BikeSpike tracks your stolen two-wheeler

by Dan Seitz

If you’ve decided to use a bike to commute, you’ll quickly come across a common problem: Bikes are really, really easy to steal and really, really hard to find once stolen.

The BikeSpike not only solves this problem, it serves as a fitness tracker and collision warning system as well.

Essentially the BikeSpike is disguised with a water bottle cage. You point your smartphone at it, press a button, and the tracker is on: If your bike moves outside a predetermined boundary, you’ll be alerted and be able to post live GPS information online, or send it directly to the police.

Here’s the standard issue twee video that explains everything:

Beyond the anti-theft features, it uses accelerometers to determine just how hard your commute is working you out, and those same sensors can be programmed to automatically text a set list of people in case you experience some form of impact.

You will have to subscribe to a yearly plan in order to get the monitoring, but on the bright side, you’ll know how many calories you’re burning, and how much exercise the thief that stole your bike is getting before the cops drop on him like the Hammer of Thor.

Rumor: New Strider coming to XBLA, PC, Double Helix involved

by JC Fletcher
Karchy0

I hope this is true...and I hope that it lives up to the original (Arcade or home version)

Rumor Strider coming to XBLA, PCNeoGAF user canIhasAnAccount discovered a temporary XBLA box art and banner for a new Strider game. Subsequently, users found a Strider entry on the Steam database, complete with icon of Strider Hiryu's face from the Capcom ninja series.

To extrapolate further, user Sega1991 found a Steam Community page connected by number with the leaked Steam information, posted by a user "ascarlston" whose profile offers a first name "Andrew." A quick search finds one Andrew Carlston in the game industry, a junior programmer at Double Helix. He's Steam friends with someone named Jorge Oseguera, a name belonging to a producer at Double Helix. Double Helix is the studio behind Silent Hill: Homecoming, as well as Front Mission Evolved and the Battleship game (based on the movie based on the game.)

As we find ourselves trapped deep within this rabbit hole, we called out to Capcom for verification of any of this. Capcom told Joystiq only that "We have made no announcements in regards to that title." In the absence of more info about that, why not look back at the last attempted Strider reboot, by GRIN Barcelona?

Ladies, You Can Finally Own a Shirtless Hugh Jackman Toy

It's Diamond Select's official figure from The Wolverine, featuring three sets of hands (adamantium, bone, or no claw). I don't think a movie Logan has ever been available bare-chested in this scale - obviously, the higher-end Hot Toys versions have had removable clothing over a more generic body, but this is specifically sculpted to resemble Hugh's physique. And hey, with the bonus heads you can finally create that custom Jean Valjean or Leopold figure you never ever wanted. Source: Comic Book Movie via The Mary Sue

In today’s Must See Imagery we take a look at some complicated mathematical formulas, cleavage packed demotivational posters, and more! Aggregating content from the web’s hottest sources: Facebook, Tumblr, Imgur (often via Reddit), amongst others, we’re able to save you those precious man hours that can be used for things like grilling red meat, or wondering who the hell that sexy girl was in that commercial you just saw. If you come across any photos you think should be included in this daily feature then head on over HERE and post them to our Facebook wall, and I’ll be sure to include them (provided they don’t suck, and you actually understand what funny is).

Dave Bautista is in ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy’

by K. Thor Jensen

bautista Dave Bautista is in Guardians Of The Galaxy

WWE


And Jim Carrey isn’t. This is basically good news for everybody. Guardians Of The Galaxy is the bizarre outlier in Marvel’s upcoming superhero slate. The protagonists are a team of space-faring rejects that include a talking raccoon, his best friend a sentient tree, and a couple dudes in weird helmets. So not exactly Spider-Man caliber name recognition here.

The film has just started casting, with Chris Pratt (from Parks & Recreation and Zero Dark Thirty) getting the lead role of Peter Quill, aka Star-Lord, and now the Hollywood Reporter has the scoop on who’s playing the meaty green psychopath known as Drax the Destroyer.

A number of Hollywood’s buffest actors were in line for the part, including Jason Momoa (Conan), Isaiah Mustafa (the Old Spice guy) and Patrick Wade. But the part went to former WWE wrestler and current mixed martial artist Dave Bautista. Bautista has been pursuing acting more intensely in recent years, and he will also play the antagonist in the upcoming Riddick opposite Vin Diesel.

Drax is a pretty bizarre character in the comic books – he was an ordinary suburban dad killed for no reason by the superpowerful Thanos, then raised from the grave by some other cosmic entity, turned green and given immeasurable strength and durability. He’s also not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Thankfully, some other recent casting rumors were also dispelled this week. We previously mentioned that both Jim Carrey and Adam Sandler were in line for roles in the film, which would… not be good. Carrey busted those rumors at SXSW last week, saying that he’s never even heard of the movie. You and the rest of America, dude.

So we have a sitcom star and a former fake fighter. Who will be next and how do they expect to sell this movie to anybody but the nerdiest of nerds?

Marvel Select Nightcrawler Figure Revealed

I always loved playing as him in the old double-screen arcade game. This figure represents him well save for the teleportation-effect base, which is, alas, pretty sad. If they had come up with one that simulated his "Special Mutant Power" in the game, I would have marked out like crazy. This version ships to comic shops in April.

Louis CK has no interest in woman’s compliments while he’s on stage

by Chris Spags

A woman yelled to Louis C.K., “Your boots are really sexy.” Normally, that’d be a nice thing to say to a man to whom you’d like to provide sexual favors. But not while Louis C.K. is performing, apparently.

It’s also kind of creepy to interrupt anecdotes about his daughters with a compliment on his boots. I bet if someone offered this woman the same praise during a similar time period she’d probably say things like “Oh my god” and “I cannot believe you just said that” and “Please stop touching my feet and groaning while I’m dropping my children off at school.” Women.
