Report: This Will Be Marvel Comics’ New Avengers Team

The silhouettes from the teaser image released earlier this week have been fully revealed, showing off the line-up of the All-New, All-Different Avengers. The biggest surprise? The Ultimate Universe’s Spider-Man—meaning Miles Morales, not Peter Parker—is front and center. The new roster of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes came to light from an apparent leak that made it…

The Gundam Prequel Doesn’t Have Enough Mecha

Hmm… Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin: Blue-Eyed Casval. A prequel to a highly successful, generation-defining SF franchise? That’s never gone wrong before… I would say Gundam is more akin to Star Trek than Star Wars. Both series are more science fiction as opposed to science fantasy. Both deal with topical issues like war, discrimination, evolution,…

Anime’s Latest Catchphrase Leads To Superior Trolling

This is not an endorsement or recommendation for trolling. If anything, it’s simply an explainer to let you know what’s going on. Because trolling is bad poi. What’s “poi”? In Japanese, “poi” (っぽい) means “apparently,” “supposedly,” “seems like,” or even “~ish.” It’s a pretty common and basic word. But many fans are using it without…

Cyborg Old Man Lays Some Smackdown in this Manga

Because seeing a geriatric cyborg badass is kinda cathartic in a way. Inuyashiki is the latest manga from Hiroya Oku, the guy who created Gantz, a manga about people who are transported to a room with a giant black ball in it when they die so they can fight aliens with crazy future-tech weaponry. So,…

What We Want From The New Nintendo NX Console

I was away on holiday in Japan when Nintendo said its first words about its new console, code-named the NX. Actually, I was climbing a mountain. But in the week since, I’ve had plenty of time for serious and not-so-serious conversations about what it might be and what it might do. This post originally appeared…

RONIN Is Real-Time On The Streets, Turn-Based In The Sheets

We’ll get this out of the way now: yes, RONIN owes a lot to Gunpoint, from its core design to its presentation. Now that we’re done with that, let’s move on and just talk about RONIN itself. Evan got the chance to checkit out at PAX, but we couldn’t actually play it ourselves; now we…

Players Add Flyable Planes To Cities: Skylines

I think I’m gonna name my firstborn son “Cities: Skylines modding community.” I pretty much have to, at this point. Steam user Ulysius has released a mod called “Flight Cimulator,” a riff on Microsoft’s classic Flight Simulator series. It lets you hop in the cockpit and fly planes over your city because what genre even…

Dyscourse is one of the most intriguing new games on Steam this week. It’s island survival ala the TV show Lost fused with branching choices out of a Telltale game.

Bloodborne Players Are Killing Themselves In The Most Unlikely Place

It goes without saying that people playing Bloodborne are going to die a lot. It’s a tough game. But to die in the game’s one “safe” area?
