At the recent Huw Millington at London’s Toy Fair, someone caught this image of Lord of the Rings based Lego Minifigs. They look awesome! I love me some minifigs!

Mass Effect 3: Mulitplayer Trailer.

What? Did I type that right? Multiplayer in Mass Effect? Is Bioware and EA just throwing things into the game now, dumping time money and energy into parts of the game … that are lame?

Here’s the newest trailer for the Multiplayer , what do you think?

Doctor Who: Built a TARDIS? She did!

Built your own yet? I think it’s time…

Doctor Who: Sophia Myles!

Rumors have been swirling for a few days now, what would this tweet from Doctor Who main-man Steven Moffat mean? Could Sophia Myles who played Madame de Pompadour in the ”The Girl in the Fireplace” episode be returning? Could she be the next companion?

I have no idea – but be sure to follow them both on twitter, and stay tuned for more news – soooon (I hope)!

Doctor Who: New Executive Producer!

Looks like there’s some action in some of the management of Doctor Who, as Caroline Skinner (who produced The Fades) is the new executive producer for Doctor Who, taking the reigns from Beth Willis and Piers Wenger.

There’s a great interview and more information over at i09.com, check it out!

Game of Thrones: Season 2!

Huzzah! Fantastic news from HBO (finally), Season 2 of Game of Thrones will return Sunday, April 1st at 9pm EST. Ten episodes (like Season 1) are all lined up, waiting for Winter. In theory, this season should follow along with the second book in the series, entitled A Clash of Kings. I can’t wait to see how they portray the books! Lots to cover!!

SWTOR: Rise of the Rakghouls!

On January 17th we’ll be getting out first major Star Wars: The Old Republic game content update! How awesome is that? You can read the full article over at AskAJedi.com, but for now, peep out this trailer!

Looks like it’ll be a dark scary time!

The Reckoning & Mass Effect 3 Promotion!

Looks like Kingdoms of Amalur: The Reckoning, which launches on 2/7/12 has a crossover going with our favorite game universe of Mass Effect. If you download the demo of The Reckoning on 1/17/12 (or anytime I assume) and complete it, you’ll unlock two items for Mass Effect 3.

• Exclusive Todd McFarlane-designed Reckoner Knight Armor for Mass Effect 3 (install the demo)
• The Powerful Chakram Launcher for Mass Effect 3 (complete the demo)

Read the complete faq here, and check out some interesting screenshots (and of course read more about the Reckoning!)!

SWTOR: Magenta Crystal!

So you have a lightsaber, good job! Now are you tired of the blue/green/orange/yellow/red crystals? Well, then its time for you to head over to AskaJedi.com and follow the steps in order to get a Magenta Crystal! It’s a bigger task than just killing a single mob – so under take at your discretion!

I’m hoping more different colors filter their way down the levels, but I’ll be happy with some different ones at 50!

What color are you using? Which is your favorite?

SWTOR: Reverse Engineering!

If you’ve crafted at all while playing Star Wars: The Old Republic you are fully aware of that little ‘Reverse Engineer’ icon in your inventory. I’m sure you’ve clicked on it a few times, and maybe even used it to unlock Blue or Purple versions of your crafted items – I have to, but its so damn frustrating at the same time!

Over on the swtor.com forums, there is a fantastic write up about reverse engineering, be sure to check this out!

Good luck!
