Regardless of critic reviews or a fandom tearing itself apart over Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice ’s many artistic choices, we’ll soon be getting a full-fledged Justice League movie. Two of them, in fact. Short of a meteor hitting DC headquarters, there’s no stopping it at this stage; we’ve seen artwork, been introduced to each of the members, and denying us the chance to see Jason Mamoa’s Aquaman at this stage would be criminal. He looks like a be
This one is simpler, because the format means that they’ll have to be different. The DCEU Justice League is looking to be inspired purely from the comics – a coming-together of all the most iconic members who’ll most likely be tangling with big-name villains in the way we’ve come to expect from superhero movies. One big plot, followed by a one big CGI fight sc
The same goes for League of Legends, bringing it back into the discussion, and they have shown no sign of ever stopping this practice. They release a new champion every week, some of which cost money to play, and many of which are “worth,” leaving the players who don’t have the money behind. I was this close to trying out Orcs Must Die: Unchained before I found out that it uses the League-of-Legends-style system for hero purchasing. These games are no better than the cable company. In fact, they may be worse. Imagine if every week, Comcast started a new channel with new and amazing shows, but made you pay a new fee if you wanted to experience it.
None of these point to a Justice League by themselves, but switched-on fans will notice a few small, yet crucial bits of information. A future newspaper confirms the existence of Wayne Enterprises. Barry mentions off-hand that a test pilot from Ferris Aircraft has gone missing, Rip Hunter makes note of “Dark Knights” and “Men of Steel”, and Jay Garrick confirms the existence of both Atlantis and Aquaman on his Earth. Given that Earth-2 has all of the same characters who live only slightly divergent lives, it’s perfectly reasonable to assume that Atlantis exists on Earth-1 – it’s just still beneath the wa
Now, let’s not get carried away. Making money is a company’s goal, and there’s nothing wrong with that. The issue is, this benefits the company at the expense of the player. Consider this: what’s to stop Plants vs. Zombies 2 from perpetually releasing new plants while balancing the zombies and expansions in a way that necessitates their purchase, as they already have? This turns the game into an infinite cash-cow that will likely make more money than if they charged a $60 flat fee by grinding it out of players who want a full gaming experience.
After being named the Game of the Year at the 2015 Game Developers Conference, it looks like Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor may be getting a Game of the Year edition. While there’s not yet any official word on the edition, Warner Bros. did submit the game for a Game of the Year classification to the Australian Classification Bo
Funko Pop! has made collectible action figures for just about everything in pop culture, and now the company has brought the heroes from Overwatch to life. This Tracer action figure features her classic skin, complete with orange and white sunglasses. The vinyl collectible stands 3.75″ tall and will fit comfortably next to your computer monitor or gaming console. Once you click through to Amazon, scroll down to see the other Overwatch heroes that Funko Pop! has created figures for. “Cute” probably isn’t the first word you’d think of when Reaper or Widowmaker come to mind, and yet, somehow, they pull it
And if an addicting game is your thing, well, you’re in luck as Legend of Solgard has a staggering amount of content. The game’s campaign launches with four different worlds each containing forty levels, one boss, and one mini-boss. That’s just the game’s campaign mode; the game also includes modes called Treasure Caves , Bounties , Guild Bosses , and Hero Arena . While the Treasure Caves and Bounties just serve as places where you can farm Sun Gems (gems that you use with coins to level up each of your factions), chests, and coins, the Hero Arena introduces PvP to the game. The more players you square-off against and come out victorious, the higher your ranking on the Hero Arena ‘s leaderboards will go and the more in-moba game advanced tactics goodies will be gifted to you. Similarly, the game’s Guild Bosses mode allows you to team up with other players to cooperatively face some of the game’s most challenging bosses in exchange for, you guessed, more in-game good
We also received confirmation this week from NetherRealm Studios that long-time Mortal Kombat veteral Liu Kang will be joining the Mortal Kombat X roster. With just a few weeks left until release, the Mortal Kombat developer is releasing information at a rapid rate, so we’re sure to see even more reveals and rumors hit the streets s
In the midst of this landscape comes Legend of Solgard , a new free-to-play mobile game from Candy Crush publisher King. Developed as Snowprint Studio’s inaugural title, Legends of Solgard serves as a puzzle turn-based strategy game with plenty of RPG elements. Inspired by Nordic folklore, the game puts the player in control of Embla, a descendant of ancient warriors, in her quest to stop Máni, the evil moon god, from triggering Ragnarok, otherwise known as the Norse apocaly
