Get Intimate With Victoria's Secret Model Lily Aldridge

You made your third appearance in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. What’s it like strutting down the runway, clad only in lingerie and angel wings? Oh, my God, it’s so nerve-racking. There’s no other time when you have to walk in your underwear in front of 9 million people. I usually try to zone out, ’cause there’s no way to focus on all the people watching. Before I go out there, I just listen to music and dance. And when I turn that corner, I just go for it. Is that where you feel the sexiest? I’d say it’s when I’m in a bikini on the beach, having fun—feeling healthy and happy. Aldridge and Followill© Barry Talesnick/Globe Photos/ZUMAPRESS.comWe hear you love to cook, too. Do you have a signature dish? I make really good peas with prosciutto. It’s my go-to. How do you stay so fit if you’re cooking all the time? I do a lot of yoga and Pilates. I think men should do them, too. They’re amazing ways to work out. I’m constantly telling my husband he should do Pilates because it’s such an intense workout. I know it seems really girly, but I’ve seen huge athletes do it! I’ve tried running, but I turn bright red—there’s nothing cute about it. You’re married to Kings of Leon front man Caleb Followill. What is it with rockers and supermodels, anyway? I think it has to do with our crazy schedules. When you’re a rock star, on tour around the world, it’s hard to find someone who understands your lifestyle. It’s the same with models. I might be in Paris today but Bora-Bora tomorrow. He gets that. How do you make a long distance relationship work? Making the time we have together special. Going on dates is important, and iChat is amazing—it’s the greatest invention ever for connecting with someone when you’re far away. It’s so comforting. Lily’s Secret to Buying the Right Gift for Your Girl
“Lingerie always makes a great present. It’s thoughtful because she knows it’s what her man likes, so it makes her feel extra confident that you’re picking it out for her. Knowing her correct size is very important, though, so you might have to peek in her drawer. Don’t get her something too big or too small—that can get you in trouble. In terms of colors, I think black and red are always a safe bet.”Christmas is coming up. What’s your favorite part about the holidays? Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve loved having a Christmas stocking. It could be ChapStick in there—I don’t care. I just love opening it. It’s so much fun. That’s also a time when my husband and I get to be together and just relax. I always buy pajamas for the both of us, and we just cook together and watch every Christmas movie ever made. We hear your mom, Laura, was a former Playmate of the Month. What was it like having a bunny for a mom? It was so cool. I’m so proud of my mom. She was at Playboy at a time when the magazine was at its sexiest. She was a jet bunny [flight attendant], too! I just tracked down the jet bunny uniform that she wore, and I bought it, just to have it back in the family. It was a great way to grow up. She was always on the go, but she still made time to make our lunches and take us on trips, and whenever we traveled, she made sure we went to the museums and took in the culture and the food. A Playboy bunny for a mom, and sisters who model too— talk about a family with good genes. I never thought I was gonna be a model. I thought I was gonna be a soccer player! Do you still play?Not as much lately, but I did play against a pro team in Toronto recently, and we did a shoot-out. I was talking during the whole game, and I thought I was gonna be so good. My husband, who’s never played soccer before, got all his goals in, and I did so bad. It was a terrible day. [Laughs] Out of curiosity, when all the Angels are just hanging out, do you…Have pillow fights in our lingerie? It is exactly like that…just kidding. ]]>

How to Survive Five Awkward Sex Moments

Encountering the occasional embarrassing moment during sex is inevitable. Whether you're walked in on or have a little too much "drank in the tank," the result is instant mortification--for you and her. But don't worry: There's a way to survive every awkward sexual encounter. We took five more-common-than-you'd-imagine scenarios to sex educator Barbara Carrellas, author of Urban Tantra: Sacred Sex for the Twenty-First Century, who gave us rock-solid advice on how to fix slipups between the sheets.

The fun ends early

It’s a killjoy for her—and pretty embarrassing for you—when it all ends in less than 60 seconds. When you haven’t seen your girl in a while (hey, long distance can be a killer for the little guy), it's easy to get too excited, too fast.

