Vids: Justice League: Throne of Atlantis Review

Aquaman does not seem to get the love he deserves. There was Throne_Atlantisan episode of Family Guy where they mocked him about how he was powerless out of the water. I have never thought that, I have always thought Aquaman was kinda cool. When I was a kid there was an Aquaman cartoon which was my introduction to the character.  In this cartoon Aquaman rode a giant seahorse, which was lame, but it left a lasting impression on me.

Training Simulations: Call of Duty Advanced Warfare (Single Player) Review

By now you might be familiar with the new Call of Duty Advanced COD Advanced WarfareWarfare from all the advertisement and hype around its release. This is a new form of Call of Duty, specifically dealing with futuristic combat situations and the evolution of equipment that could be available in that future and headlined with the voice acting talents of Kevin Spacey. Activision themselves are also boasting that their new plan is to have one developer work on  a new Call of Duty title in three year cycles improving the quality of their games. If true to their word, it will only bring forth big things.  I can honestly say that this plan has succeeded with Call of Duty Advanced Warfare, for the most part that is.  The single player and multiplayer portions of this Call of Duty are so different in quality and production values that they deserve separate reviews.
