Video Games Live concert on TV
On Friday night Sky Arts and Sky Arts HD will be showing a full concert recorded at the Lakefront Arena in New Orleans.
So basically only Mr. Ultimate Hipster need apply.
Is that the same concert some folks here went to in town that time?0 -

Joking aside, how did Sir Ultimate happen to become tagged as a hipster? Is it his tastes in apparel? His strong dislike of Zombies? His love for rubbish films [troll mode engaged
]? Enlighten me, how did we create a hipster?
Thank goodness he's drawing attention away from my Wang t-shirt!

Pantry Lad and Mountain Lodge Man are obvious enough but not sure how Mr. Ultimate got tagged as a hipster. Does attendance at that T2 film now exclude him from Hipster membership or have the Hipsters got two new members in you and Pantry Lad - he could have been on a secret recruiting mission! :eek: 0 -

The ankle area of my jeans is currently in excess of 5cm, thats automatic expulsion from hipsterdom.
Dinorex seems very protective of hipsterism, I reckon he's a closet one0 -

From Wikipedia:Kyosuke Kosaka, a normal 17-year-old high school student living in Chiba,[3] has not gotten along with his younger sister Kirino in years. For longer than he can remember, Kirino has ignored his comings and goings and looked at him with spurning eyes. It seemed as if the relationship between Kyōsuke and his sister, now fourteen, would continue this way forever. One day however, Kyosuke finds a DVD case of a magical girl anime which had fallen in his house's entrance way. To Kyosuke's surprise, he finds a hidden eroge (an adult game) inside the case and he soon learns that both the DVD and the game belong to Kirino. That night, Kirino brings Kyosuke to her room and reveals herself to be an otaku with an extensive collection of moe anime and younger sister-themed eroge she has been collecting in secret. Kyosuke quickly becomes Kirino's confidant for her secret hobby.
While Conception Please have my children sounded like a good and interesting game this one does exactly what it says on the tin. Moe **** fodder.

I've used that joke years before eurogamer, making it even more unoriginal. I also stole it from someone else.

ATTN: passing on the message: have you any ideas on what ye'd like to see? it'd be really helpful for the organizers.
~<3
Looking at their objectives and explanation of the exhbition,
they seem to have a very broad and clear understanding of the gaming scene as a whole.
Which is great, and is it making it hard for me to come up with any suggestions that are not so obvious.
I think a lot of our suggestions would be on the retro side of these things,
so maybe we could help out there to show people how the games evolved,
and not to take too much away from the exhibition exploring the future of games.
Here's an idea,
why don't we kickstart Steve's idea in the A Call to Action Comrades thread by using this exhibition as a stepping stone
and perhaps hosting a "Retro Day" if this is welcomed by the organizers.
Since Steve proposed this idea, I guess he would be the one to contact them.
If he wasn't interested then I suppose we could work as a group also.0 -

Anyone can take this and run with it as far as I'm concerned. I'll gladly do my bit but if someone wants to contact them and get some information and all that then cool.

I'm the researcher for the GAME exhibition at The Science Gallery. You guys got there before I got a chance to post the open call here.
Submit your ideas for the exhibition, but in the meantime, if you have any questions, let me know.
Cheers,

Monster World collection has just been released on PSN and XBLA. Emulation is handled by M2 so it supposedly amazing. Everyone really needs to pick this up. It also contains the first english release of Monster World 4 which is one of the best metroid type games ever made. I'm pretty sure I read that in has loads of bonuses as well like including every version of each game, so if it came on a different platform it is included and each regional variation as well.Hi All,

What's the theme and what type of exhibitions are you looking at? Is it the history of games or about the tech or are you going to put a few consoles out with examples of games on them?

Shame on us for not reading the page properly!
http://www.sciencegallery.com/game
GAME is Science Gallery’s end of year exhibition for 2012. We are interested in receiving proposals for exhibits, events and workshops along the following themes,- Game Technology from state of the art physics, graphics, animation and audio to augmented reality to cutting edge interfaces to neuro-gaming
- Game Design from the art of games, to the mechanics of games and game narratives and storytelling
- Games & Society from gamification to competitive games to the psychology of gaming and serious games to gaming as a professional sport to the opportunity for gaming to make us better
- History of Games from Spacewar! to the first home consoles to speculative pieces exploring the future of gaming
- Game production and the business of games – what do game designers consider in developing a new game, how do games make money and what are the new trends in this growing market?
We could certainly help out with the History of Games theme!
The objectives are listed on there also.0 -
