Download Miegakure Demo Video: 4D Puzzle Game For PC and Mac

Miegakure game is an online puzzling game, which is about exploring the fourth dimension to solve puzzles. The game is completely designed and programmed in 4D. It allows for four-dimensional movement at the press of a button one of the dimensions is exchanged with the fourth dimension, otherwise it plays like a regular three-dimensional plat former. This game is wonderful and a real brainteaser.

People can only perceive and move along three spatial dimensions, but are allowed by pressing a button to “swap” one regular dimension with the fourth, invisible dimension. To see inside closed objects, walk through walls, move objects from one dimension to another, hide under 3D shadows of 4D objects, and more, this ability can be used by protagonist. The mathematical concept’s Fourth dimension is made easier to understand by the games medium by being allowed to experience it first-hand, using trial and error, as opposed to being told about it.

For example if there is a wall in the shape of a circle around an object in 2D, it is essentially closed-off, since to reach it one would have to leave the 2D plane. It is also impossible for an outsider to know what is inside.

But us 3D beings can see the object from above, and also simply lift it off the ground to move it outside, essentially teleporting it. Now by analogy, a four-dimensional being could perform many similar miracles to us living in only three-dimensions. This game allows you to perform these “miracles.”

Presently, the game is in development and is aimed to release in downloadable form for consoles and PC/Mac. However, there is no announced date and platform even there is no publicly released demo at this point.

‘Harry Potter’ Movies Re-released In 3D?

Harry Potter Stars

Surprised? No, me neither. After all, what ISN’T being filmed, converted, or re-released in 3D these days.

The two Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows movies are going to be in 3D thanks to undergoing the conversion process which completely failed to bring Alice in Wonderland to life. OK, that’s fine, and not the least bit unexpected.

But the older Harry Potter movies could also be converted in the same way and re-released, at least according to HP producer David Heyman talking to MTV. He said:

Those discussions haven’t yet happened, but I’m sure it’s just a matter of time. You know what? I actually shouldn’t say that. Who knows? It would be great. You can never tell. I hope so.

And I hope not, because what is the point? 3D is here now, an emerging technology, and when it works (Avatar) it works well. But the movies need to be of a certain cinematic quality, and actually filmed in 3D to be worth the effort. While the Harry Potter movies are possibly cinematic enough, they’ve been and gone, and cannot be filmed in 3D. And converted films suck.

Where will this end? Why not go back and convert Gone With The Wind into 3D? Or how about Metropolis? Or the Laurel and Hardy movies? Cinema works because it echoes the present, the now; so leave already-made films as they were originally produced. For the love of all that is holy.


‘The Hangover 2? Is Happening

The Hangover 2

Pretty much as soon as The Hangover was released, there was talk of a sequel. And why not? The original enjoyed a huge (for an R-rated comedy) opening weekend in the U.S., taking $45 million. And it has since gone on to become the most successful R-rated comedy of all time, earning $467 million worldwide.

Director Todd Phillips had ideas for a sequel while filming the original, but it’s taken 9 months of hard negotiations to secure Phillips and the core cast of Zach Galifianakis, Bradley Cooper and Ed Helms.

This is because Warner Bros. didn’t think to include sequel options in the cast’s original contracts, not thinking that The Hangover had any chance of being as big as it was or having the makings of a sequel about it. But it definitely does, and a lot of people around the world will likely flock to see The Hangover 2.

According to Deadline New York, Phillips and the cast are now all on board, but it took a few dollars to make it so. The three leads made less than $300,000 each for the original, but were given a $1 million bonus and will be paid $5 million or 4 percent of the gross takings for the sequel. Phillips is looking at a $10 million payday or 10 percent of the gross takings.

The original The Hangover was made for just $34 million, but the budget for the sequel will be considerably higher. Shooting could begin in October, with a Memorial Day weekend, 2011 release planned.


“Harold and Kumar 3…D”?

harold and kumar

Glad to have you back, boys, but in 3D…? No. 

Some of us may have thought that the “Harold and Kumar” movies were in trouble, or at least in recasting, after star Kal Penn left the acting business to become associate director of the White House Office Of Public Engagement. Well, never fear–Deadline is reporting that Penn is in; he had only committed to one year in the White House job, so apparently he’s out of the White House, or at least on hiatus.

Why, one might ask? Well, for starters, civil service jobs don’t pay nearly as much as six week gigs acting like a stoner. They’re also a lot more work. Might Penn return to politics at some point? Possibly, but you know how it is in Hollywood–if someone offers you a job, you better think long and hard before you turn it down, because you might not get another chance.

