So Louis Vuitton, some sort of trendy fashion company, recently had Lightning (protagonist of Final Fantasy XIII) model some dresses and handbags in a series of ads. I thought it was a strange cross-promotion, but ultimately no different than a drawing of a design, or a mannequin wearing the clothes in a store.

And then they interviewed her.

I guess the "virtual idol" thing has finally kicked off...?

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

While I question his fashion capabilities, that does sound pretty amazing.

The sheer amount of quality artwork fans have poured into custom levels of Platform Racing 2, a rather obscure dead browser game is kind of mind boggling.

They originally intended Aki Ross from Spirits Within for a similar purpose; they wanted to use the model for more CGI movies.

But hey, even a superpowered fantasy badass needs something to do and some form of income after the smoke clears and the world is saved, right?

I found an old edutainment game that I used to play, Timez Attack. It's the oldest game I know of that was created with the Unity 3D engine, although of course it's been massively updated from the version I played as a youngun. It's also the newest edutainment game I know of that isn't shovelware, although nobody in their right mind should pay $100 for it.

The OOCQ thread just got locked by OP:

I still have lock powers. Just cause I've basically left the forum at this point doesn't mean you can taunt DERMONSTER!
I can actually taunt the Derm. Taunt. Taunt.

Edit: I realize I maybe picked the wrong thread and that this post can be misinterpreted. I mean no offense to either quoted person; I just wanted to share a piece of everyday weirdness.
Just as planned.
