Apocalypse Girls<\/h2>\n

The Girls’ Guide to Surviving the Apocalypse<\/a> is a blogging collective filled with good advice on how to survive the coming apocalypse. Zombies, plague, robot takeover, these girls have got you covered! Mostly tongue in cheek and always great fun to read, there are articles on everything from weapons advice to dating, to what music to listen to when the end of the world comes along. We especially like their Know Your Idols<\/a> series, with survival tips picked up from brilliant women such as Sarah Connor, Ellen Ripley and Tank Girl.<\/p>\n

You know us. We’re the ones who’ll appear out of nowhere in the middle of the apocalypse and shout “Come with us if you want to live,” while looking fabulous. <\/p>\n

THAT New Trailer<\/h2>\n

Mass Effect 3 is coming out in March. My love of the series is no secret<\/a>, and this new trailer increased my fannish glee to dangerous levels. *glances nervously at the calandar to see how many more days there are until March 6th*<\/p>\n

One of the best things about Mass Effect is how much flexibility there is to create the main character, Commander Shepard, any way you want, from her appearence to her choices and actions in the game. Until now Bioware had only used a male version of Shepard in their marketing (affectionately termed ‘BroShep’ by the fans) but in what’s been called the first official story trailer<\/a> for the new game, Bioware have released their first trailer to ever show Commander Shepard as a woman (now often termed ‘FemShep’).<\/p>\n
