A Little Bit On The Phoenix Wright Side: Remember that live action version of Ace Attorney being directed by Takashi Miike that we told you about forever ago? Well, now you can get an iPhone app featuring actor Hiroki Narimiya as Phoenix Wright yelling catchphrases from the game. The app is calle “Minna de Igiari!” or “Object Together!” and a Droid version will eventually be released at some point, so don’t be jelly, Droid users. Oh! And the app even has a demo of the Ace Attorney game, which you should totally play if you haven’t already.
The live-action Ace Attorney hits theaters in Japan on February 11th.

Official Minecraft LEGO Sets? Yes Please!
It has been confirmed that there will be official LEGO sets for the popular sandbox game, Minecraft.
Back in December, Mojang petitioned LegoCuusoo to create actual Minecraft LEGOs. LegoCuuso being an official branch of the LEGO company. Today, they said there was enough support (more than 10,000 people!) for the idea to pass:
“We’re happy to announce that the Minecraft project on LEGO CUUSOO has passed the LEGO review and we are now developing a concept that celebrates the best aspects of building with the LEGO system and in Minecraft. We can’t wait to show it to you-but it isn’t ready just yet. These things take time, so we appreciate your patience. More details are to come.”

Text Mode Demo Contest
Text / Unicode Art taken to computational extreme in this demoscene contest.
Anyone familiar with the demoscene knows that it is a programming festival / activity where groups create graphical demos, programmed art pieces to demonstrate the graphical powers of computers.
Sometimes, with some competitions, it is to get as much out of the computer within certain limits (for example, a full demo in a small amount of memory space such as 64k or even 4k), and in this case, the graphics can only be displayed in the most limited mode a computer has available: Text Mode.
The video above is from the winner of the most recent contest. It is called ‘Lick Weed’ and is by the demo group Brainstorm. It has to be said, though, that the video above doesn’t really do it justice to the visual effect, and should be seen in it’s original executable form [you can get it via the Demoscene portal Pouet here, although it is PC only]. Second place was ‘Disambiguation’ by npli [Youtube link here]
More about the Text Mode Demo Contest can be found here
This post was discovered via the Tumblr Blog The Demo Scene, and is a good resource for those that may want to find out more about it.

Good Guy Freeman. You didnt even have to ask him. He did it before you woke up this morning, so you know, not to disturb you.
