I’ve a confession to make. I’ve not yet seen Zombieland. I’m hoping it’ll soon appear on Virgin Media‘s Movies on Demand section. I’ve heard nothing but good things about Zombieland – especially about the clever writing. That’s why news today that the pair behind the movie – Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick – are confirmed […]

Good enough to make you want to play the Star Trek MMO?
This little clip from the fortcoming Star Trek MMO is called “Exploration” and it certainly looks pretty. Looks like the MMO will give us a fair mix of spaceship combat as well as running around on worlds zapping each other with phasers combat. Could be interesting. The Star Trek MMO will benefit from the huge […]
Luke Goss as Death Race’s Frankenstein
They’re doing a prequel to the Jason Statham Death Race remake. Don’t worry; it’ll go straight to DVD. If you’ve seen the remake it has Jason Statham as a nice guy who just happens to be behind bars. The prison makes millions by pitting inmates against each other in a death race. The fan favourite […]
Iron Man stars in Cowboys & Aliens movie
The guys over at Whiskey Media’s ComicVine have noted that Cowboys & Aliens will start filming in July. It’ll be directed by Iron Man’s Jon Favreau. This is kinda cool because it had been rumoured for a while that the Iron Man duo of Robert Downey Jr and Iron Man would do another comic movie […]
BBC’s “Doctor Who Greatest Moments” snubs original Doctors
This might be an over reaction. It might be – but it really rubs me the wrong way. After The End of Time part 2 had played on UK TV the BBC ran a series of follow up shows including Doctor Who confidential. One of these shows was “Doctor Who Greatest Moments”. Great! I thought. […]
Cool motion reel animation
Videos like this rather impressive motion reel animation is why there’s a general “geek” category here at Geek Native. Mind you; I’d argue you don’t need to be a geek in order to appreciate how clever this animation is. Can you imagine how many takes it took to get this right or perhaps they got […]
Micro trailer for War of Legends hints at anime and Manhua
This trailer for the free-to-play multiplayer strategy game War of Legends is on my radar today because of the sheer mass of YouTube players it has. Not heard of it before but let’s hope it’s not another Evony clone. There’s really not that much to see the trailer except a Japanese war gathering and the […]
Square Enix to offshore Final Fantasy XIV to Western developers?
As the West prepares for Final Fantasy XIII there are some early hints that any sequel to the game might not come from Square Enix’s Japanese developers. The Final Fantasy series is seen as the archetypal JRPG so this will come as a shock to many. Square Enix’s President, Yoichi Wade, suggested to Edge magazine […]
Want the special edition of Heavy Rain? Got to go to HMV
Here in the UK high street retailer and internet come-back-kid has managed to grab the exclusive for Heavy Rain Special Edition. The Special Edition pack includes a XMB theme, a copy of the complete Heavy Rain soundtrack and the access to The Taxidermist from the Heavy Rain Chronicles. Special Editions are becoming big news in […]
Yay. Good news for Games Workshop
I’m so used to reading bad news about Games Workshop’s financial fortunes and then kicking off the annual debate about protecting Intellectual Property versus supporting fans. I almost read the headline wrong when I noticed a report stating that; Games Workshop was increasing its profits forecast. Games Workshop has more than 340 retail branches (a […]