The other Harold and Kumar news is that it might be filmed in 3D. Why? Well, no reason other than everything is being filmed in 3D.  


LL Cool J Reacts To His Unwitting Inclusion In Sarah Palin’s Show

Rapper and actor LL Cool J is taking an issue with Sarah Palin’s new show. An ad for Fox’s “Real American Stories” features an old interview of the “NCIS: Los Angeles” star, which he says was lifted without his permission.

Earlier this week, Fox announced that the debut episode for the special will feature guests, including country singer Toby Keith and LL Cool J – whose real name is James Todd Smith.

But it seems that Palin’s show will be lacking one guest when it airs Thursday. The rapper said that the show is misrepresenting its viewers by taking his old interview.

He wrote on his Twitter, “Fox lifted an old interview I gave in 2008 to someone else & are misrepresenting to the public in order to promote Sarah Palins Show. WOW”

Faith Evans Owes Over 0,000 In Taxes

Notorious B.I.G.’s widow needs some help with the IRS. Faith Evans, who is an accomplished R&B singer herself, reportedly owes the Internal Revenue Service more than 0,000 in taxes.

Evans, 36, apparently owes Uncle Sam the staggering amount from the income she earned in New York, New Jersey, and Los Angeles.

According to AllHipHop.com, the IRS filed a ,360 lien against her in New York earlier this month. In February, her L.A. tax debt was revealed to reach 9,821. Last October, a lien against her was filed in the state of New Jersey for 4,000.

Evans has projects coming up. First, a reality show that will follow her as she juggles home life and a singing career, and an album titled “All About Faith.”

Ex-Bodyguard Calls Angelina Jolie "Self-Centered, Control Freak"

Anti-Jolie team surely has something to smirk about. An alleged former bodyguard claims Angelina Jolie is a self-centered control freak and is a true evil in real life.

The ex-employee, known only as Bill, told In Touch Weekly that the “Salt” star is a freak who always yells unreasonable demands to her staff and her children.

Bill said, “In my opinion, the real Angelina is self-centered and a control freak. She has no patience at all. She doesn’t do things out of the kindness of her heart. And she’s totally psycho.”

While her partner Brad Pitt is said to be laid-back and patient with their six kids’ often wild behavior, Angelina would often “disappear into her suite for hours” to leave Brad and the staff to deal with the kids.

Lady Gaga’s Dressing Room Demands Reveal Simple Requests

Lady Gaga’s very presence may be outrageous, but her demands are surprisingly simple. The 24-year-old “Telephone” star reportedly has un-diva like requests in her dressing room during concerts.

Though she is known for wearing a bow hat made of her own hair, glass pieces she calls costume, and a garment fully made of Kermit the Frog dolls, Lady Gaga is said to be actually a simple creature with simple needs.

Her dressing room demands do not contain sky-high priced champagnes and irrelevant things. Instead, she wants a jar of honey, which she lists as a vital item.

According to the list obtained by the Daily Star, she also wants water, Vitamin Water, milk, tea, coffee, Red Bull, fruit juices, and assorted sodas. Worth noting is that while most rock stars and pop superstars demand alcohol in their supply, Gaga wants none of that.

Donatella Versace Spends ,000 In Shades Shopping Spree In 10 Minutes

Renowned Italian fashion designer Donatella Versace is giving the American economy a little boost by shelling out nearly ,000 on sunglasses. The fashion guru spent just 10 minutes at Artsee in New York, but managed to blow a staggering amount.

The blond designer surprised shop assistants at the high-end store in the Meatpacking District when she showed up in her trademark stiletto heels and tight leather minidress and spent that much for pairs of sunglasses in just mere minutes.

A witness told Page Six, “She walked around saying, ‘Amore, this one, and this one, and this one,’ picking up pairs of sunglasses. She must have bought eight pairs of a one-off glasses costing from 0.”

“Then, with a quick ‘Ciao,’ she was gone.”

Lohan Family Drama Cycle Starts Again

In a classic Lohan family drama, patriarch Michael has held another press conference to “reach out” to daughter Lindsay after she has emerged in the press looking troubled again. Of course, the overly retold saga won’t be complete without mom Dina joining in the fun.

The story, which seems like a planned family attempt at getting back in the limelight by now, started with Lindsay’s less than flattering photos in tabloids, wherein she looked like a middle-aged and worn-out addict.

For the record, the alleged recovering addict denies she looks worse for wear, saying she is actually healthy. Not that anyone needs to believe her.

Michael, seeing this as another opportunity to emerge as a concerned father, held a press conference to say he wants to save his daughter, saying he doesn’t want her life to end tragically like Brittany Murphy or DJ AM.
