The Geektastic Gordon Freeman Wearable Lego Mask
We've featured so many fantastic Lego builds here on Bit Rebels that there are too many to count. Some of the creations are absolutely mind-boggling and took months if not years to make. Some of them took hundreds of thousands of Lego bricks to complete.
One thing I've learned since we've been wr ...
For Stylish Geeks: The Super Mario Mushroom Bracelet
Somehow I've managed to work my way back around to Super Mario Bros. again. I learned a lot from that game, and when kids these days want to play it, I don't understand why parents get so upset about it sometimes. There are a lot of hidden lessons to be learned from playing that game.
There are e ...
Pixel Galaxy: Awesome Homage To Retro Game Boy Graphics
Anyone who knows me knows that I am a sucker for 8-bit graphics. I simply love the old and retro way games used to look.

The Mac Daddy Collection Of Apple Logo Tattoos [20 Pics]
We write about tattoos a lot on Bit Rebels. It's pretty funny when I think about it because I don't even have any tattoos. I've been talking about getting one for a few years now, but as of yet, I haven't seen a design that inspires me enough to actually do it. Richard on the other hand, well... let ...

Pica Pic: Play All Those Retro Handheld Games Online!
I think almost everyone got to play the small handheld monochrome gaming pods when they were kids. It was the coolest gadget a kid could have, and we walked around with it to let everyone else see us play it. That's how us geeks did it, and we always watched to see if there were any other kids aroun ...
A Different WTF: The Star Wars Theme Song In French
Most of the time I can't believe that there will actually be something even weirder after I have seen something that you could only describe as out of this world. But as sure as there will be snow in the winter, there is always something that shows up that is even beyond what I had just seen. Of cou ...
Comic-Con Circa 1988: Take A Walk Back In Time
I've had a blast watching all the tweets about Comic-Con this week. If you go Twitter Search and put in #ComicCon, you'll see a never-ending stream of tweets flowing that are funny, witty and weird. The pictures of the cosplay are always my favorite. I've never been to Comic-Con, but it's on my buck ...

There is a movement out there that is focused on pixel art, and it's growing by the thousands each day. It's not exactly the most well known community, but it's one that is constantly trying to revive the pixel artwork that we have all been familiar with since we were kids.

Retro Tattoos Dedicate Skin To Pac-Man
Everyone who has been following me lately on Facebook has seen a picture of me getting a new tattoo. I haven't disclosed what it is because to me, tattoos are as personal as anything. Unless it's a creative outburst, there is little reason to shout it out on the Internet. This is just my own opinion ...
Mind Numbing Retro Gadgets Made Out Of Paper
I wonder how long it will be until we completely ditch the paper we keep printing on every day. I mean, with all these new gadgets and devices being released, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a new kind of gadget that really came close to paper yet didn't have to be thrown away or recycled once ...
