‘Sledgehammer’ – Peter Gabriel – Track of the Day

Today is my birthday, and Peter Gabriel‘s. To be fair, it’s not like I need an excuse to listen to Peter Gabriel. Or to watch what I consider one of the most iconic music videos of all time. I was blown away by this video when I was a kid. And to be fair, I […]

Netflix Gets Castlevania Series

Netflix made plenty of announcements this week, but Castlevania getting an animated series overshadowed everything else. The Belmonts are back! The details surrounding this were confusing. Especially because the press release said Castlevania: Season 1 Part I and that it’s coming out this year. However, the main question in my mind was which Belmont clan […]

First Images of Pacific Rim Uprising

Since this article is about Pacific Rim Uprising there’s something you have to do first. Play this as you read. I mean, Ramin Djawadi‘s music is partly why the first Pacific Rim is so epic. I will admit that I actually watched it on the cinema three times because I loved it so much. And […]

LucasArts Wish List – Geek Goodies

This won’t be the last time I say this, but I love point and click games. Playing Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade when I was a small kid shaped my life in many ways. And to this day a lot of LucasArts adventures are still some of my favourites! So, for this article I […]

Her Majesty’s SPIFFING Review – Point N’ Click Royally

Kickstarter is a bit of a gamble when it comes to games and Belfast studio BillyGoat Entertainment are well aware of it. The first time they tried to fund Her Majesty’s SPIFFING didn’t get close to their goal. Fortunately, they weren’t discouraged and some time later they went back and got enough funding. Last December […]

Chad Stahelski Talks Highlander Reboot

Let me get this out of the way: I love Highlander (please don’t ask me about the sequels). It’s a movie that I’ve rewatched plenty of times over the years and I still enjoy. There has been talk of a remake for many years but nothing really came out of it. Directors like Juan Carlos […]

‘Square Hammer’ – Ghost – Track of the Day

Over the holidays I decided it was time for me to listen to Ghost. I had heard plenty of stuff about them, to the point where I know someone who’s part of a tribute band but I for some reason I always forgot to listen to them. And after doing that I can’t help but […]

‘Turbo Killer’ – Carpenter Brut – Track Of The Day

I tend to struggle with these Track of the Day articles. When I picked this song part of myself said “You posted songs with heavy synths before. Are you seriously going for another one?” My answer was simple; Yes! Especially because Carpenter Brut’s ‘Turbo Killer’ is the coolest music video of last year. Not much […]

Twin Peaks Gets Premiere Date

Earlier this week, Showtime finally revealed when the new season of Twin Peaks will premiere. The date in question is May 21. Almost 26 years after its cancellation (Laura Palmer was wrong by a year). At a Television Critics Association panel, Showtime president David Newlins confirmed that the series will consist of 18 episodes. Episodes […]

Whachu’ Doin This Week… Abel?

Hi there, it’s been a while. Greetings from Spain, as I’m back to the old motherland for Christmas and such. I’m currently recovering from falling ill over the weekend. I also had an assignment due for this week and I spent an obscene amount of time fighting with code I had to write. To avoid […]
