Peter Petrelli, Hiro Nakamura Hit Sydney, Sign DVDs

2:30PM Logan Booker | Otherwise known in real life as Milo Ventimiglia and Masi Oka, the pair will be at the Galeries Victoria JB Hi-Fi in Sydney on September 2, from 1:15PM to 2:45PM. If your love of Heroes demands you to not only pick up the Season 2 DVD pack minus the DVDs, but get the cover signed by the aforementioned personalities, Sept 2 will be like a second Christmas. Personally, I found the second season all over the place (writer’s strike probably didn’t help). David Anders does a wicked UK accent though. Press release with extensive details, after the jump.

Heroes’ Producer to Talk at GDC

12:00AM Brian Crecente | Jamil Moledina, the executive director of the annual Game Developers Conference, kicked off his GDC blog last night by announcing that Jesse Alexander, the executive producer of TV show Heroes, will be giving a talk on creating each season of the show. How Heroes Are Made: A Collaborative Approach to Serialised Content in a Transmedia World will look at how Alexander uses game development processes to manage the writing on Heroes. Sounds pretty interesting. Moledina also unveiled in his blog that Tim Bennison and Eric Holmes will be talking about their upcoming game Prototype and how they are trying to produce gameplay that mimics true behavior. Sounds like this GDC will be as much a must see as ever year’s is. Director’s Cut: Save the Cheerleader! [GDC Director's Cut] More »

Heroes Star So Excited About Dragon Ball Movie

10:40PM Brian Ashcraft | So against the wishes of humanity, the Dragon Ball Z movie pushes forward. While we’re less than thrilled, Heroes‘ actor James Kyson Lee is totally jazzed. While at the Pacific Media Expo in Los Angeles, Lee said that he’s auditioning for the role of Yamcha in Fox’s live-action Dragon Ball Z movie. He gives the DBZ script one big Goku-style kamehameha and says the movie should get a 2010 release. That means the Dragon Ball is safe! For now.

Heroes Cop Just Not Condemned Enough

5:40AM Mark Wilson | You may know Greg Grunberg as the mind-reading cop from, NBC’s Heroes, but you may also know Greg Grunberg as the protagonist from Condemned: Criminal Origins. So now that he’s on a geek-hit TV show, you’d think he’d be a hot commodity for Condemned 2: Bloodshot. But you’d think wrong. From Monolith’s Dave Hasle: We struggled with this one somewhat. Greg was a pleasure to work with, and he was willing to make the time to work with us on Condemned 2, but we felt we wanted a darker, edgier tone…We loved Greg’s work on Condemned; Criminal Origins and found him to be a great voice talent as well as a fantastic person to work with. It was purely a directional choice. Purely directional, aye? Or was it that you didn’t like Mr. Grunberg reading your mind? GAMES: Condemned 2: Bloodshot [via gamelife] More »
