Those who’ve activated Mass Effect 2’s in-game DLC portal aka Cerberus Network will find a new toy to download today; the Arc Projector.
“The Arc Projector ionizes targets with a non-visible laser to ready them for a high-voltage electrical attack,” explains the official game site, apparently resulting in a Raiders of the Lost Ark flashback, “As the lightning-like bolt hits its first target, a sophisticated auto-targeting system paints succeeding targets with the ionization laser, allowing the electricity to take the path of least resistance and arc between them.”
“An entire enemy strike team can be shocked to death with a few pulls of the trigger. Careful aiming will also allow the user to arc shots to nearby explosives as well.”
More free content — the Firewalker DLC — is expected later in the month.

Battlestar Galactica Online, a browser-based MMO based on the reimagined tv series, has been announced.
The “tactical space combat and adventure” game from Bigpoint, co-developed by Unity, offers mission-based gameplay and allows players to play as both humans and cylons, and, with its “beautiful 3d graphics and innovative game mechanics,” is looking to create a new standard in browser-based games.
Assets from the series’ production have been made available to the developers, so expect those Vipers and Raiders look authentic as the game launches this fall.

Burt Gummer lives! I've never grown tired of the Tremors franchise even as it got sillier and sillier. The chance to dig in to the TV show was just as rewarding. Only those who don't care about video quality need apply though. On my 52 inch screen this looked pretty grainy. And there aren't any real special features to speak of here. Just all 13 episodes of worm killing, graboid grabbin, ass blastin fun. Christopher Lloyd has a fun turn as a scientist turned desert rat and there's some enjoyable tension between cast members but, like the sequels, the show never quite caught the magic of the original film.

As hordes of actors attempt to stave off aging, we watch on, amused. It's hard not to laugh or snicker when a person who has clearly had plastic surgery claims that their face is natural. They might as well claim to be a relative of Stretch Armstrong, trying to feed us bull that their skin doesn't fall and change no matter how old they get, that their chin was always that shape, their lips always that puffy, their eyebrows always that arched.Filed under: Casting, Celebrities and Controversy
