True Blood: Episode 3 "Whatever I Am, You Made Me"

"Whatever I Am, You Made Me" *Spoilers Ahead* I have to say, this weeks True Blood was a major improvement over the last two. So maybe the show is starting to pick itself up again. I hope so. This week starting off with Tara trying to fight her new vampire urges. She seems erratic and unstable. I'm sure being dead then turned into a vampire isn't helping with her sanity. Tara refused to see Lafayette and Sookie like usual and Sam was given the burden of taking care of a crazy Tara, later putting her in the freezer when the sun was up. The end of the episode showed us exactly what to expect from Tara this season, a self loathing...

First Look Demo: Kingdom Hearts 3D

When I heard there was a Kingdom Hearts game coming out on the 3DS, I had the feeling that a longtime KH fan would have- is it Kingdom Hearts 3!? Sadly, no, it is not. But don't be sad, unlike other spin-offs we've been served, Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance is a continuation of the story. That's right- a game where supposedly, by the end of it, we'll be finally ready to understand what is going on, or what will go on, in Kingdom Hearts 3. Nintendo was nice enough to put a demo of this game up on their eShop, so naturally I went and downloaded it. Here's the inside scoop on what you'll get, but let me say this now- GET IT....

First Look: Lego Batman 2 DC Super Heroes

Today we're going to take a look at a game released on June 19th, 2012: Lego Batman 2. This game got a lot of hype on the internet, had a few advertisements over usual at Gametops and other gaming stores, and caught my eye personally. Being a comic reader, I'm always interested in games that are based on Comics,because while they already have established stories, these games give you an option to explore "What if..." scenerios, different variations of plots, and of course being in control of the characters. If you've ever played a LEGO brand game, you know what's in store for you. If you don't, here's my first look into the game and...

Book Review: Catching Fire, by Suzanne Collins

One might think that Suzanne Collins named this book after the hype that would befall her series in only a short time.  The Hunger Games series has caught fire and is burning brightly.  I assume if you are reading this then you have some interest in the series and have read or seen The Hunger Games so my apologies if I spoil the book that previously was released. We left off with Katniss and Peta having won the Hunger Games as a team, the first time two winners ever existed in the history of the games.  Their inseparable bond that grew inside the arena unfortunately for Peta did not continue outside of that same arena. ...

Project M Character Analysis: Lucario Revisited

We had a look at Lucario last time, but this time around, we'll discuss him in a bit more detail as far as what his new options afford him the ability to accomplish.  Combos are the name of the game with Lucario.  His individual attacks aren't especially powerful, so to rack up the damage and prep for a kill, you'll want to string together as many quick hits as possible, always aiming to end with Force Palm.  And let's be honest - the new aerial Force Palm is just so fun to use.  Just be weary of good techers; they'll be waiting to punish you, so follow with a down air or neutral air to be safe. Buffering was touched...

WWE Raw Wrapup - 6/25/2012

WWE Raw - June 25th, 2012 Chris Jericho returns tonight - At the very least, we have that to look forward to.  They should quickly work to build a program for him leading into Money in the Bank; people are always happy to see Jericho.  The show opens with a video, yet again, of the CM Punk/Daniel Bryan/Kane/AJ scenario.  This is a bright spot, as it focuses on the WWE Championship. After the video, AJ is in the back, explaining things, though she is the only one on screen.  Tonight, she seems to be in a bit of a Kane-themed outfit again.  She needs to drift from Bryan, Kane causes her inhibitions to subside...
