First Thoughts - Star Trek: Online

After spending a few days of quality time with the Star Trek: Online open beta, Roo (our resident Star Trek nerd) gives his thoughts.  What's good?  What's bad?  And is it worth your time and wallet fodder?

December 2009 Update & Holiday Greeting

As we come to the end of another year, Roo and the Commodore would like to give an update on the status of the website, forums, videos, the post-marathon aftermath, and projects for the future.

Let's Play - Star Wars: Customizable Card Game

Once you've seen our Star Wars Customizable Card Game review, watch the game we played that refreshed our memories. Were our midichlorian levels high enough to understand the 150 page rule book?  Will Roo ever remember to force drain?  Is Darth Vader really not a nice guy?  The answers to these questions and more, in this "Let's Play" from the Clan of the Gray Wolf.

Star Wars: Customizable Card Game - Retrospective Review

We're going to take you back.  Waaaaay back to a time when customizable card games ruled the Earth.  The Commodore and Roo pick up a box of Star Wars CCG Premiere from Ebay and hijinx ensue.  Watch as they give their thoughts on this game after playing it for the first time in a decade and try to decipher the encyclopedia of rules that tripped them up so many times around the high school lunch table.

And once you've seen the review, be sure to watch the companion video of us playing game that refreshed our memories - a "Let's Play" of Star Wars CCG from the Clan of the Gray Wolf.

Movie Review: Zombieland

In the first of our videos commemorating Halloween 2009, the Commodore and Boomer sit down to talk about their recent viewing of "Zombieland". Find out what their take was, as well as who gets their votes for perhaps the best cameo ever.

Movie Review: Press Start

A self-described microbudget independent film, Press Start sets out to put right what so many video game movies in the the past have repeatedly made wrong.  Does it succeed?  Roo puts his finely tuned tastes to the test and lays it all out for you in this review.

First Thoughts - Scribblenauts

Roo has recently been drawn in (that's a pun, get it?) by the Scribblenauts phenomenon.  Here's his off-the-cuff review of this innovative game for the Nintendo DS.
