    Anyone reccomend a good superhero cartoon?

    I'm guessing you've seen most of the DCAU series plus most of the Marvel contemporaries. For something less obvious I'll recommend Legion of Superheroes. This show really ups in quality in it's second season. I do recommend watching at least a couple of episodes of the first season to get a...

    Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance: A no Nostalgia Review

    Hey, nice review. I haven't seen the movie, nor did I ever plan on seeing it. I just might check it out later though thanks to this review. I had a feeling that most reviewers were being a bit harsh on the film. If it's on par with the Hulk reboot that's good enough for me. Did you know that...

    Games and storys....are we doing it wrong?

    I think video game stories could be better if they didn't just emulate books or movies in how they tell they're stories. It doesn't necessarily have to be interactive (as in dialog choices). The Half-Life and Metroid Prime series do this fairly well. A lot of information is derived from...

    In your opinion, what would the perfect spiderman game need to have?

    The emphasis has to be on web-slinging. Make it much more involving, the swinging in the past Spider-Man games were too easy and felt too automatic. It wasn't nuanced or precised enough. Something like Bionic Commando (2009) but with a more agile character would be perfect. An open-world is...

    How important are graphics to you.

    It depends I guess. I'd rather have an ugly game that plays well then a nice looking one that's stinks. That said sometimes nice graphics can elevate a game. Alice: Madness Returns was a fairly boring game but I still finished it because the game was interesting to look at (I guess it was more...

    TV Reccomendation

    Not a big fan of TBBT. It's everything I hate about sitcoms. Laugh tracks, lazy multi-cam setups, obvious setups and punchlines, and characters that wait for laughs. Plus the geek culture stuff feels very superficial and phony. There so much more I could complain about...sorry, just had to get...

    Favorite Visual Novels?

    I've played a decent amount. Off the top of my head I've played four Ace Attorney games, Hotel Dusk: Room 215, Ever 17, Remember 11, and 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors. I actually enjoyed all of them except for Remember 11. I highly recommend to anyone interested in Visual Novels...

    Cartoon Network Draws On Comic Fans With DC Nation

    So, who saw the one hour Green Lantern: The Animated Series premier? (It aired in the US not sure about the UK) I'll admit the CGI put me off. Now that I've seen it though, I thought it was fantastic and definitely lived up to the "Animated Series" name. The characterizations and voice-acting...

    Your current desktop.

    I'm too lazy to create a photobucket account (or any website with similar function) and upload an actual picture of my desktop. Not that it matters too much since I have zero shortcuts on my desktop. It's based on this image. I edited to fit my screen's native resolution and added a beam...

    Dead Space...is it just me?

    From what I can tell the sluggish mouse controls in the original Dead Space was never fixed. There's a couple of things you could do (stuff already mentioned in the thread) but it will always feel off. The mouse controls in Dead Space 2 is much improved. I can't figure why they couldn't get...

    Multiplayer Anxiety

    It's not that big a deal if you're not good at a multiplayer game. Especially, a Battlefield game since there's a lot of people on each team. People aren't going to notice if someone is playing badly. There's always going to be bad players in every game, no need to worry about being called out...

    Poll: Your favorite superhero

    For the sake of not saying what everyone else has already said I'll go with someone other than Batman. Daredevil is my favorite superhero next to Batman. I'm sad to see that nobody else has mentioned him yet; I guess that awful Daredevil film did him no favors. I love the current run of...

    Please prove me wrong about Marvel.

    Darn, I thought I'd be the first to recommend this. This has got to be my favorite Spider-man story; excellent stuff. I'll go as far as saying it's on par with it's more famous contemporaries such as The Dark Knight Returns and Watchmen. It's a little darker than what most would expect from a...

    Buying a DS...whats its best games?

    999: 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors It's a visual novel/adventure game. The game pulls off something quite unique; something that can only be done in videogames. The story and how it unfolds is brilliant. It might not seem all that extraordinary in the beginning, but if you have the patience...

    Extra Punctuation: Death in Videogames

    As others have mentioned, the game concept Yahtzee describes sounds a lot the game Second Sight. However, in that game it only applied to the story and didn't really tie into the actual game mechanics. If a sequel to Second Sight was ever made it would probably be a lot like the game Yahtzee...
