All you can say about Jet City Cakes is, "These ain't your grandma's cakes." The Seattle-based company and owner Paul Quinn have foregone the frosted roses and victorian lace for designs that are decidedly funkier, like this awesome Pac Man cake.

Quinn started as an apprentice on the hit Food Network show, Ace of Cakes and went on to create some of the wildest confections this side of the Mississippi. Along with the Pac Man cake, Jet City's made a Batman and Catwoman wedding cake, a zombie castle cake, a pirate ship cake, an H.R. Giger cake, and even a Princess Peach cake.

Jet City's custom cakes run anywhere from $350 to $2,500, depending on the complexity of the request.

Sounds reasonable. After all, you can't put a price on good (edible) art.

Calling all Star Trek geeks in the London metro area: Namco and Atari are setting out to set the Guinness record this month for "largest gathering of people dressed as Star Trek characters".

On February 14th at 1pm, Trekkies, Trekkers and anyone else with a penchant for wearing pointed ears should show up to London's Millenium Bridge to set the record and commemorate the launch of new MMO, Star Trek Online.

“This should be an absolutely fantastic fun filled day and definitely one all fans of Star Trek should get involved in,” said Lee Kirton, Head of UK PR Namco Bandai Partners. “This is the chance to become part of history with a ‘World Record’ for the largest group of dressed up Star Trek characters in one place. Namco Bandai will also have a bunch of fantastic prizes up for grabs on the day for the best dressed ‘Trekkers’ and some prizes for just being part of the day should make it a trip worthwhile!”

Best dressed fans stand to win things like lifetime Star Trek Online subscriptions and DVD's of the recent Star Trek movie.

February 14th is just around the corner and remember, it's Valentine's Day. And what's more romantic than standing on a bridge along with thousands of other polyester-dressed fanatics, freezing your hinder off?

Prepare for a dose of awesome.

GivinTats of the Llama forums has posted a case mod that is absolutely stunning. Inspired by the Alien franchise, the mod features a chestburster busting through the top of a an unfortunate PS3.

Complete with blood and torn apart circuitry, this really makes your skin crawl. Kinda makes you wonder what that thing will look like once it's all grown up.

The days are long gone when I'll stand outside Best Buy for hours in the cold to buy a game. Luckily, these days pre-orders have removed the need for this madness, allowing cold-phobic gamers to order their games in advance.

February 9th, gamers who had the presence of mind to pre-order Bioshock 2 from Gamestop will be rewarded with two exclusive multiplayer mode characters: Blanche the Actress and Zigo the Fisherman.

Who else thinks these characters seem less than fit for survival of the fittest or capture the flag?

GamersFirst, the Free2Play® MMO game publisher (currently serving over 28 million players in 160 countries) has found yet another way to connect with gamers–Facebook. The company's new first-person free-to-play shooter, War Rock (which sounds like it should be the first cousin to Tim Schafer's Brutal Legend) has one of the fastest-growing fan pages, having gone from 500 to 10,000 fans (10,630 at this writing) in the last week.

“It was incredible to see the drastic growth on War Rock’s fan page over the past seven days,” says Jon-Enée Merriex, producer for GamersFirst’s FPS titles. “We anticipated a jump since we decided to offer specialized Facebook-only promotions, but didn’t realize that it would create such a massive impact in such a short amount of time.”

War Rock is a tactical FPS where players fight on land, sea, and in the air. While appearing to have a fairly unimaginative storyline with a vaguely "Iraqui Conflict" theme, the game seems to offer enough weapons, power ups and field equipment to keep gamers busy.

GamersFirst will be sponsoring events and supporting an integrated clan system and gamers willing to shell out a few bucks can access premium stuff like marketplace discounts and extra weapon slots.

Looks like something to check out, for those of you who love to shoot but just can't stop Facebooking. For more information, visit the War Rock website.

Japan always gets the coolest stuff.

Capcom Japan plans on releasing an E-Tank themed cushion this March for 2,625 Yen, or roughly $28.00 USD. The pillow measures in at 30×30cm and is the perfect addition to any Mega Man fan's bedroom.

As of now, the cushions can only be purchased through E-Capcom. Hopefully, Capcom US will bring this adorable item stateside – we need something to hug on those cold and lonely nights too!

I was thinking about what I could possibly write about this image but I think its self explanatory….

Chris, a member over at Capcom-Unity, has recently unveiled a fan trailer for Final Fight: The Movie. It is extremely well done and features all the familiar faces like the damsel in distress Jessica and her badass saviors: Mike Haggar, Cody, and Guy. The trailer can be viewed here.

Let's hope that this project is more than just a trailer. It contains just the right amount of authenticity and cheesiness to be the feel good movie of the year. Great job, Chris!

Now if only someone would wise up and make a Bad Dudes film.
