Battleship Review: It’s From a Board Game and Stars Rihanna, so Don’t Expect Too Much
Battleship is a classic naval strategy game about aircraft carriers, submarines and patrol boats. It started as a pen and paper game even before World War I, and was eventually made into a board game by the Milton-Bradley company in 1967. This game remained popular enough even in more recent years as an electronic versions were produced for the Playstation, Wii and the DS. Despite its long-lasting appeal as a game, I must admit this was hardly the game that I would expect could inspire a summer blockbuster movie. When I heard that this movie was based on a game,…

Celebrity Apprentice Finale Live Recap (5/20/2012) Who Will Win? Arsenio Hall vs Clay Aiken: “And The Winner Is…”
Last week on Celebrity Apprentice, a lot of the viewers were shocked to find out that in the first ten minutes of the show, one of the top three was eliminated. It was even more surprising when Aubrey O’Day was fired by Donald Trump. What’s most shocking is that she was fired for ‘lack of experience’; which is definitely not apparent as she nailed a lot of tasks given to her in the entire season. In the end, it comes down to a battle of the boys – Arsenio Hall vs Clay Aiken for the Celebrity Apprentice finale. Who will emerge…

WWE Over the Limit 2012 Live Recap
I actually feel rotten that I wasn’t able to post my predictions on time, though I was able to save them prior to the show. So if you’re interested anyway, here they are. My Predictions before the PPV: Kane will defeat Zack Ryder. Kofi and Truth will retain. Layla will retain. Sheamus will retain. CM Punk will retain. Big Johnny will win after a non-employee interferes. That’ll be either Brock Lesnar or Big Show (who was fired last Monday on RAW). Pre-show: Zack Ryder vs. Kane Kane dominated much of the matchup until Ryder was able to comeback with a…

“Harley Quinn’s Revenge” Preview: This is for you, Mr. J!
Batman: Arkham City saw many gamers feel and experience the entirety of the once-bustling Gotham City-turned mega-prison. Gamers were introduced to new battle tactics, refreshing boss fights (*ehem* Mr. Freeze), the freedom to soar through Arkham City, and ultimately, the opportunity to pay respects to the greatest homicidal maniac in the series. The premise of “Harley Quinn’s Revenge” should be a no-brainer to those who faithfully followed Batman: Arkham City’s intriguing story. Set after the events of Batman: Arkham City, Batman is nowhere to be found, his inability to save both Joker and Talia Al Ghul took its toll on…

New “Crystal White” and “Limited Edition Diva” PS Vita
It appears that Sony is indeed going for a color change for the esteemed PS Vita. An announcement was made that a “Crystal White” version of the Vita is headed our way. To help visualize how white looks on the Vita, a picture is provided alongside Sony’s announcement. Quite neat, no? I am also a fan of black since black is slimming and has always been a very casual and sophisticated color. But, ever since the iPhone 4 unleashed it’s white color, I can’t help but feel that white is also starting to pave the way into a chicness. The…

Airtime Team Up for the Napster Founders
Napster co-founders Sean Parker and Shawn Fanning are in business once again, teaming up for their new project that they call, “Airtime”. They sent invitations for its launch on June 5, at the Milky Studios in New York City. This team up first came together when they created Napster in 1999, a peer-to-peer music sharing site that allows music lovers to share audio files and talk about music online. Napster faced numerous lawsuits from record labels, leaving them broke and out of business. But they’ve come a long way after a decade. Sean Parker founded Plaxo, made his was into…
The Cranberries LIVE in Concert
I am an avid pop music follower and concert goer. I would even consider this my vice. Previously, I would really try to make time to watch every time a Billboard-charting pop artist would visit Manila. However, gone now are the days when concerts would be special rare events that music fans would save up for. Now these foreign artists come so regularly you really have to choose wisely for which one to buy those preciously expensive concert tickets. In fact, there were three concerts scheduled one after each other this second week at the Araneta Coliseum. April 10 would…
The Samsung Galaxy S3 Live and Alive: Inspired By Nature, Finally Released Into The Wild
Finally, the Samsung Galaxy S3 – the only real competitor to the iPhone – has been finally revealed and released. Speaking of the iPhone, Samsung continues to bite from the Apple by mimicking their marketing tactics. They’ve kept every detail about their latest flagship handset top secret. Until today. Ladies and gentleman, welcome the Samsung Galaxy S3. (Applause) The Samsung Galaxy S III is Samsung’s flagship super-smartphone (because a smartphone just can’t be “smart” anymore; it must be “super” and after that “super duper” smart). The handset features a ridiculously snappy 1.4GHz quad-core processor, a vividly stunning 4.8-inch HD Super…
UFC ON FOX 3 PREDICTION 5/5/12: BARRY VS JOHNSON
Coming off an impressive knock out win over Christian Morecraft back in November of 2011, Pat Barry intends to do a repeat-performance against his towering counterpart, Lavar Johnson, the first Strike Force heavyweight to make his way to the UFC after the announcement that the label was being absrobed by Zuffa. Barry, being a very dynamic kick boxer with tremendous power on all four limbs, is known for knocking the wind out of his opponents; however, he needs to continue stacking up his wins as it is evident that he is “consistently inconsistent” with his performance in the ring.

The Dark Knight Rises: The Rise of Official Trailer #3
The Dark Knight Rises official trailer #3 rises from Warner Bros. Pictures. For the superfans, you know what The Dark Knight is all about and what it ultimately comes down to, so we won’t have you wade through the usual repeated rehashed tidbits of info about who stars in this movie and whatnot. But it bears repeating that this is the end for Christopher Nolan’s legendary trilogy of Batman – this saddens us nerds because it’s been an awesome adventure for us all, superfans and fans alike. Nonetheless, boy are we excited; more excited than we were about The Avengers….
The Avengers Review: No More Waiting for Nick Fury at the End – the Avengers Take the Initiative to Save the World
The Avengers. A movie that instantly turned into a trend in the far east. A movie that raises a big salute to a group of the most famous heroes in the Marvel heroes franchise. On its first day, cinemas were instantly packed by tons of viewers. In this review, I will talk about two things that permeate the movie; the plot, and everything else that you will see in the movie. For those who have yet to see the movie and do not want it spoiled, let me warn you; you have come to the wrong place. The plot is…
The Avengers Premiere: Live Tweets from the Far East (Spoilers! All of it!)
Our Ninja Nerdle is at it again! He’s been traveling the world and sneaking his way into places unreachable for us regular folk. Today, his target: Marvel’s The Avengers premiere. This time, however, we took our precious camera back and gave him an old Blackberry Curve instead. For a ninja, he’s got the worst buttery fingers for electronics. But we have no fear since he’ll just be sitting in a comfy theater chair live-tweeting all two hours and twenty-two minutes of The Avengers. Our Ninja Nerdle is somewhere in Asia right now (exact location undisclosed and it looks like…
