OptiJuegos has delivered a working version of Minecraft to the original PlayStation 2, called OptiCraft. The port draws directly from Minecraft Pocket Edition version 0.6.1 and runs on real hardware released more than a decade before that mobile edition appeared. Players can generate worlds, break and place blocks, and engage with survival elements on a console many assumed could never handle the game.
Cast iron skillets from the kitchen rarely meet bullets outside fiction. The team at Yee Yee Life set out to change that on their private range in Texas. They lined up fresh pans in a row and fired round after round to find out exactly how many it takes to stop each type of ammunition. Slow motion cameras rolled while safety gear stayed on and results stayed unpredictable.
