Video: Rian Johnson’s ‘LOOPER’ redone as 8 Bit video game. Time travel, amirite.

Looper hasn’t even come out yet (unfortunately), and it has already received a retrofitting. Ain’t nothing that says love from the geek community like taking an appreciated commodity and dipping it into an 8 bit well.

Dude gets infected with Ebola from phone he stole. Karmic counterpunch!

I always read stories like this, and I’m like, man. I need to stop licking the doorknobs at restaurants just to get my jollies. Who the hell knows what is lurking on the objects we fondle daily.

‘BLACK OPS II’ gets two ridiculous editions. Care package and Hardened. Freudian wet dream.

We can’t go a year without a new Call of Duty dropping some over-the-top wallet fucking edition, can we? Hell no. It’s about as American as it gets. November is football, turkey, and expensive killing packages.

Skyrim ‘HEARTHFIRE’ DLC drops next week, letting you get all nesting instinct.

Here’s a second batch of Skyrim DLC I won’t be buying. Until some late night when I’m drunk and wistful, proclaiming to myself that I wish I could just “live in Skyrim” because “despite the dragons, it is quite a beautiful place” and everything.

Geoff Johns and David Finch team up for new ‘JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA’ series. Moar team books! Forever!

DC is apparently becoming hip to something Marvel unfortunately figured out years ago. If you sell like thirteen Super Mega Team! books, you’ll make more money.

Omega-Level Weekend at FanExpo Toronto – The Concise Preamble Summary

There’s a story behind every line, but maybe the imagination can cook up funnier shit than the truth (this will be difficult, I assure you).  It was a pleasure to host OL in Toronto, and I’m already looking forward to the next con weekend that OL tears up.
