Just Cause 3 is going to be a game I miss on launch. ‘Cause Fallout4andRiseofTheTombRaider for days. But if this mission trailer is any indication, it’s going to be a goddamn blast whenever I pick it up.

‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ Extended Trailer: Cap Is Sort Of Worthy

Sort of worthy.

Last week Hydra leaked the Avengers: Age of Ultron trailer that was supposed to shown during this week’s Agents of SHIELD. Not to be deterred by the bad guys, Marvel announced they would reveal even more footage during AoS.

Friday Brew Review – Jack’s Pumpkin Spice Ale

Brew Review 1

It’s Friday. Finally. TGI-fuckin’-F or whatever. If only it were 1989 again and I could rock the TGIF lineup, I may not have need to write this. But alas, times have changed and I can no longer rely on ABC’s transdimensional-series cameos to help kill the memories of the week.

Instead, I need a cold brew. And since I’m drinking anyways, I figure that I might as well take the opportunity to review the beverage for the six diehard, dedicated readers of OL.
