Review: FullMetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos

Review: FullMetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos

26 January 2012

It’s always hard to do a review of an anime movie that’s based on a TV series. These kinds of film tend to work as continuations of the shows they’re based on, and make it difficult to judge it on its own merit for people who may not know what’s going on. FullMetal Alchemist: The [...]

Rumor: Microsoft Goes After Used Games

Rumor: Microsoft Goes After Used Games

26 January 2012

Rayman Origins coming to PC

Rayman Origins coming to PC

26 January 2012

Rayman Origins was one of the best games that 2011 had to offer. Note that I did not qualify that by saying that it was one of the best PLATFORMERS of 2011, but one of the best GAMES of 2011, regardless of game type. Not only was it one of 2011′s best offerings, it is [...]

Agent 47 makes his way to the printed page again in Hitman: Damnation

Agent 47 makes his way to the printed page again in Hitman: Damnation

25 January 2012

I’ve always thought that the Hitman series of video games would lend themselves well to novelization. The aspects of patience, detail, and attention in Hitman would make for great suspense on the page. Apparently I wasn’t alone in this thought, since 2007 saw the release of a Hitman novel, Hitman: Enemy Within. Enemy Within took [...]

Marvel announces Ultimate Spider-Man Adventures and Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes Adventures

25 January 2012

One of the things I was happy about when hearing that Disney bought Marvel was the massive media empire that some of my favorite superheroes were now part of. And since DC has a monopoly on Cartoon Network (due to being owned by the same company, Warner Bros.), I was waiting for some new blood [...]

Review: Tropico 4 (360)

24 January 2012

I was primarily a PC gamer growing up. I had consoles, but my first choice of game and game type was generally on PC. From the memory match games I’d play against my father on our Tandy 1000 to the wide variety of games on my grandfather’s Commodore 64, and from the multiple 5-1/4″ floppy [...]

About Marooners’ Rock

Everyone grows up; this is how the world works. Just because we grow decrepit and old, however, does not mean we have to forsake the things that make us happy, childish though they may seem. This is the core concept of Marooners’ Rock; we geek out on the things of our past, present, and future. Society and cultural norms be damned!
