Last Mortal #1 – Advanced Review

Two-time
loser and petty thief, racked with the death of his only friend, Brian,
Alec contemplates suicide in an abandoned warehouse
along the pier in Philadelphia. He reflects in his loss as tears run
down his
face and a pistol tightens in his hand. As his thoughts race back to
yesterday,
he puts the gun under his chin and pulls the trigger.

Yesterday, after running the gambit of small-time hustling
to get some money for food (hot dogs), he meets up with Brian on the Philadelphia
pier where he lives. Alec finds his friend fresh off an ass beating that he received
from his fixer for skimming off the top. So to make things right, Brian tells
Alec that they have to kill a local politician by the name of Callahan. Alec is
against the idea but Brian tells him that he’s backed into a corner and he has
no choice. As a further guilt trip to
Alec, Brian reminds him that he has shot a man before. Reluctantly, Alec agrees
to help his friend out.

Well Finally! 3DS Gets System Update

The 3DS has been out for over a month, and all this time we’ve been promised a system update that will provide users with a web browser and access to the Nintendo eShop- Things that should have been available right out of the box.  Sure, Nintendo did cough up a small update which game players some minor enhancements, along with a nifty 3D music video by Okay Go, but that’s no substitute for being able to read Player Affinity from any place with a Wi-Fi connection.

B.P.R.D. – The Dead Remembered #1 – Review

In this flash back tale we’re introduced to a young Elizabeth that’s taken out into the field for the first time. They’re investigating a haunting from a dead “suspected witch” that’s tormenting a priest. It takes some strong convincing from Hellboy before the Professor will agree to take her and even then he has to pull at his heart strings to get him to take her. Elizabeth is actually less than thrilled to go on the trip and even less thrilled that she’s being taken to see a priest.

Detective Comics #875 – Review

The smartest thing DC’s done since Greg Rucka left Detective Comics was putting Scott Snyder on the book. Snyder is of course the shiny new thing at DC with his hit series American Vampire from Vertigo. His run on Detective has been very interesting as it continues to focus onDick Grayson or “Gotham’s Batman” and number one super cop Jim Gordon.

Gabe Newell Discusses “Singleplayer Plus”

Valve is taking it’s sweet time creating Half-Life 2: Episode 3, so fans are eager for any hints at all aboutwhen it will come out, and what sort of experience it will impart. So when Gabe Newell, while discussing Portal 2, mentioned that Portal 2 would “probably” be the last isolate singleplayer experience, Half Life fans became jumpy, since Half-Life is very story driven. When asked to clarify this statement, Newell responded:

The Darkness 2 Teaser Trailer

So Nolan
North is apparently voicing Jackie in the sequel – that’s about all you can take
from this short trailer. Going by the voiceover, it seems Jackie has kept The
Darkness away since the first game and The Darkness isn’t too happy about it.
Hopefully
this means that the game will cover Jackie battling to control The
Darkness and the obvious problems that it’s going to cause, but we’ll have
to wait and see for any story details.
