COULD THIS START ME PLAYING CHESS AGAIN?








I blink and wonder what shenanigans these cyberfreaks will get up to next.

"An erotic chess video game? Set in a post-apocalyptic world? With (and I quote the press release) “the possibility to actively guide each combination of pieces to a compelling digitized climax”? And a prequel set in Egyptian mythology? Fourteen years in the past, my 13-year-old self has just been delivered a boner from the future. Behold Lovechess Salvage, the game currently causing Bobby Fischer’s zombie to claw at the roof of his coffin buried deep in the Icelandic permafrost." (Click here for more and a video)

Or, if this chess stuff is too sim-decadent, you could click here for a Gene Vincent track I, for one, have never heard before. (Thanks Ian)
