Capcom has released a neat little cinematic/fight teaser trailer for their upcoming game Super Street Fighter IV. The video features two fighters duking it out over a black background with funky white scribble blooming from the screen. While there’s no gameplay footage the trailer is pretty neat aesthetically.

One of the best things about this time of the season is that we get to whip out our stylish hoodies, especially over here in Jersey where the smog blocks out the sun. We’ve seen a fair share of cool hoodies in our day, but none that explore the majesty of Super Mario. I’m pretty sure it’s a law that ...

Whenever I go camping I have to make sure I have enough room for all of my various openers. A bottle cap opener for the beer, can opener for the beans, a bottle twister for the antacid. So you can imagine my extreme excitement (it involved jumping up and down, shouting and a changed pair of shorts. I love my ...

Mmm… feel like chugging down a mug of… whatever that warm, brown liquid is? The Toilet Mug takes one of the most popular beverages in the world and makes it one of the least appetizing. Your dog will have a blast. If for some odd reason you actually want the Toilet Mug you can grab one for around $16. Or ...

The universe is in peril and you have a front row seat. Thankfully for you, the universe can’t see you back. So go ahead, massage those balls, shave that asshole, we’re not looking.

I could see this working in a awesome in a totally pixel-themed room, but other than that this shit will just look out of place and pretty useless. I love it, but ...

Even though I’m all-man, I don’t mind being a puss every once in a while and cooking for my woman. Cooking usually equals ordering a pizza and saying I made it from scratch. The problem with this plan is that most cookery is made for ladies, as is the nature of things. So I need a pizza cutter that’s really ...

90’s children’s cartoon characters + Mortal Kombat fatalities = pure awesomeness. Pixel artist Jude Buffum created these two prints, one featuring Carebear ripping out Teddy Ruxpin’s heart, the other featuring Strawberry Shortcake being decapitated by Rainbow Brite. If wanting to own these prints is criminally insane, consider me a high-priority patient of Arkham.

After almost a year in development, Microsoft today releases their freeware Microsoft Security Essentials, a free anti-malware product replacing the hot mess that is Windows Live OneCare. All I can say is it’s about time that Microsoft, the creator of the BSOD, had a free anti-malware alternative. Kudos to Crazy Uncle Ballmer for getting the ball rolling, but really this ...

Artist Thomas S. Kuebler creates wax sculptures featuring freaks, horrors and legends. Pictured above is his ultra-realistic sculpture of Schlitzie, perhaps the most famous and beloved pin-head in both freak show and pop culture history. Link [via]
