Okay, we’ve hit the fifth episode of this fourth season. I’m liking where things are going, even if they make me mad (man!) or uncomfortable. Let’s take a look at some of the more striking developments in The Chrysanthemum and the Sword…
James Stokoe is the internet hotness today, and with good reason. The artist and writer behind Orc Stain as well as Wonton Soup apparently was working on this son of a bitch as a warm-up exercise every day.
If you do warmup inks every day, you will eventually draw 4 square feet of GALACTUS!” tweeted Orc Stain writer/artist James Stokoe today, linking to the above picture of the Devourer of Worlds as proof. (Click to see it at full, mind-boggling size.) Jiminy Christmas — if that’s what he does while warming up, what does he do when he really gets going?
Friggin’ gorgeous. Behold the sublime terror that Galactus brings to all of those unlucky enough to cross his path. Hit the jump for the entire drawing, which is absolutely fucking awesome.
The first half an hour of Taken was some of the worst shit I’ve ever watched. Sort of in a good way. However. A big however. What followed it was some of the most ridiculous, over-the-top, awesome, non-sensical shit I’ve ever seen. Loved it. Are you with me? Yeah! Then how would you like Taken In Space! Well, it’s coming. Sort of.
Luc Besson, writer/producer of Taken, is putting Maggie Grace back in danger — but this time she’s in a SPACE PRISON! It’s called Lockout. We’re in, as long as Lockout has as many throat punches as Taken did.
Deadline is reporting that Maggie Grace has signed on to play the role of our future president’s daughter. But wait, there’s a twist, featuring Guy Pearce:
Guy Pearce is attached to play a man wrongly convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage against the U.S. He’s offered his freedom if he can rescue the president’s daughter from an outer space prison taken over by violent inmates.
How fucking amazing is that premise? I’m sold man. Sold. Here’s hoping that Maggie Grace plays a character that actually warrants saving this time around. I mean, jesus christ! In Taken she was just some petulant little bitch, who betrayed her obviously awesome Dad and ran headlong into danger. He should have rescued her ass and then grounded her for fucking life.
Andy Williams, guitarist for Every Time I Die, pioneering a new style.
Banksy rocked out in Detroit recently. Apparently he hit up the abandoned Packard auto plant, and in a great twist of irony, the work was dug up and brought to a local gallery. Aversion to subversion! To something.
Oh hey, check it out! It’s the PlayStation Move bundle! Well, let’s see what it has. Hm. A lame waggle-remote thing. That still can’t provide me with a masturbation simulation. And a sports game! Archery and shit! Why, this sounds like the same shit that was packaged four years ago! Nintendo Wii, and Wii Sports.
OMFG. If this was bizarro world, I’d be totally stoked right now.
Get it?!
It’s late.
Fuck yeah! I knew that my Nintendo Zelda and Mario Player would eventually give way to a new Zelda game for me to play.

NIntendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto demonstrated the game, showing a control scheme using the Wiimote and Nunchuk as Link’s sword and shield.
The game takes advantage of Nintendo’s Wii MotionPlus Wii Remote add-on. Players use the A and B buttons on the Wii Remote, and the C and Z buttons on the Nunchuk. Realistic motion control action take care of the rest. So, for example, target enemies with Z, and swing at any angle to slice and dice.
When players hold Link’s sword up to the sky, players can charge it up with solar energy and then throw sun beams at enemies — hence, the game title of Skyward Sword.
In the game’s HUD, the Wii Remote appears, telling players how to use items, check the map and swing the sword. To use the slingshot, players aim the Wii Remote and tap the A button to shoot.
The game appears more realistic and in that way in the same vein as previously Wii Zelda title Twilight Princess; however, the game is lighter and more vibrant.
To use the in-game bombs, tap the B button and raise the Wii Remote to throw.
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is slated for a 2011 release.
Hell to the fucking yes, yo. I am so sold. Having just finished Super Mario Galaxy 2, I was wondering how many months would it be until I actually booted up my Wii again. Apparently in 2011, for Zelda. And I’m cool with that.
This is all you need to know about Bulletstorm. You shoot the fucking shit out of shit. You swear a lot. There’s fucking hilarious (intentionally) cheesy action movie lines like “I predict an imminent detonation…”, ” I predict an imminent getting the fuck out of here!” and “Last train out of explosion town!” You shoot more dudes. You rack up insane arcadey combos. You have fucking sweet fucking weapons. You shoot more shit. I think the main character is voiced by Spike Spiegel’s voice actor. Who also did 7-Eleven ads, which is double fucking win. Hit the jump, watch the trailer, sorry about your genitals.
Fuck to the yeah, Fallout: New Vegas footage. This game is the number one source of my polygonal dicklust, and everytime something new leaks out about it, all my juicy parts begin to leak as well. Pad your seat in absorbent materials, put on your radioactive war face, and hit the jump to check out the video.
