Interesting piece of information I stumbled across today. An article on the BBC’s website reports that according to a recent study (read experiment); a few chimps were pitted up against students from the Kyoto University in Japan to test memory tasks. The tests involved remembering random numbers on the screen and then recalling which boxes these numbers were in.

Guess what - the humans lost! Yeah - THE HUMANS LOST!

Interesting because if you start to think about it, here are just some of the 9 major things that could go horribly wrong with life as we know it:

• Counter Strike will no longer be played by 14 year old delinquents.
• You’ll probably get pwn3d in every online deathmatch by a Chimp.
• Donkey Kong now gets to run around and bone princess Peach.
• Ape Escape and Ape Academy will cease to exist and the franchise will die - breaking the hearts of millions of little girls.
• Monkey Island would be called “Guybrush Threepwood’s Adventures”. Ugh!
• You will no longer be able to use terms like “spanking the monkey” or “freezing the balls of a brass monkey”.
• The Foo Fighters would lose a great song.
• Bananas would no longer be used as replacement dildo’s.
• theANGRYpixel staff would become the smartest primates on the planet and we would eventually rule the world.

Got any ideas of what else could go horribly wrong (or right)? Well, write a comment and buy favour with us now… don’t say we didn’t warn you!

Sorry for the delay folks - but finally my internet connection is back up and I can show you guys the video interview TAP did with Cyril Ferry - Head of Marketing; Indiagames.

We asked Cyril a bunch of questions ranging from the absence of CS : Source in the WCG to the current state of gaming in India. We also spoke about the lack of console based multi-player games and also about a certain game magazine that (no-surprise) wasn’t invited to cover the event!

So sit back and watch. Our apologies for the poor audio though. As you’ll see, we got an all access pass to everything backstage, and that’s where we ended up - backstage - so there was a lot of noise to be had. Therefore, video best watched with a pair of headphones on. To preserve quality, we haven’t uploaded it on Youtube or similar, but provide it as a direct download from this space exclusively.

And if you like the intro tune, remember to download Frets on Fire.
