According to Dead Space 2’s in-game calculator, I’ve wasted spent 30 hours of my life, since late January, dismembering necromorphs (see: wetting myself out of fear) and galavanting across The Sprawl, looking like a bad ass space cowboy with my arsenal of limb-slicing weapons. I simply cannot get enough Dead Space. I loved the first game and I’m humping the leg of the second installment (on my fourth play-through). It’s a shooter, it’s a haunted house, it’s a space adventure and …

Of course, all that prettifying stuff takes …
Rumors of a fourth “Pirates of the Caribbean” film set to sail in 2010 with Johnny Depp will no longer carry the name Gore Verbinski as director. According to Variety, the filmmaker has told Disney and producer Jerry Bruckheimer he won’t be back as to helm the franchise and play with Davey Jones’ crazy tentacle beard.