Deal with it: Every man suffers from premature ejaculation at one time or other. If it's an occasional occurrence, don't worry about it. There are infinite ways you can give your partner pleasure and orgasms without using your penis. If PE is an ongoing problem, you can learn ways to last longer,”  Carrellas says.

Five Long-Distance Sex Tips >>>

You didn't have time to shower

Your girl surprised you, and you didn’t have time to lather up after your workout. You’re embarrassed of what things may smell like down below, but you obviously don't want to say no to her—or gross her out. 

Deal with it: "The key here is prevention," Carrellas says. "Take a shower! If you weren't expecting to have sex and are suddenly presented with the opportunity, invite your partner to join you."

You overdid the alcohol

You’ve had a long night out and maybe a little too much to drink. You're thinking, “I can do this,” but turns out, you just can’t seem to get it up. 

Deal with it: “This is one of those cases where you can have it all, just not at the same time," Carrellas says. "If you want to drink, go ahead and drink, but don't expect to have fulfilling sex. If you want sex, don't have more than a couple of drinks. Simple. Penises are often smarter than the men they are attached to. Penises don't respond in situations where they don't feel safe, like when the men who want to use them are incapacitated by alcohol."

You let it rip

Just like everyone sneezes and coughs, everybody farts, and sometimes nature calls at the wrong moment. You’re in the middle of having sex with your partner and all of a sudden...boom. It just came out (loud) and the lingering smell is killing the mood. 

6 Simple Steps to Better, Hotter Sex >>>

Deal with it: Make a quick recovery without killing the mood. "For me, the protocol is the same for all unintentional bodily sounds: "Excuse me," notes Carrellas. "I see no need to apologize for the natural functions of the body, but 'Excuse me' is a polite way of acknowledging that it happened.”

Intercourse got interrupted

The door you thought was locked all of a sudden opens, and in walks your roommate. Or worse, your mom dropped in for a surprise visit—and the mood is dead. 

Deal with it: "If you're caught in the act by a family member, there's not much you can do but walk away as gracefully as possible," Carrellas says. If you're simply worried about being overheard, “embrace your inner exhibitionist," she suggests. "It could make the sex hotter."

Arianny Celeste Talks Fitness

The stunning Playboy model, Octagon Girl and host of UFC's Ultimate Insider on ufc.com loves working up a sweat in the gym and in the ring doing Muay Thai kickboxing. Here, Arianny gives her top three tips for getting your butt in shape.

Supplement Your Training
"I don't like to take any crazy, unnatural supplements, but I do use glutamine. I put it in my protein shakes, and it really helps with muscle soreness."

Give in to Temptation
"if you're craving something, eat it. Otherwise, you're going to eat something else that won't satisfy you, and eventually you'll eat what you craved anyway. Just don't overdo it.

Get Back
"I'm definitely a butt girl. I like a guy to have some nice glutes, so he needs to squat and lunge. Muay Thai is also great for the butt—it's a full-body workout. You can feel your abs and glutes work when you're kicking. I train with guys, and I've definitely slapped a couple around!"

Mew-Genics wants you to hoard attribute-boosting furniture

Team Meat recently unveiled another aspect of Mew-Genics' gameplay: furniture collecting. Super Meat Boy creator Edmund McMillen discussed the game's furniture system in a blog post on the game's site, drawing comparisons to Nintendo's Animal Crossing series.

In Mew-Genics, players acquire furniture through Baby Jack's store then place it in a room in their house. Each piece of furniture, which belongs to one of five "types," influences a variety of stats in the game, from disease rates to each cat's life span. The five types of furniture are large, medium, small, wall furniture and those belonging to item sets. Team Meat says Mew-Genics will include 750 pieces of furniture in total, not including rare alternates for each one.

The cat genetics and breeding game will launch in 2014 for Steam, iOS and Android. JoystiqMew-Genics wants you to hoard attribute-boosting furniture originally appeared on Joystiq on Mon, 02 Dec 2013 17:00:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

Atari strategy classic M.U.L.E. coming to iOS next week

It's been three decades since M.U.L.E. was first released on the Atari 800, but we've got no time for wistful memories as the classic strategy game is slated to return on iOS in mere days, appropriately as M.U.L.E. Returns.

