Borderlands 2 Review: It’s Pretty Awesome! Maybe.
The final version is probably fantastic.
I’ve played Borderlands 2 and now I’m going to review it. There are some caveats: it wasn’t the final version, and since I’m not under any embargo, I can get away with posting my opinion on the game without retribution. We at FleshEatingZipper work super hard to get early review copies so that you can enjoy an early opinion without having to look at a newspaper or magazine or even other web sites. Well, we let you down with Borderlands 2 and we want to make up for it in the best way possible.

“Lincoln” Trailer A Boring Mess
“Lincoln” accurate in all the wrong places? Ah, just shoot me.
I love watching historic films – especially when they’re accurate. When I heard that Daniel Day-Lewis was going to be playing the 16th President of the United States of America in an epic biopic, I was thrilled. After watching the new trailer, I wish someone had shot me in the back of the head.

Google / Youtube And Copyright Claims – Could You POSSIBLY Fail Harder?
Looks like the Spanish Inquisition is in town.
I was bouncing around on Facebook today when I saw a post by my favorite classical pianist and subject of much musical lust, Valentina Lisitsa. Yes, I listen to classical music, yes I love it. Chopin’s nocturnes make my heart run through a field of daisies and if you have anything to say about it, I’ll slap you in the forehead with a tack-hammer.
Valentina mentioned that she has been hit with a copyright claim from Sony Music Entertainment regarding a recording she made, playing a piece by Mozart.
WHAT?!
Warning – Harsh language ahead.

Are We Excited About The Wii U, Yet?
I’m usually head-over-feet excited for marketing stuff like this. But, eh, nah, not this time.
Sometime late last night, I had the opportunity to report on Nintendo’s Japan-facing conference regarding the Wii U’s price and availability in that region. An announcement like that is usually the last piece of major PR a company can send out prior to a console’s launch. Instead, I went to sleep. Hours after the American version of the conference had ended, I woke up, read the facts, and then dove back into bed. So now, even more hours later, I’m finally writing this and am struggling to come to a conclusion about Nintendo’s newest console: a long-in-coming reaction to falling Wii sales.

iPhone 5 is Official & Why I Wont Be Buying It
Well, it’s taller.
Today I sat and watched the entire Apple press conference from my desk wanting more. Yes, hooray, the iPhone 5 is coming and there are some updates. My issue is there was nothing groundbreaking. Before I go on lets get the details out there. The new iPhone, the iPhone 5 will be out on September 21st. Boasting a 4″ screen, A6 processor, 8 megapixel camera, Lightning connector, redesigned ear phones and iOS 6, it was my gadget of the year. That is until closer to today when rumors showed it off.

Jiro Dreams Of Sushi – An Awe Inspiring Documentary
So hungry…So very hungry…
I’ve been aware of the independent documentary “Jiro Dreams of Sushi” for quite some time now and I remember thinking upon first hearing of it “Wow…that looks pretty good”. Other things popped up and life went about its business and I forgot about the film, only thinking of it when I would go pick up sushi at one of the many Japanese restaurants nearby but I was always busy with other things.
Well, I finally saw it.

Theme Hospital, The Article About
The future of healthcare is CHAINSAWS!!!
Theme Hospital was one of the best games I never got to play during the PC’s great strategy renaissance in the mid-nineties. When that special issue of PC Gamer landed, I played the limited demo of this game over and over. Then I never bought it. And it disappeared. And then it really disappeared, because like many of those strategy games, even the late ones, they simply vanished off the face of the planet as soon as they got a Value Software label. Well, now fifteen years later, GOG has provided the world with yet another gem that had been previously been lost to Abandonia, the land where PC games go to die. Last year, they brought us Bullfrog’s Dungeon Keeper and now I finally got to experience Theme Hospital game as it was intended. But has this design held up? Can this game work all these years later? Let’s find out.
