 Star Wars Review
By Bobby Meade
George Lucas is finally going to end the Star Wars saga with the highly anticipated “Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.” Many, like myself, bought tickets in advance to see the movie mere minutes after midnight.
After dismal failures to recapture what made the first three movies so special, Lucas is trying to go out with a bang. So far, he has released mediocre films with the name Star Wars attached to them.

As much as I love “Star Wars,” I think Jade Empire has a much more compelling story and some improvements its predecessors would be jealous of. After players have customized their character with fighting styles and such, the story is ready to unfold. Click for More.

Only in this journey of our imagination, the KISS army geek can actually play and write music as relevant as his own heroes. Click for More.
