Spoiler free!   By default, I’m the type of viewer who doesn’t like actor changes.  To this day, the only flaw that was apparent from watching ‘The Dark Knight’ is that Katie Holmes didn’t return to reprise her role as Rachel Dawes.  It is by no means based on her acting chops vs. Maggie Gyllenhaal.  It’s more to do with visual consistency established from Nolan’s original ‘Batman Begins’.  Tonight, Starz officially kicks off their new season of Spartacus, which if you were following GameFob, we posted yesterday that you view the first episode, ‘Fugitivus’, on the Starz.com website.  Unfortunately, my visual consistency issue will come in to play...

      She walks in the room with her arms crossed glaring at you. You squint through your eyelids, barely able to see since the light was turned on. After 10 hours straight of your favorite game you’re just about ready for bed. That’s when she starts. “How can you play for so long?” and “its a just a game you’re wasting so much time you could spend doing productive things.” You try to reason, give what you consider to be a reasonable explanation. “This is what I love to do with my time.” She responds just as you knew she would. “Ugh! Why don’t you just GROW UP?!” She...

    Resident Evil: Revelaitons! Wait what? Someone in Capcom’s design department made a little mistake, and here’s the picture to prove it.     A Capcom representative gave  this statement: “It has come to our attention that there was a misspelling on the Resident Evil Revelations packaging. We apologize for the mistake, which will be corrected for subsequent productions of the game. We are working on a solution to provide affected customers with the correct packaging. Please visit Capcom-Unity for updates.” Hopefully the mistake will be corrected in future shipments of the game. If you’ve already got a copy of the misprint, hold onto it. It’s always going...

    Geoff Johns, DC co-publisher spoke with Newsarama about “The Curse of Shazam!”, a new monthly 10 page back-up story which will appear in Justice League. Johns has revealed some aspirations of one day producing a Shazam movie. Below is a brief excerpt from the interview:   You’ve been working on producing and co-writing a Shazam movie. Is this comic book story at all related to the work you’ve done on the film? Not really. It’s got some elements that I pitched in there, and some of the same characters, obviously, because the characters cross over. Tonally, it’s probably pretty close. We haven’t heard much about the film...

    Madden NFL 2013 Wishlist   Here we go again. One more EA sports football game done another one on the horizon. Madden usually starts a viral campaign around superbowl time, but EA has been quiet this year. Why? Could it be the upheaval in the Madden staff with the departure of long-time development veterans like Ian Cummings, Phil Frazier, and other personnel? Could it be with the addition of Kolbe Launchbaugh to the team? Regardless of any reason why EA has yet to produce some Madden 13 news/updates, here is what I’d love to see in the next installment of the game.   General A better menu system....

I’M JUST SAYING In between my different articles I will be giving a variety of posts about my thoughts on various subjects in regards to our nerd world. The first one being a message I feel I must give to my fellow geeks. You need to calm down on the comic book movies. Just because a movie starring your favorite comic book hero didn’t follow the comic book to the letter, doesn’t make it that bad. Now I’m not talking to you good people that feel a comic book movie should follow the comics in regards to the character’s general personality, basic background, and abilities… No no… I’m cool...

        Here’s another tease of Final Fantasy XIII-2 from the people over at Square Enix. Here’s a new trailer for the game shows off just a few of its diversions and activities.     Seems like Final Fantasy XIII-2 will be geared towards new and inexperienced gamers. The same new and inexperienced gamers that will have to sit through and endure some pretty long cutscenes.    

    Do you love Netflix? Are you in a facebook “it’s complicated” kind of relationship with Netflix? I know I am, so don’t act like you’re not. Way back when Netflix declared that the company would be separating its streaming video and physical disc rental services, it was stated around the internet that the newly-formed company Qwikster would include the option to rent video games. According to The Verge, Netflix CEO Reed Hastings informed investors, for unknown reasons, that the company is no longer going to enter the game rental business. For now, Gamefly will remain the top source for video game rentals and will not be effected...

      While Resident Evil 6 seems to the be gaming buzz these days for the home consoles, Capcom is also releasing a completely separate game in the franchise for Nintendo’s 3DS handheld – Resident Evil Revelations.  Take a quick look at the recently released updated trailer.   So you’re probably wondering two things: (1) Who in the blue hell is Iwata?; and (2) what is ‘Iwata Asks’? Off the top of my Nintendo ‘fanboy’ head, Iwata is the CEO of Nintendo Corporations Limited (NCL).  He’s a former game developer with HAL Laboratories (mainly Kirby games) turned corporate guru.  He’s known for taking Nintendo from its third place...

    Sony’s PlayStation exclusive baseball game has been on the success train for years now, but that desire for success isn’t stopping the developers from pushing the boundaries of digital baseball a step further. Below is the MLB 12 The Show reveal trailer that shows off  several new features to the latest entry in the series, including full PlayStation Move controls, another layer of polish on the already impressive presentation that Sony dubs “TruBroadcast,” a stronger focus on realism, a revamped Home Run Derby, and a new card based mode that looks to take some cues from EA’s popular Ultimate Team mode that appears in Madden, NHL, and...

        I enjoyed the Nickelodeon animated TV show, Rugrats as a child. I do recall a few of my classmates back in elementary school trying to make Rugrats a “in crowd” only thing. I can honestly say I have never thought of Rugrats being a live action film, but to be an R rated film? Now that’s genius. Thanks to our friends over at Funny or Die, here we have a hilarious red-band trailer for a fake R-rated film that looks disturbing as hell. Enjoy the madness. “Your childhood memories will be raped.”    

    This devilishly delightful piece of art comes from DeviantArt artist blitzcadet, and it’s called Princess Leia Centerfold. Star Wars meets Playboy. Enjoy!
