Vodafone Taxi GP

A nice idea here from the guys at Dare. Vodafone are sponsoring the McLaren Team and it looks like they have created a game to celebrate the sponsorship.

The video below explains how it works far better than I ever will.



They have also done a promotional video featuring LH and HK the drivers for McLaren - which is quite sweet and has Barry from Eastenders fame in it too - bonus.



Overall very nice although it does have similarities to the seminal work of 'Monopoly Live' that Ben worked on at Tribal DDB and I'm sure the same person at Dare worked on both too ;-)

80's Computer Nostalgia

I just complained because the new game we have just developed for Drench took about 5 seconds to load on the website. Then Deep reminded me of how long we used to wait for our kicks back in the 80's. I go nostalgic for those old sounds of computer games loading on tape machines and found this. If oyu are old like me you will remember it.

At the time I hated the sound but hearing it again was quite nice - for about 5 seconds anyway. Got to love the guy doing his impression of a dial up modem.
