  1. Title is fairly self explanatory I think. I'm curious why they're your favorite as well. If you care to bother to say. I just started with Matt Smith, but it seems like the continuity is not so fluid I can't watch earlier ones when I run out of this series.

    Well I was just thinking about "game of the year" and how pretty much everyone that gives that award away will give it to a AAA title Which makes sense, they have the most quality because they have the most funding behind them The only other way in which we really judge games is by genre and if it's indie or not So "Best game" "Best X game" and "Best game that wasn't made by a major studio" What if instead we separated games into "weight classes" like they do in boxing? So something like $0-$59,000 $60,000-$299,000 $300,000-$999,000 $1,000,000-$5,999,000 $6,000,000+ Actually I think that may be a bad example of ranges but whatever you…

    Yes, Demon's Souls is finally being published in Europe by Namco Bandai. I was tempted to rent it from Blockbuster yesterday, but then I chickened out LOL. The red box for Europe is nice... http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=242920 Edit: Demon's souls is now on sale at both Amazon.com and .ca (don't know about others) for $29.99!!!

    Apparently it starts next week so time for a new thread. Anyone else excited? Any theories on the upcoming season? My only theory is that I think at the end of the season Clay is going to retake control of the club. I think Jax is going to underestimate Clay and somehow he's going to get backed into a corner where the only option is watch the club go down or let Clay fix the problem.

    I'm amazed that there's no topic on this already, considering how huge this show is. I heard a lot about it, so I thought I'd see what all the hype is about - and I have to say it's a great show. I'm really into cartoons, so I finished the whole show in a week or two, and I'm glad I checked it out. In comparison to other kid's cartoons, I'd put it above PowerPuff Girls (which I loved), but below Spongebob (which is amazing). I also hear Adventure Time is good, so that's up next. So ya, there must be other fans about on the forums, what do you think of the show? Who are you favourite characters? (Mine is Fluttershy :D) Season 3 is coming out in November, who's exicted?…

    This list will be updated as I see movies. With half the year complete I figured it was time to give you my list (so far). I am not including movies coming out later in the year. 1. The Avengers - Really the only movie currently on my list I expect to be in my top 10 by the end of the year. 2. The Hunger Games - Surprisingly good adaptation of source material. 3. Prometheus - It has it's flaws but overall entertaining. 4. Chronicle - I really need to watch more movies from 2012. 5. Man on a Ledge - Good pacing but pretty predictable and forgettable. 6. Underworld: Awakening - By the end of the year this will be in my top 10 worst movies of 2012. 2012…

    Hey guys, First and foremost I apologise for neglecting this forum, as I have been away from the project of creating Tar Valon. In my absence I have seen a few other projects of similar nature come about, but I am back and with a mission to finish what I started... Tar Valon in direct 1:6 scale in minecraft. I am following the maps, drawings and my own imagination. Well this was 8 months ago, as it stands I am millions of blocks through production, and I literally just released a new video of the North Harbor and Docks. This my friends is a project that is nearly unrivaled in size, and I so far have spent hundreds of hours to get this far and I …

    So, I didn't find any topic on this, and the search seems to be down, so I'm chancing that there aren't any topics on this. Overhaul games are right now... well, overhauling Baldur's Gate. I'm not sure if it's just me, but this game is a major part of me growing up, and I'm stoked that I'll be able to play this again. The PC version is just out (with some bugs it seems) and the mac and iPad version is having some hickups, but is on que now for Apple to approve so we can enjoy. Although it seems they got some troubles getting up and running I'm just so stoked about soon beeing able to play this game again!!! http://www.baldursgate.com/

  17. It's been a long wait but this is finally coming out. And guess what? 2 Player Productions has actually put up a torrent on Pirate Bay for their own documentary. Here's what they had to say about it. Pretty cool IMHO. I really hope that this show of understanding and goodwill nets them more sales.

    Probably not but I am really hoping for a movie to finish of the story in a more concise way. Regardless this tweet indicates that Stargate related is being worked on and it will have to do with the Destiny from SGU. Even if it's not a reboot or even a movie I'm still excited that something new is coming out of the Stargate franchise. Edit: Apparently Dinnerbone (Minecraft Dev) said if it's a movie or tv show he'll sneak something Stargate related into the next Minecraft update. Neat! Edit2: OH apparently it is a movie! Super awesome!!

    I have just finished playing the Walking Dead video game by Telltale.Now I am running around the internet trying to make sure everyone is playing it. The game was absolutely amazing, I have never had a video game actually bring tears to my eyes. But this game surely did. The game does not follow Rick Grimes or his group at all (there are a few cameos) but tells a new story set in the same world. Whether or not The Walking Dead can even be called a video game is debatable, there is very little game play, and the skill level a player needs to finish it is null. Most action sequences are point at a Walkers head and click or done with the dreaded QTE. But the game is presente…

    Thoughts? I played both quite a bit since they came out and being a pretty big FPS fan I gotta say I preferred Halo 4 by a large marigin BO2 was basically an interactive movie and not a great one at that I think there's MAYBE 45-90 minutes of gamplay depending on your competency and the difficulty you're playing on Which, ok, most people these days are buying FPS games for multiplayer A lot of them don't even ever play the story Fine Multiplayer for the CoD series has been worse and worse since the introduction of lag compensation I'm not going to even go into personal opinions on things like killstreaks and perks and whatnot because YMMV I guess but I know …

    Some of you may remember this game, other's don't. For those of you don't. The OP gets to pick a movie, and everyone else gets to guess what the movie is. Each Movie, gets only 20 questions. The OP can only answer with Yes, or No. As for movies? Only movies that are currently out on DVD, Can be used. (So you can't use the upcoming Hobit. Only movies already released, and on DVD. And Yes, you can use that obscure 1920s cult classic horror film if you want to!) Also note, That because some movies have been remade, its wise to use the Date the movie came out, to clarify, which movie is being refrenced. Anyways, I'll start this thing off... And all I have to s…

    Per the official DOCTOR WHO Twitter stream, a new companion has been selected to join Matt Smith during Season/Series 7 of DOCTOR WHO - which will transmit beginning later this year. What follows might be viewed as SLIGHTLY spoilerish in nature, but keep in mind that these are officially sanctioned info bits...so my guess is these points aren't too revealing in the grand scheme of things. The new companion joining the Doctor on his sprawling adventures across time and space is the rather stunning Jenna-Louise Coleman. Coleman appeared recently in CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER, but may be better known for her role as Jasmine in EMMERDALE. Per Steve…
