Back in the game

Hey everyone. It's been quite a while since I've had any updates worth writing about so I took a couple months on the back burner. In the mean time, completed Mass Effect, twice. Hopefully going for the insane playthrough sometime soon. It's just retarded difficult. Something tells me I wouldn't have it any other way. I have a couple of things to share. First on the Agenda, me and my friend David and making a new Skate 2 skate vid. If you actually read this blog, I'm sure you remember the first Skate 2 video I did. We're throwing around ideas and filming in game lines while we go out and actually film some real skateboarding. It's been a couple of years since the last time I filmed... well, anything of that nature. So I'm pretty pumped on it. In preparation for this upcoming vid, I've put together a short preview vid.



It features gameplay from David and I.Strictly TPR crew. Even the music is done by my good friend, Katiah. Speaking of Katiah's music, he recently put his first Mixtape online for free download. It features a bunch of good songs and is completely free. What have you got to lose?

I've also been doing a lot of digital artwork. I'll share some of that too.

So, Let's give it up for the New Year!

What I'm playing!


Happy New Year!! How did you all spend your new years eve? Hope it went well.


The other day, I was browsing and an article came up about a presumed line of Star Wars Adidas collaboration sneakers. Buncha cool looking ones, some not so much. Here are my favorites:








The rest of the line can be viewed at http://www.forkparty.com/star-wars-adidas-shoes/


It made me think about similar geek items I've seen. I'm sure most people are now familiar with the Back to the future hyperdunks, aka the Air McFly's :






Nowadays, you see many Star Wars Inspired designs coming from all kinds of companies. Ecko released a huge line of Star Wars clothing



Some designer even took a flip approach and made a Ecko inspired Star Wars logo



New Era, no stranger to Geeky hatseven got in on the action with a whole slew of Star Wars Caps.




Star Wars isn't the only fan favorite getting in on the action. Official and custom non-official products for all kinds of popular series have popped up.


Custom Akuma kicks



Decepticons Soundwave and Megatron get their own kicks courtesy of Nike

Here are some random Geek inspired skate board designs



Santa Cruz USB stick! sick.


Alright that's all I got for now. I have a few ideas brewing to make this a great 2010 and and a strong blogging year!
Peace, Marcus AKA

Info on Nick Mullins

Hello everyone. As you know, I'm a very avid skater. I like to keep up with what's going on in the culture and the scene. A couple of months ago, Steve Berra told the story of Nick Mullins on his wildly popular skate website, The Berrics . Nick is a promising young skater who fell ill and had to have an operation for a Staph infection which was spreading to his heart and lungs. At this point, the doctor's had given him a 1% chance at survival, but pulled through the infection. After this operation, Nick began recovery and began to lose his eyesight. It is suspected that during his hospital time the infection made its way to his eyes. According to Berra in his latest video update on Nick's condition, he's had one operation of the four now needed. During all of this, Nick's hospital bills have been building up and becoming increasingly higher. In response, Steve Berra and the Berrics are having T-shirts printed to help support Nick in his struggles. 100% of the money will go toward's Nick's medical bills. The Shirts look great and it's for the best cause I've heard of in a long time, so why don't you all check it out? The shirts can be found at the Berrics website in their online store, The Canteen . If you're looking for more information on Nick, it could be found on http://www.youtube.com/user/cky2k04. There are videos which update his condition and even Feature Nick himself speaking about what's been going on.

P.S. I wrote a review for the Brutal Legend demo and my stupid mac crashed or something, now it's gone. I might write another,I might not. whatever.

Some Have Their Machinima... I got this

Currently Listening to:
Julia Nunes
Odd



How's it going fools? Hope people who actually read this blog are well. This previous Saturday Night, a couple of friends and I went to go see Julia Nunes aka the youtube ukulele girl. She's a lot of fun and talented.



Good tidings Julia Nunes. Her music and other stuff can be found on her youtube page: http://www.youtube.com/user/jaaaaaaa

Now, onto the game stuff. As the title says, some people enjoy making or watching machinima (animated filmmaking within a real-time virtual 3D environment - mostly using video games technology, for any the rest of y'all). I have been talking about messing around with the idea of a skate skateboard video ever since the first came out. Thanks to EA's new and improved skate.reel, it was very easy to gather all the footage I uploaded (other than the fact that FLV files dont like to work with anything). The best part was putting it all together and the entire editing prcoess. I love getting technical that way. Here is the final product of my little venture. Enjoy!
