Udon Announces Persona 4 Arena: Official Design Works

Get ready for some more Persona 4 action this July with Udon Entertainment having announced Persona 4 Arena: Official Design Works for US release! A beautiful art book featuring the insane artwork of Ark System Works’ Persona styled fighting game. Visually stunning, I can only imagine what sort of images are hidden within the pages of this art book. This title is currently up for pre-order on Amazon and you can get a sneek-peak over at Udon’s blog. Amazon Udon’s [...]

Run With the Devil – Five Developers That Should Make a Daredevil Game

I signed up for the closed beta for the Marvel Heroes MMO which is coming out on June 4th of this year. The prospect of playing as these characters has gotten me in the mood to revisit some of my favorites from back in the day. When I was a kid, I collected X-Men, Spider-Man, Alpha Flight (Canada, fuck yeah!), Captain America, and a bunch of other stuff. The comic I loved the most however was the Man Without Fear; [...]

Why I Love The Marvel Ultimate Alliance Games (And What I Want In A Sequel)

Unfortunately, most superhero games fall between horrible and meh. There’s something about capturing the diverse powersets and abilities of heroes and villains that development teams can’t quite get right. The earliest game I can recall that bucked this trend was Raven Software’s Marvel Ultimate Alliance. While the sequel trended more towards the meh end of the scale, it still had its charms. With the recent success of the Marvel Studios films and the Marvel NOW! initiative, now is definitely the time for a new entry in the series.

 

[SXSW] The Marvel: House of Ideas Panel in its Entirety

Last week I promised that I’d get the video up of the Marvel House of Ideas Panel from SXSW and I shall deliver.  Sorry for the split in 3 vids, but I showed up after a long drive to the convention center only to find out my camera had been on the entire time. So this is what happens when you split cameras. Anyway, enjoy the panel as if you were there wobbling around erratically.  The key highlight is actually [...]

[Wormlight] SAGA – One of The Best Comics Around

Writer Brian Vaughn and artist Fiona Staples, have created something interesting with SAGA. A familiar background story mixed with familiar elements of another story but with a new coat of paint is how I would describe it. I stumbled upon the first issue a few days after it came out and I was intrigued; after reading the second issue, I was hooked. Recently, I suggested it to my esteemed coworker, Matthew Kim, and after he read an issue, he was hooked too. [...]

[News] Marvel Giving Away Free #1 Issues

Update: Since this story broke, Comixology’s site has been flooded with people trying to download the free issues. For the most part, people haven’t been successful because of the immense strain the servers have been under. In response, Comixology’s CEO, David Steinberger, released this statement earlier today: “…we’re pausing the Marvel Comics #1 promotion for the time being. For those of you that want to take advantage of the offer – you will get your comics! Until we are able to reinstate this [...]

[SXSW] Marvel Shows Up With Noise

Marvel had few reveals at SXSW this year. Last year was their come out party and they’ve followed it up with a bunch of noise. Noise in the form of Project Gamma. Project Gamma is an immersive expansion on top of Marvel’s Unlimited platform of digital trickery. What Project Gamma offers is noise to your comic book experience. To transform the concept of digital print media in to a fully immersive experience is noble. Pointlessly noble. The concept is to [...]

[Rant] DC Kills Again

[Please Note: the above header image was randomly chosen out of a folder on my computer] I’m not going to try and spoil this. I usually don’t write spoiler warnings, but the issue hit stands today. The New York Post ran an article on Monday and DC has a giant splash image pop up on their website, so they can spoil this for you. If you are happening to run in to a comics store though, one of the DC [...]

[News] Dan Kim brings Award-winning Graphic Novel NNN to Hardcover via Kickstarter

I’d really like to explain to you what NNN is about but I myself have no idea. However it’s described as following in the labyrinth style of Mark Z. Danielewski’s House of Leaves and Lewis Carol’s Alice in Wonderland in a beautiful hardcover package, it’s hard not to take interest. ‘NNN’ is a hybrid graphic-novel in the tradition of House of Leaves with additional inspiration drawn from Alice in Wonderland, combining comic, puzzle and novel elements into a single bold [...]
