Gaming This Week: Week of 4/17/2011

Now with enough taters to make Slingblade blush!  

LRE #21: Prince of Persia

Little Red Envelope In my mailbox this week: Prince of Persia Release Year: 2010 Staring: Jake Gyllenhaal, Gemma Arterton, Ben Kingsley Prince of Persia is a long running video game series.  In 2010, Disney adapted it into a feature length film. Did they do a better job than other video game adaptations?  

ADEQUATELY-SIZED PODCAST: Episode 7, “Surf Nazis Fashion Wave”

This week on Adequately-Sized Podcast we review movies that cover tax evasion, cannibalism and boats that can decapitate Surf Nazis!  

RLR #38 – I Have a Black Belt in Shaq-Fu

So here we are, another Monday morning, another new episode or The Red-Light Roundtable for you to enjoy during your workday. This is perhaps one of the strongest episodes we’ve had especially when we come back from our commercial break and proceed to rip into Jermaine for 40 minutes. About what you may ask? You’ll have to listen to find out.  

Teaser – RLR #38

The usual surly cast of characters will be recording episode 38 of the Red-Light Roundtable this evening, and it seems like we’ll have a full panel plus two, and PLENTY of topics to talk about…get ready, because I smell a megasode.  

One Step Closer to Robots Only in Transformers 3

If you haven’t heard through the magic of the internet, the co-star of the first two Michael Bay Transformers movies, Megan Fox, has been dropped from the cast of the third movie that’s currently being worked on.  

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands – Opening Cinematic

It seems that the imminent release of the new Prince of Persia game is upon us. Normally I don’t get all sorts of excited about games to the point where I post video of just the opening CG, but after watching this clip, I just had to share it with you all. That…and it’s a slow news day (for a Saturday).  

RLR #35 – A Solo Cup Filled With Gak

Can it be? Do we really have yet another weekly update to the Red-Light Roundtable? YES, WE DO! In fact, we have perhaps one of the best episodes to date with this one. Join us, won’t you?  

New Prince of Persia: Sands of Time trailer

Jake Gyllenhaal and his magical abs make another trailer appearance here. This trailer is more plot oriented than the last, but really, are we going into this movie to watch for the plot? Next question is: Will this become a series? Expect the movie to hit theaters on May 28th, just 3 weeks after Iron Man 2.  

Prince of Persia – Trailer

In case you missed it yesterday during the Supers Bowl, here’s the Prince of Persia trailer that stars that dreamy Jake Gyllenhaal as the lead. I don’t have any expectations for this movie, but as far as video game movies are concerned, you could always do worse…always remember Super Mario Bros. The Movie.  

Batman: Arkham Asylum = Prince of Gotham?

Well maybe not to the extent that my title implies, but it’s being reported that when you make a serious fuck-up in the game you’ll have the ability to do a quick save to avoid the needless dying…after all, he is Batman. This may not be the same as the prevalent ‘Elika bacon saving’ in Prince of Persia, but is eerily reminiscent of it..just this time around you use or batarang or something...
