Wii Game Review: Goldeneye
Playing as Oddjob is soooo NOT cheating.
by Elliott Schuhardt, Games Editor
Gameplay
Bond is back! Well, sort of. Goldeneye returns in name only with a brand new adventure featuring everyone’s favorite MI6 agent. Fans of the original will see the immediate changes in the new Wii version. Pierce Brosnan has been replaced by the current box-office Bond, Daniel Craig. Not only that, many of the other roles throughout the film have been given current updates as well. Since the new Bond films feature a heavier focus on action and far less swagger, you can expect this game to offer up the same type of experience.

DVD Review: Legends of the Superheroes
Biff!
Holy Pop Icons, Batman!
In 1966 Adam West and Burt Ward began their 120 episodes of Batman on television. Cancelled after only three seasons, Batman became an icon whose camp pop culture has still not lost its lustre even now over forty years later. From the Batusi to “Holy [something], Batman!” the show’s tropes will live forever.
Getting the show on disc has proved problematic, as legal troubles have thus far prevented a DVD release. We can get the Batman Movie from 1966 on DVD, but that’s all the 60s Batman we could get. …Until Now.
