I was almost 11-years-old on Christmas day, 1988, and I still remember getting one of my favorite NES games, Blaster Master by Sunsoft. From the amazing intro, to the original gameplay, Blaster Master was so different than any previous titles I had played.

I love Othello. I first started playing the game on the Atari 2600, as the simple concept was incredibly easy to learn, yet very hard to master.

The search for extraterrestrial life has been the basis of films going back to the alien invasions films of the 1950s. But as technology and science have caught up to the minds of science fiction writers, we, as a species, have never been closer to proving there is life on other planets. That discovery, and the "worst case scenario" of that discovery is the terrifying basis of the new film, Life. Life stars Ryan Reynolds, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Rebecca Ferguson…  Read More
