Vin Diesel Confirms Riddick 4: Furya Script is Complete

Almost 20 years ago we saw the breakout role of Vin Diesel titled Pitch Black. The movie was about a criminal named Riddick that could see in the dark and was one of the more feared people in existence. There have been occasional movies in the series ever since and recently Vin Diesel took to Instagram with a video showing us the completed scripted for the fourth installment titled Furya. Little else is known about the movie but judging by the name it seems we will learn more about Riddick’s homeworld and learn more about his past. Hopefully we will have more details soon. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Aliens: Dust to Dust

aliens dust

In Alien 3 we learned the Xenomorph can adapt based on it’s hosts traits, giving us a dog/ ox alien in 3; Dust to Dust gives gives us a surprising take on the Xenomorph’s ability to change from there hosts.

Maxon is a  twelve year old kid living with his mom on a Terra-forming colony. One night he has a terrible nightmare, and wakes up to a dead animal on the floor and his mother is alarmed. He dreamed it was wrapped around her face. His mother isn’t so worried about that because outside the colony is under attack from a massive infestation of aliens. Without guns, just the bare supplies they can grab, they flee for an struggling, nearly full escape shuttle and barely manage to leave the area. When things seem to be going alright, Max’s mother’s chest explodes with an alien. The chest-burster kills one of the passengers but they seemingly kill it by destroying the ship around it. Now trapped in the sands during a violent sandstorm trying to reach an outpost to escape while being haunted by a one armed alien obsessed with Max…

Dust to Dust is a good ole fashioned survival horror story. I like that Max, a kid is the main character which adds some vulnerability. There are plenty of aliens, including a brief encounter with a Queen at the end, but I like Max’s connection to the one armed alien. The art is really good but sometimes the abundance of darkness makes some of the action scenes hard to track. The story is one of the better I’ve read in Aliens comics with some decent characters. If you are a Alien or horror fan, this is a cool comic to pick up. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

 

 

911 Operator (PC)

Recently my friend over at Gaming With Noobs picked me up a copy of 911 Operator to check out since it was on sale and he enjoyed it. So please check out his review if you get a minute. As for me, I enjoyed the game but I do agree with him. The game while fun does get repetitive really fast if you are playing the base game. The calls and incidents repeat themselves and you do basically just spend all your time left and right-clicking to send cops, fire trucks, and medics places.

The flip side is it is fun trying to manage it all, do you send your police to check on the crying kid that may or may not be something or do you send them to the argument at the bar? As you make more money you can get bigger and better vehicles and helicopters or even a horse. I like to give the guy on a horse machine a gun. There is no reason for this besides I like to imagine a dude on a horse riding up to someone with an M-16 on a horse.

You can also just ignore the calls completely because screw that dude with a cat stuck in a tree. It really isn’t your problem right? Just don’t leave your cops for dead during a shootout, it tends to make the game harder and I never actually got anyone to die. They kind of just hang out until you send someone in my experience. We all know I wasn’t just going to play this game the right way. The game is worth the money tho and I wish I picked it up sooner. Even more impressive is you can download the map for most cities and they are quite accurate. I downloaded the one for my home town and ended up with a car accident a block from my house. So have fun, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Harley Quinn SDCC trailer

It’s no real new the DC streaming service ain’t doing so great, after the fast cancellation of Swamp Thing and the only Titans getting green lite for a second season, despite meh ratings at best. I must admit, I dig the bright, colorful, and pretty adult-rated Harley cartoon. I can’t say it looks great but it sure looks promising. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

SDCC Flash season 6 trailer

As with the CW DC universe, I’m pretty out of touch but I did love Flash, season 1 and always meant to catch up (ha ha Flash pun). Away, Flash season 6 has the Scarlet Speedster and crew facing off against Bloodwork who seems to have bone to pick with the crew. The only thing I’m not that thrilled with is how super bright Barry’s costume is to me; I know it’s traditional but I liked the darker red better myself. My the gaming gods bring you glory.

Golf Clash (Mobile)

Golf Clash is one of those games I saw and gave a shot because it seemed really simple and quick to play and honestly it truly is. Just pull back for power, wait for the slider to be in the sweet spot and let go and boom. The ball goes flying down the course. Winning games will give you coins and occasionally a chest that takes a bit of time to open. The chest may give you coins or points towards clubs. These clubs will let you upgrade the corresponding club to increase your performance. And here is where my issue comes in, it basically becomes pay to win at that point at least later. Getting enough coins to upgrade clubs takes forever if you aren’t willing to pay real money, and you have little hope of beating people that have. Skill will only take you so far honestly. It is a fun and simple game, just be aware that occasionally at hire levels winning isn’t something you can probably so without some cash. Best wishes and may thee gaming gods bring you glory.

When Thor 4 Confirmed to be in MCU Timeline

As reported by cinemablend as many people have been wondering ever since Thor Love and Thunder was announced, where the hell could this movie take place in the MCU timeline? With Guardians of the Galaxy 3 and Thor leaving with them where does Thor 4 take place? Well, writer James Gunn ended that discussion with one word. “Before” So that settles it, Thor Love and  Thunder takes place before Guardians of the Galaxy 3. Now it is just a matter of waiting for their inevitable release. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

SDCC Arrow season 8 preview

Next year Arrow concludes after 8 seasons and the story of Oliver Queen and Green Arrow is coming to an end. While the show has had it’s fair share of ups and downs, it did launch the CW’s DC universe and that alone grants it a lot of credit. I’m wondering if Oliver will live to see a happy ending or he’ll meet his match at last. Time will tell next year. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
