Netflix Does It Again: Daredevil Review
Netflix does it again: Daredevil Review
It has been quite sometime since we last saw Daredevil in live action goodness. We haven't see the defender of Hell's Kitchen since February 14, 2003 with good ol Ben Affleck taking on the role. It seemed to be another Batman and Robin situation where at the wee age of 13, both films were super rad because we had little else to compare them to. Then as we got older Avengers, Dark knight, Spider Man, Guardians of the Galaxy and even Man of Steel came out and we saw what great superhero films actually look like. Needless to say, Daredevil crashed and burned in the ranking of best comic book films.
Once the CW jumped on board with the metahuman frenzy, Arrow, Gotham, Flash arrived and were incredible. It's safe to say that both are at the level of entertainment of Smallville: Fun, light hearted, action packed, good guys always win, and tons of references to other heroes in the DC universe. Marvel arrived with Agents of Shield and Agent Carter, both were good as well(I'm much more of a DC fan, so there may be some bias).
Imagine the geek world's surprise when Netflix announced that they were going to be filming a Daredevil series. Everyone and their mother were shocked and awed. Netflix is known for House of Cards, Orange is the new Black, Hemlock Grove, Marco Polo and so many more spectacular shows. But could they handle doing a super hero show? A lot of their originals deal mainly with real life scenarios, realistic people who have down to earth issues like betraying people to rise in power, survive prison after living a very privileged life, become the adviser for a great and powerful Khan, find evil and defeat it using werewolf powers...oh...well never mind, it seems they are amazing at doing fantastic stories. Yes! I believe that Netflix does have what it takes to make this show great!

Doom & Gloom: A Darkest Dungeon Review
Doom & Gloom: A Darkest Dungeon Review
Have you ever thought: "Well jeez, Dark Souls is a lot of fun but I wish it could have a baby with XCOM and could have a wicked awesome art style." or even if you are just a plain ol masochist, Darkest Dungeon is the game for you! From Red Hook Studios comes a game that holds no punches in their dungeons, tips the scale against you from the start and some how you, as the player, can not get enough. Darkest Dungeon is a dungeon crawling RPG filled with various classes, abilities, equip-able items, and my personal favorite: A stress meter. Yes. You read that right, your party of adventures can and will go bat shit crazy down in the dungeons as they fight against everything unnatural, discover horrors untold and find themselves victim to various diseases and traps.
Knighting Nostalgia: A Shovel Knight Review
Knighting Nostalgia: A Shovel Knight Review
Most games these days are all about state of the art graphics, modern music, and complex controls. The olden days of the classic game are slowly being overshadowed by games like Call of Duty and Skyrim, with their realistic gameplay and complicated abilities.
But yet, the retro, indie gaming world still has a place within our hearts. And even though many games are coming out that defy this retro world, some actually embrace it.
Enter, Shovel Knight.
DC Heroes arrive onto TV! Are they worth watching?
Flash! Arrow! Gotham! We haven't seen a live action DC comics television show since Smallville back in 2001 to 2011. Even during it's reign we were exposed to the first instance of DC super heroes appearing on the most popular show and then appear on their own shows later on. During Smallville we saw two other DC shows attempt to make it on air, both Birds of Prey and Aquaman. Unfortunately, one had been cancelled early on and the other simply did not even make it past the pilot episode.
