The President Is Missing (Book) – Review

A political thriller with espionage, cyberterrorism, and a rogue president, all in a page-turning masterpiece aimed squarely at every political nerd’s inner masculinity. James Patterson & Bill Clinton’s 2018 thriller, The President Is Missing, is something I’ve found myself enjoying almost every page…

Russell T Davies Returns To Doctor Who

I made a noise on Friday, a very loud one at that. I didn’t know that I could make it, and I’m pretty sure my cats will rip my eyes out when I least expect it, but I don’t care. I said…

It was just two weeks ago (I think) that Sheltered was part of Epic’s weekly free game giveaway on the Epic Games Store. I think it was a little more than obvious that I wasn’t enthralled by it as a game, being focused around survival…

Overwatch 2 Exec Leaves Blizzard

I won’t run down the entire recent history of Activision-Blizzard’s woes today. I did a majority of that yesterday when CEO Bobby Kotick and several other executives were subpoenaed in a federal investigation. However, I will repeat that it has not been…

Upcoming Home Renovation Game, Hometopia, To Get Demo

I think I’ve said it before, but I try to avoid press releases like a goth avoids a rainbow. They are just far too awkward to work with. Press releases, not goths. Anyway, there was one that caught my eye last week,…

Activision-Blizzard Under Investigation, Kotick Subpoenaed

For the better part of two months now, we’ve been covering the Activision-Blizzard case the best we can. Though we may have missed a story here and there over the last two weeks. In essence, it started back in July when the…
