The Vox Box

Attack of the Show builds world’s largest arcade machine

I saw the post about the US's tallest man below, and thought, "Why didn't I do this earlier?" On what so happens to be the best programming on the air to date, Attack of the Show on G4, yet another world record was established. In the past, they've built the world's largest and smallest working Super Nintendo controllers, and now they've done it again.

The show built the world's largest working arcade machine in their lobby. Here's an article posted by Engadget, and the actual website (it takes a minute to load) here.



In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
