Death, it stalks us - according to the Toltec shamans - at every turn in our lives, every corner it's behind us, following us. We cannot avoid it, even when we try to escape from reality when we play video-games. As this gruesome yet awesome list of morbid scenes from PC games shows.

It has the exploding, fiery, twitching, detailed dying bodies of the creatures from Starcraft 2 - those developers must be some sick puppies. It also has the disturbingly enjoyable catastrophe of a roller coaster crashing into innocent men, women and children in RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and the haunting sight of a field of slain Romans from Rome: Total War.

It's got plenty more as well, so go check it out for your morose afternoon death fix.

Orange has launched a great new application, an innovative social music experience that allows you to create remixes of well known tracks using your own voice, so you can be the star. You can go it alone or by using Facebook Connect create a joint track with up to 27 friends each recording a different part. Don't panic if your voice isn't pitch-perfect, because after recording the song you can change the pitch and auto-tune your best efforts.

It's easy to use, you can record yourself rocking out by using your PC microphone or by dialling a number on your mobile, then share your popstar glory with the world via the usual social networking suspects.

Orange RockCorps is a music-led volunteer programme. By volunteering to help out within your local community you can earn yourself a free ticket to an exclusive gig, a gig which you can't buy a ticket to. Check out how to register and how to start recording your own remix.
