Inq. of the Week: Comic Con

July 30, 2007 by Dave

Last week, we asked what you thought of a certain Boy Wizard, now that his tale has found an end. Edging out first place at the last minute are those of you who are so-so on both the books and movies. Second place were the superfans, which is pretty impressive. Over the weekend, Comic Con […]

Farscape to Return?

July 17, 2007 by Dave

Maybe that’s part of the reason that Stargate SG-1 folded: to get Ben Browder and Claudia Black available again. According to SciFiWire, Farscape has been picked up as a ten episode web series. To quote the article: ” SCI FI Channel will revive its popular original show Farscape as a Web-based series of short films […]

July 11, 2007 by Dave

Origins 2007 Friday

July 6, 2007 by Dave

The trip to Ohio ended up being uneventful, and the day before I headed to the con was filled with some Guitar Hero 2, Big Bumpin’, poker, and Omega Virus… and my glasses broke. It took two tries to find an eyeglasses store that could fit me in on the day after the 4th of […]

Flog the Horse Once More

July 1, 2007 by Bartoneus

Fallout 3: Developer Q & A with the Press (Part 1)

These questions were all asked by various members of the press who attended, and I have absolutely no idea […]

Fallout 3: An Outsider's Inside View

July 1, 2007 by Bartoneus

Back in early June I was fortunate enough to attend the Fallout 3 Press Event at Bethesda Soft, where we got to see about an hour’s worth of game play and ask a whole lot of questions with Todd Howard, Emil Pagliarulo, and Pete Hines. Right off I would like to extend a huge thank […]
