Here’s the highlights: Star Wars: The Old Republic New video card for PC Work is nuts Going on honeymoon Thursday Star Wars: The Old Republic A bunch of other stuff that’s...

iOS Users: Need Some Wallpapers?
Hello, folks! I’m please to announce the (very early) release of the new Zomgrei Wallpapers site! Currently it’s just a few iPhone-sized wallpapers, but I feel like there’s no reliable resources to get mobile device wallpapers in one go. So, the end goal is to cover iPhone, iPad, Android phone and tablet devices. Check...
New add-on for Deus Ex: Human Revolution to include redesigned boss fights
With Deus Ex: Human Revolution the boss battles were outsourced, which meant that while the rest of the game put a big emphasis on the stealth of the player, the boss fights required more force and brutality. If this was not how a player had been playing the game up to that moment, it...

Haven’t You Seen Any Zombie Movies?
Recently, I was thinking about zombies. This is fairly typical for me, since I’m a zombie fan, especially when it comes to video games. However, my most recent train of thought intrigued me enough to post it here on my blog. I have been knee-deep in Dead Island, and of course smattering in Left4Dead (1/2)...
I Lied!
So I promised myself that with this iteration of Zomgrei, I’d keep it updated with all the awesome geeky stuff in the universe. I employed the services of the wonderfully talented and intelligent (and geeky!) Miah. She even updated after I stopped. But then it just died altogether. So, I feel badly for letting...
Emperor Penguins = The Enterprise?
Apparently, Emperor Penguins are able to move power from “the shields to the warp core” – an analogy given by io9′s Tim Berribeau to explain the Emperor Penguin’s ability to be under water for 20 minutes at a time without running out of oxygen when their oxygen storage is significantly less than that time. The penguins can...
The Geek Zodiac
I know I’m a couple of days late, but still thought I’d share. This is the Geek Zodiac, thought up by James Wright and designed by Josh Eckert. What’s your birth a sign of in geekdom? Click for full-size.
Google Chrome laptop for students: $20/month?
Google is purportedly going to release its Google Chrome laptop for $20/month to students. This cloud-based notebook will give traditionally economically stressed students the opportunity to have a system for school at a low price. There are several questions this proposition poses, however. Will Google solve the issue of being not connected to wi-fi...
LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean: Toys & The Game (You Just Lost It!)
The new Pirates of the Caribbean Video Game just hit the shelves yesterday! I’m a sucker for LEGO games, so this is one to pick up. The game will have over 70 characters, drop-in/drop-out co-op, 20 levels (5 for each movie), and all the LEGO stud and brick constructing (or deconstructing) action you could...