For those to whom the acronym means nothing, M.U.L.E. is something of a cross between Settlers of Catan and Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. The goal of M.U.L.E. is to thrive among the stars as a colonist on the planet Irata (that's "Atari" spelled backwards). Other colonists will be competing with you for resources, though they just as often can become valuable trading partners. At launch (and even today) M.U.L.E. was revered for its easy to learn, but difficult to master mechanics and near-infinite replayability - no mean feat for an Atari game released in 1983.

M.U.L.E. Returns makes its iOS debut on November 25. An Android version of M.U.L.E. Returns is scheduled to appear at some point in 2014. M.U.L.E. Returns is said to feature new, HD graphics, online leaderboards, and a faithful reproduction of the rules of the Atari original.JoystiqAtari strategy classic M.U.L.E. coming to iOS next week originally appeared on Joystiq on Fri, 22 Nov 2013 23:00:00 EST.

Sofia Vergara

Men's Fitness recently caught up with the sexy star of TV's hit series Modern Family. Lucky for us—and you—the stunning Colombian revealed her most important rules when it comes to relationships:

BE REAL AND READY
"When I meet someone and know I'm going to be in a relationship with them, I don't play games. If I like somebody, I'll go out with them and whatever happens, happens. You don't have to screw around when you feel attracted to a person."

ABSENCE MAKES THE . . .
"The good thing about being in a long-distance relationship is that you don't have to live the day-to-day routines. Every time you see the person, it's as if you're on vacation. You've been waiting, and you're anxious. You don't get tired of them."

IT'S THE DETAILS
"Make your girl feel special—take the time to think of her and show her you care. I guess that's why Latin men are always known for getting the girls. They are brought up like that. They know how to give a woman attention."

SEX MATTERS
"Good sex is definitely important to a relationship; whoever says it's not is lying."

11 Tips for Nailing Your First Time…With Her

You’ve played your cards well enough that the new girl you’re dating has finally agreed to come back to your apartment after a night out. Until now, you’ve held back on making a move because you didn’t want to scare her off, but you can’t wait any longer. You want her in your bed—badly. The pressure is on to make a smooth transition from first base to home plate, but what does that entail? Music? Candles? Definitely not.

Is Your Bachelor Pad Turning Her Off?

Skip any elaborate scheming and keep it simple. We asked experts for their best tips on how to consummate a new relationship—with tact. If you get it right on the first try, we promise she’ll be coming back for more.

1. Pay Attention to Nonverbal Clues

“Sometimes a guy is so anxious to sleep with a new partner that he gets caught up in the excitement. But if he wants it to be a great sexual experience for her, then he needs to read her signs,” says Dr. Jenn Berman of VH1’s Couples Therapy and host of The Love and Sex Show with Dr. Jenn on SiriusXM. “Look at how she’s responding to your moves—what makes her excited and what is she less excited about?”

How to Keep Your Head in the Game for Better Sex>>>

2. Don’t Steal Bases

As much as you want to fast-forward to the main event, don’t underestimate the value of foreplay. “A lot of men don’t realize that biologically, women need it to get their bodies warmed up,” Berman says. “If you want her to have an orgasm, the best chance of that happening is a good 20 minutes of foreplay.”



3. Dress to Impress

Girls make sure their undergarments are impressive, and men should do the same. “Wear boxer-briefs. Seriously,” says Amber Madison, a New York City-based therapist who specializes in dating and relationships. “They’re sexy and more sophisticated than boxers.”

Overnight Expert: How to Shop for Lingerie>>>

4. Forget 50 Shades

If you’re into the unconventional, save it for a later date. “Despite what you might have been hearing about from Fifty Shades of Grey, most women will be a little freaked out if you show up for a first-time sexual encounter with warming gel and sex toys,” says Melissa White, CEO and founder of Lucky Bloke. “Until you know one another’s comfort zones, you should probably stay away from anything kinky. Plus, you don’t know yet what sensitivities she might have to condoms or lubricants with heating or cooling properties—and you don’t want her wanting a shower instead of you.”

