WatchA new International trailer for Avatar and holy crap it’s good. I was left underwhelmed by the original trailers for Avatar but my word this makes it look like the greatest film of all time.

Torchlight
So Torchlight is one of those little project’s you hope will do well even though you think that it is going to get destroyed by a bigger AAA title on the horizon (in this case Diablo 3). I think Perfect worlds knew this and that is why they split the project up into two parts, the first a single player only action-RPG where all of the unnecessary stuff has been scaled back to introduce you...
WatchThe special Halloween episode of the Guild, enjoy.

WatchNew web comedy show based around the Voltron kids thing and starring Fran Kranz (Topher from Dollhouse). Fran Kranz is someone who consistently impressed me in each and every episode of Dollhouse and then proceeded to blow me away with his performance as the broken Topher in “Epitaph One” and this Megabot is his take turn to be in funny/weird web show, all the cool kids are doing it...

WatchOk so I was going to write a review of Arkham Asylum but I was having to much fun playing it and other stuff getting in the way, then I realised I didn’t have to since it’s Wednesday and Yahtzee almost exactly summed up how I was feeling about the game anyway. The only thing I will add to his review is the Riddlers challenges piss me the fuck off, I don’t mind little side-quests...

New Season Premières: The Vampire Diaries
Ok it is with Massive trepidation that I approached this series as I am fast running out of love for all these vampire re-inventions (except for True Blood of course as that is a perfect vampire/porn hybrid) but there were a couple of elements to this story that intrigued me so here is the basic premise.
Elena (played by Nina Dobrev), who has recently lost her parents in a car crash, starts her...

New Season Premières: Supernatural S05
Yes Supernatural is back, one of my favourite guilty pleasure shows. Yes, it’s stupid. Yes the storyline has gotten progressively worse and yes Jared Padalecki isn’t the worlds greatest actor. But to counteract all that Jensen Ackles is a great star in the show and the music is the best music you will ever hear on TV, FACT.
The show is about two brothers (Sam and Dean) who upon...

WatchDeathspank trailer, this game has to be one of my most anticipated games on the horizon, combining a visually stunning pop-up book art style with Monkey Island style humour and adventuring all inside a Diablo style hack’n’slash game. This has to be made of win.

Canabalt (or what Mirrors Edge should have been) →
Canabalt is about as simple as a game gets but that is also what makes it so fun and more-ish. It’s a one-button, randomly generated jump-fest with great music and style. Go. Play. NOW.

How to destroy a reactionary moron in one... →
The woman who is ultimately responsible for the entire idea that the healthcare bill includes provision for these so called death panels got pretty much destroyed by John Stewart on Thursday, this is a good link to a short analysis of it which also links the video in.

WatchThis is the latest trailer for the upcoming Diablo III which better be supreb or Blizzard staff will get hunted down and strung up. Must admit I am being drawn to the Monk class for this game when it finally arrives.

Review: District 9 - So much more than Sci-Fi
District 9 is one of those films that I have watched & read more and more about in the past couple of weeks due in no small part to a very engaging online hype campaign all of which left you with the feeling that this was going to be slightly more intelligent, visually very gritty and realistic but still just a summer blockbuster, albeit a very good one. It turns out I couldn’t have been...

Desktop Twitter Client Review: Seesmic
Twitter is a wonderfully useful service however as soon as you start to use it in any depth you find out how woefully inadequate the website is to manage your account which is why you will find a plethora of different twitter clients for your desktop, iGoogle page, Smartphones and just about anything else you can think of.
Seesmic (stupid name) is an Adobe Air app, so it will run fine on any...

Windows 7 Tip: Hidden shortcuts to important...
Windows 7 is a wonderful OS that has improved upon just about everything that came in XP & Vista (although with the latter that wasn’t very hard) however the ability to right-click on a folder and open a command prompt in that location as well as several other commands is something I have always wanted to be native to the client, sure in other versions of windows there were registry...

Boxee Aplha - Initial impressions
I’ve always wanted a decent media centre for my house, a PC that I can watch and record TV on, control with a snazzy remote and also use to store all the music & movies for the entire household network. There has always been one problem however, all media centre software has been crap, sure some of it shows good potential but have either faltered by the wayside or been so full of odd...
