Darkspore is nearly the sequel to Spore. It’s a little different. For a start, EA are referring to it as a “Sci-Fi Action RPG”. Maxis Studio are still involved. In Darkspore the story starts with the player being woken up by Helix, a female AI, after eons of cryogenic sleep. The player is one of […]

Mass Effect Valentine’s Day
I can’t credit the author behind this geek brilliance. This picture is doing the rounds on Facebook and a two minute Google hunt turned up nothing so – naturally – gave up. If you know the artist – please share with us! If you don’t get the joke (why not?) then this is a Valentine’s […]
Batman Valentine’s Day
I think Deviant Artist Acturbo will have hit the nail on the head for many people this Valentine’s Day. Batman Forever Alone might be the only illustration of Batman (evah!) that justifies the decision to give Gotham’s dark knight a pink costume!
Star Wars Valentine’s Day
Here’s a set of rather cute Star Wars Valentine Day’s art work. Looks like Han and Greedo make up (though I’m not sure how) over ice cream. Is ice cream like the Force? There’s the light type of ice cream and the dark type of ice cream… and, er, um, something about all that bacteria […]
Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters game trailer

Instead, the Cry Havoc video – some of it looks like it’s sped up – shows off the multi-player […]
Will the Bulletstorm Cliffy B trailer make your head explode?
There’s been nothing but drama about EA’s Bulletstorm. We’ve had Americans says it encourages rape and Germans censor the game. Now we’ve got a short new trailer. Things blow up. I wonder whether the “Cliffy B” trailer has been designed with TV in mind. It’s short and punchy enough. I’m still wondering whether EA will […]

Halo Reach: Defiant Map pack trailer
The Halo saga continues. We have rumours that they might reboot the original but that does not mean the current holder of the Halo flame is extinguished. Just announced for Halo Reach is a new map called called Defiant. We’ve got the trailer below. There are three new maps; Unearthed, Condemned and Highlands. The pack […]
A lovely horror Valentines
Even monsters sometimes think about distractions other than stalking, killing and escaping. I think. Let’s take a flash back to the 50s and 60s and ask ourselves what some classic horrors might say to you this Valentine’s Day. Via Another mag.
