Diablo 3 Open Beta Weekend

This weekend only starting at 3:01 PM EST Blizzard will be launching the Diablo 3 Open Beta Weekend. It will last from today through 1 PM EST Monday the 23rd. The purpose of this open beta is a stress test on the Diablo III servers to ensure as smooth a launch as possible on May 15th.

WWE Raw Wrapup 4/16/12

Monday Night Raw – April 16th, 2012 Two weeks until Extreme Rules.  Seems like it’s always a countdown to something in WWE.  Brock Lesnar has been added to the intro credits already; quicker than normal.  I don’t think Lord Tensai is in there quite yet.  As per normal when the WWE is in London, we’ve got the London cab and telephone booth on stage.  Yawn. Match 1 – Mark Henry vs CM Punk (c), WWE Title Match (No countout, no disqualification) Cold open to a WWE title match, which speaks volumes about how much WWE values their titles.  Not to say they don’t value CM Punk, but they definitely don’t value...

The beauty and mystery of Fez

When I first got my hands on Fez I was already apprehensive about the new platform puzzler with the cool ambient chip tune music.

I assure you that Fez is nothing short of great. The thing is it's really difficult to pinpoint what it is about Fez that makes it so damn addicting.

It's the mystery behind it that keeps you going. You really don't know why it is you're doing the things that...

Tron Uprising trailer is 30 shades of sweet

Alright, I'm upset. Kids today have all these awesome animated shows. When I was growing up, we didn't have this fancy stuff. It was all GI Joe, Thundercats, Silverhawks, DBZ, and Reboot. Okay, so maybe it wasn't so bad, but nowadays everything is all CG and pretty. Disney's new animated series Tron: Legacy starts in June, and it looks damn good. Not to mention that they have top talent to do the voice work, with Elijah Wood, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Mandy Moore, Lance Henriksen, and Paul Reubens--yes even Pee Wee Herman. To be honest, I can't wait for this. I was a fan of the Avatar series (easily the best animated show of the last decade. Yea...

[Video] What would Battlefield 5 look like with Google glasses?

As you can already tell, we love Battlefield, but this video displaying what "Battlefield 5" would look like with Google glasses is pretty amazing. Someone had to go ahead and get creative with it and made something that I would love to see done. It reminds me of the movie "Gamer" in how the HUD displays itself. You essentially just enter this augmented reality on the fly while wearing your Google glasses. I fell in love with this concept, now if only it becomes a reality. ...
