The Screaming Trees

Greetings, Kotaku readers. You’re welcome to join us in tonight’s open thread, where conversation not just about video games happens. But you can talk about video games if you’d like. We’re not going to rap your knuckles.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; [[link]] cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); This weekend’s going to be a little crazy for me, with Call of Duty XP happening nearby. There’s a Modern Warfare 3 event coming up, where things are bound to happen, but it’s the two-day-long CODXP event that will occupy my time. So much for a three day weekend! (Anyone going, by the way?) Here are a few links to spice up your night. Please, talk amongst yourselves in the [[link]] comments below. Damon Lindelof’s love letter to Raiders of the Lost Ark – “I remember with great clarity the last time I peed my pants.” Don Cheadle as Captain Planet – The scariest Captain Planet ever. Astrophysicist shows why it takes so long to board a plane – The Steffen method sounds great. Wacom’s Inkling tech looks interesting – Sketch on paper, import to Illustrator, Photoshop, etc. The White Stripes’ Jack White and ICP finally team up – Of course.