5. Clean Your Room

She’s not going to sit on your bed if it’s covered in crap. “If you’re planning on having sex at your place, clean your home,” White advises. “It should look tidy and inviting—not like the set of a Seth Rogen movie.”

6. Be Well Groomed

Like the status of your apartment (read: laundry not overflowing from the hamper), your appearance should be equally as pulled together. If you’re hoping she will be visiting your lower region, it’s important that the area is well kempt so as not to disgust her. “A little manscaping goes a long way,” notes Berman.

“Make sure you shower and smell good, but too much cologne is a turnoff,” White adds. “We all rely on pheromones to be turned on. You want her to be able to smell you—albeit a freshly showered, you.”

10 Things She's Secretly Thinking About Your Penis>>>

7. Go the Extra Mile

Thoughtfulness goes a long way, and we’re not necessarily talking flowers or chocolate. “Women like to see a man make an effort, like planning a terrific date,” Berman says. “Most men underestimate how far that goes,” meaning it might go as far as the bedroom.

8. Protect Yourself

It’s your first time together, so you probably haven’t talked birth control or previous partners. So, take the lead on this one: “Don’t make her bring up the subject; making her uncomfortable is a surefire way out of the bedroom,” White says. “It’s a welcome surprise when a man comes prepared in this department.”

9. Make the Connection

Keep things close, on more than a physical level. “There’s nothing sexier than some intimate eye contact during sex,” White says. “Instead of staring at the wall or the ceiling, capture her gaze, hold her hand.”

10. Have Patience

Taking the plunge with someone new means figuring out how the two of you work together—not just physically but in terms of chemistry, too. “Your first time with a new partner may not go perfectly, and that’s OK,” says Dr. Logan Levkoff, of Trojan’s Sexual Health Advisory Council. “It takes a while to get to know somebody’s body and what he or she likes.”

11. Give Her a Proper Send-Off

Everyone’s got to eat in the a.m., right? If you can cook, go for it. At the very least, offer her a cup of coffee. “This will ensure that things don’t get awkward,” Madison says. “Also, text her later that day. This way, when she starts to have the "He just wanted sex" freak-out, as many girls do, hearing from you will calm her down.” It’s the perfect close to your first time together.

Dream Woman: Doutzen Kroes

Open Up"Keep it romantic and really make your lover feel special. It's not about the gift but spending time with the person you love and telling them why you love them. Although you think they know it already, don't be afraid to reiterate it."

Quality Time Beats Presents"I'm a really simple girl; waking up to breakfast in bed is perfect, and just having extra time to spend together, whether it's lying in bed all day or going for a run. [My husband] Sunnery and I always have a great time when we cook together in the kitchen—it's always sexy when you start by steaming things up in there."

But Do Pick Up Something"Women get too sensitive about making sure their man buys the right gift. Of course we don't want a vacuum or something for the house. Sexy and flirty is always a good rule to live by, even if it's just the basics: jewelry, chocolate, lingerie, or flowers."

Unplug"Sneak away from everything you have going on, turn off the cell phones, don't answer e-mails; spend some alone time together. Making it about the two of you will help to keep things romantic."

Put it in Writing"If you're stumped on what to get her, sometimes the littlest things, like a card with a nice message on it, can be the best option. I love receiving a card from my man—it's always something personal and is just another way to be reminded how much he loves me."

Lace, of Course"Lingerie helps make a woman feel sensual—when I get dressed, it's the first thing i pick out. When buying it for your woman, make sure to get the right size and always pick something she will appreciate." (In other words, always check her closet before you hit the store so you have an idea of what kinds of things you should be looking for.)

5 Ways to Get Her Naked Faster

Let’s face it, some women out there just aren’t comfortable making the first move when you get to the bedroom. Whether she's shy or just doesn't know what you want, you need to take control of the situation. You've said all the right things, but she just won't give in. It's time to lend her a hand by being the leader so the real fun can start. We promise, she’ll follow.

