McDonald’s is the most popular fastfood burger restaurant in all countries of the world… except in the country where I live. Here, in the Philippines, the most popular place that sells burgers is a place called Jollibee. Yes, you can make fun of the fact that the restaurant has a giant bee for a mascot.…
Before I start off, I’m going to give myself a self-imposed “Teen” rating on this post because of violent and suggestive imagery and strong language. It’ll make sense as you read on. I’m a pretty easygoing guy. But if there’s one thing that irks me is when news outlets, lawyers and, well, the general public…
After the abomination that was X-Men Origins: Wolverine, I actually was pretty surprised that they were having another go around with the character. The first Wolverine film had very little respect for the history of the character and Marvel Universe in general. So, I came in The Wolverine very cautiously. I mean, if they did…
Hiya! So, last time I wrote about the Angry Video Game Nerd, one of those guys who became popular because of posting things on YouTube. Well, the reason why I started to watch his videos is because I looooooove watching stuff on YouTube. Who doesn’t… besides people who don’t have computers, I mean. I think…
Hollywood has gotten better in making live action films of geek media. Well, for superheroes anyway. Marvel’s series of movies, which culminated with The Avengers was awesome. And Warner Bros. Man of Steel was a good reboot for a new Superman series. But there’s a lot of things they need to work on. American movie…
This year, we are finally starting up the 8th generation console wars. Nintendo started it with the release of the Wii U. Sony and Microsoft are joining the war later this year with the Playstation 4 and Xbox One, respectively. For some gamers, they think it was about time and the 7th generation should have…
So far, Kick-Ass 2 looks pretty good and may actually surpass the first movie with kick-assery (that’s a word, right?). The new trailer shows Hit Girl training Kick-Ass regarding how to deal with guns as well as Christopher Mintz-Plasse’s character assembling his (stereotyped) gang of super-villians Here’s the trailer… which is filled with profanity and…
I talked about one of my favorite YouTube programs, The Angry Video Game Nerd, last week. I realized that, while I do have a fun time watching the profanity filled rants of the Nerd, I may be missing some of the humor. Most, if not all, of the games he reviews are older consoles. Actually,…
It’s hard to deny the legacy of the Resident Evil. Sure, there was Alone in the Dark and even the first Clock Tower. But horror games weren’t popular and not on anyone’s radar. Then the first Resident Evil was released on the original Playstation and that all changed. It even coined a new type of genre:…
The Evolution 2013 (EVO 2K13 for short) fighting game tournament happened over the weekend. And, honestly, this was probably one of the best tournaments so far. For those who have no idea what I’m talking about, EVO is a gaming tournament that exclusively features fighting games. While there are other smaller tournaments out there, EVO…
