Review: Assassin’s Creed: The Fall #1
About three months ago I wrote about a new addition to the Assassin’s Creed franchise in the form of a short comic book series. The Fall, which consists of 3 issues, goes over the life of Daniel Cross and his ancestor, Nikolai Orleov, who is an assassin. Shock and surprise!
Review: Gamma World (Pen and Paper)
Has there ever been an inkling somewhere deep inside you to be a sentient pile of kittens? What about a giant cockroach that starts fires with its mind? OK, how about a radioactive yeti? I am pleased to present Marooners' Rock's first ever pen and paper role playing game review, Gamma World.

Need to get your baseball fix this offseason?
Review: Fatal Fury (PSN)
Back in the 90’s, SNK came out with a little piece of awesome console called the Neo-Geo. One of the advantages the system had over the competition from Nintendo and Sega was that it was arcade quality. The Neo-Geo arcade units basically were big screens, cupboards and controls with one of these systems in side, allowing the cartridges to be swapped out for different games. And every game yo...[Read More]
Review: Two Worlds II (X360)
Developed by Reality Pump (TopWare Interactive), and released by publisher SouthPeak Games, Two Worlds II is a direct sequel to, you guessed it, the 2007 game, Two Worlds. Before reviewing Two Worlds II, however, I feel that something needs to be made clear; the most I played of the first Two Worlds game was the downloadable demo. This will be important later on.

Review: Big Love “Winter”
It’s been 10 long months since we saw Bill Henrickson and his three wives go public about their polygamist lifestyle, and that long break left us wondering what happened to the family and just how great the fallout was. In the first episode of the fifth, and final season, we saw the reactions and how everybody is handling it all.
Review: DC Universe Online (PS3)
I just want to start out by saying that I am not an MMO player. I have never played World of Warcraft. I don’t know how to raid. I am not leetz to your skillz or whatever the deuce you children say. I have tried out a few MMOs and they have all crapped out on me at about a month into it. It just wasn’t interesting for me. So I went into DC Universe Online with some trepidation. I do lo...[Read More]
Review: Solomon Kane
Back when this site was known as World of Meh, I wrote a retrospective of the adaptions of Robert E. Howard’s work. I talked about how they stacked up to their literary counterparts, and basically acted like a big time geek. And now I get to talk about the most recent adaption based on the great writer’s work, his second greatest creation after the legendary Conan. The great Puritan wa...[Read More]
Review: Spartacus: Gods of the Arena “Past Transgressions”
Oh, House of Batiatus, how we’ve missed you so. Ever since the first season of Spartacus: Blood & Sand ended several months ago, I’ve been desperately wanting to return to Capua. Due to the sad news of Spartacus star Andy Whitfield’s cancer, a second season was put on hold. Instead, the writers got crafty and now we have a short prequel season that shows the ludus’ form...[Read More]
Review: The Simpsons’ “Homer, the Father”
Another one to add to the "so-so" pile.
