Everything’s Better In Space – Even Cleaning.

Everything’s Better in Space – Even Cleaning.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, a pair of blue-collar janitors battled Imperial grime, with only a sonic mop and a bottle of glass cleaner to see them through! And as of April 2, Canadian-based Space Janitors started their second season of sci-fi comedy, bringing us back in the fight to find our anti-heroes still alive.

Ten Game Of Thrones Characters We Love To Hate

Ten Game of Thrones Characters We Love to Hate

The third season of Game of Thrones premieres on tonight, and the excitement is rising! The trailers tease another season of fighting, scheming, as well as other vices, against a backdrop of war and politics. There are no real heroes and even the villains can have a sympathetic presentation at times. I recently watched season two and I’m currently re-watching season one which raises the question: who am I looking forward, or not looking forward, to seeing again in the coming days? Warning: spoilers for season one and two ahead.

GDC 2013: Alli’s GDC Diaries Day Three and Four – Information Overload

What day is it? I’m not even sure right now. My brain and body are officially fried in a wonderful way that only information overload could accomplish.

I’ll have to do a full write up later but for now I’m going to offer you, in no particular order, the talks I attended that I thoroughly enjoyed.

PAX East 2013: Secret Ponchos – Style Drenched Spaghetti Time

As I was wandering the show floor at this year’s PAX East (while trying desperately to avoid the dreaded PAX POX), I stumbled across Secret Ponchos, the latest title from Switchblade Monkeys. While there were hundreds of games at PAX to be played something about Secret Poncho’s raw style really drew me in. I guess I’m a sucker for a good poncho.

PAX East 2013: The PAX Experience

PAX East 2013: The PAX Experience

PAX has done a lot for our little outlet. Over two years ago Matt, Scott, and myself started NA as a means to highlight the crazy things we really care about (Hilary hopped on board later). Our podcast has become a beloved weekly ritual that all of us hate to miss. To be honest (speaking on their behalf), we never anticipated being able to talk to the folks that we have over the years, and so many incredible names have already been crossed off our our “bucket list.”
