I'm originally from the East Coast, now living it up in sunny California. I worked for 1UP.com, writing for their cheats section. You may have seen some of my reviews, previews, and videos floating around there. I recently earned my Master's Degree in film and I'm still trying to figure out what to do with it. In the meantime, I spend my days laughing at stuff on Imgur and enjoy immersing myself in anything related to geek culture, whether it's videogames, music, clothing, film, etc. I also have a near-unhealthy fascination with/fear of the great vastness of space. Seriously, it's huge. We're like...nothing to the Universe. Ohmigosh...someone hold me...
Choker follows the tried and true formula for noir storytelling while adding in some unique, slightly supernatural elements. Unfortunately, die-hard fans of the genre will probably be looking for something with a little more depth than what’s offered here.
Every console cycle brings improvements over the previous generation. But there are still a few things that are still with us today, even after decades of improvements and refinements. Below are my top three things that need to be done with in gaming.
Picking up after the end of the Nickelodeon animated series, The Promise is the continuation of Aang, Sokka, and Katara’s adventures. While the TV show focused on their fight against the Fire Nation and Aang’s journey to fulfill his destiny as the new Avatar, this new series shifts tone quite a bit.
If you’ve ever wanted a little bit of James Bond in your Star Wars, well, you got it. In Dark Horse’s latest Star Wars series, Agents of the Empire, spies employed by the Galactic Empire protect the peace by any means necessary.
The Strain #1 is a solid start to the graphic novel series, and it ends on an appropriate cliffhanger. If Twilight isn’t your thing, and you’re more of a CSI fan, give The Strain a shot.
America may not be that “old” of a nation, but it has plenty of haunted houses rich with their own history. Recently, I visited one of the more famous haunted houses in the country: the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, California.
By now, you should already be accustomed to how this franchise works: someone in the house notices something freaky is going on, then sets up cameras to document it. Paranormal Activity 3 is no different, and that’s either good or bad depending on if the formula works for you or not.
Dungeon Defenders is a fantastic title, and not just for lovers of tower defense-style games. There’s a great mix of twitch, arcade-like gameplay, and hardcore strategy, not to mention that gamers who like to customize their characters and style of play will find this worthy of their time and money.
A foreign country, a dilapidated hotel, spooky kids, and poltergeist activity are great ingredients to any tale of the supernatural. Unfortunately, they don’t all meld together very well.
The Sylvian Experiments is perhaps one of the most tame Japanese horror films I’ve seen. It’s also one of the more boring ones I’ve watched in some time.