We hit up Nick Savoy of Love Systems for his best tips to getting her to take it off, now.

1. Get Naked Yourself

“Whipping it out can encourage her to do the same and can heighten her curiosity and sexual tension," Savoy says. "Unlike going for her pants, getting undressed yourself isn't something she's used to automatically objecting to, so there's less chance of her breaking the mood.”

2. Make it Warm—or Cold

“If it's warm, she'll be more likely to be willing to shed clothes," Savoy says. "If it's cold, she'll be more likely to curl up under a blanket next to you. Either of those will lead to her being naked sooner.”

Five Long-Distance Sex Tips>>>

3. Be Bold

“No woman gets naked with a man because she's turned on by how 'respectful' he is," Savoy says. "If you are attracted to her, she'll know—whether you say anything or not. Women are rarely attracted to a man who wants her, but doesn't make a move. So you may as well show her you have the confidence to make something happen.”

 

4. Get Physical

“She's more likely to get naked after a workout, a hike, or a day at the beach," Savoy says. "Plan something hot and sweaty and then offer to let her shower at your place. Just make sure your bathroom is clean and you have nice towels!”

15 Things She Wants You to Do For Her in Bed>>>

5. Be the Man

“Many women like to feel like they're being seduced," Savoy says. "Of course she knows what's going on, but it's a nice feeling for a lot of women for the man to make things happen, smoothly, in a 'it just happened' kind of way. So have an excuse when you invite her home, don't spend five minutes looking for a condom or trying to unhook her bra. One mistake a lot of guys make is starting to fool around on the couch and then moving her to the bedroom. That's a potentially awkward moment. If you start on the couch, finish on the couch."

Doctor Who: Legacy arrives November 27

Following the recent BBC debut of "The Day of the Doctor," and continuing the 50th anniversary celebration of all things Doctor Who, comes the November 27 launch of the free-to-play Doctor Who: Legacy.

Available exclusively on iOS and Android, Legacy allows players to build a team of their favorite companions and allies from the extensive history of Doctor Who. You'll use this team to battle the series' most famous enemies and relive the Doctor's greatest moments.

While that premise sounds like the sort of thing a Who fan would adore, keep in mind that not all of the game's content will be available at launch. On debut, the game will cover the most recent two seasons of Doctor Who. From there the development team will work backwards in time to add more content to Doctor Who: Legacy.

Today's announcement mentions that content from season five of the modern Doctor Who series will be available for free at some point near the beginning of 2014. It's currently unknown what price points will be attached to further content releases.

The Franz Kafka Videogame bugs desktops, mobile in 2014



Franz Kafka's mind is a ripe setting for a video game, full of anxiety, bureaucracy, daddy issues and a little bit of magic. Indie developer Denis Galanin, known as "mif2000," has transformed The Castle, The Metamorphosis, Amerika and a few other works from Kafka into The Franz Kafka Videogame, due out for PC, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android in 2014.

Mif2000 was previously responsible for translating William Shakespeare's Hamlet into a game with a ridiculous name but respectable accolades.

The Franz Kafka Videogame follows the main character, K, after he gets a new job that requires traveling to a distant land.

Report: Angry Birds Go! has $100 microtransaction in soft launch

Rovio's kart racing game, Angry Birds Go!, is heavy on microtransactions - including one in-game car that sells for $100, Pocket Gamer reports. The game is out in a soft launch in New Zealand, though it doesn't hit worldwide until December 11.

Angry Birds Go! is free-to-play with a classic mix of in-game currency: gems and coins. Players grab coins in races and use them to upgrade a kart's specs. Upgrading a kart increases your CC ratings, and the higher CC rating, the more tracks you can play. Gems are the premium currency, used to get more coins. Players can also buy gems with real money.

The standard cars can only be upgraded so far and the better cars cost real money, the site reports. The Big Bang Special Edition car costs $100 (though a picture on Pocket Gamer shows it costs $125). Buying the game's related real-life Hasbro toys, Telepods, can also unlock cars and game modes.

