Okay, I'm going to admit that this whole Indie Games experiment of mine hasn't exactly gone swimmingly. On average, only about one of every five games I've bought has resembled something playable. But like the weird baby cow thing in Eraserhead, I refuse to be silenced. The above is from: http://www.earth-2.net/reviews/v/dw-does-indie-03.php

It's lucky episode seven, and the Heroes hit the part where things get, in their words, "pretty fucking awesome." With episodes like "Surprise," "Innocence," "Phases," and "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered," it is suggested that the ratings be cranked to 11 for the awesomeness that happens within. Why isn't Buffy's PMS-evil-dar working? Is Oz incredibly high, or just superchill from living on the Hellmouth? Join Hannah and Preston this week to find out!

The four-color fellas return to pay tribute to the greatest horror comic series of all time by covering issues #16-19 of Tomb of Dracula and the first crossover issue: Werewolf by Night #15. Through it all, they discuss the strange names of the stories, mass transportation vampire children stories, and tons of pimp-smacking.

In a very special edition of Tranquil Tirades, the guys tackle their first Uwe Boll film: House of the Dead. It's really freaking dull, so most of the episode is spent discussing late 90s one-hit wonders, tortilla cosplay, and Gumby. You'll thank us later.

Virus-infected computers, snobby IT guys, and YouTube posters get the guys bleeping bleep right out of the gate.

It's the second installment of Dread Reel-ief, and the boys from the Commonwealth cover the 1994 Jim Carrey vehicle, The Mask! "But guys," you say, "The Mask isn't a horror film." "You're right, but listen here, bucko! This here is a mini-podcast dedicated to adaptations of horror comics. Not all of them are going to be horror films." Boom! Swerved ya!

The Rumbling Hearts review continues with Steph and Kellen's views on "Moving On," "Betrayed by Love," "Lead Astray," and "Wishing," wherein the passage of time is barely shown, characters go crazy, and a certain someone's fate is revealed.

The boys look back at the high and low points of the first season, and Ian puts together all of the statistics they have been collecting so far - which can only mean one thing: new jingle! Plus, a British Vicar uses a number of fake identities to threaten Ian with violence, Dave is forced to sing his own praises, and they both finally agree that "The Web" is a load of old cobblers.
