Vids: G.I. Joe: Retaliation Review
When we last saw the G.I. Joe team they had scored a major victory over the evil organization called Cobra. Cobra’s Arctic base was destroyed, their plan to use nanomites 
as weapon was thwarted and Cobra Commander and Destro were behind bars. Good had triumphed over evil as it should. But there was a major loose end that the Joes knew nothing about; Zartan (Arnold Vosloo) had assumed the identity of the President of the United States.
Now the G.I. Joes have returned to the big screen with G.I. Joe: Retaliation. This sequel brings back only 2 of the original Joes from the first movie, Duke played by Channing Tatum and Snake Eyes played by Ray Parks. We are introduced to some of the new Joes including Roadblock (Dwayne Johnson), Flint (D.J. Cotrona) and Lady Jaye (Adrianne Palicki).
Caution: Spoilers! Continue reading

What if werewolves were actually living among us? What if they

Wilder still, what if these clans of werewolves were actively policed by a government organization?
That’s exactly the intriguing question IDW Publishing is answering today with the release of BROOKLYN ANIMAL CONTROL, a darkly thrilling digital one-shot from writer J.T. Petty (Splinter Cell, Bloody Chester) and artist Stephen Thompson (Star Trek: New Frontier). Continue reading

Training Simulations: DuckTales Remastered Announced by Capcom
Capcom ended its panel at the PAX East convention last week w
ith the announcement that three titles from its revered catalogue – DuckTales , Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom and Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over Mystara – are making a welcome return on multiple platforms in the coming months. Originally released in 1989 on the Nintendo Entertainment System, DuckTales was widely acknowledged as one of that generation’s seminal platform titles. Taking its cue from the Disney cartoon series of the same name, DuckTales Remastered follows the adventures of Scrooge McDuck as he explores differently themed worlds to collect their treasures and become the world’s richest duck. I can honestly say it was also my first peek into electronic 8-bit music love…it’s so bad, it’s awesome. Go moon theme GO! Continue reading

The Klingons are a culture steeped in tradition, shrouded i

When not trying to kill an opponent with one of a variety of edged weapon they go to the old stand-by, a Klingon Disruptor. This weapon is larger than its Federation counterpart and like the Klingons themselves it is very intimidating looking. Continue reading
