Dead Rising 2

Just a few weeks back on the podcast, we were discussing the rumors of Dead Rising 2. And now we have a new official trailer! This time we have a new lead character, Chuck Greene,  and a new location, Fortune City. And apparently some new and creative ways to use weapons too; IE: the 2 chainsaws attached to  a motorcycle -  looks definitely appealing. You can check out our thoughts on the first game for both the Xbox 360 and the Wii.

Marvel vs. Capcom 2

A few episodes ago, a couple of the guys had a chance to discuss Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe. Well now it looks like we’re getting a sequel this summer to the Marvel vs. Capcom franchise. I didn’t have a chance to check out the original Marvel vs. Capcom, and to be honest after Street Fighter IV I’m not sure how excited I am about this one, but I’ll certainly give this one a run up the flag poll.

Batman: Arkham Asylum – Harley Quinn Trailer

As the new Batman: Arkham Asylum game gets closer to launch, we’re seeing some new character videos coming out providing us some more insight into the game. I can’t wait to get my hands on this as it certainly has the potential to be great.

Disturbing Strokes

And finally, I leave you with a bit of a different take on a classic sitcom. It always fascinates me how much of an impact the musical score can have to a visual medium. It pretty much speaks for itself so take a peek…

Ok, in case you have an urge to hear the original, I give you Dave Chappelle, John Mayer and Questlove!

Just a reminder that there tend to be spoilers in our discussions. Feel free to leave feedback in the comments section.

Download Episode 4 – I Pity the Fool!!

Last night, after we recorded the new podcast, we got discussing some of the upcoming games that we’re looking forward to and the new Batman game, Arkham Asylum, came up. Oh lookie, a trailer for your viewing pleasure…

Batman is a franchise that hasn’t had the greatest history when it comes to  video games. However I’m really looking forward to this game. Its got a great look to it and seems to be going for a similar gritty feel that the latest movies have employed. Plus its got Mark Hamill returning to voice the Joker! Anyone else looking forward to this?
