I do love me some video games. One of the things I am particularly excited about is Valve’s upcoming Orange Box. The Orange Box looks to be one of the best deals in gaming, plus just amazing, all in a box, that is a sexy shade of orange.

Gametrailers.com has provided many a enjoyable trailer for the gamers delight, and Valve has released many trailers for the upcoming Orange Box, including the game I am most anticipating, Portals.

And while I am looking forward to Portals a lot, I am enjoying the trailers that Valve has been releasing for Team Fortress 2. Team Fortress was always a lot of fun when I was younger. I love playing the engineer, mainly because of the fact that you could build these gigantic turrets. Well Valve has finally released the Engineer movie, and it is hilarious. So if you have time, go watch the Engineer movie, and go read up on the Orange box, which will be amazing.

Enjoy,

Ironman

So excited, and I just can’t hide it.

The Merchant of Death. Awesome. Check out the trailer page, and the Ironman wikipedia page. So a few comments on this film trailer. First, I think the Robert Downey Jr. was a great choice for the role, at least it seems so in this trailer. I’m hoping that he can play the cocky bastard / genius / superhero role well. It looks like he definitely has Stark’s pre-Ironman image down pat. On top of this, it seems like the suit does a great job looking like the Iroman costume from the modern comic books, such as Civil War.Finally I am happy that the movie is located all in California, even though the comic is based in New York. Why? Because California doesn’t get enough love from Marvel :p
Hasta,
