Rise Of The Dark Spark Is A Tale Of Three Optimus Primes
We knew Activision’s upcoming Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark combined two Transformers continuities. Now it’s three, as the original Optimus Prime arrives to show the other two how it’s done. Maybe that’s not a good thing. Having recently rewatched the entire original Transformers cartoon series, I’ve come to the realization that Optimus Prime was…

$100 Wolfenstein Panzerhound Edition Comes With A Sweet Dog, No Game
That’s okay, I didn’t want the game anyway. Now gimme that tank dog! See, the Panzerhund Edition (Panzerhund is my favorite new word) is not a collectors edition of Wolfenstein: The New Order. It is a collection of game parephenila, which conveniently comes with an empty steel case where you can put your game once…

Street Fighter‘s Dhalsim Should Lose Those Baby Skulls
In the real world, Dhalsim would have been arrested a long time ago with those skulls around his neck, as the latest Pete Holmes ‘Red Tape’ sketch points out. I hope there’ll be a video with a raging Blanka, because so far these sketches put every single Street Fighter character to shame. Street Fighter Red…

How Much It Would Cost To Be Captain America
We could get off relatively cheap without his vibranium shield, and even with the shield, it would be still nothing compared to building Iron Man—at least according to this financial breakdown of how much being Captain America would cost. Too bad vibranium metal doesn’t exist. It’d be cheaper to equip an army of Captain Americas…

Puzzle Platforming Has Never Looked So… Pleasant
Yes, it’s another quirky indie puzzle platformer. With physics and stuff. But come on, just look at it. I want to frolic amongst the twirly grass things. The Land of Eyas has apparently been languishing on Kickstarter for quite some time, even though it looks, well, not phenomenal, but nice. Simple. Clean. Satisfying on a…
