Stargate Continuum Review

”]Cover of "Stargate: Continuum [Blu-ray]"

The world of science fiction is one that is thoroughly explored and recorded. Vast worlds across countless universes are created and brought to life not just by writers, but also by the faithful and numerous fans of these types of stories. The universe of Stargate is one of those that captivates audiences and takes them on a journey across galaxies, meeting all kinds of creatures, unexplored alien worlds, and adventures. The Stargate series is considered one of science fiction’s more lustrous gems, with its SG-1 franchise alone creating 10 seasons across a span of 10 years. Met with success, this franchise has garnered multiple awards including 9 Primetime Emmy’s, 18 wins from other various awards, and a whopping 82 nominations in its runtime.

In lieu of its popularity, the SG-1 franchise was able to create two movie spin-offs, Stargate: The Ark of Truth, and the more popular Stargate: Continuum which we will be taking a closer look.

Compared to The Ark of Truth, Continuum deserves to be called the true movie of based on the story of SG-1. Continuum has a more cinematic feel, looking like it has a greater budget, has produced a movie with that of better plot, sound, look, and feel; which made the Continuum at par with most motion pictures in cinemas.

The story of Continuum is a gripping and engaging experience that fans applaud. In this chapter of the Stargate universe, Ba’al seeks the destruction of the Stargate program by going back in time to stop its creation. As comrades start to disappear due to the disturbance in time, Colonel Carter, Colonel Mitchell and Doctor Jackson go through a Stargate and find themselves in Earth’s past and the Stargate program never being created. It is up to them to defend this time from Ba’al and the Gouald and restore peace.

If you are a fan of Stargate, or of science fiction in general, this is a movie that deserves your attention as a part of an intriguing journey in the Stargate universe.

Star Wars Clone Wars Game Delayed Until March

It’s bad news for Star Wars fan, as the independent reveals that their latest Lego game, Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars has been further delayed. This was recently expected to be hitting the shelves in mid February, having been postponed from last November, but now will be delayed until around late March.

Shoppers will be able to get their hands of the new game on March 22nd in North America and March 25th in Europe. It will be available in Wii, Xbox 360, PS3 and PC format as well as available on portable gaming formats for the PSP and Nintendo DS.

The game is currently being developed by Traveller’s Tales and will be published – eventually – by LucasArts. The Clone Wars is the sequel video game to LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game and LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy.

Traveller’s Tales are the same team that put together the previous LEGO Star Wars game and the LEGO Indiana Jones series. The company was founded in 1989 and became fully established in 1990. It is based in Knutsford in Cheshire, United Kingdom. Some of their earliest games included Leander, Bram Stoker’s Dracula and Puggsy which were published through Psygnosis. They have also worked with other publishers such as Eidos Interactive, Disney Interactive Studios, Warner Bros and Sega.

“LucasArts continues to set the bar for next-generation family entertainment,” said Darrell Rodriguez, president of LucasArts. “The LEGO Star Wars franchise is a massive hit with fans, bringing in sales of over 20 million units worldwide. We’re thrilled to extend this experience to LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars, delivering the humour and fun players expect from this award winning franchise.”

The LEGO Star Wars III game will include all of the Star Wars characters from the first two seasons of the popular animated TV series, Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Fan-favourite characters from the theatrical Star Wars Saga will also be included. Players of the game can play either as a Jedi or Seperatist and the developers have added a whole range of new character abilities including the squad command, lightsaber slicing, lightsaber jumps, long distance Jedi attacks, Squad command and Grapple Tie-Ups. New battle modes are also included within the game for improved head to head combat and the ability to build your own levels, a feature it is hoped that will make the LEGO video game one of the most popular Star Wars games ever to be released.
