Via GeekTyrant. I have a lot of 5th edition Vampire: the Masquerade in hardback already, and the $40 deal is… really actually pretty good, honestly. Likewise the $18 deal, which skips the physical rewards entirely. They’re just the card game anyway, and I don’t play card games anymore.
Check it out.
No… no, not really: it’s the new Underworld flick. Hunter: The Reckoning is just what they’re (allegedly) ripping off this go-round.

Although maybe that’s going to be a Hunter/Technocracy rip-off*.
Look, I may or may not have said some unkind things about White Wolf’s various Noun: The Gerund RPGs series in the past, but the truth is that I still have about a shelf and a half of their books – and having watched some of the Underworld flicks I am forced to admit that I muttered Man, but they ripped off the WoD something fierce in these at various points of the films. In other words, I probably have a slightly more jaundiced view about who’s being ripped off here than, say, Tycho did back in 2003.
And being more jaundiced than Tycho takes skill.

It’s not that I particularly object to the way that Hollywood keeps mining The World of Darkness
Will Smith has attached himself to star in and produce The Legend Of Cain, an epic re-telling of the Biblical sibling tale, this time with a vampiric twist.
…but maybe they could consider, you know, paying royalties and stuff?
