"My name is Russell Shoemaker. I sold technology to the world, back when there was technology...and people to sell it to." This line, repeated over and over through 130 (2 to 3 minute) episodes, is spoken by one of the most monotonous, dragging voices in recent history. But before I...

To Greasemoicockpal...: Your comments humble me. I'm more of a writer and have little to no experience with handling film or comedy. As for me being overlooked, well, that's simple: I don't post here often (I did, however, write two recent reviews: one for Afro Samurai, and one for Mega Man...

Damn, I screwed up here. Urgh, just start the review: Alright, I'm really sorry about this, guys. Anyway, for my second review, I'm gonna take a look at Mega Man X8, made and distributed by Capcom, for the PS2. This game is the latest in the X series (not counting the pseudo-RPG of Mega...

Um, actually, I did make a brief mention that Samuel L. Jackson was the producer and did some of the voices. In the paragraph that started with "Another moment of bad-assness..." and continued with "Maybe it's Samuel L. Jackson's presence..."; I also provided that additional mention in...

Heh! Heh! Thank you very much, sunami88. I appreciate your time and comments, especially about the research. I find it important that when a reader reads a review, they get the details, stuff they would know and stuff they wouldn't. Plus, examples of other characters/installments are good...

Already fixed it. Sorry about that. I went to edit, and everything clumped together.

Hello, Escapist citizens.  This is my first attempt at writing a review on this site.  I'm not good at writing reviews, but if you find any inconsistencies with the information I provide in the specs of Afro Samurai, please bring them to my attention.  I appreciate constructive criticism.  With...

I understand what/how the characters were saying things and the motivations/devices in this episode. I've also seen a few other episodes of De-Rez, but this, like the others (like Yahtzee's Biggest Fan, the Jack Thompson stints, etc) didn't tickle my fancy. Some observations for your leisure...

To Ixus Illwrath: Yeah, Minesweeper is fine. I like playing that game on occasion, but I always lose at it. To -Seraph-: You are awesome and I agree with you 110%. Old school games are where the fun is at. And I've played most of the Mega Man games as well (excluding Battle Network and...

The most recent system I bought was the Nintendo DS Lite, and that might the last new-generation system I will ever buy. I tried out the Wii not too long ago and found it frustrating to use (I played Wii Sports, Rayman 2: Raving Rabbids (when it should say Raving Retards...honestly, if you've...

Hello again, Escapist citizens. I went to an anime/videogame convention last weekend and bought a copy of Sega Smashpack Vol.1 for the Dreamcast. One of the games (out of twelve) inside was Streets of Rage 2. I love this game! It is addicting and challenging; I'm currently playing through...

Oprah with a Wii, huh? Reminds me of something I read about a couple of years ago: when one of the Halo games was released (number 2, I believe), there were numerous celebrities involved in a little exclusive gaming club, who got the game, a limited edition XBOX system, and a nifty suitcase to...

I've been seeing this ad flashing numerous times, and I'm sure you've all seen it. I remember reading about how Fable was supposed to be this 'know-all, end-all' RPG master project, but it turned out to be less than stellar. My former friend played Fable, and said it was good, but not good...

Having debuted at Comic-Con International in San Diego, the six-issue, limited edition Miror's Edge comic run is the result of a partnership between Electronic Art's Swedish studio DICE and DC Comic's brand WildStorm. Psst...you forgot an extra 'r' on 'Miror's Edge.

Fair enough.
