on a little back story. I was sitting in the waiting room the other day for oh I don’t know, some where around 6 hours waiting to be seen. Not that has anything to do with anything, other than I don’t know what happened to the “emergency” in emergency rooms, but I digress. For if the previous mentioned event didn’t happen.... [Read more]

Starcraft 2 Beta: All Your Base are Belong to Me!

Starcraft 2 Beta: All Your Base are Belong to Me!

Recently, I was fortunate to be offered a chance to Beta test the brand new, and might I add AMAZING, Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty RTS Game for PC. I was blown away by the amount of detail put into this game, but knowing it came from Blizzard, what else could you expect. I have never been a “hardcore” Starcraft player, I can’t compete with those Korean power gamers in anyway. As... [Read more]

Bed Intruder News Story Gets Made Into a Song!

Bed Intruder News Story Gets Made Into a Song!

For those who have never heard/saw the original news clip, you missed out on some really funny stuff. I seriously thought that this entire thing was scripted just because Antoine Dodson was just so over the top ridiculous. Then people told me that this came from a news channel in Alabama and it made perfect sense. Well, after only two days, the geniuses over at Auto-Tune the News have released this... [Read more]

The Old Spice Guy is Responsible For at Least One Marriage

The Old Spice Guy is Responsible For at Least One Marriage

Marriage. What an idea right? Two people who are in love decide that the best thing for them is to sign a piece of paper after throwing a very expensive and boring party, for the tax benefits or whatever. I always figured when I decided to get married I would just do the classic proposal, you know, the one where I get down on one knee, open the little box and cry like a baby until she said yes, forever... [Read more]

5 Ways The Next Decade Will Blow Your Mind

5 Ways The Next Decade Will Blow Your Mind

Recently, I was speaking to a group of friends about the implications of Nano-Technology and the potentially drastic changes it will bring about, but almost every time I speak of the future, everyone thinks I am a mad man and that all the high tech concepts I mention are just my over active imagination at work. I am a huge fan of Futurism and all the glorious information that is attached to it, so... [Read more]

After wrapping up the panel on RED at Comic-Con, they were quick to play this second theatrical trailer displayed below. It is absolutely hilarious and... [Read more]

Critical Firefox Update Due to Farmville Users

Critical Firefox Update Due to Farmville Users

Seriously, Read above. Over the weekend, Everyone in the world who uses Firefox had to update due to a small glitch that only affected the people I hate most in the world: Farmville Users. According to Mozilla, the previous update caused a bug (kinda) that would cause Farmville to hang long enough to trigger a timeout, rendering the crappy and useless game unplayable. If you ask me, all the Farmville... [Read more]

If Your Dad is Beardless, You’ve Got Two Moms

If Your Dad is Beardless, You’ve Got Two Moms

It has been my secret shame since I was just a boy. My dad doesnt have a beard, and as far as I know never has. That explains why every time I try to grow a beard, it looks like it did when my older, manlier step brother glued his pubes to my face while I slept. It was gross, but it still looked manlier than my peach-fuzz encrusted, baby soft alabaster skin. Now I am a full grown man, and my beard... [Read more]

Five Epic Gift Ideas to Make Geeks Happy

Five Epic Gift Ideas to Make Geeks Happy

The word geek was not always a good thing if you can remember back that far. It used to be an insult in middle school and sometimes in high school, until all the hot cheerleaders realized I could finish their Chemistry homework during my lunch period. I always did it for some kind of a small fee (*wink*) but now that I am older, I have come to love the term geek! If geekutopia had not already been... [Read more]

HULC Exoskeleton Ready for Testing

Even though as a child I was promised laser pistols, jet packs and digitally enhanced vision through x-ray specs, none of these have really come to fruition, so when I saw that Lockheed-Martin was working on an exo-skeleton over a year ago, I literally cried tears of joy. Now we have a field-ready human exo-skeleton in the HULC (Human Universal Load Carrier). Since last we heard of the thing, it’s... [Read more]

Trading Up: Teen Uses Craigslist to Trade His Phone for a Porsche

In the days of instant gratification via the internet, it seems that most people have lost patience and their common sense, but a teen from Glendora, CA has boat loads of both.

Lagoa Multi-Physics Engine: A Modern Marvel

Lagoa Multi-Physics Engine: A Modern Marvel

I know a little bit about physics. I know very little about physics engines, and even less about how they actually work. The one thing I do know? That I love them in video games. While game engines like Unreal and id Tech 5 may have very good physics engines , that doesn’t stop new engines from appearing, and in this case, ripping your face off with the sheer force of awesome that is the Lagoa Multi-physics... [Read more]

Apple Geniuses VS Best Buy Geeks

Apple Geniuses VS Best Buy Geeks

Most people know about the Best Buy Geek Squad. I mean they drive around in fancy little VW Beetles and have a bright orange and black logo on the side, but fewer people know about Apple store Geniuses, which are basically the Geek squad for Apple products. Most people I know have never been to an actual Apple store, where everyone I know has been to a best buy at least a bazillion times. I am sure... [Read more]

Microsoft Kinect Price: $150 Dollars

For weeks, many retailers in the video game industry have been saying that Kinect will be priced at a reasonable 150 dollars and they were correct.

God of War Indie Film Style

God of War Indie Film Style

An indie film about a high school age Kratos done in the style of any number of Michael Cera films. I am not really a fan of Michael Cera and his one character plots that consist of awkwardly wooing the girl of his dreams. Seriously, no one seems to care that every single Michael Cera movie is the exact same thing as the last one, with just a few changes to names and locations. But this is an indie... [Read more]

The Best of the Best: World of Warcraft Leveling Guides

Those of us here at Dorkutopia really love us some World of Warcraft. I have been playing this game since it’s inception so many years ago. I even left EQ2 as to be able to play WoW more often.
