'Earth to Richard Branson, over...' LogoWatch We at the Vulture Central LogoWatch Soviet have a shameful admission to make this morning: we've been holding off on reporting on the new Virgin Galactic logo in the hope that, in return for our silence, Sir Richard Branson would call and offer us the free space-flight ticket which William Shatner recently turned down.â¦

Tycho:  You might want to see this, or you might not:  I know that Gabriel has sworn off all exposure to the game, which may also be your policy.  Even so, this is the first time they've shown the distaff side of the character creator, so maybe you'll rescind your earlier mandate.  A video with a similar theme popped up over at 1up as well, and it does things a little differently:  I don't like its look at the character creator as well, but the cut they have of the intro is far superior.  If you watched the other one, you're in for a penny, in for a pound:  you should check it out.    There's a lot of other content out today as well  at GameTrailers - but the whole thing is a minefield of spoilers so I'll understand if you hold back.  The intro itself (from the 1up cut) is perfectly executed.  Understand that I am almost the optimal audience for this sort of game, but even so.  I see a lot of game content, and you need to dig pretty deep to generate actual wonder.      I was excited to learn that they got Jack Wall in to do the soundtrack - he's worked with BioWare before, but he also did the soundtrack for Myst IV: Revelations - one of my all-time favorites.

Tycho:  I don't know why I get my hopes up reading shit about "broken street dates" online, I'm perpetually disappointed by the results.  I got a game on the actual ship date five years ago, and it's made me into some kind of Goddamned optimist.  There are scattered reports that people have picked them up, and you may invest your time in this way if you are desperate, but I apologize for wasting your time.  (CW)TB

No tradition this time. No storied rival that dates to the beginning of the 20th century. No ghosts of Christy Mathewson, Rube Marquard, or Enos Slaughter. Not even a Ray Knight in sight.

NEW YORK (Billboard) - There is a temptation to joke that  William Shatner has gone where no artist has gone before with  his new album "Has Been." But the forever "Star Trek" star has,  in fact, previously recorded his inimitable mix of music and  spoken word.

Tycho:   I detest scheduled revelry, and I think my inability to remember these manufactured hullabaloos recommends me as a person.  This perspective is not universally shared.

STARDATE: FUN! The Developers over at Perpetual Entertainment, Inc. are feverishly, frantically, and Ferengingly working on Star Trek Online, a massively multiplayer role-playing game where you too can be a shoulder-pinchin' Vulcan, an annoyed Klingon, or one of those blue guys with mini-satellite dishes sticking out of their heads. Many fans of the series are eagerly awaiting Star Trek Online so they can get just a little bit closer to being an actual officer of the Federation. Me, no; I'm too worried that I'll be the very first subscriber permanently exiled from the entire Star Trek universe.

Tycho:  Gabe keeps coming into the Goddamn office with his Goddamn tales of high adventure, telling me about how there's tokens or some shit in Burning Crusade now, or maybe tiers, and other words I had scoured from my consciousness.  He also says there is hot new five-man content, which initially sounded like pornography.  The comic is correct - I purchased it in a moment of weakness.  As I must often approach you, the cherished reader, to apologize for this or that indiscretion, it may be more appropriate to say that I have moments of strength which are suspended in cowardice and moral decay.

Riverside has been "punk'd" by William Shatner, aka "Star Trek" Capt. James T. Kirk, and Spike TV. Riverside considers itself the "future birthplace" of Capt. Kirk, commander of the starship USS Enterprise in the '60s "Star Trek" series. The town holds an annual TrekFest, which includes a parade with people dressed as "Star Trek" characters and public showings of the "Star Trek" episodes.
