It took me over half a year to finally succumb to Nintendo’s spell and buy a Nintendo 3DS. It was a wise decision.
The Nintendo 3DS was released on March 27 of this year and is the latest in Nintendo’s long line of handheld gaming devices. This honoured tradition started back in 1989 with the Game Boy and has gone through varied iterations over the years such as the Game Boy Color in 1998, the Game Boy Advance in 2001 and the DS in 2004.

It all starts with one touch, one sneeze, one cough — and one fatality can become 30 million.
Directed by Steven Soderbergh (Traffic, Ocean’s Eleven), Contagion is a thriller charting the growth of a deadly virus called MEV-1 that spreads through indirect contact and kills within days.

The Center for Disease Control is gone, hope is elusive and zombies are still everywhere.
AMC’s zombie hit The Walking Dead returned on Oct. 16 to an ecstatic 7.3 million viewers and Season Two starts just where Season One left off. The band of survivors headed by Sheriff’s Deputy Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) is still there, although their numbers are thinned out from the final episodes of last season, hoping against hope that things can get better and they find some vestige of safety.

I just went to write a review.
Some time later I was lying on the floor in a dark room. Only black light. Above, dancers whirled neon-laced hula-hoops and fiberoptic rainbow wands. They wore tight black suits with fringy neon epaulettes.

Post-apocalyptic games seem to have reached their peak in popularity recently with games such as Fallout 3 and Borderlands. Now another post-apocalyptic shooter, Rage, enters the arena desperately trying to differentiate itself from the rest. How does it do that? Well, by doing almost nothing new at all.
Rage is the newest shooter from veteran developer id Software, known for classic games like Doom and Quake.

Politics is a dirty game. While reiterating this unfortunate truism isn’t particularly enlightening, it does make for good entertainment.
The Ides of March is another installment in a long line of political films showing that there is no such thing as an honest politician. George Clooney’s fourth film as a director, The Ides of March is fast, smart and thrilling in a way similar to Moneyball and other confident dramas.

Super Street Fighter II Turbo, in all its superlative glory, was released for Super Nintendo in 1994. I never personally owned a copy, nor did I ever follow the series into its later incarnations. Yet that game made an indelible impression on me during long nights of my childhood I spent in my cozy basement.
I don’t want to negatively characterize online gamers, nor do I want to take online gaming away from anyone. It just troubles me that the authentic multiplayer experience, between friends in close quarters, is rapidly becoming a thing of the past. Whenever I hear about the latest online multiplayer sensation, I can’t help but think back to my evenings with Street Fighter II and feel that something has been lost between then and now.
