San Andreas sees Mother Nature show just how destructive she can be and Dwayne Johnson proving that he is not the man she wants to pick a fight with. As expected, San Andreas is a huge disaster movie that delivers plenty of spectacle but could it surprise me by actually being a good…

Batman Arkham Knight (MCM London Comic Con, May 2015)
May is always a difficult time for press monkeys like myself at conventions. At least, I think so. It’s in that odd time slot were the spring splurge is out, reviewed and most of the time patched. Years past is was “DMC: Devil May Cry” and “Bioshock Infinite” while this…

ESports is a Sport so SHUT UP!
Now I have you attention from that oh-so catchy title, it is time to strap yourselves in because we are here for the long haul and I’d rather just add to the debate rather then add to the yelling. So if all you read was the title and that pissed…
