Okay, I lied. I mentioned last week I’d go over more skills and perks, but seriously, what good will it do me to expound upon those aspects of the game if nobody wants to play it? So the question I’m going to try and answer should be obvious: why would someone want to play it?… Continue reading Everything's Cooler in Space: It Ain't Rocket Science

Movie Review: Terminator Salvation
Cast: Christian Bale, Sam Worthington, Moon Bloodgood, Anton Yelchin, Bryce Dallas Howard, Common, Michael Ironside and Helena Bonham Carter. The best thing I can say is that it’s not bad. Stuff I Didn’t Like: The whole movie looked and felt like a first-person shooter. Big CG-driven action sequences, a color palette that has huge swatches… Continue reading Movie Review: Terminator Salvation
