Antiviral review - Brandon Cronenberg's first work
Let me begin this Antiviral review by stating that, whenever the son of an artist decides to make his first move into the media-world of his parent, many thorny issues may arise. Some critics claim the so called son art is a cancer for the art industry. They caution those who wish to follow their parent's footsteps make an effort to do so without using the advantage of their celebrity [...]

Kiefer Sutherland is Snake in MGS 5
During Konami's pre-E3 conference, the Japanese software house revealed that Kiefer Sutherland is Snake, or rather, will be voicing him in Metal Gear Solid 5. As the game takes place in 1984, at that time Snake was 49 years old - as such, Kiefer Sutherland was a perfect match.

Black Mesa: Half Life torna più splendente che mai
Da quando le riserve di potenza computazionale non rappresentano più un serio problema per i moderni personal computer, il rendering estremo ha forse involontariamente filtrato quel genere di emozioni che titoli come il primo Half-Life hanno saputo iniettarci in endovena? E' un tarlo del dubbio che si annida profondo, considerando quelli che, commercialmente parlando, sono gli esponenti moderni [...]

Torchlight II, la forza delle idee
Per creare qualcosa di grandioso, alle volte, bisogna prima distruggere qualcosa di simile maestosità: un ragionamento estremo che ritrova più volte riscontro nella quotidianità, anche se si parla di grandi colossi videoludici. Era il primo agosto del 2005 quando, tra lo sconforto generale dei fan, veniva annunciata la chiusura degli studi Blizzard North, noti tra le giovani fila di nerd per [...]

The Walking Dead – una terza stagione di alti e bassi
La terza stagione di “The Walking Dead”, che vede Glen Mazzara prendere il ruolo di principale showrunner, è caratterizzata da una prima parte dai ritmi veloci, per certi versi quasi forsennati, ed una seconda piuttosto lenta.

Injustice: Gods Among Us, botte da supereroi
Quando si parla di picchiaduro è facile concatenare a raffica discussioni su di uno StreetFighter, un Tekken, un Soul Calibur od un King of Fighter a caso. Negli ultimi anni, o anche decadi, se volete, certi titoli hanno dominato i cabinati ed i salotti infiammando le amicizie a suon di mezze lune più pugno. Ultimamente il mercato, grazie anche all’ormai immensa rete di giocatori che si [...]

The Byzantium trailer gives hope to the vampire genre
In the post-Twilight era, vampires sparkle in sunlight, sadly enough. Hope comes from a Neil Jordan (director of Interview with the vampire) movie for people like me, horror fans that actually like vampires but that simply can't stand the ones portrayed on screens in the last 10 years. The movie i'm talking about is Byzantium, already appreciated by both critics and audience in lots of festivals, [...]

Lo Sherlock Holmes del nuovo millennio
Di serie tv se ne vedono in numero sempre crescente, ma quante di queste sono veramente originali, intriganti, accattivanti e coinvolgenti? Ben poche, obiettivamente. Alcune proseguono per i loro dieci o dodici episodi, regalandoci qualche interessante sequenza e strappandoci qualche risata, ma senza entrare in maniera permanente nella nostra memoria. Sherlock, la creatura di Arthur Conan Doyle, [...]
