Friday the 13th, the 1989 game, is widely considered to be one of the worst video games of all time, certainly one of the worst ever made for the NES. So of course it rates a special edition figurine—Jason Vorhees in the strange purple getup he wore for the final, deeply unsatisfying boss battle.
I get that survival horror is about being afraid, running away from an unstoppable evil. But Jason is almost too damned goofy to really work as a big-bad in a survival horror game. Maybe that's why there hasn't been a Friday the 13th game…
After months of teaser trailers and bizarre dream sequences, we finally get a chance to see Naughty Bear practicing his murderous ways. It's like Friday the 13th, only with teddy bears.

Gears of War 2 is teaming up with Friday the 13th, of all movies, to host nearly two-weeks of giveaways on Xbox Live. I suppose both feature chainsaws, so maybe it makes sense.
