Transformers: Armada Volume 1 Chris Sarracini Published: 2003 | Pages:144 My Rating: 2/5 Ugn, really?The art is kind of mediocre, the story is fairly gibberish with the whole Minicons thing. the kids look like they are like 5 which is just rediculous.Basically, don't bother and stick to the main line IDW Transformers comics. Description: The Decepticons, feeding off the energy of captured Mini-Cons, are about to begin a hostile takeover of the Transformers home planet, Cybertron. Do Optimus Prime and the heroic Autobots stand a chance of defending the planet against these super-powered villains? And will the Mini-Cons ever get…

Review – Back to the Future the Game (PC)

Telltale is one of those companies that focuses on a single type of game.  They are the absolute king of the “Slightly Overly Simple Un-losable Adventure Game” niche.  They are also working very hard on becoming king of the “Somewhat Unlikely Licensed Based Slightly Overly Simple Un-losable Adventure Game” niche.  They have Homestar Runner, Wallace & Grommit, Back to the Future, Jurassic Park and Law & Order, just to name, well, most of them.  There is also Sam & Max but I believe that is an in house property.  Back to the Future was the first real hit in this…

World of Warcraft – Part 12 – Damnation

So, Death Knights. Death Knights are a little odd in how they work.  Unlike every other class, you cannot create a Death Knight until level 55.  I’m not real sure why this is exactly, I guess it makes slightly more sense for a harbinger of doom to be an experienced powerful warrior, not some crummy level 1 nobody.  Also, according to the plot, Death Knights seem to be fallen or corrupted warriors, so maybe the idea is, you would “recreate” your character as a Death Knight.  As a Death Knight, you work for the Lich King Arthas.  This pleases me…

World of Warcraft – Part 11 – Dungeons and Dragons

I’ve been playing through dungeons, which are grouped matches with 4 other players where you fight tougher than normal enemies.  These groups generally consist of a Tank, who absorbs damage and attracts the enemies, a Healer, who keeps the tank (and the group) alive.  And three DPS or Damage Per Second people, who have the job of dealing out as much damage as they can, as quickly as possible.  I am DPS, which is the most common type, since it’s easiest to play.  I like to think that I’m actually pretty awesome at DPS though since Fury Warrior ie Berserker…

World of Warcraft – Part 10 – Pandas… EVERYWHERE

A short period of time after I started playing, the latest and greatest Expansion, Mists of Pandaria, was released.  Pandas have been somewhat of an Easter Egg thing for the series (I think) for a while.  I know that in Warcraft 3 anyway, there was something to do with Pandas which was optional.  They now get their own full on debut for the world of Azeroth. The day of it’s release, Pandas popped up all over.  They were running all over the place doing quests and leveling up as quickly as they can.  Later, when I started playing dungeons, they…
