Born in Seoul, Cecil Kim moved to LW and later co-founded Section Studios. He’s worked on games like God of War (1, 2 and 3), Final Fantasy IX, Dead Realm and many more. I think he has the knack for scale – he can make things seem huge when he needs to. He’s not blogged […]

Interactive periodic table of fictional metals

June 11, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Yikes! It was 6 years ago that Geek Native shared a table of imaginary elements. Time for a new one. The latest comes from a company called Bodycote which specialise in heat treating various metals and alloys. Hopefully they’ve never had to treat any of the fictional metals and alloys on this periodic table. It’s […]

Out of this world fitba: A review of Rok of the Reds

June 8, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Brace yourself for a laugh at my expense! I saw a small comic company based in my native Scotland, I saw the industry legends John Wagner and Alan Grant (Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, et al) and I saw Intergalactic Spaceman. Would I review that? Of course! Sign me up. Except; I saw wrong. It’s not […]

Revolution or revenge: A review of Andromeda’s Choice

June 6, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

William Dietz is known for the Legion of the Damned series. I’ve not read that. I picked up at Andromeda’s Fall instead. In other words, with Andromeda’s Choice, I’m reading the sequel to the prequel series. I rather like it this way. If time allows I’ll move onto the Legion of the Damned and perhaps […]
