Star Wars Pinball: The Force Awakens Review

Two new tables are set to hit Zen Studios Pinball FX2 on January 12th, but Zen hooked Marooners’ Rock up with an early access Steam code, allowing us to bring you a review before the tables become available. For the purpose of having the same gameplay experience as most readers I will not be using my pinball cabinet setup for the majority of this review, though I will have a minor aside at t...[Read More]

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Review

Over the years, the Star Wars movies have either created majestic memories for someone, or been a jumbled mess, depending on your perspective. George Lucas created the best kind of magic with the original Star Wars trilogy, but then, for some odd reason, felt like messing with his own work, between Special Edition treatments with questionable decisions (like the whole “NOOOO” thing in ...[Read More]

Canceled Star Wars Game May Be Getting the “Darth Vader” Treatment

By that, I mean a second chance like how Anakin was “rebuilt” after the events of 3… oh, you know what I’m talking about. Back in 2012, fans were shown prototype footage of a new starts game named Star Wars: 1313. Unfortunately, Disney closed LucasArts in 2013, the following year.

Review: Pinball FX2: Star Wars DLC (XBLA)

I’ll admit here right at the start of this review that I don’t play many Pinball games, since I tend to not do well, though I do remember playing games such as Sonic Spinball on the Sega Genesis and Pokemon Pinball on the Gameboy Color when growing up. Those were the days, right? Now as we all know it’s 2013 and Zen Studios has more DLC for us to play, which releases tomorrow. Yo...[Read More]

Midichlorian Black Market

Last night, as my wife and I were preparing to enter the sovereign realm of Morpheus, the anthropomorphic personification of dreams, I voiced a thought. I turned to her and said, “You know why Star Wars is definitively not science fiction? The time between the Old Republic era and the Trilogy era was what…3-6 thousand years? Why was there absolutely NO technological advancement in a pe...[Read More]

Review: The Old Republic: Revan

The Old Republic:  Revan, by Drew Karpyshyn, was one of the most highly anticipated Star Wars novels of the year.  It came out just in time (on my birthday, in fact) to create hype for The Old Republic, an MMORPG set to be released on December 20 of this year.  Revan, although a great read, failed to meet my expectations and, sadly, was a disappointment.

Review: Force FX Lightsabers (Detachable Blade)

If I could have one wish, it would be to have a fully functional lightsaber of my own design and specifications. Yes, there’s world peace, an end to hunger and homelessness, and the general advancement of humanity…but I REALLY want a lightsaber, y’know? Unfortunately, we do not have the technology now to produce such a wonderful thing. We do, however, have the technology to produ...[Read More]
