Rattrap's dialogue has got to rank amongst the worst I've ever read. It's so painful reading it that I genuinely think I might be brought to tears. On chapter 4 of the crossover thus far and man, it really has been a complete bore. The only highlight thus far was Brainstorm finishing Perceptor's sen...

I mean, there's only so many ways you can do the same story over and over on Earth before you're just shuffling the players and the order of the events. This is what has made MTMTE so entertaining for me (still pre-Dark Cybertron). It's an adventure yarn, a road trip... Hell, a school trip, you've ...

OK, 8 months after my last post and I am NEARLY caught up, I'm currently reading the Dark Cybertron preludes of each title. MTMTE - This book... Genuinely, I think it may be one of the most entertaining comics I read, it's maintained brilliant dialogue, great action, an awesome cast, great plot poin...

Barely played games for a while now because of work, but about a month ago I found myself with time while I am in between jobs (left one, waiting for the other to start) and got reinvigorated. In the last few weeks I have completed - Hitman Absolution, Far Cry 3, Tomb Raider, The Last of Us, Metal G...

Never smoked myself, but I sell cigarettes and tobacco where I work, so my perspective is a bit removed. Frequent comment about the ecigs is that, yes, it's hard to know when to stop versus a normal cigarette that burns out. [...] most of the people who smoke a lot having OCD tendencies: they have ...

Anyone Tried These Newfangled E-Cigarettes?
Ashamedly, I am a smoker. I recently tried to quit and wasn't able to, as the saying goes "you can only quit when you want to quit" and obviously I didn't really want to. Had a recommendation to try out these e-cigarettes and so picked up a starter pack and have been using it for a few day...

The whole game-fee deal will surely kill Gamestop, Gamefly, and mom-and-pop game stores on the Xbox end. I hope Sony stays away from that model all together.0/PS3 generation, are they just getting cocky and complacent? Bad move. This is something i've been beating on about for a while now, since th...

This is the article - http://uk.ign.com/articles/2013/06/18/nintendos-used-game-policy-make-games-people-wont-sell The CEO of Take-Two came out and said something similar. If you create real experiences and games that people would continue to play, they won't trade. They both have a fair point, one ...

Man of Steel thoughts? SPOILERS
So, I went and checked out Man of Steel at the weekend, and other than a couple of cursory posts thrown in with a general movie thread I've not really seen any thoughts with it. I'll give my two cents first, and remember, as said in the title, there will be spoilers :) Positives. - Henry Cavill was ...

Marvel offer an unlimited service seen http://marvel.com/comics/unlimited I'm not sure on the quality of the service or the comics they offer, such a low price breeds suspicion, so I would assume a lot of the more recent comics (maybe from the last 12 months or so?) aren't included, but maybe someon...

I stayed away from this through fear that I might run in to spoilers of stuff I havent read yet, but issue 14 of MTMTE is next on my list, and issue of 11 for RiD.. MTMTE - Wow, I am so in love with this book, I just think it's fantastic. Roberts is doing wonderful things with the characters he is u...

I've probably analyzed Beast Machine's failures to death over the years, but the two biggest things wrong with it are that a) It followed Beast Wars, which was the high-bar for pretty much any cartoon back then. b) The characters were incidental to the plot (which was whatever nonsenical thing the ...

Currently rewatching Beast Machines now... Enjoying it an awful lot more than the first time I saw it. Yes it has some whacked out concepts, and Nightscream is just a horrible character from design through to voice, but overall it's pretty damn good. Also, I must say, the CGI quality is fantastic, y...

TDoOP and the first 3 issues of each ongoing down. TDooP - Seriously enjoyed this because of how it subverted my expectation of what would happen based on past TF experience and the title. Delivered on its name in a very different way without feeling like a cop out tactic to get publicity and sales ...
