Comic-Con is said to be a mecca, where nerdom’s royals and their fan’s all come to geek out. Unlike other conventions or conferences based on pop culture, it is less about the fans paying homage to the guests of honor, than it is about EVERYONE paying homage to the culture. You may bump into Joss Whedon … Continue reading

Harley Quinn is Back…And She Is PISSED!
For those of you who didn’t buy Batman: Arkham City when it released… WtF is wrong with you?? Luckily, for you, though the Game of the Year Edition will be released May 28th, and in addition to the original Arkham City game, it will include all current DLC packs: The Batman Skin DLC: The Playable … Continue reading
New Borderlands 2 Gameplay & Character Previews
I’ll admit…I was late to Borderlands. Very late. Like, I am a level 10, late. But, holy hell, is it fun. I think the main reason Borderlands was not the biggest game the year it released was that it is kind of unclear wether it is a FPS or an RPG…but, truthfully, it is both. … Continue reading
Role Playing Game of Thrones: Video Featurette
The Game of Thrones from Atlus video game drops this Tuesday, and IGN has released a cool little featurette video, with some hard to understand commentary and very cool gameplay clips. I think the gist of what they are trying to say is that while typically video games based on TV shows are a bad … Continue reading
How Do You Make Game of Thrones Even More Appealing To Geeks?…You 16-Bit That Bitch, SON!
I just started this TFA PERSONS (read about it here) thing today, and already I’ve come across another one. DoctorOctoroc on YouTube has posted (created?) a bunch of 16-bit versions of pop-culture favorites, with incredible results. All of them would fit nicely on this blog, and this one is a (16-) bit old, but WTF?…I am … Continue reading
Playing Dead: The Walking Dead Game Episode 1
So, Telltale Games, the company that put out the wildly clever and refreshing Back to the Future: The Game, last year, is back (from the future?…I wonder if they need roads) with the brand spanking new, and totally rad The Walking Dead: The Game (available on PSN, Xbox Live, Mac & PC). Episode 1 just dropped … Continue reading
Are these the titles that will launch with the Nintendo Wii U?…Also, does anyone care?
Quick sidenote; did you know that the Xbox 360 launched seven years ago? WTF?… Incidentally, that is by far the longest any gaming system has been out without its successor being launched. Just for some perspective, the NES was out for five years before Super Nintendo which was followed by 64 in 1996 (5 years … Continue reading
More Avengers Schwag (This one has got BALLS)
There is a movie out. Its called The Avengers. That’s what they’re calling it, anyway…Sort of an “Earth’s Mightiest Heroes” kind of thing. Chances are, you’ve not only heard about the movie, but can’t get away from it. Every time you’ve gotten a Dr. Pepper…or, Slurpee, or Lotto ticket…Double A batteries…Land in Montana…you’ve no doubt … Continue reading
Elder Scrolls…Online, bitches
That’s right. G4 has just reported that Bethesda has announced an Elder Scrolls MMO…and that’s not all. But, the greatest MMO…OF ALL TIME! Well that’s something. Matt Firor (ZeniMax Online Studios), game director of The Elder Scrolls Online, spoke with G4 (in clear hyperbole) saying, “”We have been working hard to create an online world in … Continue reading
