Remember Peggle? Remember how addictive that simple game of bouncing balls across a puzzle-like layout was? Well prepare to be just as addicted to Roundguard, which takes the same “bouncing” concept and adds a little extra… taking players through a series of mystery dungeons with over 150 unique items and the punishment of a roguelike with procedural maps.
Of course like the aforementioned Peggle, Roundguard is basically a riff on the classic Breakout formula, however instead of bouncing a ball of bricks, you launch your character, literally, into monster-infested rooms with spiked floors, gold pots, and even drums – and you keep bouncing around the screen until you either a) hit the matress scrolling back and forth and bounce out of the screen to safety, or b) fall miserably into the spikes at the bottom of the screen… Yes, I did say bottom. For you launch your character from a crossbow from...

Filmmaker Quinn Shephard didn’t go to film school — instead, she made her own. The New Jersey native was just 15 when she came up with the idea for what would become her feature directorial debut “Blame,” a modern high school-set take on Arthur Miller’s classic play “The Crucible.” Seven years later, Shephard is at the Tribeca Film Festival with the film, one that she not only stars in, but also wrote, directed, edited and produced. At 21, she’s reached a benchmark that usually filmmakers a few more years of work.
The film follows Shephard as high school outcast Abigail Grey, who returns to high school after a mysterious incident the year before, only to form a taboo bond with her new drama teacher (Chris Messina). As their relationship blossoms in very unexpected ways, Abigail’s nemesis Melissa (Nadia Alexander) observes from afar, continually threatening to bust the entire situation wide open (a witch hunt?...

Lego Details
Pieces: 324
Minifigures: Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard), Owen (Chris Pratt), Acu Officer
Dinosaurs: 2 Raptors (Blue, Delta)
Price: $49.99/£49.99 on Amazon
Review
Rating: ★★★★
This mid-range set is everything you’d expect and everything you’d want from a Lego movie tie-in set: the design is brilliant, highly detailed and narratively strong (as well as offering younger players scope to actually play with it) and it’s a must-have for Lego collectors.
Arguably the strongest selling point is that it comes with an Owen mini-figure (the character played by Chris Pratt in the movie) alongside two of his tame raptors. Obviously there’s some suggestion in this set and the other raptor themed set (Raptor Escape) that they aren’t entirely tame, but that might be an element of creative licence for the sets that don’t include the bigger threats.
Indeed, the official synopsis states quite openly that the mobile...

Never underestimate the things a son will do for his mama.
That’s the takeaway from the Extant series finale, in which both of Molly’s (for lack of a better term) “kids” play a significant role — and one of them sacrifices himself to protect her and the rest of the world.
But which non-human saved the world: the robot or the alien? Read on to find out.

You've seen our wish lists for the movie buffs in your life, and now the team is back to talk about some of the video game related gifts they'd love to see sitting under their tree. While it's our own personal choices, some of these may help you pick out the perfect gift for the gamer in your life.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence Limited Edition
It's my favorite video game franchise ever, and this one was cool. You get the game and special stuff for it, but the limited edition came with all the cut scenes pieced together to make a 1 1/2 hour movie! Any Mgs fan knows that the series has great cutscenes and awesome stories, so this is friggin cool! It's hard to find, so the cheapest I've found was 100 dollars. Back then "limited edition" literally meant Limited Edition, unlike today.
