Ben Affleck to Don the Cowl

This is interesting. DC Comics has come out and shocked the world by announcing who would play opposite of Henry Cavill in the sequel to Man of SteelIf the title of the article did not make it obvious; former Daredevil star, Ben Affleck, will don the cowl as Batman. A very intriguing casting choice but with recent success in The Town and Argo; this choice has some solid footing.

Grand Theft Auto Online Reveals a Trailer

One of the last great games for this current console generation released their multiplayer trailer. No, I’m not talking about Call of Duty: Ghosts, although they did have a nice reveal yesterday. I’m talking about the online component for Grand Theft Auto V. GTA multiplayer is an interesting grab bag of games and ideas and it will continue in the next iteration but on a grander scale. The trailer throws a lot of information at you; but ultimately all you have to think about is all the on-the-fly shenanigans the game will allow you to have.

I am curious how persistent the world is.

Skydive past the jump to watch the trailer.

Wolf Among Us Trailer Bites Down

While everyone anticipates the continued story of Clementine in season two of Telltale Game’s The Walking Dead, they were busy working on another game to fill the void. Based on the Vertigo Comics series, Fables, Telltale plans to release Wolf Among Us soon.

The game will feature Bigby Wolf as the main character in a pre-Fables setting that will allow us to see some of favorite characters that are not around anymore. Bigby plays the noir detective archetype as the sheriff of Fabletown. The game looks to feature a lot of story, murder, and suspense.

Huff and puff your way past the jump to watch the first trailer.

Rocket Raccoon Ninja’d

Without much surprise, a few seconds of the Guardians of the Galaxy video shown at San Diego Comic Con has appeared on the internet. While the video is continually taken down; it is not that difficult to track it down (so I’ll leave that up to you).

But what I do have is a GIF that will keep me excited for the next year until the movie comes out.
