Hey internet! This blog was down for a bit a while back. Sorry about that. I’m still in the process of fixing stuff and soon enough you’ll find me restoring this blog back the way it used to be.

Now if I can only find things to blog about.

(Thanks to Jhay for helping me fix this!)

"Doctor Who: The Snowmen" Review

Hello, everyone. It is time once again for my review of the latest Doctor Who episode, so please indulge me as I bore the shit out of you while I talk about the various intricacies of the Christmas Special. Ok, ready, guys? Here we go.

I wasn’t able to talk about the last two episodes before The Snowmen, mainly because The Power of Three and The Angels Take Manhattan were two of the most heartbreaking  Doctor Who episodes I have seen since Rose Tyler and Donna Noble’s respective exits. I really, really, loved the Ponds, ok? Rory’s my second-favorite companion after Donna, and we all know about my unhealthy obsession with Amy Pond and her ginger sexiness. Which is why I was both dreading and anticipating Clara’s debut as companion in The Snowmen. How the hell is she going to live up to the Ponds? Also, is she going to be another sassy, sexy, companion in the same vein as Amy and River?

Full review, plus spoilers, after this point! Continue reading

Ade's Christmas Wishlist 2012

Welp, 2012 just went by so fast. I can’t believe it’s December already. And yeah, I barely blogged at all. Sorry. To make up for the shitty year that was 2012, I’m going to write something now. And it’s a Christmas wishlist. Because, come on, it’s that time of year where I bug you, my readers, for expensive consumer electronics and with the lack of gifts from you all, I’ll end up getting disappointed in you guys. Again. Anyway. Wishlist coming up.

iPad mini or Nexus 7

I honestly don’t know if I need a tablet. My smartphones do the job fine, but I swear, I can’t read books on my phones. I’m actually thinking of getting a 7″ tablet just for books. And 7″ seems to be the perfect size because I don’t want to lug a full-sized tablet around. Aaaand yeah, getting work done on the without squinting on my phone’s screen is also a good idea.

"The Walking Dead: The Game" Review

I’ll let you in on a secret: I’m not much of a gamer. Sure, I can survive a couple of rounds in Tekken or Street Fighter, and I’ve put in countless hours finishing Resident Evil 2 and 3, but I never bothered owning a console since my PS1 broke, I don’t have any games installed on my PC, and if you put me in the middle of an FPS multiplayer match I will suck so bad my teammates will kill me once the 3rd match starts.

But then, I’ve always loved scary games with loads of zombies in them, hence my fondness of the Resident Evil series, even though I failed to finish 4, 5 kinda sucks, and I didn’t even bother with 6 due to the bad press. And, yeah, don’t get me started on the fucking stupid movies. Which brings us to The Walking Dead: The Game.

I’ve heard nothing but good things about this episodic game from my officemates. Once a new episode comes out, they’d download it, finish it in a day, and end up talking about it like some TV show. I decided to give it a try. And even though at $20 it was hella expensive for an iOS game, if everything people say about this game was true, it’ll be worth it. Continue reading
