J!NX: We Love the Smell of Fresh Data in the Morning

from J!NX:

New Design Arcade Winner: Lost Mythos
If you’re current on your ancient mythology, then you’ll know that the legend of the Minotaur states that the terrible beast resided in a vast labyrinth, demanding a sacrifice of “maidens” to sate his rage. However, a new insight from Minion vintz has revealed that the Minotaur’s rage actually stemmed from being perpetually lost in that blasted maze, and he really just wanted the maidens to help him with directions. The Greeks embellished a few details to keep their history spicy. Silly Greeks. Thanks vintz, for another epic Design Arcade achievement!

New J!NX Classic T-Shirt: Zombie Love
When one human loves another human, a vast array of declarations are available to communicate that feeling — cards, candy, sonnets, etc. But what happens when one zombie loves another zombie? It’s much harder for a walking corpse to express its true feelings. There is one thing, though, that all zombies recognize (even when their eyes, ears and tongues have rotted out of thier skull), and that is BRAAAAINNSSS. What better way to celebrate your undying affection than over a healthy serving of grey matter?

Big Things Are A-Brewin’ in the J!NX Community!
The J!NX Community page is experiencing a flood of new and exciting additions lately. Firstly, our very first Fresh Data webisode has been launched with great success. If you’ve ever wondered what makes the J!NX Crew tick, what they’re into, what makes them rage, or what makes them laugh hysterically, clickity-click on that link and subscribe to the channel for more episodes as they come out. We’ve also got a sweet set of game reviews from Hanbanana, where he shares his thoughts on Dead Space 2, WoW Cataclysm, and what to do when your server is down. Finally, another stanza has been added to Brolo’s Brolog, describing a gamer’s thoughts on football, and the spectacle of The Superbowl. All of this, and more, await you on our Community Page, so make sure you stop by soon and join the fun!

Wizard or What… Harry Potter Theme Park to Open in UK

Harry Potter Theme Park

from The Daily Mirror:

Film company Warner Bros have earmarked a site at Leavesden Studios near London where all eight Harry ­Potter movies have been shot.

And they have hired the same team who worked their magic on the first Potter theme park in ­Orlando.

Harry Potter author JK Rowling is an enthusiastic supporter of the idea of a UK park, saying: “I would love it if they could do it as well as they have in Florida.”

Warner Bros bought the ­sprawling 170-acre site outside Watford in a £100million deal last year. At the time they outlined low-key plans for a modest “visitor attraction” at the former Rolls-Royce factory.

VIZ Media Debuts “MÄR” and “Hikaru no Go” Anime Across Multiple Online Outlets

from VIZ Media:

VIZ Media has announced the availability of hit anime series Hikaru no Go and MÄR for Download-To-Rent / Download-To-Own (DTR/DTO) from leading online content providers iTunes, PlayStation Network, and Amazon Video on Demand.

The complete series for Hikaru no Go (Episodes 1-75) and MÄR (Episodes 1-52) will be presented dubbed and uncut, and will be available immediately from the iTunes Store in the U.S. (iTunes.com) and Canada (iTunes.ca). As a special promotion, Episode 1 from each series will be available for FREE download through August 23, 2011!

Amazon Video on Demand and the PlayStation Network video delivery service, available exclusively for the Sony PSP (PlayStation Portable) and PlayStation 3 (PS3) entertainment systems, will offer Season 1 of Hikaru no Go and MÄR, beginning with Episodes 1-3. New installments will be released every Monday. Episode 1 from each series will be available for FREE download through March 22, 2011.

All episodes are $0.99 each for Download-To-Rent and $1.99 for Download-To-Own across all platforms.

Hikaru no Go is a unique story that revolves around the ancient Japanese strategy game of Go, and is based on the manga written by Yumi Hotta and illustrated by Takeshi Obata (also published domestically by VIZ Media). Hikaru Shindo is like any sixth-grader in Japan: a pretty normal kid with a two-tone head of hair and a penchant for antics. His life completely changes when he finds an old bloodstained Go board in his grandfather’s attic. The ghost of an ancient Go master named Fujiwara-no-Sai was trapped in the board and soon becomes a part of Hikaru’s consciousness. Together Hikaru and Sai make an unstoppable Go-playing team!

MÄR is based on the hit manga series by Nobuyuki Anzai (creator also of Flame of Recca), published in North America by VIZ Media. An ordinary middle-school boy with an overactive imagination, Ginta Toramizu dreams about fairy tales and make-believe lands. One day at school, a gate appears and he enters the World of MÄR, the world of his dreams. Within the World of MÄR exist ÄRM: accessories with unique powers. Soon, Ginta stumbles upon Babbo, an ÄRM that can speak, and learns that he has been summoned to this mythical world to stop the Chess Pieces, a group of rogue soldiers, from destroying the World of MÄR. Now part of Team MÄR, Ginta and Babbo fight in War Games against the Chess Pieces to save the MÄR World. But will Ginta’s mission be compromised by his ally’s secrets?
