Movie Review - Battle: Los Angeles (2011)

The US Marines mobilize to halt an alien invasion landing off the coast of Santa Monica. One of many many other alien invasion flicks, this one attempts to stand out by applying realism more cannily than the others.

In 2018 John Conner leads the Human Resistance against the machines. Seeing signs that Skynet is building the kind of Terminators he and his mother have faced in the past,  he realizes that he must get to his father, Kyle Reese, before the machines do.
A rescue mission into the heart of DataDyne corporate offices begins to unravel a conspiracy that spans the stars. You, Joanna Dark, are the only one who can get to the bottom of it, before it's too late!

The spiritual successor to the most successful game ever, Goldeneye 64, Perfect Dark is truly the sequel to the legend; more polished, more options than ever before, and just as much fun as the original.

Video Game Review - Halo 3

Bungie concludes the main Halo storyline in this installment of the legendary fps series.

Retro Game Review - Half-Life (PC)

Deep in the heart of the sprawling Black Mesa Research Facility, a top secret experiment on anomalous materials is about to have unexpected effects that would prove devastating for all of humanity. You are Gordon Freeman, the MIT educated scientist at the heart of it all, and you must survive the disaster at Black Mesa, repel the subsequent alien invasion it causes, and thwart the misguided efforts of the army to stop you.
In these tough economic times, there's no better way to game than to buy used games, so I've decided to offer the occasional review of a game I have in my collection which has been out for a while, the oldest of which dates back to the days of the NES. I call these installments "Retro Game Review", because even the secondhand shopper can benefit from being informed.
In an increasingly common marketing ploy these days, a direct-to-DVD animated prequel is released to boost a franchise. The difference here is that the franchise in question is a first debut video game.
The Cosmos’ Environmental Solution Spells Doom For The Human Race

Vera Nazarian, publisher of the small press imprint Norilana books, was in trouble. Thanks to bills that she incurred while fighting a fraudulent lawsuit, she'd been forced into a sub-prime loan. Then, when her mother was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, the bills only got bigger.

The trouble just kept coming when the sewer lines backed up into her home. Now, with Christmas just weeks away, the bank was threatening to foreclose, putting her and her ailing mother out of the street.

But thanks to her many friends – writers and fans in the Science Fiction community, there was hope.
