I decided to hop onto this “here, have some music you probably don’t like” blog trend. So from now on, when I get bored of course, I will post five random albums as they come up on my mp3 player. They will most likely have nothing in common or make any sense together. You won’t care, they are free.
Todays albums are;
Yeah I’m dropping the “Wednesday” from the title ’cause these things never get written on Wednesdays anyway. As usual, my timing is impeccable, because this week was honestly on the lame side. I know I haven’t written one of these in a while, but I’m still basically a Marvel fanboy, so it only seems appropriate to kick off my first blog back with two of the characters the company was built on.

Posted under Game Reviews, Games, The MaelstROMSo I guess Superboy Prime punched another wall ’cause I’m back from the dead, even if it took a little longer than expected.
With B.A. in hand and too much WoW on my brain, I think I’m finally ready to return to this space and shit on more comics that fandom holds dear (is it any coincidence that I’m coming back right before Grant Morrison’s Final Crisis starts? Hmm). Luckily faithful WPL readers, you haven’t really missed much these last eight months, although I hope you read Messiah CompleX and have been keeping up with the lil’ Green Lantern rip-off that could, Nova.
Right now I’m planning to start reviews back up next week. If I get really inspired I may even run down some of the shit that happened since last August, but I make no promises.

Game: Twin Cobra
System: Genesis
Genre: Vertical Scrolling Shooter
Developer: GRC
Year: 1991
Country:
The beautiful thing about the shoot-em-up genre is how simple these games really are at the core, but how awesome some of them end up being in execution. Some just seem to have a x-factor to them that separates them from the (rather large) pack of other more average scrolling shooters. Twin Cobra is one of those games that doesn’t separate itself from the pack. In fact, Twin Cobra may as well be a microcosmical representation of the pack itself.
