Maybe they can get Michael Bay to direct

May 22, 2008 by Dave

Joystiq notes that the Castlevania movie is now back on track (and is Uwe Boll free.) But that’s not the only video game adaptation coming from the same studio. No, they also have the PAC MAN license! Yes, the hottest video game license from the early 80’s could be coming to a screen near you. […]

Review: Iron Man

May 1, 2008 by The Main Event

His ascendancy into superherodom doesn’t necessarily change that, it just gives him a sense of obligations and duty. His origins remain true in spirit, […]

Some Quick Stuffs

April 4, 2008 by Bartoneus

I can’t believe it was a year ago today that I posted my mocking comic of Dave being a french-blob game designer, but today he left again for his “secret con” that maybe he’ll find some sneaky internet lurking around out there to update us all on how it’s going. Keith Baker posted a great […]
