Geekly Recharge: Yosenex's Mass Effect Retrospective

Three years ago, a little after getting my Xbox 360, I decided to purchase the original Mass Effect Platinum Edition. I don’t consider myself to be much of a PC gamer, but I did play through all of Baldur’s Gate 1 and 2, Planescape Torment and Icewind Dale, so I had pretty high expectations. I thought Mass Effect would have a turn based feel like in Baldur’s Gate and was [...]

A very Happy Mothers Day to all of the geeky mothers out there. To celebrate, enjoy this clip of DC Nation’s Teen titans!  

 

Go Robo Comic Pulse! April 25th 2012 Edition

The end of April means that DC Comics is almost ready to launch the Second Wave of The New 52, I’m excited and curious about most of the new titles, especially Batman Inc. and Earth 2. Although I took a look at some lettered preview pages for the latter, and oh boy is the dialogue overwrought. I might not be able to handle that kind of writing for 20 pages. [...]

 

Go Robo Comic Pulse! April 18th 2012 Edition

This was a really good week. Out of everything I read, there were only a couple of stories that I thought were garbage. Everything else was really interesting or just flat out amazing. It’s too bad that a series like T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents is closing its run, but on the bright side most of these books are just beginning their stories. I love weeks like this.   Supergirl #8 Written by [...]

 

 
 
 

Broadcast-V: Hal Jordan, Green Care Bear

When I saw DC Nation last week I knew I just had to share this Mad tv Green Lantern Spoof. With itchy fur and curly hair, I make good friend most everywhere. I hug, I smile, I skip and share. Feel the love MY CARE BEAR STARE!

 

Go Robo Comic Pulse! April 11th 2012 Edition

DC Comics recently launched the Smallville Season 11 digital comic, and so far it’s pretty alright. The writer of the series worked on the show for years, so he has the voices and personalities of all the characters down. The art is serviceable; the characters more or less look like how they did on TV, so that’s cool. For 99 Cents a chapter, Season 11 is not a bad deal [...]

 

 
 
 

Broadcast-V: Beware The Batman!

With the body of Batman: Brave and the Bold still warm last Fall, Warner Bros’ announced plans to produce a new Batman animated series, one with a more serious tone as well as a new cast. Since then they’ve released a couple of teaser posters, and now they’ve put out a quick trailer showcasing the 3D animation style that the series will use. So far, so good. Beware The Batman [...]

Go Robo Comic Pulse! April 4th Edition

Oh man, how good was Avengers vs. X-Men #1?? The X-Men were all like, ” The world hates and fears us and it’s all sad and stuff!” And the Avengers were like “We’re Earth’s Mightiest heroes and we don’t like mutants!” Then they like, fought and stuff. It was riveting, with deep layers full of subtext and metaphor and whatever. Anyway, here’s what else I read this past week.   [...]

 

Video Game Review: Devil Survivor 2

Similar to the release of Persona 2 and 3 on the PS2 and after the release of the PS3, Atlus has decided to release Devil Survivor 2 for the Nintendo DS rather than for the 3DS. Before I go on, let me make it clear that the original Devil Survivor is one of my favorite games of all time. I can’t believe I went through that game so many times. [...]

 

Geekly Recharge: The Return of Toonami (For One Night Only)

On April Fools Day, Cartoon Network dropped a nostalgia bomb on me and millions of other twenty and thirty somethings, by bringing back the Toonami Block for one night. For people like me, Toonami was a gateway into an entire world of animation that was previously unknown.  When that gate was closed off a few years ago, it was pretty sad, but by that point my infatuation with anime had [...]

 

Go Robo Comic Pulse! March 28th Edition

As much as I liked this week’s comics,  I found a few of them to be kind of completely racist.  In at least three books, there was a person of color (black  to be specific) killing people or otherwise made to look like a villain in some way.  Other People of color were relegated to victim status, if they were in a comic at all (Scalped being a noted exception) [...]
