The Moon Goes Rainbow In Sexy Surface Study.
You may think that the Moon is some boring ass rock lingering above us. Threatening to smash us down like innocent whelps as though we were living in Majora’s Mask. You’d be wrong! There’s a lot of shenanigans populating the Moon’s surface. This colorized NASA image shows the differences in surface composition.
Press Start!: Super Mario and Christians Forget Mushrooms, Hit The LSD.
I am a sick man. I am a diseased man. While I wish I was the Man from Dostoyevsky’s Underground, I’m just a nerd. Afflicted with phlegm and nausea and a quivering of the bowels. So in all honesty, my friends, I’m pounding out this column quicker than Billy Batson can shazam the fuck outta Dodge. Gray and green and brown matter is flying all over my keyboard. I need the dull glow of Theraflu and the prone position.
Press Start!. Column that spouts off on top five things that caught my attention in gaming this week.
HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PT. 2, YA’LL!
Just over the past two months or so, I caught up with all the Harry Potter films. They’re pretty fun, the mythology is interesting, and I can see how it has a deep cult following. Plus, the Hogwart’s ride at Universal Studios is the most insane attraction I’ve ever experienced. The whole shebang came to an end last night with the eighth and final film in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt.2. It’s a solid and touching end to a series that started a decade ago with the innocence of The Sorcerer’s Stone. Judging by the amount of sniffling coming from cosplay attendees in my theater last night, I’d say it satisfied the diehards as well as the laymen.

Sony’s Tim Schaaff Thought The PSN Hack Was A “Great Experience”. Oh Bro.
The PSN hack was a kidney punch combo’d into a nuts stomp, and gave Sony something of a drooping around the world. We all stared. Some aghast. Some amused. Some both. It had to totally suck for everyone involved over at Sony, right? Naw, bro! Sony’s network entertainment president Tim Schaaff was having the time of his life.
AJ Hateley Makes Book Covers Out of Classic Video Games. Lit/Gamer Swoon!
AJ Hateley has taken on the impressive project of turning classic video games into book covers. They’re not your run of the mill covers, rather they reflect the sort of old, worn books that makes a literature nerd like me weep. They’re absolutely gorgeous. Double-daps to including Camus on the Katamari cover. Fantastic!

Diablo Cody Rewriting ‘Evil Dead’ Remake. Well There Goes That.
I don’t like Diablo Cody. I don’t like remakes. So while I wasn’t excited for a remake of Evil Dead, now that it’s been announced that she’s rewriting it any sort of expectations I had for it just went up in flames. Flames powered by trite, forced dialogue and indie songs.
