A League of Legends cinematic: A New Dawn
While I’m no fan of PvP I’ll admit that League of Legends is so popular it has me curious. It seems to produce great cosplay as easily as could be. It’s also fair to credit League of Legends with a great combat cinematic. There’s drama in this action scene. What’s going on? Who’s going to […]
Impressive Assassin’s Creed Unity parkour in Paris
I know. I know. Dressing up in assassin’s robes and showing off a little parkour skills is not new to the internet. This team takes the parkour stunts to a whole new level. If you’ve seen the trailer for Assassin’s Creed Unity you’ll recognise the arrival of the four assassins. You’ll also recognise the wrist […]
SJ Games promote new Munchkin messenger bag
I had no idea transporting card games was so dangerous! I totally need a Munchkin Messenger Bag right now! The branded messenger bag is currently priced at $74.99. It will ship internationally but isn’t available on other sites like Amazon.co.uk. It’s the first bag I’ve ever seen that actually been designed to hold game boxes. […]
Short film: Unbinilium
Shot with a Canon 550d (with infrared modification) and a Canon 5D Mk 11, Unbinilum walks that line between a sci-fi and an overly dramatic poem. Either way, the narrator Martin Magestro walks us through the end of the world as we know it. Directed by Christian Scheck and Jonathan Albert, Unbinlium is the story […]

Official Ant-Man movie poster
It’s not been an easy ride for Ant-Man but now, at least, there’s an official movie poster. There’s Michael Douglas, Paul Rudd and an ant steed. Look at that ant! Also; there’s the Ant-Man costume which looks pretty high-tech. There’s a lot of neon. I said “official” poster … and that kinda works as it […]
Final Fantasy character designer remakes Batman
This is what Tetsuya Nomura did to the Dark Knight. Nomura’s best known for Kingdom Hearts but he’s a character design on Final Fantasy too. This remake is kind of offical to. That’s not to say that Batman will now star tto look like this but that the redesign is part of the Square Enix’s […]
Doctor Who: Commonwealth Games opening trailer
Just before the Commonwealth Games opening the BBC ran a new trailer for Doctor Who. It’s very much a re-cut of the 12th Doctor’s current introduction. The dinosaur in London is back. Mr long-eye alien is back. The Garrus (Mass Effect) alien is back. Clara’s inability to say whether the Doctor is still a good […]
Prelude to a War: A Review of The Sixth Doctor Sourcebook
There’s every possibility you’re one of the people who considers Colin Baker’s tenure as the nadir of classic Doctor Who. It might be hard to pin the problem down to one thing, but the foul temper, hideous outfit and general dislikability of the Sixth Doctor’s personality didn’t help. After just two short seasons, Colin Baker […]
