Enter The Gungeon

August 14th, 2015

Ok, so it might be a bit too early to be talking about this game, since it’s slated for a 2016 release and there’s not a whole lot of info out about it yet, but it looks interesting enough: guns, a gungeon, anthropomorphic bullets that shoot guns (they’re called the Gundead), tables you can flip to block bullets shot from guns, and a gun that can kill the past. Looks right up my alley.

I’ll be keeping my eye out for this one.

World Of Guns: Gun Disassembly

August 13th, 2015

World of Guns: Gun Disassembly is an in-depth firearms assembly simulator which features high quality 3D models of a fair number of real-world firearms, with more being added over time. The player can fully disassemble the firearm, look at its operation and function through multiple levels of x-ray, and can even test it out on a virtual range. Plus, the developers have also added in a few vehicles, and the skeletal structures of multiple animals, human included.

It’s free-to-play, but additional content will cost money.

    Rest In Peace, Rowdy Roddy Piper

    August 1st, 2015

    For those who don’t know, Roderick “Roddy” George Toombs, better known by his professional name Rowdy Roddy Piper, passed away in his sleep yesterday in his Hollywood home. Although TFB has some knowledge of his wrestling career, we know him best for his ionic role as John Nada in the 1988 sci-fi classic, They Live. As such, we’re reposting one of many iconic scenes from that film, and in our opinion the greatest fight scene ever put to cinema:

    DPX GEAR INTRODUCES THE DPX ACULUS 3D, A MONOBLOCK GENTLEMAN’S KNIFE CARVED FROM A SOLID BLOCK OF TITANIUM ALLOY

    July 30th, 2015

    San Diego, CA – July 29, 2015 – DPx Gear, Inc. has released the new monoblock frame gentleman’s knife, the DPx Aculus 3D. It is available in a limited run of 100 pieces available exclusively from DPx Gear and ready for immediate shipment.

    Aculus

    The DPx Aculus is a hard use gentleman’s knife carved from a single block of 6Al4v titanium alloy. Designed by adventurer Robert Young Pelton after seeing the poor quality and limited strength of traditional military and law enforcement knives, he decided to create an incredibly strong and compact knife. The Aculus is an every day carry tool with beautifully fluid lines, exquisite ergonomics, and a tough blade of the highest quality and finish. The frame is a single seamless machined piece of art, elegantly held together with only two screws. The Aculus was designed for undercover work, where professionals must dress in formal wear but must carry tools that cannot fail. The ergonomics had to work as a knife but also as a concealed hand held tool capable of dealing non-lethal pain to attackers.

    The DPx Aculus 3D features a unique 3D diamond pattern for superior grip, a tungsten carbide glass breaker with replacement flat head screw, a deep carry pocket clip, razor sharp Niolox tool steel, and DPx Gear’s no-questions-asked lifetime warranty. MSRP for the DPx Aculus 3D is $400 and can be purchased only by visiting www.dpxgear.com/aculus.
