Wizard And Toyfare Close Down.

Wizard and Toyfare close down.

Not more than one week after I asked the question “Is Wizard still around?” do they announce that they’re ceasing publication. Wizard magazine was “THE” go-to magazine for everything comic book related in the 1990s and early 2000s. Was this a magazine for bad ass spell casters? No, not at all. Wizard was all about comics. Wizard showcased humorous articles filled insight regarding everything in the comic book world.

Want to relive Mass Effect 1 in 15 minutes?

Bioware released Mass Effect 2 this week for the PS3. Now there are a few minor technical differences between the 360 and PS3 version, but one difference is blaring. There is currently no way to carry over your save game from ME1 to ME2 on the PS3 because ME1 does not exist on the PS3

Back To The Future: The Card Game

Back to the Future: The Card Game

With the recent release of the trilogy on Blu-Ray, I thought it would be a great time to take a look at a recently released card game based on the BTTF series from LooneyLabs. Its similar, in ways, to Munchkin and ultimately much easier to play than the setup / game instructions would lead you to believe. Most importantly, its really fun…

I originally watched this clip over at Kotaku just to see some new footage of Gears 3, but what I discovered was that this clip was actually a very well produced segment on how the video game industry operates. It also goes into detail on where the major U.S. players reside, how much games really cost to produce as well as the manpower needed to produce a “AAA” title.

Liam Neeson Returns To Star Wars!

Liam Neeson returns to Star Wars!

I remember lining up all day in Tampa to see the Phantom Menace on opening day.  The conditions at the theater were terrible: Broken AC, blurry lens, and a terrible crowd.  I ended up leaving the theater feeling a bit drained, like someone had siphoned the “force” right out of me.  The movie wasn’t what I was expecting, but there was one thing I loved about the phantom menace and that was Liam Neeson’s portrayal of Qui-Gon Jin.

Meow: Anne Hathaway Announced As Catwoman.

Meow: Anne Hathaway announced as Catwoman.

Just got wind that Anne Hathaway has indeed signed on as Catwoman. You may know Ms. Hathaway from films such as Alice in Wonderland and Get Smart. In all seriousness I think myself and the gents that run NA are pleased with this decision. We know Anne can pull off an action scene.. and we’ve already seen her in a black leather jump suit, so… what else is left to talk about?

Dragon Age 2: The Black Emporium *UPDATED*

*UPDATED* – If you pre-ordered before January 11th you gain access to a Mabari Warhound pet (not like a WOW cosmetic pet, this one kills things) as well as the key to the Black Emporium, a shop so diabolical only people crazy enough to pre-order will gain access. What is inside? Nobody knows for sure, although there are rumblings of The Mirror of Transformation which can be used to alter your appearance after the game has already begun.
