X GAMES
The 2012 Winter X Games, which ran from Jan.
26 - 29 in Aspen, turned out to be one of the most
exciting ones yet.
Here are some of the most notable moments and
stories from this year:

“One if not the best winter
Xgames on record!”
Tr i p l e C o r k M a d n e s s
Friday, Jan. 27 proved to be a historic day in the
Big Air. A triple cork had never been success-
fully landed in the Winter X Games in this event,
but both Mark McMorris and Torstein Horgmo
pulled one off. These amazing feats helped earn
McMorris the gold and Horgmo the silver. The
18-year-old McMorris would also take first place
in the Slopestyle the very next day—make sure
to remember his name.
Dope overload!
Snowmobiling Front Flip
In another Winter X first, Heath Frisby nailed a
front flip in the Snowmobiling Best Trick. He de-
servedly won the event, which gives him a ca-
reer total of seven medals.

BA D GIRAFFE CLOTHING
BAD GIRAFFE CLOTHING <<
Bad Giraffe!! I’m sure this is a commonly
used phrase by zoo keepers all over the
world; I’m actually pissing myself laughing
right now thinking of a zoo keeper giving
one giraffe into trouble for harassing an-
other. Most of you will never have heard
of the phrase never mind the name, how-
ever this is about to change! By the time
you’ve read this article from top to toe you
will know who Bad Giraffe are and you will
love Teen Spirit for introducing you to such
an excellent label!
tm
m agazine
32 www.teenspiritvibe.com
Bad Giraffe’s clothing really does stay true to their mission statement and is evident through-
out their full collection. Not for the first time since I got into writing about independent cloth-
ing company’s, I found myself looking at Bad Giraffe’s range and thinking, I’ll have that one,
that one, that one, in fact just put them all in a box and send them to my house, let’s hope I
win the lottery. As you can see when you arrive at Bad Giraffe’s site, every tee
has got the giraffe situated somewhere on it, obviously, from the ‘Clean
Cut Flag’ tee which replaces the stars on the American flag with the Bad
Giraffe logo, to the ‘Be Genuine’ tee which features a less prominent
giraffe, it’s obvious the Matt wanted to include the animal in most, if
not all of his designs. My favourite tee of the collection has got to be
the ‘Walk Tall’ tee, I just love the concept behind it, with its genius type
reading ‘Bad Giraffe Presents, Walk Tall’ and its attention to detail,
and I would say this one is a staple in any t-shirt fans closet.
tm
www.teenspiritvibe.com

tm
The question now is what does 2012 hold for Bad Gi-
raffe? To be honest, I don’t have a damn clue, but what
I do know is that whatever they do release will be just
as awesome as the previous if not better! One things
for sure, it’ll include a giraffe whatever it may be!

the critically acclaimed RPGs Elder Scrolls 3: Mor-
rowind and Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion.

customization, and immersive storytelling in an ex-
traordinarily detailed fantasy universe. Gamers be-
A whole new world!

the dead, wielding dangerous new magic capable
of changing the very Fate of Amalur. Thrust into a
brutal war between multiple races, factions, and alli-

world.

PARIS IN CUFFS
Paris in Cuffs, I’m not sure what Paris they’re talking about, is it the country, you know
where they wear black and white striped tops and wear strings of onions round their necks
, or is it that other Paris, you know the one that was in that porno a couple of years back?
To be honest the answer is irrelevant, but what is relevant is that we’ve got one hell of an

‘Let’s go Thunder Wolves’, I know
what you’re thinking, this sounds
like a cheesy line from an Ameri-

More so than any other form of media, video games have a particularly difficult
position when it comes to controversy. While violent films or TV shows merely
engage viewers passively, games differ in that they give direct control over the
on-screen action.
What many fail to understand is that the majority of gamers have the ability to
differentiate reality from fantasy. It’s for this reason that you don’t see the plumb-
ing industry swamped with applications from gamers who were attracted to the
profession by promises of gold coins and a hot princess named Peach.
Doom
While Doom will forever be known as
the game which popularized the first
person shooter, it was just as ground-
breaking for its gore. For many it
remains one of the earliest instances of
being both impressed and sickened by
such a high level of violence in a video
game. I must have been about 8 years
old when I first saw Doom in action –
the hellish world and its bloody and
Thrill kill
The only game on this list that wasn’t even actually
gruesome visuals were a tad different

that it was canned by scared publishers EA at the
last minute. A four player fighting game, Thrill Kill
was set in the depths of hell and focused on a
series of depraved characters with an emphasis
on graphic and sexualized violence. Characters
include a cattle prod wielding dominatrix named
Belladonna and Cleetus – a tapeworm infected
redneck.

After successfully managing to replicate
the fun of the Tony Hawks Pro Skater
series with two enjoyable Dave Mirra
BMX titles, publisher Acclaim decided
to go in a slightly different direction with
the third entry of the series – presum-
ably coming to the conclusion that there
was a severe lack of tits.

Boobies
Any lethal object that’s been placed on the ground
with malicious intent, namely the bouncing betty, the
IMF, and the friggin claymore. Don’t you love that
eternity of time between the moment when you hear
that first “CLICK” and the moment when you realize
you have absolutely zero options for somehow avoid-
ing it and just wearing it like a champ? I don’t.
Death From Above
Two words. Stealth. Bomber. Somehow those only
get called in when I’m completely in the open and
have no chance of hiding. Every time.
Stealth Error
Anytime you try to get cocky when you sneak up on someone and either knife them in
the back or go for a headshot or something, and they somehow accidentally avoid it
and shoot you full of holes. That’s always a good moment to think about just quitting.
Hell Spawn
One thing that always makes me at least think about throwing my controller through
the nearest window is the Free For All “spawn and have a guy spawn in the exact
same spot half a second later so he can knife you in the back” death. It’s fun when your
guy number 2. It’s not fun when you’re number 1.
Bendy Bullets
The “see a guy shoot at you and run completely around a corner before somehow get-
ting shot, AROUND THE CORNER, by the guy you just ran away from” death. Figure
it out Call of Duty. Don’t give me false hope and then shatter it like that.
Superhuman Gunner
For me personally, the most irritating, infuriating death comes when you have one of
those guys who run around with akimbo FMG9’s. Somehow MW3 decided it would
be a good idea to throw any hint at reality way out the window and make those things
absurdly accurate, fast, and lethal. I’m sorry MW3, but when a guy is shooting 2 guns
at the same time, from the hip, at a full run, from 80 yards away, he’d be lucky to hit a
freakin cow, let alone square me up WITH THE FIRST THREE SHOTS!!! FPSRussia
and Chuck Norris are the only 2 humans capable of such feats. Period.

06. NOSFERATU (1922)
The terrifying image of Count Orlok in the 1922 classic silent horror
film, Nosferatu, needs to be nothing more than a shadow on a wall
Managing to induce sheer dread for audiences in only his shadow
form, the distinctively deformed silhouette of the vampiric Count is
the stuff of nightmares.
