    My dad found a very cool video on Mashable that he showed me. It is a preview of a product called Leap Motion. The idea is that 8 cubic feet in front of your computer will be an interactive space to use with your hands. Your hands can control your computer, just like your mouse. It’s only $70 and it is supposed to be 200 times more sensitive than Microsoft Kinect. You will be able to plug it into a USB port. It is supposed to come out in December 2012 or January 2013, so you have to pre-order. Here is a cool video:

    I was very excited when I found out that Sly Cooper Thieves In Time will be playable on the PS Vita. Not only is it playable on the PS Vita, but you can start the game on the PS Vita and continue on the PS3, or vice versa! Also, you only have to buy the game for one of the systems to be able to play on both. I don’t have a Vita but I hope to get one someday. Here is the trailer:

    My Artwork was featured in Sonic Universe #40 Comic

    I sent in a funny comic strip to Archie Comics in hopes that they would include it in the Fan Art page of one of the Sonic The Hedgehog comics. I was very lucky to have mine included in Sonic Universe Issue 40. I received the latest issue in the mail the other day. I was shocked when I saw the Fan Art page as I flipped through the issue.

    In the comic series, Dr. Eggman has recently built the Death Egg Mark II. My comic strip takes place right after he has revealed his invention. In my story, Dr. Eggman is telling his nephew, Snively how to fix the wiring in the machine. As you can see, things don’t go according to plan.

     
    I hope you enjoy it and hope you decide to pick up issue 40 of Sonic Universe. Sonic Universe is an expansion of the Sonic The Hedgehog comic series. It shows stories that don’t always include Sonic but often include his friends and enemies. I really like it. I also subscribe to the Sonic The Hedgehog series, which is the main Sonic comic. Both are good but they are different in how the stories are divided. Sonic Universe is usually divided into four issue mini series, while Sonic The Hedgehog is just one continuous story. Archie also publishes the Mega Man comic, which I subscribe to also.

    Sly Cooper Thieves in Time Treasure Competition

    There is a contest going on right now for the new Sly Cooper Thieves in Time game, made by Sanzaru Games. The contest is a treasure design for an artifact for Sly to be able to steal in the game. The winners will get a PS Vita and their treasures will be featured in the game. I was going to enter, but I am not eligible because I live in the United States and the contest is only available to people outside of the US. I decided to go ahead and finish my drawing anyway and I emailed it to Sanzaru Games anyway. I hope they view it. Obviously I won’t win but I wanted them to see it anyway. Here it is:

    Mysterious Monkey Statue

    The Mysterious Monkey statue is actually Sanzaru’s mascot I guess since it is part of their logo. I have seen some video previews of the game and it looks really cool. I think they have done a good job taking over the Sly Cooper series. I hope it is even better than the originals.

    Here is a link to a video that shows some Sly 4 gameplay. Sorry I couldn’t embed the video itself.
