Hal Jordan Goes Sinestro Corps in New Injustice Story Trailer
Injustice: Gods Among Us is hitting us with all sorts of trailers recently, even though none of them reveal Robin to be in the game. However, this new trailer gives us a peek at the story and confirmation that Hawkgirl will probably be a character, and that Green Lantern is going to get his hands on a yellow ring at some point.
That actually looks pretty damn cool. DC superheroes in a police state, Batman a fugitive in a world where Superman and Wonder Woman rule with an iron fist. I’m starting to think that the story is going to be far better than the mediocre Mortal Kombat-lite fighting game.
Waluigi is the Worst Video Game Character Ever
Need I say more?
Good times with animation by KawaiiPiranha. It’s just a bit of youtube silliness I found. Because we all deserve some silliness in our lives.
And if you don’t believe me about Waluigi, then take a gander at this Dorkly classic.
Case closed.
New Injustice Video Game Trailer; Still No Robin
Hey guys, it’s going to be a slightly slow week. I had a death in the family and went out to attend the services, so everything’s a little backed up. I’m gonna try to get the Hench-Sized Reviews done on time Saturday, but they may be pushed back until Sunday. Until then, enjoy this fun little trailer for Injustice: Gods Among Us. They reveal Lex Luthor as a playable character, but still no Robin. The bastards.
Also, certain nerd movie sources are claiming that the Justice League movie will feature a cast of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and the Flash, with possible cameos by Aquaman and Martian Manhunter. That’s almost exactly what I predicted. So go me!
6 Random Things to Make Into New Pokemon
As of this writing, there are 649 pokemon. That means several artists and game designers sat down and thought up 649 individual little critters to put into all the Pokemon games, having to make them all unique and interesting in their own right. And with the new Pokemon X and Pokemon Y coming out this Fall, that means there are another 100+ pokemon still to be announced to fill those games. How do they do it? How do they design so many different pokemon?
The answer is easy: they cheat!
If you look over your standard Pokedex, you’ll see that Pokemon games are filled with normal animals that have been given a weird, cartoony twist. There are cows, snakes, giraffes, turtles, pigs, bats, monkeys, scorpions, camels and more. And the designers didn’t stop at animals. There are also a lot of inanimate object pokemon. There are gears, magnets, ice cream cones, balloons and chandeliers. There is even a pokemon that is just a giant, sentient, bag of garbage!
And you better believe I used him in my party!
So for the new games, I’ve decided to help Nintendo out in the creative department. I’ve looked over all 649 pokemon and have found some holes that need to be filled. Here are my six suggestions for what they can use to make the next pokemon!
A Little Music Parody to Start the Morning
Sung to the tune of ‘Thrift Shop’ by Macklemore.
I think that’s a fair and accurate representation of what it’s like to go video game shopping these days. The parody was made by Tim and Alfredo from IGN Entertainment.
