Batman Beyond – Pile of Shame

My game of comic book catch-up continues this week with Batman Beyond, a continuation of one of my favorite animated TV shows that takes a look at the Dark Knight of the future.

Half-Life 2 – Pile of Shame

Posted by Luke Brown

For years, people had been talking about how phenomenal Valve’s Half-Life 2 was. I just didn’t understand the appeal of yet another first-person shooter where you fought off an alien invasion. It didn’t help that I didn’t have a PC of my own, and that until the release of The Orange Box, the Half-Life experience [...]

Justice League: Doom

Justice League: Doom is the latest animated adaptation from Warner Home Video. Not only does it highlight the strengths of the original comic story it was based on, but it also continues to raise the bar ever higher for DC Comics animated features.

Celebrate Valentine’s Day with The Further Adventures of Cupid and Eros

Posted by Sarah LeBoeuf

It’s Valentine’s Day, which is traditionally a day of either displays of affection towards your loved ones, or bitching about this “Hallmark holiday”. Either way, a web series about the gods of love in a modern world full of messy break-ups and infidelity seems particularly appropriate.

Crossed – Pile of Shame

Posted by Sarah LeBoeuf

I loved the post-apocalyptic Crossed when it first began, but somewhere during the second story arc I started to lose interest. This week, I got caught up on “Family Values” and “Psychopath” to see if the nightmare-inducing series was still consistently interesting with a different writer/artist team.

In the first part of the two-part story “On Your Own,” Buffy turns to an old friend for guidance about a decision only she can make.

Ico – Pile of Shame

Posted by Luke Brown

When Ico came out more than a decade ago, it wasn’t the type of game I could see myself playing. It was heavy on atmosphere, but light on the sports, guns, and action. It just wasn’t the kind of game that a guy sharing a television, gaming system, and house with three other guys would [...]

Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season Nine – Pile of Shame

Posted by Sarah LeBoeuf

After the gut-wrenching events of the end of Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight, I was happy to see the team scaling back and getting back to basics with Season Nine. I couldn’t wait for it to start. And then the first five issues wound up in my backlog.
