Angry Birds: This Time As Real Life Game Play
Some consider Angry Birds to be one of the most addicting games of all time, and I am ready to agree. However, for me it's not just that I like playing it, but that I actually have to make sure I clear each level with a three star rating. And believe me, it's easier said than done! You have to find ...
iPad & Kindle Book Cases: The Hobbit, Sherlock Holmes…
You know, now that the iPad and the Kindle (and all the rest of the tablets) are furiously entering the market with eBooks, there is a huge decline in the number of people who actually go to the library anymore. This in itself is causing a real problem that I don't think we all know or think about. ...
Ornithology: The Real Birds Behind The Angry Birds
When you play a game, do you ever stop to think about where the idea must have come from? Me neither, but I am sure there are people out there that actually think about that.

Freakish Urban Improv: Super Mario Kart In Real Life!
I have seen quite a lot of geeky things after such a long time here at Bit Rebels. But, I never cease to be amazed at the creativity people are able to churn out from their head domes.

World’s Most Kick Ass Insert Coin Animation With Real Coins
I remember playing the arcade games, especially the pinball machines, in the arcade halls when I was younger. Unfortunately, most of them were closed and shut down long ago. The magic of entering a hall full of 8-bit music and people cheering for each other is what I miss the most, and I have no i ...
8-Bit Interview: Game Characters Apply For Real Jobs…
Applying for a job can be quite scary if you know your skills are just below what is expected and required for the job. Still, some people polish their application and add things that are not completely true. Why do they do this? It seems it's more common than you would think, and it's a way for ...

Right now TRON is on everyone's lips, and it's hard to find a place or gadget that hasn't been Tronified.

Finally A Real QWERTY Keyboard For The iPhone 4!
It's on everyone's wish list pretty much, and it's something that Apple just hasn't looked into, yet. Maybe they never will, but I am sure many people would like to have the opportunity to be able to choose if they want to use the touch screen keyboard to type or a real QWERTY keyboard. There are ...
How To: Draw Real Time 3D Images On A 2D Surface
It has long been the limit of the Wacom board, for example, to draw 3D images (in real time) on a 2D surface. Usually the "z" axis has been lacking in its presence and you have had to do that on a computer where you have this whole mouse/interface thing going on. Sure, there are plenty of 3D softw ...

Everyone gets a little retro every now and then. It's in everyone's nature. Traveling down memory lane makes us think that whatever was present then is cool now. Most of the time it's really not, but sometimes you stumble over something that really takes the cool up a notch. With the iPad being ...
Space Invaders | In Real Life!
I remember playing Space Invaders at the local arcade and spending a lot of coins on that game. It was probably one of the last, still functional, arcades of the game when I was young that had remnants from the early beginning of video games. Who cared about the graphics and the sounds, it was the ...
