    The Big Picture: Stars, Worn

    So wait, Bob...you are a WWE fan or just used the news for the purpose of metaphor because there is a very real booking metaphor you could make of WWE booking forward long standing people like Randy Orton, Triple H, Cena, and now the returning Batista instead of guys who are over as all getout...

    I think I've found the gayest singer ever.

    Max Payne 3 Screens Show the Many Faces of Payne

    As long as they have the original writer on it and a few new songs by Poets of the Fall, I cannot really see too much wrong going with this game. Although I assume the "Dead on Arrival" ending is not going to be considered canon. Max cannot be happy, it would ruin things.

    The Final Showdown Has Begun - BioWare versus Mojang

    I'm....not very happy with this match-up being the end, but I saw it coming (I had my idealized bracket with Obsidian winning, and no, I do not apologize for that). The way I see it, Bioware has really not done very well in terms out outright quality other than with the Mass Effect games (which...

    Black Swan Composer Takes Over Mass Effect 3

    I am very very excited about this choice especially since I own the Moon soundtrack. Really, as long as we don't have the plots of those movies in Mass Effect 3. Shepherd goes to defeat the Reapers in his giant, Aztec tree bubble. Sorry to say, but The Fountain was a soundtrack with...

    Top Gear Makes Virtual Racing Champ Upchuck

    There are those who say the very sight of him can cause projectile vomiting, and he only cook turkey in March. All we know is he's called The Stig.

    Twilight: Bella is SUPPOSED to be a flat character.

    Yes, yes it is, but the conference specifically stated the panel was on Twilight and Tru Blood.

    Twilight: Bella is SUPPOSED to be a flat character.

    As a Creative Writer that has both read extensively on the subject and taught on the subject, I can say that is only an excuse and, even if it was intentional, it is simply lazy writing. If Meyer really wanted to have the reader put themselves in the shoes of the main character, she would have...

    TGS '10: Devil May Cry Getting Reboot, Face-Lift

    Do you really put it past the writers of Devil May Cry (if it were the case) to not find some weird way to bring him back if they really wanted? "Mwa ha ha, I am Virgil, you know me well, I have come back thanks to this! (holds out sword) It is the Sword of Retcon! It allows me to change...

    TGS '10: Devil May Cry Getting Reboot, Face-Lift

    I'm not angry with this, but I am not happy with it either. From how DMC 4 seemed to go, I was expecting Virgil to come back to be evil, a flavor of evil that would need both Ichigo...I mean Nero and Dante. Yes, that story would be contrived, but it would be that generic anime silliness that...

    Unskippable Let's Play - Legaia 2

    Since obviously you guys are Mystery Science theatre fans, I must ask the Great Question: Are you bigger fans of the Mike episodes or Joel?

    More Schools Offering Game Degrees Than Ever, Says ESA

    From what my many Computer Info Science major friends tell me, a "Gaming Design" degree is equivalent to an "Applied Computer Information Science" degree which would be similar to an "Applied English Literature" degree in my case. It is useless. The overall problem just comes down to many game...

    Poll: Character Death and Random Chance

    I have no doubt that many of you have played Mass Effect 2 where character death actually plays a large part of the final battle, and it got me thinking about character death as a story piece over all. In The Hobbit, the big final battle ends and Bilbo realizes that many of the fellows he...

    WoW's Money Receives Real-World Port

    So WoW and Glenn Beck now have something in common? They both encourage you to overpay for gold?

    Over-Dramatic James Bond Openings Live On in Blood Stone

    Video gave me bad Snake Eater flashbacks...somedays you feed on a tree frog indeed. That theme left me with this incredible feeling of "meh." Just not feeling the epicness of it and really they just copied some thing from the Casino Royale theme video. With the punching and the kicking...
