Kiefer Sutherland Talks ’24’ Movie, Says Its Direct Continuation.
I wasn’t even aware that the 24 movie was officially happening. Like, I thought of it as one of those bandied about ideas that would never gain traction. I’m wrong! It’s happening, and Kiefer Sutherland opened up about some of the movie specifics.

Video: Freddie Prinze Jr. Voicing ‘Mass Effect 3’ Character. Guess Who I’m Not Saving.
Ever since James Vega was revealed, he’s looked like a throwaway Bros of War character. Now it turns out that he’s being voiced by Freddie Prinze Jr, and I officially don’t care if I get one of my squadmates out of of the Galactic Tussle alive. Snarky, right?
Hit the jump for some Vega/Prinze Jr. action.
Matt Fraction To Debut New Creator Owned Title? Gods Please Be True.
Spending Friday evening on Twitter like a true Beast of Dorkey and I came across this Matt Fraction tweet. I’m hoping he’s serious, since Casanova makes my tits hard like nobody’s business. Who knows though? Dude is generally hilarious and off-the-cuff. Could be a total feint. Fraction is one of my favorite writers, and if I got to see him open up that unique mind of his across another self-generated universe in addition to Casa it would be too good to be true.
Friday Brew Review: Porter Square Porter
When people think of Boston’s beer, they probably think of Sam Adams. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, considering that the Boston Beer Company not only helped usher in the wonderful epoch of craft brewing in which now find ourselves but also continue to produce quality products. What would be a shame is if one were to think that Sam Adams is the only worthwhile suds-soda brewed in Greater Boston.
`Cause the fact of the matter – it ain’t.
Sure, if you’ve ever visited Lord Bergeron‘s domicile, you’ve probably stumbled across Boston Beer Works or Harpoon. While these brewers are good folk, and deserving of your palate’s attention, they’re essentially part of the same crew that John Adams’ cousin rolls with. But if you’re willing to look beyond even these supporting players, you might just find another star-to-be in the cast of Boston’s Brewahs!
And that’s exactly what I’ve done.
Tonight, I’m sipping on Porter Square Porter from the up-and-coming Slumbrew.
Press Start!: The Super FX Chip Was Where The Real Shit Went Down!
If there’s one thing I was certain about when I was a young kid gaming it up back in the day it was this: that advertisers were obviously pretty smart people who had my best intentions in mind. They saw me, they knew it. I had these guys and gals over at Marketing Place 101 to thank for my awareness of all the latest and greatest in the 16-bit era. It was a pretty simple relationship. Through various devices they’d transmit the objects I absolutely needed to have. Commercials with lots of yelling? Fuck yeah! Magazine advertisements with convincing arguments. Why yes, Atari Jaguar. Yes. 16 x 4 does indeed equal 64. You win, you win the round. I’d proceed to roll around on the floor tear-soaked and tell my parents I couldn’t possibly, at all, hope to ever, ever, be a real gamer if I wasn’t blast-processing on my Sega Genesis-CD-32X.
Weren’t they good parents?
Didn’t they understand?
‘BioShock Infinite’ To Include 1999 Mode; Sworn To Beat Your Ass.
If you let it, BioShock Infinite will solemnly swear to whup your ass. Ken Levine has revealed that the forthcoming title is going to include a more difficult “1999 Mode”, taking the gamer back to a time when us gaming folks had to walk up hills both ways to get to a fucking INK RIBBON SAVE POINT and dungeon bosses openly bare-assed farted on our tits just because they could. The good old days.

Senate Postpones PIPA Vote. Everyone Dance (To Pirated Music)!
While everyone was totally Facebooking and Tweeting about SOPA in the past couple of weeks, its mutated Deliverance-esque brother bill was making its way through the Senate. However, there’s good news. A vote on the bill was postponed thanks to recent blatherings about rights and such by people and annoyances everywhere.
Video: First Footage Of A Comet Smashing Into Sun. Or Superman Powering Up.
Check it out!, solarians. I made that word up. Means you like..solars? Solar systemarians? Something like that. Anyways – whoever (whomever? fuck me here) you are – hit the jump for the first footage of a comet rocketing into the Sun. Or of Superman collecting some cellular oomph! before he goes to throw down with Metallo. I’m preferring the latter.
