Left 4 Dead fan movie struggles for cash

April 6, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Hobbit: Richard Armitage talks about playing Thorin Oakenshield

April 6, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I had no idea Richard Armitage was so tall. Sure, he seems like the tallest of the dwarves but at 6’2″ you can see why he doubted he would be cast. Looking forward to the Laketown scenes now. Not only do we have Stephen Fry to look forward too but we can try and spot […]

Doctor Who’s Karen Gillan succumbs to the zombie way

April 6, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Karen Gillan, who played Amy Pond, stars in this trailer for BBC America’s Nerdist. It’s not L’Oreal she’s promoting but z’Ombéal. I suspect the latter has a far greater challenge on their hands.

April 6, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The campaign for Fudge Dice and questions around gamer support

April 6, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Is the roleplaying industry actually an industry at all? Or is it just a commercialised hobby? Do fan made products keep prices down and so low that professionals struggle to earn their keep? Do players pirate more content than they pay for? These are old questions but they circled my thoughts as I watched this […]
