As gaming becomes more a part of our cultural zeitgiest, we have to ask: What are gamers entitled to when they purchase a product?

More Mechwarrior plz

Greetings adventurers, and welcome to this weeks installment of The Surly Nerd! After our prelude, we kick things off in comics where we finally find out what the big Marvel/R.L Stine reveal is! We also break down the upcoming Venom/Spider-man crossover and what to expect from that – as well as a special surprise crossover with DC Comics and Hanna Barbera!

Heading into level 2, we have Nintendo offering up cash bounties to hackers who are able to crack the 3DS firmware – and get into why that’s important for Nintendo moving forward. One of the developers over at Microsoft has a lot of important things to say about 4K gaming’s future, and James gets excited over the biggest ‘Mech announcement in 16 years and won’t shut up about it.

Over in the world of entertainment, we finally are getting an answer to the oldest Blade Runner question…or are we? Deadpool gets a good chunk of talking time as we finally find out why Tim Miller is out and David Leitch is in and close out level 3 with news about what the hell is happening to the DC cinematic universe.

Our epilogue this week is about gamer entitlement – what it means and what we are all actually entitled to when we purchase a product. As always, we appreciate all our adventurers who listen to the show every week and we look forward to your feedback on what we discuss! (info@thesurlynerd.com!)

With online television becoming more important to us, we have to ask – can Hollywood evolve to keep up?

Are Hollywood films dying?

Greetings adventurers, and welcome to this weeks installment of The Surly Nerd! After our prelude, we kick things off in comics where it is the 25 anniversary of IMAGE COMICS and they have one heck of a present in store for us. Marvel is ramping up their new ICEMAN title and it looks to be one cool comic to look forward to. Level one wraps up with some talks about WIZARD WORLD’s expansion and if the massive con-family needs to continue.

Over in games, everything this week is centered around one thing: the celebration of the PLAYSTATION. We have announcements from THE LAST OF US 2 to a huge debate over fighting games. Even games you never cared about like KNACK get some love in this level.

Over in the world of entertainment, ALIENS is out to ruin James’ birthday with their newest announcement. We also break down the top 5 movies of 2016 (according to Google) and get really sassy over the idea that BACK to the FUTURE could be remade. Level 3 winds down with a discussion about diversity in cinema, all thanks to a little movie you might have heard of called ROGUE ONE.

Our epilogue this week is about the evolution of Hollywood, all thanks to paid for television apps such as NETFLIX. As always, we appreciate all our adventurers who listen to the show every week and we look forward to your feedback on what we discuss! (info@thesurlynerd.com!)
