If Ever There Was a Good Reason for Lego Cannibalism: LEGO Batman Cake
by Demi Adejuyigbe on October 8, 2008
Holy crap.
At first glance, that image looks like a promotional set for the recently released LEGO Batman game, and looking closer wouldn’t tell you any different, but according to the description posted on Flickr for the image, it’s a cake. A fucking cake. If ever there were a reason to eat LEGOs (barring the complete disregard for the boxes’ DO NOT INGEST labels) this is it.
The cake was designed by celebrity cake designer (… what?) Elisa Strauss for Warner Bros’ launch party, and is by far the best video game cake I’ve ever seen. At this point, the only way to top this is for someone to create a cake in Denis Dyack’s visage, complete with Playboy bunnies sense of complacency. Get to it!

Silicon Knights Employees Voice Their Thoughts on Denis Dyack
by Roly Reyes on August 27, 2008
Do you like this man? Y/N?
In honor of the recent release of Silicon Knights’ Too Human, MTV Multiplayer’s Stephen Totilo thought it’d be a good idea to interview some of the people behind the game. Most, including myself, would assuredly include the outspoken, and often controversial, Denis Dyack amongst the interviewees. Totilo specifically requested that Dyack not be among those to be interviewed. As a tease for the full interviews that will follow, Totilo asked Too Human’s Art Director, Director of Design, and Audio Director how they felt about their boss, President and Co-founder of Silicon Knights, Denis Dyack.

The Life and Times of Too Human
by Keane Ng on August 17, 2008
When Too Human comes out this Tuesday, it will mark the end of nearly ten years of development for one of the most beleaguered games of all time. Too Human has been spat upon; it has been put up on pedestals. Whether or not the game turns out to be as good as its creator has promised or is just mediocre, whether you’re “for” or “against” Too Human, it’s in the spirit of giving the game credit for making it this far that we present you with a brief retrospective of Too Human’s life, from 1999 to the present.

Denis Dyack Explains Too Human While Trying To Keep His Hands To Himself
by Roly Reyes on July 29, 2008
Keeping your hands to yourself is not usually a problem during an interview, however Silicon Knights President, Denis Dyack, was being scantily interrogated by two extremely attractive “lingerie-clad” Penthouse Pets of the Year, in Heather Vandeven (2007) and Jaime Lynn (2006).
Regardless, Double D was his usual self, waxing philosophically about mythology, technology, and its overall effects on society, as he answered questions about his company’s upcoming title, Too Human. You gotta hand it to the guy, whether he’s on the 1UP Yours podcast or in bed with the Penthouse Pets, he’s always on message and appropriate. Mrs. Dyack would be proud.
A note to our friends over at Dasgamer — if everyone at E3 had a chance to take part in an interview like this, it would almost make up for the lack of booth babes. Hint hint.
