Thunder Wolves (PC) Review: Death From Above
I found the game’s winch mechanic to be entirely underwhelming. I’m also kidding.
It’s been a while since we’ve had an arcade-style helicopter shooter, hasn’t it? Casting you as a variety of choppa’-flyin’, testosterone junkies in a story that spans from Iran-Contra and Gulf War I (although having little to do with either conflict), you blast your way through 13 levels of… well, bad dudes.
‘Star Trek Into Darkness’ Finds Final Frontier In Disappointing Opening Weekend
A charming new villain, a smaller take at the box office.
I wasn’t the biggest fan of J.J. Abrams new Trek adventure, but while my colleagues may disagree, it appears that not enough people came out to prove me wrong. As it turns out, Star Trek Into Darkness, even with ticket inflation and a massive marketing campaign, opened to a notably smaller box office take ($70.6 million, Friday-Sunday) than its predecessor ($75.2 million). Paramount had been expecting a $100 million purse.
Denis Dyack’s Response Can’t Save ‘Shadow Of The Eternals’ Now
About half a year too late.
It looks like Precursor Games was made and doomed the moment they brought on Denis Dyack, the former head of troubled Canadian studio Silicon Knights. They may have enlisted his expertise, but they also inherited all of his unresolved allegations and misjudgments. Make no mistake, though: Denis is being put on-stage to clear the air not because he wanted to, otherwise he would’ve done it on a more timely basis, but because Precursor’s Shadow of the Eternals Kickstarter is doing terribly.

‘Strip Search’ Recap: Season 1, Episode 23 “A Jungle & Some Speed”
Attack of the Manic Blurs!
This episode was pretty uneven. It’s one of the best morning challenges in the house so far, but the “people” moments that bookend it seem to go on for days.
FEZ PLAY: Syndicate (Xbox 360) – Cyberpunk You Missed Out On
He’s not dead! I didn’t kill him yet!
Rob and N sit in for some cyberpunk-themed, Skrilex-powered action in Starbreeze’s Syndicate, the best game that no one played last year. When not ogling lens flares and dramatic bloom effects, Rob questions N’s love for Michael Wincott.
Star Trek: Rivals (iOS) Review: Card Game, Meet ‘Star Trek’
Deceptively easy to learn and deceptively easy to master. With your wallet.
I don’t know about you guys, but after reminding myself to back the HEX Collectible Card Game, I’ve been kinda dying for a card game to get into. I’ve never played one before – no, I couldn’t even fall in with the Magic: The Gathering nerds in high school – and I feel I’m overdue. With Star Trek on my mind, it makes sense that this new Star Trek: Rivals CCG would be a good, first stab for me. While it won’t win me over in the mid- to long-term, it’s a decent enough distraction, even when it sails into MOMCOT territory.
Amazon Passes On ‘Zombieland’ TV Series, Creator Says It Was “Hated Out Of Existence”
Let’s just pretend this never happened.
Well, that was fast. It’s been almost two months since Amazon announced it had funded a Zombieland TV series pilot and a month since it debuted. Now it’s cancelled.
Whisper Is Instagram Plus Anonymity And Now On Android
It can get pretty heavy up in Whisper.
When FMyLife.com arrived out of nowhere a few years ago, I pored over page after page of anonymous tales for hours on end. Reading candid confessions from mundane to criminal was fascinating and voyeruristic and strange and exciting. As the site got popular (which wasn’t long) the stories became too outrageous to believe so I lost interest. Whisper, an anonymous social networking app that debuted just a few months ago on iOS is now landing on Android. So, like, what is it?