This is all based on the soft launch of Angry Birds Go!, so prices and processes are subject to change.JoystiqReport: Angry Birds Go! has $100 microtransaction in soft launch originally appeared on Joystiq on Wed, 27 Nov 2013 15:30:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

The 11 Hottest New Women of 2011

2011 brought us many good things; the death of Osama Bin Laden, the release of the iPhone 4S, the, um…beginning of health care reform? Did that kick in yet? Alright, we can argue the merits of those watershed events to death, but there is one constant, every year, that is far more worthy of our time to reflect on and debate. That is, of course, the hottest female newcomers of the 2011 calendar year. From the modeling world to TV and film to sports, here is a list of females who caught our attention this past year and we're hoping to get to know better in 2012. Kate UptonWhile she lost out on the coveted cover of the 2011 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition to Irina Shayk (an announcement made on the Late Show With David Letterman), 19-year-old model Kate Upton did just fine this year following her appearance in the annual magazine man bible. The former equestrienne champ went on to model for Victoria’s Secret, appear on the TV show Tosh.0 and in the film Tower Heist, and even has a small role in the upcoming Three Stooges reboot as a hot, scantily-clad nun. Of course, she’s best known for her viral YouTube video, adorably doing the Dougie at a Clippers game. The clip single-handedly made up for years of videos of corny white girls dancing on the Internet. Amen.

Alison BrieHer show Community is currently on an “extended hiatus,” but that shouldn’t be enough to stop a legion of fanboys from worshiping at the altar of Alison Brie. While she is best known as the studious, skirt-sporting Annie Edison on the cult NBC comedy, Brie is also set to reprise her role as Trudy Campbell in the upcoming fifth season of Mad Men. And after a part in this year’s Scream 4, the 28-year-old actress will appear in next year’s Save the Date and The Five-Year Engagement. So fear not, everyone’s favorite Jewish-American Princess (the good kind) is going nowhere in 2012. Jennifer Lawrence

In a year that started with an Oscar nomination for Best Actress (Winter’s Bone), Jennifer Lawrence looked amazing at the annual award show in a classy red dress. She went on to don blue scaled skin as Mystique in X-Men: First Class, which as Rebecca Romijn taught us, is a tough look to pull off. Only 21, the actress will make a huge leap next year in the film adaptation of hit novel The Hunger Games?a role many fans thought she wasn't right for until Entertainment Weekly debuted a photo of her as the character in May. If the film franchise becomes huge (a la Harry Potter and Twilight), Lawrence will become a household name like Kristen Stewart, only less awkward in TV interviews. Zoe KravitzAnother sexy mutant from X-Men: First Class, Zoe Kravitz, the daughter of rocker Lenny Kravitz and former Cosby Show kid Lisa Bonet, has matured into quite the sultry-eyed beauty. Having modeled for Elle and Vera Wang (your girlfriend knows who that is), Kravitz doesn’t only share the acting bug she got from her mom (and lately her dad, who coincidentally will appear in The Hunger Games with Lawrence). The 23-year-old also fronts the band Elevator Fight, which…sounds like a difficult place to fight. The band seems to play gigs sporadically, so stay tuned to their Twitter feed folks! Rosie Huntington-WhiteleyReplacing Megan Fox as the female lead in Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley had some pretty big (and crazy) shoes to fill. The British model, best known for being a Victoria’s Secret Angel, made her acting debut in the summer blockbuster and, while the reviews were mixed, the movie went on to become the fourth highest grossing film of all time. (Not too shabby for your first gig.) The leggy 24-year-old is also currently dating action star Jason Statham, who is 20 years her senior (44). As if the man needed more reasons to be awesome. Alex MorganThe U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team made headlines this year for nearly winning the 2011 FIFA World Cup, losing out to Japan in a heartbreaking shootout final. While the team ultimately fell short, the inspiration they provided for their country was monumental, and Alex Morgan (the team’s youngest player at 22) cemented her status with two goals in the final two games. She also happens to be very good looking and looks cute wearing a headband. Morgan also plays for the Western New York Flash of the Women’s Professional Soccer (WPS) league and should be representing her country at the next Women’s World Cup (2015) in Canada. Kelli HutchersonIn the world of MMA, the role of the Octagon Girl provides some much needed eye candy?and contrast to the dudes beating each other into a bloody pulp in the ring, er, Octagon. This past year, no girl has made quite an impact as 22-year-old up-and-comer Kelli Hutcherson of the Strikeforce organization. Dubbed Miss Strikeforce 2011, the blond bombshell is an expert at showing off her ass-ets. You can check her out at several Strikeforce events in 2012.Jamie Chung

