Pandorum (2009)
Following in the footsteps of space horrors Event Horizon and Sunshine, Pandorum follows the story of a man called Bower having woken from a long statis aboard the massive space hulk “Elysium”. The character Bower is played by Ben Foster of X-Men: The Last Stand fame, but has shown off his acting skills much more notably as the horribly efficient Charlie Prince in the 3:10 to Yuma remake with Christian Bale and Russell Crowe. In this he plays an adequate lead in a role where only fragments of Bower’s past are evident to him at the outset. That, too, is an effect of “Pandorum” – a psychological condition caused by extended stasis in space travel, the symptoms of which include paranoia, madness, violence and extreme hallucinations.
Fallout 3 Vs Fable 2
I was having a chat earlier about games to one of those seasoned gamer types (a good bloke!). He recommended me a bunch including BioShock, Fable 2, Dead Space, Left 4 Dead, Mass Effect and some others which I’ve conveniently forgotten. Certainly enough to be going on with though. In fact I’m not planning on buying any for a couple of weeks (in reality I’ll probably buy some in the sales) but I have some pretty cool ones right now.
