The makers of the best trainers in the world Nike (No, I’m not being paid to say that – I genuinely love Nike, and turn a blind eye to whatever sweatshop tactics they may use because, goddamn they’re cool shoes.) and cooler than thou magazine / film company / site Vice have teamed up to bring us a new geolocation app that allows users to find out the coolest spots in a variety of cities. – Nike True City.
It’s essentially a Google Maps mash up, showing the locations of a variety of restaurants, clubs, shops and general cool shit. Some of the things on there are pretty obvious. Yes the Natural History museum is impossibly awesome, but we all knew that when we were five. Luckily there are some genuine gems on there that would really go unnoticed. I’ve discovered that there is a proper (Not Yo, or anything like that, but PROPER) Sushi restaurant in walking distance from my house. Which is quite likely to get a visit. So, thanks Nike!
Well worth a download (It’s free, so no excuses) especially if you’re going to be jetting off to any of the other five cites featured on the app. It’s like having a polite, mute hipster in your pocket, giving you advice. Nice one.

Let me set the scene that will be familiar to anyone who sometimes drinks at home: several days ago I was well and truly up against it. Unopened bottles were looming from every angle, and to compound matters, I was struggling to keep focused. I knew that hard work and concentration were the only things that would ensure all my drinking was done on time, and to a high standard. To do this it would be necessary to build a massive fort in my living room using all of my furniture.
Hollywood has not learnt its lesson and we have yet another video game adaptation hitting the big screen in the form of Tekken. The King Of Iron Fist Tournament is hardly known for it’s great story – family at war, throw each other off cliffs, turn into devils and bond by throwing more people off cliffs. Check out the trailer below:
