Your weekly dose of SA gaming news is dampened more with controversy, in-fighting, and make-ups than most. At the core has been the omnipresent (equally evasive) MSSA and the SA qualifier for the Call of Duty Championship. We’ll rather just direct you to the articles posted earlier in the week and focus on other things here… which is not as…
At the time of writing it certainly seems to be a quiet month in South Africa. We may have missed something. In fact, we probably did, so how about telling us about your events then and we will update the information for you and the readers. First Weekend (28 February to 2 March) From 5pm on Friday (28 February) until…
Ah yes… tattoos. I have spoken of this art form in the past and well, time to speak about it some more. A few weeks back I had the pleasure of attending the Southern Ink Xposure Tattoo Convention held in Cape Town and here is what I saw. First off, the Tattoo convention was held at a new venue. The…
Yesterday we showed off a few gaming related tattoos on South African gamers. Today it’s still South African gamers and their tattoos. Just not gaming related ones. Don’t forget, if you’re a fan of ink and gaming (or even only one of them), head to the Cape Town City Hall for this year’s Cape Tattoo Expo. It will feature ink…
In celebration of this coming weekend’s Cape Town Tattoo Convention at City Hall, which features a gaming breakaway area for the first time, we thought to our (probably overly) smug selves: “Why not do a gaming tattoos feature?” “Genius,” came the reply from the back. Being almost too ambitious for our own good, we then thought: “Heck, why don’t we…

The band has just come off the back of a fantastic 2012 and has big plans for 2013. Following an opening slot for Public Enemy at The Assembly at the end of 2010, the band released…
There’s nothing like a fine evening of old friends and fine wine. At least the fine wine doesn’t protest when you decide to consume it. Those friends on the other hand… Last night (Tuesday 22 January) was the start of the activities of this year’s Cape Tattoo Expo. An evening of art and film. Or film as art. Or art…
After 2012’s bumper year of community activities, 2013 has a lot to live up to. You might have thought it would take a few months before it all kicked off, but the last weekend of January has a lot going for it, and it’s a pretty varied one too. First event to kick off this weekend is Gaming Experience. This inaugural…
With the Cape Tattoo Expo happening this coming weekend, we felt it’s only right to let you know what you can expect when you decide to head over to the gaming setup at the event. In fact, we’d like to think the information below will make you want to come over even if you weren’t planning to. Firstly, get over…
Continuing its rich tradition of ensuring that art is an integral part of the Cape Tattoo Expo (or Southern Ink Xposure or Cape Town International Tattoo Convention), this year’s focus will be on the nautical roots of tattoo art. This Tuesday, you can join in the festivities by attending ‘Homeward Bound’, a multi-media exhibition comprised of a series of works…
