    E3 Preview: The Last of Us

    I shouldn't be this impressed that a game set after the apocalypse has actual color in it. But then, that's what I get for skipping out on Dead Island. Like everyone else has said, Ellie's going to make or break the game. The article made having to worry about her a little bit like an escort...

    One Million Moms Fights Gay Superheroes

    But wait, if it's Flash, then how does Bart even come to exist? (Wait, they DID say they were giving him a new backstory...)

    Escape to the Movies: The Hunger Games

    Aw, they didn't do reaction shots of the people watching from home? Seriously? This makes me sad. It was one of the possibilities I was most excited over when I heard this was getting a movie. They could have played up the "reality TV show" thing to an extent that it couldn't have been in the...

    Federal Court Rules that the X-Men are Not Human

    Why do I have a feeling this is a chekhov's gun setup so that when mutants really do appear on the earth, the courts will already have made to legal decision to not treat them as human? ...I really need to stop turning everything I read into a plot.

    261: Zero Punctuation: Achieving the Cross-media Transformation of Ludological Hermeneutics

    Someone just got bumped up a couple rungs on my "favorite internet writers" ladder. Well, that or he's found a new and obscure meaning for the word hermeneutics (for everyone that didn't grow up in a Christian school, that would be the study of how to study a religious text. Games are the Bible...

    Escape to the Movies: The Adventures of Tintin

    So very, very excited for Tintin. Grew up on him and the Aterix comics. Because I never read normal superhero comics when I was a kid (saved that for now), just relatively obscure foreign ones.

    U.K. Tabloid Plays the Videogames Cause Violence Card - Again

    People who played games for *ten hours a day* every day for a week experienced brain vague, unspecified brain chemistry changes? What a complete shocker. I would never have guessed. Now if they will finally stop throwing around jargon so people can understand what actually changed in the brains...

    Nintendo Shuts Down Fan-Made Zelda Movie

    I have actually followed this movie since it was first announced on youtube in, oh, 2006? Maybe a little bit earlier? No, that was when it was due to come out, I'm sure of it. My older brother showed it to me, and I loyally followed their webpage around for years, read most of their updates, and...

    Most Beautiful Video Game Location?

    Sailing in Zelda: Wind Waker, with a sunrise coming up behind one of the most dramatic thunderstorm's I've ever seen in that game. The music for both intertwining in the background and the way it reflected off the water. ^_^ Sad thing is I've played that game a ton and have only ever seen that...

    Poll: You must spend a year locked in a room.

    Is this a 4 meter x 4 meter room? Because if that's in feet I literally wouldn't be able to lay down comfortably, much less share the room with another person without having to smell someone that hasn't bathed in a year that closely. o_o
