Apartment Arcade: Passersby Play Game Through Window

30 Jan

[ By Steph in Gaming & Computing & Technology. ]

Apartment Arcade 1

A large storefront window in a Belgian designer’s work/live space invites passersby to pause and play an arcade game with a fun interactive installation. Where others living in such a busy urban location might want to prevent strangers from peering into their private spaces, Kris Temmerman asks them to stop and stay a while.

Tennerman designed and created the entire thing himself, including the console that’s currently attached to the exterior windowsill and the LED screen. The game is run on an Arduino without an external computer, just to make the process a little more challenging.

The game is also his own creation, and he even had a friend record the music. “I needed something that would appeal to a large audience (the people in my street) and something was fun to play. So I took the good old gaming cliché, where the world gets invaded by aliens and you have to fight your way to the end boss, save the world and the human race . With my minimal resolution of 16*90 pixels, I didn’t have much other choice than making it pixel-art style.”

The entire process, including diagrams of the wiring, can be found in detail at Tennerman’s website.

Chaos Reborn: Kowloon Walled City Rebuilt as Arcade

13 Sep

[ By Steph in Global & Travel & Places. ]

Kowloon Walled City Arcade 1
Kowloon Walled City, the lawless metropolis just outside Hong Kong, was evacuated and destroyed – but there is still one place in the world where it can be experienced almost as it really was, in a safer and more sanitized setting. Visitors to the Kawasaki Warehouse Amusement Game Park located between Tokyo and Yokohama can slip into those dark, virtually airless passages long after their disappearance to get a sense of what it must have been like to live in a packed dystopian city run by the mob.

David of Randomwire visited Kawasaki to get a glimpse of it himself, revealing a recreation that takes you from a faux-rusted factory exterior into dingy alleyways modeled on those of Kowloon. David describes it as “grimy, devoid of sunlight and complete with a soundtrack to match.”

Many of the items found within these halls, including the signs, are based on those that can be seen in old photos and videos of the city. Gambling dens and illegal services of all varieties can be seen just beyond hazy panes of glass. See lots more photos in large sizes at Randomwire.

The real Kowloon Walled City was once packed with at least 50,000 inhabitants in just 6.5 acres, full of refugees, squatters and those looking to evade the law. After its demolition in 1993, it became the site of a vast park full of gardens, ponds and trails.

Mortal Kombat Longplay Arcade Mode

22 Feb

Sorry i loose in the final boss, one of my first time’s playing and could not defeat shao kahn. But i hope you enjoy the gameplay. thank you for watching. no bad comments please. Mortal Kombat returns to earn its most brutal and flawless victory yet. Battle through the original Mortal Kombat tournament in a new story as you try to alter the events of the past in an attempt to save the future. Fight as and against iconic characters including Raiden, Johnny Cage and Scorpion. Go fist-to-fist with your friends via tag team, co-op arcade and team online modes. Playable in amazing stereoscopic 3D. Presentation Paint the town red From a flash of its animated main menu screen, Mortal Kombat on PlayStation 3 impresses with spectacular visuals. The grand scale of the tournament is displayed with brilliant animation from both the intimidating fighters and the dynamic locations. NetherRealm Studios drags you into this fearsome competition with a range of detailed and convincing effects that are memorable and fitting for the brutal world of Mortal Kombat. While each warrior has their own fighting style and mannerisms, they also suffer gruesome battle damage as the fight progresses, complementing the slick looking action. If you have a compatible stereoscopic 3D TV then proceedings become even livelier as weapons, beaten fighters and other elements fly out of the screen during bouts. All of these visuals are nicely brought together with some bone crunching sound effects, battle taunts …
