Kotaku Off Topic: Bats!

Things are starting to warm up at Kotaku Towers West, so let’s cool things down with some uncool conversation. Whether it be about video games, science, toys, literature or vampire bats, this post is down with what you’re into.

I’ve been watching a lot of vampire related media lately, thanks to a new run through of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series, but also my girlfriend’s rabid interest in True Blood and… ahem, Twilight. Yes, I’ve seen both films in the theater. Much of my day was spent dealing with the vampire bat for an upcoming project.

But let’s not focus on that or that I could identify both Edward Cullen and Jacob Black in a line up. Instead, let’s focus on these things and the delightful conversation that will ensue.

New Machete trailer! – For Cinco de Mayo! (I had no idea Robert De Niro and Don Johnson were in this, btw…)

Tim & Eric – Paul Rudd’s Computer – More amusing randomness from T&E but with the awesome Paul Rudd.

Great Google Chrome speed tests commercial – Chrome vs. sound, lightning and a potato gun.

Google also got a little overhaul – I’d seen this phasing in and out, but it looks like it’s officially official.
