The Politicians Have Eyes

March 10, 2006 by Bartoneus

There is a Gamespot news article detailing Joe Lieberman and Hillary Clinton’s latest attempts to stab at the heart of the evil, youth-eroding industry that is Video Games. For a long time they have been set on finding some way to legally prohibit the distribution, if not the very creation, of violent video games in […]

POWERS: Psychotic

March 8, 2006 by spankleberry

Powers Graphic Novel # 9: Collecting Volume 2 Issues 7-12 What can I say about Powers? It’s one of the best written comics I know of, or at least one of my favorites, and certainly the only currently ongoing comic I actively seek out.

alan moore interview

March 7, 2006 by spankleberry

As I was getting thrown out of the store (“meh it’s 6pm and we’re closing.” gits) I saw an A3 (like 11×17 but foreign) local magazine featuring a long in depth interview with Alan Moore, the genius shaman of comic books- most notable movie translations for the illiterate: The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, From Hell, […]

Elder Scrolls IV Now Gold!

March 3, 2006 by DarthCthulhu

According to Gamespot, Oblivion has finally gone gold! I think I speak for everyone everywhere (well, everyone who isn’t a ninny) when I say: WOOOO! Of course, we should wait for confirmation from a certain architect who works in the same building as Bethesda Softworks. But still… WOOOHOO!

BattleStar Galactica- Season 1

March 2, 2006 by spankleberry

Fiending for my sci-fi junk, I shot up this remake of a childhood favorite. Granted it IS better than the original, but not so much so I’d recommend you running out and purchasing one of your own, even from a secondhand store such as I did. There are certainly moments of interest: the Armatage III-esque […]

Hilarious comic book covers

March 1, 2006 by joshx0rfz

I don’t really give a damn about comics (I may be fired for saying that) but these are damn funny. Like Woah Let me clarify, I don’t give a damn about comic books unless they are made into a half-decent movie. -Josh

More bitching about WoW (and other MMORPGS)

February 28, 2006 by Dave

We must be edgy. We used “bitch” in two post titles today alone. Anyway, Ralph Koster, an executive in the MMORPG industry, posted a hilarious list of things that can be learned from MMORPGs. “Intelligent beings who have civilizations and languages of their own are generally evil and should be slain.” (link via the directory […]

I'm the Juggernaut, Bitch!

Hysterical.

After this comes the Batman/Battle Pope crossover

February 25, 2006 by Dave

Frank Miller, creator of the seminal Dark Knight Returns and who recently got more press thanks to the Sin City movies, was in a lot of the papers due to his next project Holy Terror Batman. The gist is that Batman is going to fight Osama Bin-Laden. Miller originally announced the project after 9-11, but […]
