Deathstroke! Batman! In a fight to the death! Though Rocksteady isn’t helming this project, I can’t help but get a little excited about it. How about you? Also, pre-order at Amazon.com to get Deathstorke as a PLAYABLE character, as well as a $10 credit voucher! – JB

++Review – Injustice: Gods Among Us
While playing Injustice, I can’t help but think about the most recent DC films and television shows, as well as the Marvel Movieverse. I’m not the biggest fan of the Nolan/Bale Batman (though both of those men are masters of their craft), and though Arrow is an excellent show, I’m finding it difficult to really [...]
WayForward Tapped to Develop Smurfs 2 for Ubisoft
We’re always excited to talk about WayForward at ++GG, and the licenses are no different. With the likes Thor, Despicable Me, and Aliens: Infestation (all movie licenses) shining through the typical lackluster license lot, they really know how to excel at piecing together platformers.

This comes as a particular disappointment to gamers awaiting the spectacular looking Star Wars 1313, as it has been canceled. I remain hopeful for the title, as something of [...]
++Review: Bioshock Infinite
Ken Levine is a champion of this medium. I’ve been touting him as such since he wrote the wonderfully memorable Bioshock, released six years ago in 2007; and whether he simply stumbles into his genius accidentally due to excellence in execution, or realizes his fresh, poignant plot devices through an exorcise in intended intellect, it is no matter. No [...]
++Review: Tomb Raider
Words by James Bacon Lara Croft has a long and storied history. As far as famous female video game characters go, she’s second in notoriety only to Princess Peach. Lara debuted during the original PlayStation era to much fanfare, and she was lauded for the style with which she grabbed our attention, and took us on adventure [...]
