While the game of Risk has been around for decades, I have not played the game until it got the Plants Vs. Zombies makeover. Instead of global domination, the Plants Vs. Zombies version focuses on suburban domination. Who cannot snicker at a suburb named Breakwind Butte? One side of the game board is shaped like a brain and
I remember seeing this movie when it first came out in 1989. My cousin owned the VHS copy with the controversial cover art and we watched and enjoyed it many times. The story remains unchanged and is about a teen-aged mermaid that's in love with the outside world and a prince whom she rescued. Despite her father's orders, she makes a deal with a
Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl is a new game from Atlas in the hardcore Etrian Odyssey series. This title is actually a remake of the first game, with a whole lot of enhancements. For those new to the series (like I was before playing this game), it is a first person dungeon crawler RPG, similar to the rather old school Wizardry games
All of my kids, including my son enjoyed this five episode DVD collection. While my kids are too young to understand crushes and how embarrassing parents can be to teenagers, they still enjoyed the silly slapstick humor. The first episode focuses on Sunil's psychic abilities to help Blythe reunite with her crush to give him his keys back. The re
My son was excited that we finally got a sent a boy friendly bluray to review. While he has not seen the Transformers TV show or movies, my husband and I are familiar with the movies. We were happy to hear the familiar voice of Optimus Prime once again. This movie introduces some new enemies that are threatening Cyberton and the autobots. An al
Disney princesses have been inspiring girls for a long time with their radiant beauty and grace. Sofia has humble beginnings and is adopted into a royal family. She wears a magical amulet that enables her to talk to animals. While we can't relate to speaking with animals, we can understand Sofia's insecurities and we can learn many valuable less
This was my family's first time watching the cartoon series Regular Show. Rigby the Hyperactive raccoon and Mordecai a six-foot tall blue jay, are grounds keepers at a park and find their jobs incredibly dull. They'll often make up games like roadkill bingo to make it fun or avoid their work altogether. Since this is a Halloween themed collection
The buddies are back and this time they're in for a galactic adventure! While my family hasn't seen the previous Disney Buddies movies, my kids quickly fell in love with the talking puppies. The movie begins with Budderball's owner, Bartleby, celebrating his 12th birthday with his friends and grandfather (John Ratzenberger). While on a treasure
Today we got our Grilled Cheesus from http://www.grilledcheesus.com. It carries a $40 price tag, but some of the profits (not sure how much exactly) go toward charities that feed the hungry. Here's what the unit looks like: Operation is pretty straight forward; you have to let it heat up a bit. If you want to have a sandwich with Jesus' face fron
While most Christian films are low budget and show it, Red Line has great special effects, actors and is quite the thrill ride. Unlike other Christian films, this movie is not preachy or tacky. While it does praise virtue, the message it's trying to share is the insecurity of today's subway systems. Red Line is about a terrorist attack on a su
The Enervee™ Score for Video Game Consoles is calculated based on performance per power consumption. Current models range from 4.58 to 36.70 performance (scaled) per kWh.

However...my two daughters really enjoyed My Little Pony Equestria Girls. The story teaches about the power of friendship as Twilight Sparkle ventures out to a new world and tries to reclaim her crown that was stolen from her in the Crystal Empire. The humor is good as Twilight Sparkle tries to adjust to becoming a human and fitting into a new scho
I was recently sent a BluRay of The Extraordinary Adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec While I'm not familiar with the books that this movie is based on, it does make me curious about them. Instead of introducing the main character (or plot) right away the movie starts off slowly by introducing the supporting characters and their roles in this early 1900'
Today Microsoft has revealed its upcoming console, the Xbox One. Unlike the Wii U, it has the full support of Electronic Arts and will be launching with their popular sports games FIFA, NFL, UFC and NBA Live. Forza Motorsport 5 will also be available on the system. Last but not least, Call of Duty: Ghosts (at 60FPS!) will be making an appearance
Every week at my son’s preschool they have a show and tell for each letter of the alphabet. Being the gamer geek that I am, a few of those weeks I sent him to school with a game box. This week was the letter Z so he brought in the CD cover for Zork. Needless to say it stood out from all of the zebras. So looking over my game collection here’s
My seven year old got Cooking Mama for her birthday and we've all been playing that and have been doing cook-offs to see who can make the best dish. While I have years of cooking experience, it doesn't make any difference in this title. It was quite humbling to see that they could make better sandwiches than me. Not to mention my failing at maki
We have owned several Nintendo products going back to the NES. Our house currently has 3 3DS', a DS Lite, A GBA, GBA SP, Gameboy, SNES, N64 and our latest acquisition, a Wii U deluxe. While we didn't pre-order it, we did get it within a couple of weeks of its release. We paid the full $350 price and I'm a little miffed to read they Nintendo is n
I've been running Linux in one form or another on my systems since 2001 when Red Hat 7.1 came out. Since then, I have leaned towards Debian based distributions like Ubuntu or Mint. Linux is best known for being a free operating system alternative, especially for server environments, and a core component of Android. Now that Windows and Mac operatin
The new Wii U with a touchscreen on its controller makes new methods of gameplay possible. Nintendo conitinues on with it's family friendly motto that: gaming together is more fun. On the last day of November, approximately twenty games will arrive that are specially designed for this controller. After getting the chance to play some of these games
While I didn't buy my Vita on launch week, I still paid full price for it a month or so after it's release. I thoroughly enjoyed titles like Rayman Origins and Lumines: Electronic Symphony but have been disappointed in the lackluster choice of games available for the unit. As awesome as the hardware is, without good software, the system is doome
