As much crap as BioWare has taken over Mass Effect 3 (and Dragon Age 2 and Star Wars: The Old Republic), we sure as hell pay attention to every little thing they do. Yesterday, producer Mike Gamble and director/producer Casey Hudson tweeted a couple of promotional images from the upcoming Mass Effect 3 DLCs. Continue reading

BioWare is Going “All Hands on Deck” for Next ME3 DLC
I may have been underwhelmed by Mass Effect 3’s Leviathan DLC but I was more underwhelmed by the follow-up Omega DLC. What was expected to be ME3’s equivalent to Lair of the Shadow Broker turned out more like its Overlord. For the third post-launch DLC, BioWare has gone all hands on deck. Most of the production team’s major players from the full game are back to work on this DLC. That includes the writers, composer Sam Hulick and even voice actors from the main cast. Continue reading
Mass Effect 3 Omega DLC Preview
For the low price of only $15 (or 1200 Microsoft points or about 50% more than you paid for the last two ME3 DLCs), you can purchase the latest Mass Effect 3 DLC called Omega. In this DLC, Commander Shepard joins forces with Aria to take back the Omega space station. When BioWare first announced this DLC, they only talked about how the DLC would be twice as long as any other ME3 DLC. In the run up to release, more details were announced. We analyse those details and preview the DLC after the jump. Continue reading

The new NHL season is just a couple of days away after a spectacular seven-game Stanley Cup Final saw Boston lift the Stanley Cup for the first time since 1972.

We compare every team in the league to a song. Continue reading
2010-11 NHL Preview: The Musical
The National Hockey League is gearing up for another season. Last year saw record TV ratings after an epic Canada vs. USA Olympic gold medal hockey game brought the sport closer to mainstream. Following up on our popular 2009-10 NHL preview, we once again preview the 2010-11 by comparing every team in the league to a song. Continue reading
2009-10 NHL Preview: The Musical
The National Hockey League is gearing up for another season. This year, we’ve reached the fifth season since the lockout destroyed chances that the NHL could become a mainstream sport in America. That doesn’t mean that we can’t put together a big preview. Last year, we were going to use a song to preview each team’s season on the radio show but there were some small copyrights issues that would have cost us a lot of money. Doesn’t mean that we can’t do it online. Since, I want this to be a challenge, Carolina fans won’t see “Rock You Like A Hurricane” or any other play on words songs. Continue reading
