I think it is a great way for Ben's work to be further publicized, but I don't know if it's great for him. I mean. think of all the 360 and PS3 Laptop requests he gets today! Can you imagine it when nearly double his current fan base finds out about his work? Man, I just want to see what happens!

If you listened to the other podcast Ben is on, you'd have known this (among other upcoming projects) like two weeks ago. Still cool, though.

Anyone else got a broken image there on the front page?
If not, maybe just a repost of what it looks like?
Thanks,

Ok, I will... I've only listened to one or two :P (nothing to take personally, I rarely listen to podcasts in general)

I already have far, far more requests than I could ever handle (been like that for years) so it's no big deal to me.

What I really need is to hire people on / start a real business sort of thing.... ;)

Hey Ben do you ever get absolutely stupid requests. Like portable lamps or something.

And you sound like a conceited little 13-year-old troll. :lol: Perhaps I should've added a smiley of some sort. It was meant to be a plug for Warpath more than anything, as I'm a fan and have recently got involved with their site.

I'm guessing that THQ sorta asked him to make a 360 laptop as they know how popular they are.

It's called a flashlight with the reflector and lense taken off.
