Prince of Persia Trailer(s) are here
Published November 6, 2009 Phokal Leave a CommentTags: Mechner, movies, prince of persia, trailers
A little late, but here are some Prince of Persia trailers. As you may know, I’m a big fan of the original PoP, and the Sands of Time trilogy (xbox/ps2/gamecube games). I’m also a big fan of the original Pirates of the Caribbean. Hopefully, that means I’ll like this movie. From the trailers,… I don’t know yet. I was let down by the latest Prince of Persia title and the last Pirates movie. But maybe they can rewind a bit, and catch some of the magic they originally had. Plus, Mechner’s involved in this one. He hasn’t been around since the original Sands of Time game.
I <3 IMDB
After Bill Murray’s awesome appearance in Zombie Land, I decided to take a gander at his IMDB page. I noticed the scripting and rumor of his next big movie, Ghost Busters III (2012).

Why does Chuck Norris sleep with a nightlight? Not because Chuck Norris is afraid of the dark… but because the dark is afraid of Chuck Norris.
Chuck Norris and Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man) will be casted together in Cowboys and Aliens (2011).

What? Theres a Boondock Saints 2? Yup. Assassins Creed 2 is probably better.

In the demo watch an Old Lady. In the full version she may die.

The Graveyard is a somewhat misunderstood game. Anyone looking for something that would be fun at a party, look elsewhere. Anyone who doesn’t like the idea of games as art, this won’t change your mind.
This is an interactive medium to show the story of this old lady’s visit to a local graveyard. In black and white. Available for free, today only. PC and Mac.
Best played pretending you are standing at a kiosk in an art museum.

I finally beat: The Secret of Monkey Island

Hello audience.
I’m a gamer. And I hadn’t beaten The Secret of Monkey Island.
That is, until it was released as a special edition on the PC, XBLA, and the iPhone. I picked it up for the xbox (because I’m an achievement whore), and I had not beaten one of the classics in both adventuring gaming, and gaming as a whole.

L4D2 leaked trailer. F* Yes!

The trailer is poorly directed and piece-mealed together. Especially when compared to the original trailer for the first game. Still, I think I’ll loop it a few times. It looks like it’ll be amazing fun.
