BotCon 2009: Transformers RotF Q&A

Orci and Kurtzman

Orci and Kurtzman

At noon Friday, Roberto “Bob” Orci and Alex Kurtzman took the stage to great fanfare, as hungry congoers expended much-needed life fuel to heap praises upon these hardworking writers. The duo immediately declared a moratoriam on all Star Trek discussion because “this is Transformers time”. We’ll see how that turned out at bit later…

Follow us on this magical journey of parallel silicon-based evolution, mistaken identity, car aficionados, the viability of massive mechanical deities, and much more!

Lost Classics: Jagged Alliance (PC, Nintendo DS)

jagged-allianceIn light of Iraq, Katrina, and the Blackwater controversies, it may seem strange to do a feature on a game about mercenaries. However, the gameplay, backdrop, and atmosphere help this title avoid similarities to real-world events. It doesn’t hurt that this game’s strategy RPG gameplay and team management are solid as well. Although this title never gained commercial success, it achieved a healthy cult following amongst its fans. If you give this game a shot and bear through its old school graphics and interface, then it isn’t hard to see why.

Castlevania Movie “Staked”

castlevania_movieAnd there was much rejoicing.

Looks like the ideas of a live-action Castlevania movie have been saved from the horrors of bad directing this time around. Bloody Disgusting reports that the movie, originally handed to AvP and Resident Evil director Paul Anderson and more recently thrown to Stomp the Yard‘s Sylvian White, the script for the movie has been pretty much put into the category of “development hell”, halting any further progress. While not declared legally dead as of yet, the thready pulse of the story meant to be the tale of Dracula’s origins in facing the Belmont Clan has seemingly been put into a consistent catatonic state of which there seems little recovery.

Of course, this is far from where the development was taking it in the first place, so really this change of course simply keeps the corpse of the screenplay from being utterly raped, and instead will more than likely pass into blissful death quietly.



Ejector: Best Transformer Ever?

ejector1ejector2

I don’t usually like to give credit to Chinese sites like The Arker for its photos of stolen toys, but pictures of a figure like this won’t reach official channels for several months, and I can’t wait that long to say this: Ejector is the most inspired and ridiculous Transformer in years. I’m glad that the ideas that began with Real Gear and peaked with Dispensor are not gone.



$20 Game of the Week: Bleach – Dark Souls (Nintendo DS)

bleachThis is the follow up to Sega/Treasure’s Bleach: The Blade of Fate which was released in the U.S. in 2007. Based on the popular anime of the same name, Bleach: Dark Souls provides more fighting action featuring your favorite characters from the series. One would look at this and call it Bleach: The Blade of Fate Championship edition, and they wouldn’t be completely wrong, as Dark Souls borrows a lot of its content from Blade of Fate. However, there is a huge amount of new content in the game, and some gameplay refinements have been made, making this game stand out from its predecessor.

Fake Green Lantern Trailer


Yes its fake. This fan project is beyond what most with some editing software are capable of. Doesn’t give much of a story indication outside of Nathan Fillion taking on the role of Hal Jordan and Hugo Weaving as Sinestro, and if you’re a geek that should be fine by you.

A real Green Lantern movie is being planned now for release summer 2011.
