OK, it's just a fun mockup, but I had you worried, didn't I!

Thanks for the heads up, Laughing Squid.

DC Universe Online

I gotta say, I'm no gamer.

I like my Wii even though the graphics are mediocre, and I've never played a MMORPG, but this trailer for the upcoming DC Universe has me reconsidering my non-gamer status:

Christmas Orcs

I was playing Hordes of Orcs on my Mac this morning when I noticed something:

Yep! The orcs in the menu screen and in the game are wearing Santa hats. Ho-ho indeed!

Spider-Man: Web of Shadows for Wii

So every year about this time I tend to stock up on books and video games for the winter. It’s a good opportunity because you can usually find some ridiculous deals, and I’m not particular about stuff being a year or two old.

While the wife and kids are out shopping I took the time this morning to dig into Spider-Man: Web of Shadows on the ol’ Wii. It’s gotten some great reviews, and I have to say, they’re well earned.

I’ve been waiting for a more intuitive Spidey game, and this seems to be it. True, I’m only a few levels in, and I’m sure I’ll never master all the intricacies that a 12-year-old can submerge themselves in, but it’s sure fun beating up baddies and swinging around.

iPhone Space AceI downloaded Space Ace for my iPhone last week largely for sentimental reasons, but now I can’t stop playing it! And it looks perfect!

Word is Dragon’s Lair isn’t far behind!

HELP!

(BTW, great article on Space Ace history here!)
