I just finished reading the new Wheel of Time book, The Gathering Storm. Get it, read it. That is all.
PS: I may give a more detailed review later.

Batman Forever Movie Review
Since I reviewed a good Batman game, I thought I would review a bad Batman movie to follow up. While it's not as bad as Batman & Robin, it's still pretty painful, so today's review is of:
What can be considered the second worst Batman movie of the original Batman franchise started by Tim Burton, Batman Forever, while not as horrid as Batman & Robin, is still pretty bad. Changing directors from Burton to Joel Shumacher was not the wisest choice for Warner Brothers to make, because the series changes from a dark Gothic story to a campy goofball story with offensive colorings and overacting that only Jim Carrey can master. I'll be reviewing section of the movie before giving a final score that's not an average.

Batman Arkham Asylum Review
Batman Arkham Asylum Review
Superhero games are a tricky business. Good superhero games are rare. They range from good to average to bad and forgettable. Good superhero games that come to mind are the original Batman game on the original Nintendo, which was a Ninja Gaiden clone, Spider-Man 2 on the Playstation 2, and a couple more. Of course, there's never been a good Superman game. But now we have what could be THE definitive Batman game ever made. While the original NES game was a side scrolling action game that just had a Batman theme and not really a Batman feel to it, but AA has the feel, the look, and the sound.

Overrated Overview
Why Final Fantasy VII is overrated?
To begin with, let me say that I am a big fan of the Final Fantasy series, and I love VII in particular. Final Fantasy VII was the first in the series of Final Fantasy that I played, and one of the first RPGs I ever played as well, so it left a major impression on me.
However, for all my love of VII, I know that the game is heavily overrated as well. But in someways this overrated state is but justified and overblown.
What was good about Final Fantasy VII? It changed RPGs.
What was bad about Final Fantasy VII? It changed RPGs.
Final Fantasy VII is the game that brought RPGs into the mainstream of gaming. The game also created a ton of clones and copies (some good, some bad). Also popular became the use of giant oversized swords and anime-styled characters.

Marvel Comics owned by Disney...
So Disney has bought Marvel Comics...that was sudden.
My first thought: Will we see a team up between the legendary heros of the Spectacular Spider-Ham and Donald Duck!?

Dissidia Final Fantasy Review
Dissidia Final Fantasy...this is a fanboys dream come true for those who love the Final Fantasy series. DFF is a fighting game that pits eleven heros and eleven villains from the main Final Fantasy series, streaching all the way back to Final Fantasy I all the way forward to Final Fantasy XII. While the game is not perfect, it is a fun and enjoyable game that has alot to offer.

Video Game Review - Ghostbusters
Today on T Time we have:
To sum it up simply: This game is awesome.
To be a little more detailed: This game shows what a proper movie licensed game can be. The story, gameplay, graphics, everything in this game is top notch. I will be reviewing the PS3 version of the game, which is the more realistic version.
