Sometimes Love Needs to be Tested
I haven’t forgotten that today is Valentine’s Day!
Is there anything more romantic than love with a Companion Cube? We have the awesome people at Random Encounters to thank again for this one.
Aquaman, Yes. Robin, Still Don’t Know.
The Aquaman announcement trailer for Injustice: Gods Among Us is the best yet.
I mean, come on, that’s just awesome! Aquaman has been kicking ass in his DCnU series, and now he’s looking to be one of the coolest characters in Injustice: Gods Among Us. He’s the king of Atlantis, baby! Respect that!
Also, still no word on whether or not Robin will be a playbable character. I’m going to hold out hope until we know for sure.
The Wario Rap
No one’s got a strut like Wario!
I throw around words like ‘awesome’ and ‘delightful’ a lot, but this song by the Random Encounters team is definitely both. Funny, witty, and with a snazzy, Wario-infused beat, this is professional video game parody at its best! Plus maybe this song will really get stuck in your head.
Saturday Morning Cartoon – Super Mario Busters
I was a big fan of Saturday Morning Cartoons as a kid, so let’s resurrect that tradition with this amazing web video! The Super Mario Bros. as the Ghostbusters! I cannot stress enough the awesomeness of this video.
Genius, total genius. Give it up to James Farr for such greatness. And he promises there will be a sequel!
6 Cancelled Superhero Video Games That You Will Never Get to Play
Ask any comic book fan what they want in a superhero video game and the answer is simple: a perfect, mind-blowing adaptation that gets all the details right and whispers sweet nothings in our ear. I don’t see why that’s so hard. Sometimes we luck out and somebody makes Batman: Arkham City. But more often than not, we have to wade through the likes of Iron Man and X-O Manowar in Heavy Metal or every single Fantastic Four game ever made.
Well I’m here to break your hearts even more. I’ve searched the Internet and found six superhero video games that would have been awesome, but for one reason or another, ended up on the cutting room floor.
Some of these entries break my heart. I look at the gameplay footage I found and read about some of the ideas the developers had and I wish I could have played these games. Some are one of a kind. Some are so innovative you’ll be left wondering why were aren’t playing some variation already. Join me after the jump for 6 cancelled superhero games that we will never get to play.
