A new video on the
YouTube
reveals Subject Zero, another of the characters in
Mass Effect 2,
BioWare's upcoming RPG sequel. Subject Zero, a self-described "all-powerful
bitch," has an attitude, a snazzy haircut, and a snappin' gyro from what we can
infer from the clip, making her a worthy addition to Shepard's (or anyone's)
team. Thanks

TVShowsOnDVD reports one of the bonuses in the upcoming Blu-Ray release of
season three of Star Trek: The original Series is a code to unlock an Admiral's
uniform in
Star Trek Online, Cryptic's upcoming Trekkie MMORPG. The
Blu-Ray set is to go on sale on December 15. There's no word on whether the
uniform will make your character insane, long known to be the main prerequisite
for the higher ranks at Star Fleet Command. Thanks

We're having a little visit from my pal MrKawfy and his clan today. On the
agenda are cooking out, hanging out, and rocking out, as we may play a little of
the Beatles, with Kawfy's two-year old fronting the group. Someone warn Mylie
Cyrus to watch out for the new kid on the block.
