When Arkham Asylum came out, I gave a breath of fresh air to the gaming world. Solidified the notion that comic boook based video games could work and It showed that the Dark Knight could succeed in the movie world and in the game world as well. Then Arkham City came out and blew us away with it's scope and gameplay mechanics. Finally, taking the Dark Knight back to it's roots in Arkham Origins is a satisfying experience but starts to feel repetitive after a while. It's unfortunate that we have the previous 2 games in such high regard since it made this third entry a tough endeavor. Still, this is not saying that the game is bad, it is me saying that I hoped more everything that came before it and expected much more.

Having never read the Wimpy kid series of books, I was still pleasantly surprised by how much my little buddies who had read the books took to it. They laughed and thoroughly enjoyed watching their beloved book come to life. I guess that for a certain age bracket, the movie fulfills their need.
The wind blows freely down the corridor of what was once a canyon of skyscrapers populated by million-dollar businesses, employees in suits and citizens on cell phones. A constant stream of yellow taxi cabs used to flow steadily down the asphalt streets. Now, Mother Nature has reclaimed what was hers, and vegetation engulfs the massive cities in patches. A modern plague outsmarted our civilized medicine, so now our cities now lie abandoned, and what's left of the American population is forced to do whatever it takes to survive. Neighbors who were friends, now kill each other for a loaf of bread — or a rifle — whatever they can get their hands on to help them live another day. In this decimated democracy, two individuals join up to work together in order and attempt the dangerous journey across the country. Will these two be able to survive the trek — or will they be The Last of Us?Developed by Naughty Dog, the creators of the popular Uncharted franchise, comes The Last of Us. Carefully blending elements of survival and action, The Last of Us defines a genre by placing you in the heart of the adventure to outlast a modern plague on your journey across the decimated United States. Playing as Joel, a survivor, and Ellie, a teenage girl who is much braver and wiser than her age would suggest, you must work together to fend off dangerous foes, terrifying enemies and other survivors who will do anything to save themselves. Every minute of every hour of every day is a struggle to outlive the next person you encounter — do you have the mental and physical strength to make it?

Having played The fantastic Walking Dead video game last year, I was pleseantly surprised to see how this game takes on a similar subject, infused with parts of the movie "The Road" storyline and makes something that is always gorgeous to look at and at times intensely scary and franctic.

As an avid gamer for over 30 years, I have been through many iterations, variations and upgrades on same trusted formulas for gameplay that can be fun, exciting, challenging and addictive. Rarely do I get to play a game that truly opens my eyes to what this medium can be about but more than that, that video games as a whole can make us feel more than just exhilarated by the action, joy from finishing a game, etc. This is more than a game, it's an experience that many should feel.

As an avid user of Apple's ipad since the first generation came out in 2010, the Ipad air reflects the top of their best ideas in design, ease of use and overall feel of this gadget. At 1 pound it is the lightest Ipad that has come out. The Retina display brings colors to a level of stunning detail in everything you see and do. The variety and quantity of useful apps already in itunes makes this the most comfortable and enjoyable gadget to experience them. I recommend this gadget to all my friends and family members who can afford something as fun, as useful and as cool as Apple's newest best seller.

I remember watching this movie back in 98-99 and enjoying the hell out of the changes to the Cinderella mythology. Years later I watched it again and the first thing that struck me was the length of the movie. The video transfer quality is not great but the movie is well worth watching with your significant other.
The United States has a military presence in two-thirds of countries around the world. A group of 12 have had enough and initiate a terror ultimatum called the Blacklist — a deadly countdown of escalating terrorist attacks on U.S. interests. Sam Fisher is the leader of the newly formed 4th Echelon unit: a clandestine unit that answers solely to the president of the United States. Sam and his team must hunt down these terrorists by any means necessary and stop the Blacklist countdown before it reaches zero.

Ever since the original splinter cell dazzled us in the xbox console, Ubisoft has developed a very successful franchise based on a very cool character. The stealth mechanics have been tweaked and improved the overall game. We'll worth the few hours to get through the single player campaign.

It had been a few years since I caught this movie in theaters but being a John Cusack, Rachel Weisz, Gene Hackman and Dustin Hoffman fan I can honestly say they bring their A game into this story. I read the novel way way back and enjoyed the story. The movie adaptation is well done though "The Firm" this is not. We'll worth watching!
