  • RT: Weekend Update

    We’re still working on what will be the sixteenth installment of RT Shorts (blame Gavino), but in the meantime we’ve got some bonus RvB action! You may have seen the news on Digg that we just released a new Red vs. Blue video featuring some exclusive footage we captured in Halo 3: ODST. The first of these three special episodes is now in our archive. Check it out!

    In case you missed Geoff’s last news post, we just rolled out our very cool new store, which has been rebuilt from the ground up to make it easier to navigate and just generally more awesome. Just enter in: NewStoreRocks09 in the checkout, to receive 10% off your purchase. This code will only work until midnight tomorrow, so act fast.

    Also ending tomorrow at midnight is Brandon’s latest RT contest to win a some RvB DVDs. We’ve already received a ton of great entries, so send yours!

    And last but not least in RT news, our own Nathan Zellner has just released his latest film “Goliath” for rent at Blockbuster. It’s about a cat and Nathan is very tall, so you know it’s going to be good.

  • AH: Two Madden NFL 10 Guides

    Dear sports fans,
    Brownman has turned in two great videos for Madden NFL 10. The first one covers the three secret Achievements in the game. How secret are they? So secret that I’m not even going to name them. You’ll just have to settle for the following tiles.

    The next one covers three “not so secret” Achievements, so I feel comfortable listing them for you: Pocket Monster, Wounded Duck, and The Gang’s All Here. Watching both of these little guys will net you a whopping 205 Gamerscore. Getting you that much closer to BrownMan’s 140782.


  • AH: Riddler Trophies Part Two

    Hey, guys.

    Ze back again bringing you part two of my Riddler Trophy Guide.

    Here are some things to keep in mind:
    -Pretty much everything you do in game relates in some way to the Riddler and his challenges.
    -This includes breaking all joker teeth you see in a given area
    -If you guys would like me to list the teeth in each area, let me know in comments. I won’t show breaking all of them (because there are quite a few), but I’d be glad to list them numerically for you. Because I guess I love you people. Or something.

    Fin.

  • RT: Get the Awesome Button on your iPhone!

    Our very first iPhone and iPod touch app, the Awesome Button, is now available on the iTunes App Store!

    It’s free, so download it now and let us know what you think!

  • RT: One Man's Garbage

    Once you’ve read today’s comic, head on over to the iTunes store and get your free copy of the new Awesome App.

  • AH: PAX: Live Action Achievements

    Alright, I have golden opportunity for you loyal readers…

    I’ll be attending the Penny Arcade Expo starting in about a week, and I’m looking to accomplish some “real-life achievements.”

    “What is a real-life achievement Jack?” I can hear you asking. Basically, it’s like a scavenger hunt that you guys send me on.

    In the comments of this post, write an achievement that you would like to see me accomplish, and then attach a gamerscore to it.

    Be smart about it too, I’m not going to do anything illegal or anything that could hurt me.

    For example:

    High-Five every member of Rooster Teeth at PAX: 10GS
    Get a semi-celebrity (Wil Wheaton, Gabe, Tycho, Felicia Day, etc.) to call you a jerk: 50GS

    You get what I’m talking about? I’ll create a list of 1000GS based on your comments and post it before I make it to PAX. I’ll be documenting every time I accomplish an achievement and have a video for you shortly thereafter.

    Try to think of real achievements, and how they are scored. My life isn’t AVATAR: The Last Airbender, give me lots of things I can do. And remember, I do it all for you.


  • RT: New Rooster Teeth Store

    Hey Everyone,
    I’m happy to announce (read: super, duper excited) that we’re launching the new Rooster Teeth Store today. This new and improved store is accessible via the usual method, by clicking on the store link in the dropdown, or by just going to roosterteeth.com/store. We’ve wanted our store to be more integrated into our site (in both form and function) for a long time, and I think we’re finally there.

    To celebrate this momentous occasion, we’re releasing three brand new shirts, and one very, very, very old one. As an incentive to give this new store a whirl, how about a discount? Just enter in: NewStoreRocks09 in the checkout, to receive 10% off your purchase. This code will only work until midnight tomorrow, so act fast.

    Once you’ve checked it out, please drop us a line and let us know what you think. We’d love to hear your feedback. Oh, and for more news about site updates and the like, why not join our Web Dev group? All the cool kids are doing it.
