Game Review: Chronicles of Riddick- Assault on Dark Athena (PS3)
The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena, which contains both the titular game and its precursor, 2004′s Escape From Butcher Bay, goes a long way to addressing and, for the most part, improving, the various beefs I have with the genre that is my least favourite and yet the most popular among my “demographic”, …

‘V’ returns!
I’m referring of course to the 80s TV movie/TV series, not the Alan Moore Film. Here are some stills:

Okay, everyone. Fine!
I’m on Facebook, too. So now I’m on Twitter and MySpace and ComicSpace and Facebook and LinkedIn, and none of them are going to be maintained well enough because I’m trying to keep this blog going and I’m not even doing THAT very well!

If Gorilla City from Flash comic books really does exist in our universe, and it’s the size of Topeka, KS, then we had better watch out for Gorilla Grodd! Bob and Brian cover this story.

The latest direct-to-video DCU Trailer is up on YouTube. An adaptation of the first arc of Jeph Loeb & Ed McGuMcGuinness’ Superman/Batman monthly.

Hey, It’s a Free Game!
One-hit deaths. Fiendish-but-fair level design. Spikes. Lasers. Robots. Isn’t that what action gaming is really about? You’ll find all five of these must-have elements in RUN JUMP, the new platformer from, um, me. RUN JUMP is platforming reduced to its simplest and purest elements– there’s no story, no weapons, no power-ups. Just moving from one …

Where are the Star Trek crews now?

Crazy week
Big Lost finale was tonight. I just knew they’d leave us hanging on something for another year. SPOILERS One odd bit. The Comicon Season 6 teaser video of Dr. Chang acknowledging President Bush and the Internet in 1977 did not get addressed this year. In fact, I don’t even see how it can have happened …

Could it be?
All this struggling with the poor quality of my podcast recordings… could it really be that my Microsoft LifeChat LX-2000 microphone headset just really sucks?

Sex Explosion Trek opens this weekend
In just a few days, J.J. Abrams launches his new “Kirk and Uhura’s Infinite Playlist” movie, and I am forced to admit that the Onion video I linked a few days ago was pretty much about me. This new movie is about a car-stealing reprobate who gets challenged to enter Starfleet and he makes it …

Capsule movie review – Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
It is a sign of a great movie that I love it despite the massive hippie-ness that infests the plot. Star Trek IV is a great movie. If they needed to go back in time to fight Gorn Marines to save San Fransisco hippies to insure the future… it really wouldn’t change the fact that …
