Activision Pulls the Plug on King’s Quest Revival
In a swift move of pure dickery, Activision has pulled out the old cease and desist on The Silver Lining, better known as the fan sequel King’s Quest 9. The previous owner of the Sierra IP, Vivendi, tried to shut down production of the game back in 2005, but negotiated down to a non-commercial license […]
Super Meat Boy NOT Getting a PS3 Release
In under 140 characters, Team Meat from the highly anticipated and recently delayed Super Meat Boy crushed any hopes of seeing the game on the black box. Dear All of the Internet: There will NOT be a PS3 version of Super Meat Boy. This comes as a huge blow, as the game had been delayed […]

Jonathan Knight is a Pretty Cool Guy
As an aspiring game developer and advocate of “quality over quantity” when it comes to new game IPs, I must applaud Jonathan Knight’s response in a recent interview with Industry Gamers. As you probably read in Xopher Reed’s earlier article, Jonathan Knight , when asked if he would be interested in making a sequel to […]

In a time where iPad jokes rarely stretch outside the “sanitary pad” realm, Pee-Wee Herman (Paul Reubens) and the Playhouse crew bring us some original humor, making their relevance known again.

Starting back in 2008 as a twinkle in a little Utah boy’s eye, MediaWhoreNetwork has grown a lot in just under a year and a half, making appearances at such big name events as the Penny Arcade Expo and the Consumer Electronics Show. This success has not been a solo effort; a dedicated staff of […]
Spider-Man 4 No More; Reboot Inevitable
Unexpectedly, Sony Pictures announced today that they are scrapping plans for the fourth entry in the popular Spider-Man series, citing scripting and scheduling concerns with director Sam Raimi.

Probably one of the most anticipated independent games in recent years, Terry Cavanagh’s VVVVVV has finally been released to the public. $15 dollars gets you both the Windows and Mac versions of the masochistic yet charming game (Linux version delayed due to some last minute issues, but coming soon). Those still on the fence can […]
Heavy Rain Coming Sooner Than You’d Think
It seems like ages ago when Quantum Dream, the development team responsible for 2005’s fun but frustrating interactive adventure Indigo Prophecy, dazzled us with beautiful too-good-to-be-true screenshots of their next project Heavy Rain for the then upcoming Playstation 3. After nearly four years of the occasional screenshot, it looked like this game was never coming out. […]
25 Days of Christmas (Carol): Day 25
Finally the day has come for adaptation 25, and I chose to make this one extra special. Before this experiment, I had seen maybe a total of 4 film adaptation of A Christmas Carol, and The Muppet Christmas Carol was always one I kept coming back to. The blend of Michael Caine and an assortment […]
25 Days of Christmas (Carol): Day 24
It’s Christmas Eve, time for adaptation 24, and I hit a snag. I already had plans for the last two days of this experiment (tune in tomorrow to see which version I watch on Christmas!), and today was supposed to be when I went to the theater and saw the newest adaptation of A Christmas […]
25 Days of Christmas (Carol): Day 23
Adaptation 23 is either something you love or you hate, the Rankin/Bass Productions TV movie The Stingiest Man in Town. If you know what you’re getting yourself into, it can be a very entertaining movie with great musical numbers, otherwise you may just see them as dicking around the story. The unique Rankin/Bass animation style […]
25 Days of Christmas (Carol): Day 22
Adaptation 22 is 1988’s comedic take on the Dickens story, Scrooged, starring Bill Murray. Scrooged can best be described as a movie within a movie, as Murray plays a self centered television executive named Frank Cross working on a live TV version of the story while he himself is being visited by three spirits. This […]