A cast member of the Real World: San Diego from all the way back in 2004, Jamie Chung did what many castoffs of the MTV reality franchise tend to do?pursue an acting career. Lucky for the 28-year-old San Francisco native, she’s talented and endearing enough to sustain success. Chung had a busy summer, with a starring role in the action chick flick Sucker Punch, as well as a supporting role as Stu’s (Ed Helms) fiancee in The Hangover Part II. Next year, she’ll star in the really cool sounding martial arts flick The Man with the Iron Fists (directed by the RZA and starring Russell Crowe), as well as the not-so-cool sounding Premium Rush, a Joseph Gordon-Levitt thriller about…bike messengers. Glee Girls (Naya Rivera and Dianna Agron)It’s OK fellas. You don’t have to admit to watching Glee, to acknowledge that these two actresses are hot. We aren’t here to judge (unless that is, judging the hotness of the ladies on this list). Having said that, Naya River and Dianna Agron, who play Santana Lopez and Quinn Fabray, respectively, on the hit Fox show can both sing and dance their hearts out. And better yet, they’re usually doing it in skimpy cheerleading outfits. In real life, Rivera is heavily involved in charities while Agron is an animal activist, so it appears as if they are good human beings as well. Alyson “Aly” MichalkaGrowing up as a child actress/musician (she’s in a band, 78violet, with sister Amanda), Aly Michalka entered the sexy stratosphere this year thanks to her role on the CW cheerleading drama Hellcats, in which she showed off her amazing abs every week in midriff-baring cheerleading uniforms. Unfortunately, the show did not make it to a second season this fall, but Michalka is a multi-talented youngster, who also starred in the fall thriller The Roommate (playing a character named Tracy Morgan, if you can believe it). Jaimie AlexanderIt’s hard to be the most desirable female in a film also starring Natalie Portman, but when you’re talking about Jaimie Alexander, the debate is as close as it gets. The two actresses, of course, shared the screen in this summer’s super hero hit Thor, in which Alexander played the warrior (princess?) Sif. The 27-year-old actress, also known for her role on ABC Family’s Kyle XY, is no stranger to action, having been one of a few girls on her high school wrestling team. In a no-holds-barred fight with Portman, our money is on Alexander. ]]>

After life on Windows, Skulls of the Shogun arrives on iOS

Post-mortal strategy game Skulls of the Shogun is out now on the App Store, almost a year after it debuted on Windows Phone. Developer 17-Bit also released the game for Windows 8, Windows, Xbox 360, and later Steam, but today's arrival brings the game to iPhones and iPads for the first time, priced at $5.

17-Bit's Jake Kazdal told Pocket Gamer the iOS games is based on the Steam version the studio released in the summer. That means the tweaks and additions to that port are in the iOS version, including the extra episode and Tanuki monk unit.

As for multiplayer, the iOS port supports real-time "pass-and-play" on one device, as well as asynchronous turn-based battles online. Like other versions the multiplayer is cross-platform compatible, albeit only with Steam.

We were big fans of 17-Bit's take on a samurai's afterlife, awarding Skulls of the Shogun the full five stars in our review. As Jess put it, "Skulls of the Shogun is joyful, cheeky, and like most memorable experiences, it's best with friends."JoystiqAfter life on Windows, Skulls of the Shogun arrives on iOS originally appeared on Joystiq on Wed, 27 Nov 2013 08:15:00 EST.
